Life Update: I Got a New Bed

2021: My Year in Preview

It’s a new year and I’m ready to get to f*ckin work! I’m well past hopeful. I’m ready. I’m doing the damn thing! This is where I’ve been for awhile now. There’s a lot I am doing and want to do and I don’t feel scared or anxious about it. I don’t feel insecure, I…

2020: My Year in Review

I have no idea how I’m supposed to write this one. This year has been particularly difficult and full of personal loss. And also the year was full of a lot of exciting creative gains. I think the easiest way to go about this is to focus on the time capsule aspect of this post.…

Rin Chupeco’s The Bone Witch Trilogy meticulously lays out the story before you so that there is no surprise, only sweet dread and dreaded hope.

It’s my 30th birthday.

Last year, I started my first audio fiction podcast. It's an anthology about mermaids. I started it within two weeks of having the initial idea of it. I started it because I wanted people drawing mermaids to have a podcast about mermaids to listen to while they drew mermaids in May. I put my poetry,…

Louie Zong’s “Fries” EP is a godsend for my writing/productivity woes

Let the record show that I freakin’ love Louie Zong’s music. Zong’s work has been a staple in my playlist building and writing prompts for a while now. But this November, one particular EP has been an incomparable tool in the battle for word count domination. This particular EP came out in August but as…
