Getting there!! It's too much action and whale mans chasing after whales!!

This is a book everyone should read jaja

I am doing it!!!!

woohooo I am getting somewhere FINALLY

Stories, essays and journals. They rarely last more than 15 pages. I don't think I can take it anymore. The excitement of starting a new story and the upsetting grief of finishing. I leave you for a novel in the meantime. Forgive me. :/

Too many words I don't know! constantly pulling out the big dictionary!

Accidentally ripped off a page trying to kill my own great whale (a scary bug)

This is a great story, and one that gives me a lot of inspiration that I'm able to apply towards my illustration practice!

oh my. She is a current professor of mine in the creative writing program and oh my. Her words are beautiful and striking. I am immediately impacted by the way she paints a picture of grief and all the ways it affects you. I am so honored to be reading a book of hers and only reaching 50 pages right now. I consider myself lucky. I cannot wait to read more and cry more.

wow.
