Halloween is my favorite holiday – and not just because it occurs a week after my birthday! To celebrate, I donned this lovely interpretation of “a wolf in sheep’s clothing” (hat courtesy of my lovely friend Nina and shirt courtesy of my lovely roommate Liberty), baked pumpkin bread, watched The Others and drudged up this […]
Today I am sharing part two of The Observer, my serial science fiction story. Two weeks ago, I introduced Taligunge, the alien observer who comes to Earth, and in this second part, she continues on just that journey.If you haven’t read part one, I highly recommend you check it out right here. And, as always, […]
This week, I introduced a new artistic medium and harkened back to the old as well. Below, you’ll find examples of my coding efforts, my writing, drawing in two ways, and my severe need to move my hands while watching TV. Enjoy! List of posts: (click to jump!) Go to Thursday’s post on the About […]
Drumroll, please! Today, I am introducing first installment of my serial science fiction project, The Observer. As a writer, I have gravitated mostly towards science fiction in the past, and wanted to re-visit my love for it through producing content regularly.

A project that I have wanted to launch for a while, but have not yet dared to test out, is to read some of my work aloud and read them as podcast-like posts for this blog. Today I am taking the plunge. I will start with a story* that I wrote for a creative writing […]
I attended a conference about the social implications of hair – needless to say, I thought about it for a while. Long hair was precious when I was young. From the bushy afro of my baby pictures grew a mane that writhed down my back and looped itself over my sloping shoulders. I was a […]
Paint with the wind. I don’t want to talk about today, I don’t want to talk about tomorrow, I don’t want to talk about the past or the present or the future. All I want to talk about is you.Call it conceited, call it a ‘burst of passion,’ call it what you will but I […]
I know.Sometimes it’s completely wonderful to spend a weekend away from yourself. Away from all the little opinion pieces floating around in your head, narrating your life as if you were some sort of child and needed to be directed at every turn.
