I Got Banned From Writing Battle, and All I Got Was This Lousy Blog Post

Way back in March of this year, I called Writing Battle one of the "Things I Loved". Welp, as of today (technically, Wednesday, August 21), I am permanently banned from ever participating again. Here's what the email said: "Hello, This email is to let you know that your story has…

Top 5 Candy Holidays: A Presentation

This blog will be short because I'm actually doing a presentation. Well, I've already done it by the time this blog is released. I first gave this presentation at the Sleepover Retreat I held in Detroit last year. I gave it in person to a group of friends, some of…

I’m 48 and I Love My Body More than Ever

It's no secret that I'm a woman, so that means that I spent the bulk of my life learning to hate how I look. That's because that's what we were taught (and are still teaching humans, especially women, to this day). Here are some of the unexpected ways this hate…

Riddle Me This: Coffee Edition

I don’t like crumbs in my drinks. Rimming my cocktail with crushed-up graham crackers? GFTO of here with that messy glass. Pina Colada with strands of dried coconut mixed in? I do not want it. Dipping coolies in milk? I hates it. Yes, even Oreos. While I’m on the topic…

One of the BEST Episodes of Television Ever, IMHO

It's no secret that television is one of my life's great loves. Like, I have episodes I watch to help me through difficult times, kind of like self-perscriptions. Now, they won't make much sense to anyone else. You might ask yourself, "How does an episode where a lady hires a…

‘Hadestown’: Thoughts and Wanderings

I tried to squeeze this show in on my last trip, but the tickets were stupid expensive, y’all, so we just went to an Off-Broadway show instead. It wasn’t great, but it made for a moment-in-time memory I will never forget, so it was totally worth it, y’all. But I…

Y’all, I Fucking Love Detroit.

Yes, cursing is required. The Motor City is simply that incredible. One of my favorite hobbies is introducing someone new to the city. As someone who recently moved here myself, I feel unqualified to love it this hard and yell about it this much. But also, I love discovering things.…

Meet My Brain: A Pitch Deck

The only thing I always knew that I wanted to do when I was a kid was write. Write what? I did not know, I just knew it was something I loved to do that came naturally to me.

Meet My Brain: The Oscar Nominations 2025 (+Where to Watch ‘Em)

I love Oscar nomination day. Sometimes more than Oscar night itself. There are often more surprises. Here are my thoughts (as they happen) on the 2025 Academy Award Nominations. Love that Rachel Sennot and Bowen Yang are presenting the nominees. They are doing a great, adorable job. I love that…
