I’m just like,
I WANT IT
Monday May 28 10:19am
Just spent a lovely day with lots of (friendly) cats. And books… so many books.
Sunday May 27 01:25amThursday May 24 12:38pmn. the desire to hold on to time as it passes, like trying to keep your grip on a rock in the middle of a river, feeling the weight of the current against your chest while your elders float on downstream, calling over the roar of the rapids, “Just let go—it’s okay—let go.”

Wednesday May 16 10:20amWhen I was in my teens and early twenties, with dreams of being a writer, Harlan Ellison’s essays on writing taught me more than anything else did. Truth.
Many of those essays, along with the core short stories that made Harlan famous (or infamous) are in HARLAN 101: Discovering Ellison.
I wrote the introduction. The 406 page book’s a bit pricy but it’s a really good place to go if you intend to write.
HARLAN 101: ENCOUNTERING ELLISON
Designed as both an introduction to Harlan Ellison’s vast body of work and as a manual for would-be writers, Harlan 101 collects the best of the author’s short fiction, seven essays on the craft of writing, and a collection of rarely seen oddities from Ellison’s extensive archives.
These are recycled glass jar night lights that I make by hand and sell in my Etsy shop. You want one, don’t you? You should probably treat yourself.
CRAFTY
