I’ve once been told my mind’s A very scary place to be. But I will give you welcome, And I will leave my key. Don’t hesitate to enter; I love the company. Take a look inside my mind And see what all I see. If you take a moment And look deeper than before, You… Continue reading My Mind
Mom had been halfway insane when she’d seen the bandages. She’d helped take the ones of my hands, but I’d convinced her that my arm was still too sore for the bandage to be removed. I’d unwrapped it privately; it didn’t look as sickening as I’d expected. The weekend had passed quietly--I’d had… Continue reading Forthcoming, Chapter Twenty-Five: Home
Anyone else have a hard time getting motivated when it’s cold out? We’ve been hit with a significant amount of snow where I live. I heard somewhere that it was the most we’ve gotten in 10 years....and I believe it! Snowy days are made for cuddling up with a cup of tea. Not being productive.… Continue reading A Note on Snow
Around this time every year, I start to reach my fill of winter. The cold is no longer cozy; the snow is no longer magical. So I thought this month, I'd live a bit vicariously and share photos that represent what I'm eagerly awaiting with warmer temperatures.

I actually wrote this waaaay back as a freshman in high school. And I have literally no idea where I got the inspiration for it. It's a very romantic sort of poem, and as a freshman I was still in my super shy, gawky phase. I tended to write poems based more on characters though--getting… Continue reading As Stars Fall
The siren woke him up. It screeched endlessly, and the emergency lights in his house blinked on and off, on and off. “I’m coming!” Armin shouted, rolling onto the floor and running to the door. He looked outside his window and saw the tram pulled up to his house. Its stop at his doorstep… Continue reading Plugged In, Chapter Two: The Unfortunate Drafter
Good news.... after last week, I've officially sent a query letter. First time in... wow, probably at least two years. My resolution to send one each month is off to a decent start. Bad news.... here lately, I've had trouble getting out of bed. Getting the day started. Getting stuff done. My resolution to become… Continue reading Some Good News, Some Bad News… and Some New Conviction
Around this time every year, I start to reach my fill of winter. The cold is no longer cozy; the snow is no longer magical. So I thought this month, I'd live a bit vicariously and share photos that represent what I'm eagerly awaiting with warmer temperatures.

Another poem I came across when looking through my old high school notebooks. I think when I wrote this, Twilight was really popular. I read all the books (like every other teen girl at the time) and loved them. But once I was finished... well, I kind of realized they were... to put it nicely,… Continue reading Real Love (Not the Stuff They Tell You)
If Miss Carling could see her car, I know I would have been expelled: there was mud splashed across it and there were several dents in the doors. I didn’t take the time to consider what the car had been through--I didn’t care. My head was heavy. I felt as though I was beyond sleep--I… Continue reading Forthcoming, Chapter Twenty-Four: Separations
