ii can't find my draft notebook! i don't know which bag i put it in. not my journal, mind you. the one i write story stuff in.
i found an old album of the stray cats and danced around crazily. i'm getting a belly, so i'm trying to see if i can dance it off in my jammies. haha! or maybe i should just stop drinking, what do you think?
that's it really. not much going on in my small town life.

I hate the new DEV ID
I really do. I'm not a hobbyist, professional or whatnot. I'm a writer. I write. WHAT ARE YOU DOING DA? I loved that I could stay here and just say I was herding llamas.

SQUEEE: VINDICATION!!!
After what feels like years of getting rejected for publications, I'm happy to announce that one of my poems is getting published! :dance: More news when I get it but it will be part of an anthology of Contemporary Philippine Literature. I feel really happy about it (believe it, I thought I was getting another rejection email/letter and almost trashed the thing, but thank heavens I didn't.)
Three (THREE) of my short stories are also being considered for publication, and I'm sooooooo excited. Boys, After The Everything and FuckIT, which I've moved out of PRL for the time being. Boys is one my personal favorites--and has been the most popular
Of pie, rain and other adventures
We make pie today. It seems to be the perfect sort of day to make it. Rain falls quietly outside, but the sun is shining. The storm that graced the northern part of the islands is gone, but here it rains almost every day.
There are extra apples in the fridge, all sliced and ready to go. We hope we have enough for two. I make the crust while Yuji preps the filling. We switch--he rolls out dough, I cover apples in sugar, flour and cinnamon. We stuff apples into the plate, making sure there is no room. He makes the lattice top, I push butter into the squares. Syrup spills over the sides. We worry about it burning and place it inside another pie
Rediscovering haiku
A flower in a glass bowl is my first memory of haiku. A particularly enthusiastic art teacher of ours in fifth grade plopped it down in front of us and told us to WRITE A HAIKU. Sadly (and now looking back the memory shames me slightly), I distinctly remember ignoring it and creating a horrible poem about something else, and bugs. Nowadays I find myself watching things more, striving for conciseness as I rediscover haiku.
