she was a 'wanderess.' thus, she didn’t care about money, only experiences – whether they came from wealth or from poverty, it was all the same to her. – roman payne
Look! It’s me! I wasn’t lying! Truly, it’s hard to believe, yes? I am going to take you back in time, rewind the clock to December 2022. In some ways it seems like yesterday, but in others it feels like another lifetime. It was a special time for me because for the first time I […]
Logging onto my computer today, I had a different plan in my head then telling this tale. Then there was a writing prompt, one that I laughed off yesterday with a simple thought of “what kind of feature is this, a silly one that’s for sure” and with that thought 24 hours later I am […]
When the clock stuck 12:01 this New Year’s I told myself I would come back to those things that filled me with joy. I would drop the needle upon some vinyls more often, curl in my favorite corner listening the raindrops drum against the window. I would get lost within a world of words on […]
A natural consequence of my being a casual season behind in my writing is that I have an abundance of untold stories and therefore spend much of my free time spinning these stories. It is an amusing past time though, I do wonder which podcasts I am negating while doing so or meeting I have […]
On the morning of my 33rd birthday I peeled my eyes open not to a slew of happy birthday messages or notifications about successfully making this trip around the sun but rather to news headlines about the school shooting in Texas.

It’s early on Thanksgiving morning on this side of the world. The sky heavy with dew and fog dancing between bare-boned branches as my record player spins in my living room. It’s high time for me to attempt a catch up as I am nearly a year behind in logging my chronicles on the internet. […]
I had the perfect plan of this I was sure. With the negative test in my hand and a wily scheme in my head the game was on. Only a total of four people knew that I was coming, and it was to stay that way. I would arrive mid-day after a non-stop flight (where […]
I have a lot of thoughts right now. Not just in the present moment but as every day unfolds it seems that my mind is on overdrive. Throughout the 24 hour cycle, the range of my emotions can be extreme. A case of emotional whiplash occurs quite regularly. As the dawn breaks my heart and […]
We are living in a strange world at the moment, one of extremes. It seems that since January I have been playing out in my own mind what exactly this would look like for me. What would it feel like? How could I prepare? The thing is you really can’t. Nothing has quite turned the […]
