Is it good, bad, interesting, or just plain weird that I’m starting to follow/keep up with/understand Dungeons and Dragons? I really don’t know how to classify this, other than in terms of it being a nice way to spend time with my boyfriend. Every Saturday he and his friends get together and play for a […]

I enjoy writing poetry, even when it’s bad, which it often is, but I hate studying it for creative writing classes. Okay, so that’s not an entirely true statement. I like to study poetry, I just don’t like to WRITE poetry for class. There’s a reason for this. (Don’t worry, I’m not just one of
So I was thinking that those of you who are doing Nanowrimo this year should give me your user name so I can add you as a writing buddy. This means that those of you I’ve talked to who I know are explicitly doing nanowrimo should respond to this post, as I would like to
So, I have several pieces of information, all of them pleasant. For one thing, I am back at school! (And completely happy to be here, I might add.) Woot! Okay, so that was not what I wrote this entry to say. My BIG news, as you might have guessed by the capitalization, is that I’ve

The title should say it all. I sent the email this morning, though it took all the bravery I had to push the ‘send’ button. Anyway, I’m expecting to hear from the agent–who, ironically, shares a name with one of my major characters–within the week. As soon as I know I’ll post something here, as
I was at work today when my Dad walked in. He’s visited me at work before but he really had no reason for it today. Or so I thought. Practically the first thing out of his mouth after he said hello was that the agent had called him back and wanted to see the first
