Shell Spotted

Someone, please draw on my skin with needles

In other words, I’m dying for a tattoo.

Am I Responsible or Regretful?

I have this weird thing about feeling responsible for someone else’s anger.

Finally putting my writing up on my own freaking blog

It took two years, but here I am finally putting a piece of fiction up here. I often write a couple hundred words here or there – little snippets that don’t become anything – and I wanted to put them up here for the longest time.

I ignored you for two months and became an award winning writer

I have been ignoring my blog, for all the usual life reasons, but usually it just comes from me not having very much to say. Well. I did a bit of travelling and now I got tons to say, hello.

You did not read that wrong, I have in fact been reading about the universe from the point of view of a camel. And let me tell you, it has been an incredible experience.
