Dear Scholastic, I was brokenhearted to read your article about a “Literary Cleanse” that first insinuates that some writings should be thrown out of your life if it isn’t up to whatever the author deems worthy and ends with the statement that romance is trashy, “not good for you,” and on par with the See’s Candy Catalog for reading. There are so many reasons this bothers me and, because this is my blog, I’m going to share them with you. {Read More}

October 21, 2014 by 22 Comments
When I was 25 I got pulled over for driving illegally. The cop thought I was 14 and out joyriding in my parents’ car. I’m telling you this so when I share my story, it gives you some perspective and that I’m not being down on myself in anyway. You see, in college (when I was 20) I had a stalker. I’ve mentioned it here or there, but I’ve never really talked about it before. But, with everything going on {Read More}
