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 →

Do you remember … Continue reading I Implore You →

Big Toe Musings

I woke up this morning staring at my big toe. I was laid out on my belly with my cheek squished into the pillow and my foot slightly askew off the edge of the bed. While I stared at my toe attempting to will myself to move, I started thinking about us as human beings … Continue reading Big Toe Musings →

Into a Foggy Night

IT'S LATE. I don't usually post this late. It's been raining all day and now the street lights are setting the fog aglow. I have a window right by my bed and I stare out it when I can't sleep. I've decided I'm taking a break from Twitter. A few days maybe. I have manuscripts … Continue reading Into a Foggy Night →

So I Read Your Book

WHAT A dreadful arrangement of words. What horrors spawn in the heart by the sound of them, conceived in light of this ambiguous and ominous news: "So . . . I read your book." It's like news of a coming snowstorm. Exciting but uncertain. You hoped you were on your way to a book deal … Continue reading So I Read Your Book →
