We Have to Talk about Neil Gaiman
I have pulled back a lot from writing recently for personal reasons, which is why I’ve been mostly quiet on here and on social media. But something happened in the literary world, and I have to address it. Neil Gaiman was never one of my heroes. The works of his I read were okay but…

Getting Over the Holidays
Every holiday season is the same. I start out okay, then slowly slide into a depressive spiral as I’m hit with reminders of the past; most of my traumaversaries are in the holiday season, after all, especially around Christmas.

Happy New Year! 2024 Edition
Happy 2024 everyone! So much has happened in the last year that it’s hard to quantify everything I’ve done as well as everything I survived. But survive I did. It certainly wasn’t easy, mind you, but while things are still difficult, I started this year off on a better trajectory. For a lot of reasons.…

The Paths We Take
It’s the uncertainty that gets to me. I’m the kind of person who likes to have a backup plan for a backup plan because nothing ever seems to go right. Backup plans fail often too but they bring a sense of security, of having a way out that might save me this time. But plans…
