/i’ve said before that i’ll stop writing about it when it stops bothering me. this applies to a few things. some of them live rent free./

they start differently // they always end the same

lately i’ve been waking up earlier and earlier. unexpected and unintentional. they’re always normal dreams up until the ending. i should probably tell my therapist about this.

at this point it feels like i’m just posting (mostly) unfinished drafts because i haven’t had it in me to finish putting together book 4. ope. i’ll get to it i’m just. very tired.

i’ve been pretty quiet for a while now. life happens and the like, y’know? however, i wanted to at least stop in to acknowledge that my second book, gravity, turns 8 years old today. it’s always weird to look back at things i’ve written, especially when compared with things i’ve written more recently. 2014 was a very….. strange point in my life. although that could be said about literally any point in it.

anyway ! i’m not dead (yet) ! i promise i’m still working on things and i hope to be able to share more information sooner rather than later 👀

i’ve been so distracted and out of it that i completely missed the 3rd anniversary of the release of single stray socks. with as much as i’ve overshared on the internet over the years, this is still probably the most open and honest i’ve ever been publicly. it was terrifying to write it all out and think, “i’m sending this out into the world for anyone to see”. but sometimes no think only do works out for the best (although seldomly). this is my baby and i’m still proud of it. in other news, i’ll get back to posting more often soon. sorry for my uhhhh absence. miss y’all ❤️❤️❤️
