5-stars for writing and publishing a book of short stories from the author's mixed (Chamoru-Filipina) heritage, and "local girl" perspective. Entirely myopic, it is truly a microcosm of life in Micronesia. ...more | |

"Something to Do with Paying Attention" . . . it's not some phony thing, not at all. It's funny, a little sad, a lot of thinking about thinking (about stuff that really matters). It's all about how if you just pay attention, actually focus your atte ...more | |

“If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you wont give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ... Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.”

“At night, I open the window
