Happy Samhain/Halloween on a #TBT

Picture it. Seattle. 19🤐. Your favorite Saturday Morning Cartoon is Rainbow Brite, and your mother, a great seamstress (seriously - this is not an exaggeration), promises to make you the best Rainbow Brite costume... AND she freaking did!  I still can't get over the wig made of yarn and how poofy the dress was. What a night. I've never had a better costume! This, in fact, became a family costume as my cousin would wear it the following year. I think she might have won a costume prize! All that reminiscing to say, I hope you all are enjoying the magic of this night! 🎃👻

Lit like the North

I recently took a trip to Seattle, my hometown. It was nice to be back there and to be able to do some of the touristy stuff you don't do at places when you call them home. My friends and I headed down to Pike Place Market, and in one of the cool, creepy, magic, majestic shops, I found this dude or dudette. The moment I believed they could have landed in Seattle all the way from Mississippi, I could not resist. I knew they had to come home with me. I'm still looking for the perfect spot to put them in my home, but boy, what a beauty! 😍

Here Comes the Storm... Last Tuesday, I spent some time with the witches, learning about the local flora and their magical properties. After living in Chicago for over four years, this was my first time visiting Bunker Hill. It was a massive chunk of land, and though I'm still confused as to where the hill is (this girl is from Seattle and lived in SF,  I know a thing or two about hills), I had a fantastic time and hope to make the trek back as soon as possible! The next time, though, I would prefer not to be caught in a thunderstorm while crossing a vast plain of a field. It was like being in the largest MMA ring and waiting to be struck down! I'll keep enjoying my thunderstorms from the comfort of my home! Before the Storm...

Green Dress & White Chunky Heels

Who am I to judge a chunky heel?  👀 Welcome to my blog! I'm sure I'll just ramble a lot here. Bring you into my introverted world, which means I'll start most of my sentences: "I saw this on TikTok" or "According to TikTok," but that's entertaining, right?  I'm currently in the querying trenches with my novel When Grace Fell, a new-wave horror novel about a young girl haunted by her best friend. It's a rough game, let me tell ya! I'm also trying to make a functional website...could use some help on that one in all honesty! Anyway, stick around. Maybe I'll say something funny and/or informative! -C
