Since I really did much on this site. I needed a break, and then life got busy, as it does. I think I'm ready to be a more regular visitor here again though. For now, anyway.

6 Word Memoirs
So yesterday I was listening to NPR and heard another program about this concept. Basically, there is a myth/legend out in the literary world that Earnest Hemmingway was once challenged to write an entire novel in six words. His went, "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn."
Now, some of the ones that were read and shared on the program were really stunning and inspiring. It made me want to give this a try myself...so I'm going to try to write at least one six word memoir for every day for a year. I hope I don't give up on it!

Ooo, Journals are different!
So, obviously a lot has happened since I last posted...I was never very good with journalling.
Well, where to start?
I've been living with my lovely boyfriend of 2+ years now for a while. We just recently moved in with a friend of ours. The best feature about this place is the GIANT built-in bookshelf in the living room :) Things have been strenuous of late. Like everyone, we have our share of money problems, but it's not worth getting into that.
In April I had some health troubles...things I'm super embarrassed to even think about, let alone talk about. But to put things bluntly, I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Hardly the worst c
Alright, it's been even LONGER now...
So I kinda disappeared for a long time. Heh...
Haven't been too inspired lately, and got lazy about posting class works xD Sorry about that one. Currently, I'm looking for work (still), looking to move out of my parents' house (still), and happily dating Magus-Veneficus (https://www.deviantart.com/magus-veneficus)(still) xD :aww: Feel free to check out his page btw!
I haven't felt that soul-deep longing for the written word in a while, but now my recently posted piece has my fingers itching. Maybe I'd been sated by delving into D&D? At any rate, hopefully more to come sometime :)
Random question ~ anyone have any tips on reading difficult handwritten items? I took on the dauntin
So many things...
It's been way too long my friends, and I apologize for that! I've gone through most of the images in my inbox, and will try to read through the lit soon. But for now, I hope all is well with you, and I have some news for you!
A wonderful man found me and we've now been dating for almost a month, though it feels like much longer :) Other than that happy news, I'm looking for work, trying to find my place in the world and in this house. Reeeeeally trying to move out as soon as I can. My mom won't be too happy with that, but I've been feeling the need for a long time now. Hopefully the job opportunities I've been looking at make a move possible

I'm glad to hear you're still writing, even if you are in search of a muse. I'm in the same boat. Life has just been so busy. We bought a house, I got a promotion, kid moved out, and so it goes. Hoe to see more of you soon.
