Chapter 2: Ireland – Part II
Here I am, back once more, attempting to finish this seemingly endless, self-appointed project of mine… My return is partly due to the hint of autumn in the air today, and the nostalgia that comes with it. The back-to-school-ness of it all: romanticizing years past and the beginning of a new year. I’ve always tracked…

Chapter 1: Ireland – Part I
24 April, 2024 (posted 70 days later…) I am sitting in what feels like an airport but is actually a jury assembly holding area because I was summoned for jury duty today.

I got a tattoo.
Actually, three. I recently got… acquired?… how does one say that they now have three tattoos? Well, I do. This may come as a surprise to you, especially if you know me well. When I was little, I was so terribly afraid of needles that during one flu shot incident, my parents had to chase…

Prologue
8 June 2023 Exactly three weeks ago, I stepped onto a plane and my life was forever changed. And that, my dear reader, is how one might start a novel about a summer abroad. I, for one, cannot take that line seriously. The thing is, I know that my life has changed but writing a…

Exposition
3 May 2023 Hi, hello, I’m really doing this. I do not feel great about the domain name, so, already off to a promising start. From an early age, I wanted to be a journaling “Dear Diary” type of person. I spent countless hours reading novels in journal format, particularly historical fiction for teens. I…
