A difference in self loathing? Please. The only difference between a gun and a rope is the time it takes to tie the knot.

I spent the year behind on deadlines and everything else. It's only now in December that I feel even slightly caught up. 2016 has to be better.

I love blogging, even though apparently it's still dying, and hate it when I have too much going on to do so regularly.

Blogging, I love you no matter how out of fashion you are.

Iloved Ashley Hope Perez's heartbreaking Out of Darkness set in late the 1930s in a small town Texas. It should win all the YA awards.

Speaking out and creating art that truly reflects the world we live in goes part of the way towards doing that. At least that's what I hope.

I'm almost back to being able to write as much as six hours a day .
