Hey guys! Just a quick post today, as I arrived home from my internship last night. I thought I’d share a short lists of pros and cons of being home again.

Words About Rejections and Endings
A longer video, but that’s because there’s a lot going on in my life right now! I apologize for the shaky camera. Until next time, word nerds!
Why Words Matter (Even More than Usual)
So I’m getting over a cold. And for me, colds mean one thing. I lose my voice. Although my voice has now graduated from a barely audible squeak to low and gravelly, my time as a mute made me think. I’ve never considered myself a particularly talkative person, but it’s very hard being unable toContinue reading “Why Words Matter (Even More than Usual)”
6 Reasons I Took an Unpaid Internship
“I’m a poor college student.” It’s a common thing to hear among those pursuing a higher education. Whether as an excuse to stay in rather than going out or a simple complaint about their lot in life, college students are generally on a tight budget. A recent article in my school’s paper discussed the fallingContinue reading “6 Reasons I Took an Unpaid Internship”

It’s Father’s Day and to celebrate, I made a video listing my favorite fictional dads. So, did I miss any? Who are your favorite fictional fathers? Until next time, word nerds!
CONTEST: Sleeping Beauty Story
Exciting news, word nerds! Today marks the beginning of my first ever contest! As you may know, I’ve recently been posting a short story. I wrote it for a contest last year, but unfortunately missed the submission deadline. But guess what! The publishing house that ran the contest is doing another one! This time, it’sContinue reading “CONTEST: Sleeping Beauty Story”
Character Types: Fairy Godmothers
I was recently (and by recently, I mean like a month and a half ago) talking to a writer friend who wanted to write a fairy tale. She asked me what some of the traditional characteristics of fairy godmothers were. That of course turned on the little light bulb over my head. I decided toContinue reading “Character Types: Fairy Godmothers”
