I love how changing or adding just a couple of words can modify entire settings, and how one line of dialogue can reveal motives and back stories. I love it when that moment of inspiration hits, the world around me becomes background noise and I'm in a writing bubble, creating a new world. (less)

The Lucas Girl

If you’re a Xennial like me, you probably grew up watching a movie called Lucas starring the late Corey Haim. The movie centered on a young, smart, and sweet, outcast boy named Lucas. He was the kid in school everyone picked on and bullied, and he had trouble finding friends.

Growing up, I identified with Lucas deeply. Until I reached high school and found my fellow freaks and geeks in the drama c Read more of this blog post »

Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham
“The new-born child does not realize that his body is more a part of himself than surrounding objects, and will play with his toes without any feeling that they belong to him more than the rattle by his side; and it is only by degrees, through pain, that he understands the fact of the body. And experiences of the same kind are necessary for the individual to become conscious of himself; but here there is the difference that, although everyone becomes equally conscious of his body as a separate and complete organism, everyone does not become equally conscious of himself as a complete and separate personality.... It is such that he, as little conscious of himself as the bee in a hive, who are lucky in life, for they have the best chance of happiness: their activities are shared by all, and their pleasures are only pleasures because they are enjoyed in common.... It is because of them that man has been called a social animal.”
W. Somerset Maugham

“Women are tough and rather coarse. They were built for the raw, crude work of bearing children. You'd be amazed at what they can do when they divert that baby-hatching energy into some other enterprise.”
Tom Robbins, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

Aldous Huxley
“There will be in the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them but will rather enjoy it.”
Aldous Huxley
