Source. If you know me, you probably know I really like animals—especially those of the anthropomorphic variety. If you don't know what "anthropomorphic" means (I didn't for a long time XD), the word refers to "having a human form or human attributes" (via Merriam-Webster). Basically, if you take an animal, vegetable, or inanimate object and … Continue reading The allure of fur and feather | Why I prefer writing (and drawing) animals to humans
Rambles
WandaVision, Enola Holmes + a Texas snowpocalypse
Hey, y'all! I feel like rambling, so I'm going to ramble. What about? Well, the main three things I wanna talk about are two new fandoms I've become a part of, and that Texas got snow. You read that right. Snow. But *waves hand dismissively* more on that later. *slaps table* Let's talk about WandaVision, … Continue reading WandaVision, Enola Holmes + a Texas snowpocalypse
Looking back and looking forward
For various reasons—some common and some more personal—2020 has felt both swift and slow in passing. It was definitely a different year, with new experiences and new challenges.

Here it … Continue reading Fleck Blackstar: The Black Star of Kingston

Been a bit since I last posted; sorry about that. But there'll be another Inktober post coming up soon! Well, this post is bound to be ramble-y. Here we go. Phew. I've officially submitted my college application—including having an in-person totally-not-scary interview with the provost—and am currently waiting to see whether or not I've been … Continue reading College, Green Ember, and Bella Italia
John Derian, and other autumn things
For better or for worse, it's around this time of year that I start craving a change of scenery—literally. For those of you who don't know, "fall" in Texas isn't a whole lot different from summer. The trees stay green, the weather stays hot, and—despite my desperate attempts to wear my beloved jeans—we are all … Continue reading John Derian, and other autumn things
Lattice crusts, horror movies, and Winnie-the-Pooh
Well, with the exception of zoning out during the presidential debate, moaning over yet another embarrassing loss by the Houston Texans, and tackling the mailbox every day to see whether S. D. Smith's latest book has arrived, this past week or so has been largely uneventful. *cough* Thus far, the school year is looking promising. … Continue reading Lattice crusts, horror movies, and Winnie-the-Pooh
