Thursday, November 4th, 2010There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents … and only one for birthday presents, you know. — Lewis Carroll Today, I turn 24. That seems like an unbelievably large number (especially considering the fact that I’m writing this post from my room in my parent’s house — not exactly [...]
Bloggers, Say Hello to Your New BFF: The Printed Blog
Monday, August 30th, 2010Voracious Vixens! I’m not going to bore you with needless apologies about my lack of blogging lately (though I do, sincerely, apologize). Instead, I’m going to jump right into telling you why I haven’t been around. The Printed Blog has captured my heart–and my time. So like, WTF is The Printed Blog? It might sound [...]
The Unhappily Uninspired Writer’s Guide to Kick Starting Creativity (& Gaining Back Creative Confidence!)
Saturday, August 28th, 2010In this “Information Age,” we can devour all kinds of different creative media. We can scour the web for new photographers, research the latest in emerging fashion designers, see an artist’s work before it ever hits a gallery and read our favorite writer’s blog in between books just to get a taste of their every [...]
A Little Story about Man’s Best Friend
Monday, August 23rd, 2010We adopted Libby, our part beagle, part husky mix, on the 4th of July. Her full name is actually Liberty, in honor of that fact. ‘Libby’ was just a natural progression–and, as my parents said, easier to yell. Libby wasn’t a bad puppy, but she definitely had her flaws. We enrolled her in puppy obedience [...]
Turning Fear Into Love
Saturday, August 14th, 2010(via weheartit) Remember the scene in Donnie Darko when the health teacher draws a continuum on the board & tells the students that all emotions fall somewhere along this line between fear & love? (Hint: If you don’t, you can watch it here.) Although Mr. D didn’t agree (& as a angsty teen, I didn’t [...]
Inspired by: Anaïs Nin
Wednesday, August 11th, 2010If there’s one thing on this planet that never ceases to inspire me, it’s sex. Steaming, passionate, wild, intense, romantic, lustful, sweaty S-E-X. It’s not because I’m necessarily a big advocate of new feminism (I am) or because I daydream about affairs with long-haired musicians (I do), but rather because the most wonderful, intoxicating stories [...]

Hi, I’m Neurotica (or, How I’m Learning to Accept Myself).
Thursday, July 29th, 2010[This photo was probably taken when I was in my most depressed, awful mental state. Cerca 2007.] I realize that after reading the title of this post, you probably think I’ve lost it. Spun out of control. Gone off the deep end. Said Heyy-lo! to Crazytown. But hear me out, ladies. In high school, the [...]
Cheap (or Free!) E-Books You Should Read Right Now: Online Magazine
Wednesday, July 28th, 2010I’ll admit it: I’m a sucker for the e-book. If I visit a website that boasts they will send me a FREE E-BOOK! if I sign up for e-mail updates, you better believe I’ve clicked “Submit” before you can read this sentence. I just love them. I don’t know what it is–I’m definitely a print [...]
5 Things I’ve Learned at My Corporate Job
Friday, July 23rd, 2010I never wanted to get a corporate job. I never had dreams of climbing the metaphorical corporate ladder, wearing crisp black pant suits and sharply stomping my way to the corner office. Not once (but does anybody, really?) For as long as I can remember, I’ve rebelled against anything that encouraged the tiniest ounce of [...]
