Aligning Text: A New Stylistic Tool To Enhance Your Writing
Yeah, I’m a mega-nerd, as mega-nerdy as they come.
Text alignment isn’t just for right-aligning headers and center-aligning titles and tabbing over for paragraphs and such. You, the creator, can utilize it as a stylistic tool in your writing. Continue reading
Pillow talk
Schooling is not the same as education education - it is sacred. Here it is commodified - twisted, manipulated, thrown away with every spit bubble lazily popping at your mouth, every glazed over look you give your teacher Continue reading
Where you will find me when I’m “writing”
Can I wake up here and write?
Not at home.
Well, yes, sometimes I write at home, but if it were my world to dictate, I wouldn’t.
At home, I’ll write in the comfort of my own bed (as I am right now). There’s some comfort in reclining on a fluffy pillow, bare toes wiggling beneath the covers, with easily accessible water and a power cord nearby.

Intense…is the way I feel about you. Continue reading

An Ode to Frozen Yogurt
Here’s to you, frozen yogurt!
I love your multiplicity in flavor,
your variety in topping,
your recent boom in popularity.
What used to be a vague, alien concept
is now a treat that I look forward to
even in the dead of winter,
in horribly cold 40-degree weather.
