I love hearing a song that radiates the mood I'm trying to capture, then sitting with my eyes closed, listening, and envisioning my characters living in that mood.

Other times, honestly, I just plain force myself to write and work with whatever comes out!(less)

Updates & Thoughts

So many things have changed so quickly over the last few months. I’m not even quite sure where to start, so I apologize in advance if this reads like a stream of consciousness…it sort of is!

I suppose I will start with a little update about my health. I know I recently announced a bit of a writing hiatus because I was undergoing Accutane treatment…but good news! I am finished, the medication is out

“When we compare, we want to be the best or have the best of our group. The comparison mandate becomes this crushing paradox of “Fit in and stand out!” It’s not be yourself and respect others for being authentic, it’s “Fit in, but win.” I want to swim the same workout as you, and beat you at it.”
