I couldn’t have predicted how much The Crucible would affect me back when Mrs Keller assigned it, but here we are. Ryan and I even went to Salem. Oh, hey, fun fact: I wrote a journal set during the Salem Witchcraft Trials that ended up being one of m ...more |

I need to reread this one. I don't remember caring for the movie that much, but now I'm thinking about creating a character similar to Puck. Obviously there would need to be a Titania and a Bottom, right? ...more | |

One of the great arguments of our early marriage: Ryan: that book doesn’t belong in the canon. Nothing happens! Me: everything happens! Thank the Lord we live in a world where women don’t have to walk out into the ocean, and may we continue to live in t ...more |

The book starts a little slowly with the part about the strikes, but that all comes into play later. It’s a fascinating look at early 20th century life in the factories of New York as well as Tamany Hall and how this fire redirected both the Democrat ...more | |

Gracefully Insane: The Rise and Fall of America's Premier Mental Hospital
by Alex Beam (Goodreads Author) |
|
This book has a LOT of information. It is dense. It's also quite fascinating. If you want to know more about mental hospitals, this is a good place to start. I've never read The Bell Jar or Girl, Interrupted, but now I may need to. Both authors spent ...more |

“As I watched the video of Abi and Rachel—and, yes, me—laughing, I came to an important realization: it was so easy to live life on autopilot and not see the people who truly loved you and supported you.”

“I don't teach writing. I teach patience. Toughness. Stubbornness. The willingness to fail. I teach the life. The odd thing is most of the things that stop an inexperienced writer are so far from the truth as to be nearly beside the point. When you feel glosbal doubt about your talent, that is your talent. People who have no talent don't have any doubt.”
