Accepting Winter
Hello, friends! I am writing to you from my couch, buried under a blanket, as a light rain falls. We've been getting snow on and off this week. I pretend to hate snow on my Instagram, and I certainly have mixed feelings with it. Part of me is the Texan who is still fascinated by… Continue reading Accepting Winter
We Are Not Workshop Buddies
Tonight during my experimental fiction class, I heard the familiar sound of paws scratching at my office door. Apollo sometimes likes to spend my writing classes with me.

A Little Bit of Sunshine
Happy weekend, friends! Wednesday was a wonderful day. I know there won't be overnight changes now that Biden is in office, but I've been feeling optimism about the pandemic (and life in general) for the first time in a very long time.

Hibernating
Good morning all! I hope you were able to find some joy this weekend. Even without the coup, it was a rough week. Current events made me sad. Work made me very sad. To cap off a rough week at work, I was the recipient of a not-so-great email that was sent 5 pm on… Continue reading Hibernating
