Apologies in advance for the heteronormative pronoun use here as this is addressed primarily in response to a specific essay/piece. Mr. David Hon, Oh, my good sir, where does one begin with the likes of you? Like so many, so curious, I read your little opinion piece over the weekend because the title of … Continue reading

She Who Roars.
Right, so it wasn’t all that long ago when I received one of those annoying Facebook Instant Message Chat Popup Hailing Textbox Conversation-Starter thingys. Honestly though, it wasn’t the chat format I loathed (I shouldn’t blame IM). It was The Person who’d just suddenly appeared out of nowhere right there on my screen without any … Continue reading
The Last Hour of Writing…
This is how it’s been: 14 minutes into my outlining of book 2: Why doesn’t she (main character) eat anything, ever? It’s like she runs out for lunch in order to have A happen to her, and then when B distracts her, C has to happen, but she comes back to work, and SHE STILL … Continue reading
Those Crazy Mamas Online
So there’s this silent war right now. I say it’s “silent” simply because it’s personal, and the warring factions don’t want the other to know it’s happening because, again, it’s personal, and feelings would be torn, and other factions would be involved and hurt, and it’s complicated; I can’t have it. I love them all. … Continue reading
Varnishing
Sometimes, there are those people who just need an extra eye. They may need a serious “varnishing.” In other words, everything they’ve got on, everything they’ve done to themselves, well, it’s just…wrong, so they’re desperately in need of an opinion and some shine (although they may not realize, let alone appreciate, any of it). Listen, … Continue reading
2016 Resolution: Don’t Be a Dick.
Okay, I think I’ve finally made a decision. My 2016 resolution, such as it is, is not to be a dick. Well, I will do my best at any rate. I will attempt to be “dickish” only in my thoughts and not aloud… unless certain troubles start, troubles caused by genuine dicks, the ones like… The … Continue reading
The Comedian and the Psychopath, a Love Story
Got something playing so heavily in my mind, going around in loop-dee-loops right now, and it’s not anything having to do with me whatsoever. It’s gossip, pure and simple. Well, not so pure and maybe not entirely all that simple. Before I even touch upon what has nothing to do with me and made purely on assumptions, … Continue reading
NaScrWriMo or something or rather… (INT. PIPE DREAM – NIGHT)
(The bitchin’ Anita Loos, screenwriter Boss. Could there be anyone else?) So I’m fed up with the novel querying/rejections right now. No, I am not giving up hope because I can’t. Am Just Fed the Fuck Up at the moment. While I’m taking a slight break from that utter hell (I don’t know how you … Continue reading
Writers Going Ballistic
I’m an amateur writer. I’d certainly like to call myself “professional,” and a part of me feels as if I ought to (I have been paid to write before…I mean, if we’re to stick with conventions, right?). However, I never feel quite confident enough in my own abilities to claim the “professional” title. After all, I’m still learning. … Continue reading
My state legislature can get stuffed.
If my state legislature can get anything WORTHWHILE (as in genuinely good for the people) accomplished at all this year, never mind this TERM, it will be a miracle. They’re all nothing but the most useless pieces of fart-dung ever. Our governor is a ninny (and a crook) who has taken a big, wet poop all over … Continue reading
