Random Story Thursday: Starbucks

Hey blogger buddies! I had an idea today. I had a random experience while going through the drive-thru at Starbucks and was laughing to myself upon exiting. Of course, my first instinct was to run to Twitter and nonsensically share it with a bunch of people who follow me who probably--let's be honest--could care less…

Book Talk: ISLA and the HAPPILY EVER AFTER

It's been a little while since I've written a Book Talk. Two reasons--scratch that--three reason for that: 1. Life. Life's been...well, it's been "special". 2. I've been on a New Adult trip this summer. Many 'yay's' and MANY more 'nah's'. None really that make me want to Book Talk about them so hence, the silent…

ISLA IS HERE!

August Wish List: So many good things I'm excited to come out this month and all I can do is squirm and rock back and forth in a corner like a crazy person and contemplate robbing a bank. Okay, not really but boy, do I need more money in my life for ALL THE THINGS! Of…

Depression Misunderstood

The stigma of Depression... "Think positively...stop being so negative...you can try harder...don't be lazy...if you really wanted to, you would..." Where does that leave the one suffering with Depression? Feeling guilty, overcome, a bother. You feel like something's wrong with you and you need to get your stuff together or "figure it out" or "fix it",…
