I have a friend going through a really rough time trying to pull herself from an abusive relationship. She is telling her own story her own way on her blog. Telling the story is a hard thing to do, and I am so proud of her. It has me thinking about a lot of things …

I’mma Learn to Use a Torch
Or: Dragons and Zombies and Shit I feel the creativity come back. When I’m depressed it goes away and leaves a dramatic void. I never quite understood what that void was until this time. I knew I couldn’t write but for some reason it never dawned on me it was because my creativity was gone. …

Take a Nap, Woman
So, apparently, from the reactions of people who love me and care about me, I seem very not okay. Truth is, I had a rough week. I’ve had to be up early almost every morning this week and then to bed early. Things are more stressful than normal in the house and insane hormones and …

NSFW Again
Today’s poem comes to you in the form of a free form poem that, like ALL of my blogs, I won’t revise, edit, or in anyway make seem professional. If this week were a person I would bow with a flourish and tell it most emphatically to go fuck itself I would …

The Weird and Wonderful
Things have been looking up. I’m still not anywhere near a normal human schedule. I think I never will be. Saturday, I went to my goddaughter’s first birthday party.

For Serious, Yo
So, I freaked all the way out Tuesday, and now I’m coming back together. It happens. So it’s the Fourth of July and I should write something profound and historical sounding. Instead, I’m going to show you this: Then I’m going to tell you random stories: I sneezed earlier and hurt myself. That, my friends, …

Why We Come in Pairs
Well, not necessarily pairs, but in groups… Last week, I kind of stopped writing… everything. Last week was one of those weeks that it took everything I had to keep breathing. This has been a stressful year. It just has been. I know everything will be okay. I know I can handle it. Sometimes it …
