Written 25/09/19 Feelings is a festering word that crawls over my skin whenever it falls from my mouth. In this world I fear I have been made to feel ashamed of them. On the one hand it can't be helped that some things matter so deeply to me, but on the other it's so much [...]
A list - can probably be applied to other streams of creativity too A DEFINITON OF WRITER'S BLOCK: FOR ME IT'S AN INTENSE HEADACHE AND A STOMACH FULL OF SHAKING FRUSTRATION. PUSHING FOR A THOUGHT TO APPEAR WHEN THERE'S NOTHING. LIKE PUTTING ONE HUNDRED PERCENT OF YOUR ENERGY INTO STANDING STILL. IT'S A FEELING WE [...]
Here's a pattern I've noticed: you make a wish, work towards it step by step but never feel like you're getting anywhere, then suddenly it's done, you enjoy the moment. And repeat. Life seems to be one long process of creation. A constant journey through that pattern to improve oneself. Although it passes us in [...]
Some stream of consciousness written a couple of weeks ago... Never before have I felt so chaotic. I've become a person I thought unreachable: someone who loses her sense of time because she's having too much fun, doesn't second guess what she's doing and doesn't care for where she's going too much.

One month has passed so easily. Whenever I disappear from blogging I know I'll be sad, but the longer it is also equates to the difficulty of coming back. One moment you're struggling to write and the next there's nothing on the page at all. Scary, really. That I still have ideas but seem to [...]

I find routines too restricting and they make me want to hide under the covers a little longer. However I will [...]
New Summer dresses have been at the forefront of my mind. I love clothes and dressing up and the confidence I find in an outfit. But the process of buying a new item is always slightly chaotic. I'm very conscious about keeping my wardrobe small, yet full of love. I love to know that each [...]
Should you have come to this post with a lack thereof, here's what I would like you to do. Go to your mirror for ten minutes and study yourself. This is the honest way I build my body confidence. To amplify I often listen to music too. Ask me as I'm writing this and I [...]
Breathless without moving, my thoughts outrun me time and time again. I often run away into my mind, and lead a completely different life. A lot of my memories actually revolve around the stories I created at the time rather than a realistic recollection. I know that for a long time I was deeply insecure. [...]
All I can think about at the moment is fictional worlds, which is also making it difficult to focus on blog posts. So compromise, let's have a writing update! At the end of last year I finished one story and have begun an editing process with it. If I thought getting the initial plot down [...]
