Welcome to Friyay, and welcome to our second Square Peg Story. (Look for this feature twice a month on Fridays.) Today, you're going to meet Lauren. I've known this lovely beacon of light for several years now and have always been impressed by her positivity, her smile, her talent, and her fashion sense, among other …
Singleton Photoshoots: The Quarantine Edition.
If you live alone like me and still have dress-up time during this quarantine (I happily put on makeup and shed the sweats for my weekly worship Zoom meetings and virtual ministry), selfies become a bit tiresome. Because all you largely do is selfie, quarantine or no. Alas: I have a solution, dear Singleton. You …

Square Peg Stories. (#1)
Welcome to a brand new feature on TSP. By now, I'm sure you've captured the following about this little corner of the Internets: Women's empowerment means the world to me. Every woman has a journey and a story, and I'm significantly interested in both. It's not just about me. All that said, we have a …
because it’s Wednesday.
This is certainly unprecedented. We greet Wednesday with not just one person, but five of them. (Well, still one, but we'll talk about that in a second.) Let me tell you how I discovered New Edition. Back in the 80s, the kids in school would sing, over and over again, "sunny days..." But they would …

If you're an artist (writing, painting, singing, sculpting, dance, figuring out Math equations which, to me, is a true art form), perhaps, like me, your main medium is often influenced by another art form. For example, if you draw, you may love dance as a source of inspiration. As a writer, I find myself inspired by …
Dressing Room Diaries #1: Stripes and Dots.
Sometimes I go to the store and I try things on. If you know anything about This Square Peg, you'll know that doing that, especially during cold weather or when I'm bloated, hurts me. But baby steps. Anywho, sometimes I buy said outfits, sometimes I don't. I almost always take pics of what I try …

Before and After.
Happy to let y'all know that I contributed a piece for my good friend AB's new blog. I also hold the privilege of being the very first contributor for her new baby, which is awesome when you consider how much I love supporting my friends, especially when it comes to writing/blogging. Check it out here, …
Keep Your Voice Down When Making Declarations of Love: Random Memory #1
Welcome to a new feature on This Square Peg, where I share the random memories that come to me during my morning commute to work! You're welcome. There's always a catalyst to the memories. This particular morning, as I stepped off the train, I saw a young woman who reminded me of a girl that …
