I Would, But I Can’t

I would say I’m going to get so much done tonight. I would say the words are going to flow freely. I would say my mind is teeming with ideas, and they are going to race to the page to see who can get used first. I would say it hasn’t been a long day. … Continue reading I Would, But I Can’t →

There is No Escape

I WONDER how many writers were initially inspired by loneliness. That's not to say all writers are necessarily lonely, but perhaps many of us were in our inception as word-churners? The origins of my motivation to write are easy to pinpoint. Loneliness was and is key. I have certain characters in my head that I'll … Continue reading There is No Escape →

To Kill a Zombie

MOST DAYS I do okay. I wake up optimistic and excited. Not thinking about everything. What's everything? You know what everything is. Everything that's happened in your life up until now. All the things that consume you. All those thoughts in your head. A lot of the time I feel like just existing is a … Continue reading To Kill a Zombie →

A Little Slice of Terrible Blogging

I LOVE pizza almost as much as I love coffee. I know this already sounds like a cheesy blog topic (pun!), since almost everyone loves pizza and I can't possibly express some unique, unmatched affection for those big, topping-piled slices of heaven, but I'm doing it anyway. Mind you, I'll eat any pizza. If I'm … Continue reading A Little Slice of Terrible Blogging →

I Implore You

You guys are reading my random thoughts, so I’m going to keep putting them out there. Today I want to talk about perspective. Perspective is the difference between a smile and a frown, peace and anguish, indifference and anger; perspective is literally how we see the world. How is perspective built? Experience. Do you remember … Continue reading I Implore You →
