I don’t make NY Resolutions, so this is not going to be about that. Instead, this is going to be about…well, you’ll see.
As I was driving back from the airport to my house, I felt some relief to be getting away from my family and the pernicious insidiousness of Taiwanese beliefs about women, family, etc. [...]
Hello, bitchez. Have you missed me? I have missed you–and blogging. I kind of took blogging for granted before I embarked on my third NaNoWriMo, and I didn’t realize how much I got out of it. So I am back with a vengeance, though I cannot say better than ever.
First, housecleaning details: 200,220 words [...]
Aaaaand, I’m back with more of my favorite literature. First, a little more backstory. There was a time in my mid-twenties when I couldn’t read any serious fiction. I still read my beloved mysteries, but I eschewed literature. I didn’t have any particular reason–I just wasn’t feeling it.
Much as I am not now. Now, [...]
So, ok. My last three posts have been about all ways I differ from the mainstream when it comes to pop culture. TV, movies, and music. What’s missing from these lists, you ask yourself? Well, you probably don’t, but I’m going to tell you, anyway. Books, of course. I am obviously a very verbal [...]
Pssst. Hey, you. Come a little closer because I have a secret to tell you. I fucking hate Amy Tan. Shocking, I know, but I cannot stand the bitch. OK, OK, to be fair, that’s not exactly true. I don’t hate Amy Tan herself (partly because I don’t even know her), but I hate the [...]
I just found out some news that really pisses me off, but since it’s of the least importance, I will save it for later.
First of all, I have added Yellow Menace to my blogroll to the left. Please check it out when you have a moment because it’s a rollicking good site filled with all [...]
A very dear friend (whom I’ve never met as she currently lives in France) named Jamie who has the marvelous cooking blog, Life’s A Feast, bestowed upon me the Bella Award which is for “One Lovely Blog”. Now, lovely is not the first word I would affix to my blog, but I am touched, humbled, and [...]
Ok, not really. It’s day 13 of Script Frenzy month, and I just wanted to check in and let you know how I’m doing. The goal is to wirte a hundred-page screenplay in the month of April. That breaks down to roughly three-and-a-half pages per day. So, since I tend to be a perfectionist in [...]
I should be working on my script. I know what I want to write, and I have written some of it, but I am not now writing. Why? I’ll tell you.
I am actively depressed. This is not the passively sitting still and watching the world go by kind of depressed–oh no. This is the ‘who [...]
As I was lying in bed last night, futilely trying to go to sleep, I suddenly realized that all my love videos I have posted have been from men. To right that dastardly wrong, I will be posting several love videos by women. First up, some old-school Indigo Girl. Their poignant song, Love’s Recovery.
Ok. I [...]
