Blogtober #18: Keep That Same Energy.
I've said it a million times over: when it comes to writing and creating, I seem to burst with ideas and projects in the fall. It's the electricity in the air. It's the leaves. It's the absence of mosquitoes. Ideas have been coming at me nonstop (like legit novels, dear reader; me, who looks at …
Blogtober #17: Fall Fabu Fashion.
Hey y'all. As you can imagine, with temps in the 40s and 50s around here in Somewheres, Texas (which is hardly seasonal; we should be around the 60s and bit of 70s, for the most part, but I certainly am not complaining), the pulling out of coats and sweaters and boots and scarves is in …
Blogtober #16: Veruca Salt.
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory is on the telly. One of my absolute favorites of all time. And you know what? Charlie was great and good and all that, but there's only one person I identify with. When I was younger, it was definitely a secret admiration. But now? We're soul sisters. Miss Veruca …

Blogtober #12: Flashback Friday to Summer.
No, this post isn't necessarily about fall, although the last day of my trip occurred in September. But we're flashbacking today, so it's all good. Anywho, this past Labor Day weekend, I left on a jet plane to visit a good friend of mine who lives in Orange County, CA. Despite the fact that it …

Blogtober #11: Throwback FallDay
For this Throwback Thursday FallDay, a poem I wrote embodying our recurring theme: The Fall There’s a crack in your sweet autumn heart. Gone are the crisp nights and burgundy leaves that filtered through– now your heart bears dust, ashes, and the hard soil of the ground. I wanted to kiss that heart; now I …
