If you're living on this side of Earth, you've heard that Harry and Meghan have decided to significantly change their status with the royal family. (I won't link to any articles because, whew chile, the bias.) In other words, H&M want to step back from being senior members of the royal family, become financially independent, …
[Not] Writing.
I haven't written anything creatively in a long while. Fiction is my thing, my jam. You know that. But it's been excessively hard for me to hunker and write. I have some suspicions as to why. Let's talk them over. No inspo. Like most artists, inspiration is so huge for me. I need that flow, …
how English majors see the world.
Symbols. We see symbols in everything. For four years (and really, for many years before, since I was an avid reader and was already consciously and subconsciously doing this), I analyzed plot lines, characters, meanings, subtext.

Blogtober #28: Fall Mall Haul
Guess who went to the mall today... Yes, I did a tiny bit of Sunday shopping. (1) Cat eye sunnies from New York & Company (2) New lipstick and lip liner from MAC: Smoked Purple and Nightmoth, respectively. (The saleslady was slick; she heard me saying that I had no intention of purchasing makeup and …
Blogtober #27: “…in one autumnal face.”
It's a gorgeous day. It's edible and gorgeous and autumnal and even warmer here than the season calls for. Enjoy your Saturday, wherever you are.
Blogtober #26: The Home Stretch. Somewhat.
