Taking that all in and not feeling defeated, I pushed myself as a writer and began to expand on a short story that I had written. That short story turned out to be my first novel, Dreamtini, which was originally published in 2007.

IMPOSTER SYNDROME

When it came to writing letters, I was the bomb! I mean, when I wrote letters to friends and family, I just wrote. I’d get out everything I wanted, and that would be it. When writing essays for school, all I’d have to do was answer the who, what, when, where, why, and how. I… Continue reading IMPOSTER SYNDROME Read more of this blog post »

Arnittress Dowdy and 33 other people liked Dawn Stahl's review of Professional Troublemaker: The Fear-Fighter Manual: "I'm a fan of Luvvie's online presence, her now-famous TED talk, and her first book, so I had high expectations for this one. In it, she takes on a common enemy of personal progress — that plays-dirty voice in your head called "fear." Using common sen" Read more of this review »

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
