It’s been a while. I feel like I begin all of my posts with that lately. Sometimes I feel like I’m slacking on my dream. But if I really was giving up I wouldn’t still be posting and still putting in the effort to write. For those of you that don’t know, I got into […]
I traced my name across the spine of the book, “SHATTER ME by Haisley Adams.” Careful not to pick it up, lest someone sees a floating novel. I still couldn’t believe it: my book was being sold at little corner booths like this all over the world. The fog was so thick today you could […]
I have mentioned some poets in the past that inspire me. But I think I forgot one. I only forgot them because they are a little unorthodox. So, without further ado, will the real slim shady please stand up? When I was in high school I became very angry with the world. Right around that […]
Throughout life we are asked a lot about our favorites. One my indecisive self has always struggled with is ‘What’s your favorite season?’ There are reasons I like and dislike each one. Usually though, I fall back on autumn. When writing this series of poems though I found myself stuck choosing one. How can one […]
It’s that day again! The day single people dread and significant others scramble over. And then there’s the little kids that are just grateful for another excuse for a school party and candy!

It had been three weeks and five days since Darya came to shore and there’d been no sign of Marlowe. It’s been ten years since she saw his figure fade in the distance, waving from the sandy beaches of Florida. Darya wiggled her freshly manicured pink toes in the sand, enjoying the feel of the […]
Alright, alright, I know it’s been forever since I’ve posted anything really. But hear me out. From August to December life gets crazy. Back to school and then back to back holidays! Who came up with that calendar?! Anyway, my time to read steadily dwindled and with it, my finished books and my time to […]
I would like to say that something catastrophic has been keeping me from working towards my life-long dream of supporting myself off my writing but alas, that is not the case. It’s just been regular ol’ life. When I started this website I told myself “you can’t let this website disappear,” “this is the year […]
I’m lucky enough to have lived near Lake Erie my whole life. Over the past few years craft shows in the area and local boutiques have become overrun with all things “lake life”. It has taken me a long time to come to terms with that. I always thought, why the lake? Don’t most people […]
Your giggles and smiles brighten my days I’ll always blow your clouds away -sun or son? Your joy is catching The way you run at the world laughing Exploring all the gifts of life and I’m here to block the knife Sometimes my lioness roars Other times she comforts and adores when I’m drowning Your […]
