As I stare at this pile of books (you’re only seeing a fraction), I have to repeat one mantra: You are doing this in the name of creative writing. Okay, sure. I’m aggrandising this a bit. Maybe a lot. Definitely a lot. Anyway, it at least serves as a (somewhat delusional) reason to read 50+… Continue reading And So Begins My Dissertation
So here are the reasons I’ve ghosted on my own blog: Moved from Burbank to Van Nuys Left old job Moved from Van Nuys to London Started MA English Language and Linguistics at the University of Westminster Began obsessing over classes, essays, dissertations and all that fun stuff Squeezed in some good ‘ol writing whenever… Continue reading Some Happy Little Updates

In fact, it would probably take as much practice and prep as my 5K run goal. Little did I know how out of… Continue reading Bucket List: Preparing For My Meditation Day
And I’m so proud of it!! This website needed some serious updating, so I figured I’d spice it up with some new photos. I wanted to go for the whole pastoral-damsel-writing-a-book-with-a-unicorn-and-a-spaceship-in-the-background kind of thing (mythical beasts and flying saucers will be Photoshopped in soon!). To be honest, I wasn’t expecting it to come out as… Continue reading Yes, I Did A Fairy Unicorn Photoshoot For My Blog
