My 100th “No”
Being a writer, I am constantly submitting posts, short stories and even the occasional poem in the hopes of getting published. And being an insanely organized writer, I keep track of everything I submit in a spreadsheet. When I submit something, I’ll update the spreadsheet with a new entry including the date, the place I… Continue reading

Jeffrey’s Big Milestone
I’m not sure what the appropriate introduction song is here… For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow? Happy Birthday? Graduation by Vitamin C? There are just so many emotions to sort through. I can’t decide which song fits the best. In short: my car, Jeffrey, just hit 100,000 miles and I don’t know how I feel… Continue reading

My Journey (So Far) to Winning the Heisman
One of the goals I set for myself in 2017 is to run 1000 miles, and this past Sunday, I hit the 200-mile mark! Woo! You still have 800 to go, you know. Hey. Enough of that, negative brain. I’ve run 200 miles! HELL YEAH SHE HAS. Thank you, positive brain. This is an exciting… Continue reading

Happy Birthday, Mr. Rogers!
When I was little my family lived next door to my grandparents, and oftentimes I would walk over after school to watch TV and have an afternoon snack.

A Lesson from Boxers, Beasts & Gilmore’s
It’s 12:30 am and I’m writing. Now, that may be early or late for you, or it might not matter much at all, but I’m just in one of those moods. I had an idea and I know that it can’t wait. That I have to get it down now. I’m not unfamiliar to this… Continue reading

Dotting My I’s Like Valerie
My handwriting is garbage. There’s no two ways about it. It’s this weird cursive/printing hybrid that generally only makes sense to me. Honestly, if I had a nickel for every time someone said “what does this say?” I wouldn’t be on such a tight budget. When I was middle school, I sat next to this… Continue reading

The Election & What to do Now
When I woke up this past Tuesday, I had a knot in my stomach. For weeks it had seemed as though Election Day was always just out of sight, but suddenly I was awake in its hours, knowing my country would be different before I went to bed. I brushed my teeth, ate breakfast, and… Continue reading

Toothless, Topless Dreams
I don’t know what it is about me, but I have Weird. Ass. Dreams. We’re talking, “hey Kim you should really get this checked out by a trained professional, or have someone you trust watch to see if you unconsciously take acid after you fall asleep” type of dreams. But not to worry, a few… Continue reading
