I’m just a girl who loves the written word (preferably in English), but I’m warning you.  I can spot a typo a mile away.  Someday I dream of working in a tiny, airless cubicle, just editing copy all day long.  Haha not really.  I want to be a librarian or a bookseller.  So for right now, I continue to plug away at the massive stack of books in my house before they topple over and crush me.

You think I’d be used to death by now. You think it’d be my best friend, sitting across from me at the local coffee shop, just chewing the proverbial fat. I’ve had plenty of second-hand experiences with it, yet very few which have affected me personally. I grew up across the street from the town cemetery, so death was a part of my daily existence. As kids, my friends and I would watch that foreboding, black hearse from a distance, just waiting for the mourners to dissipate. As soon as they we...

Every year I hold my breath when October rolls around. That's because I dread what's coming, Halloween. With three kids now, there's an air around here that resembles a newspaper office frantically trying to meet its deadline. It doesn't help that everyone and their brother in this small town ask my kids that age-old question: "And what are YOU going to be for Halloween this year?" Can they think of nothing else to talk about? Actually, my kids begin to think of the "perfect Halloween costume...

Wow, that took a lot of courage to post that, even to us anonymous readers. I admire your attempt to break the cutting habit by having a tatto there. Even smarter is the use of stars to symbolize your three children. Keep focusing on them and they will give you hope. Thanks for sharing and good luck! :)
Criticism / Letter to Society
This was very powerful. Your words reeled me in and didn't let go. I felt guilty, even though I don't know you personally, or anyone that this has happened to. At least I don't think I know anyone. I'm going to speak for many other people here when I say that I'm sorry if it seems the world is ignoring you. We're not. Many of us simply don't know and can't possibly imagine someone being treated the way you were. Reading this certainly has affected me and I'm sure it will for others as well. I...

Ahhh yes, I remember reading this before. I like how it reads and the changes you've made, but you're right. You need to come up with a different word for 'A' since Artistic is already part of the acronym. How about 'Abled' or 'Amazing'?
