    The last few days have been tense between me and Damien. He’s been working nonstop on his lyrics. When he does have free time, he’s rarely ever in a good mood. I love him, I really do, but sometimes it feels as though he doesn’t want me to. It’s as if everything I do upsets… Continue reading

    April 4, 1988

    We celebrated Robert’s 25th birthday today. The entire day I told myself that it was too soon to be celebrating birthdays. But there was something about him. He made me laugh teeth out and snorting laughs. He listened when I talked about my family. He made my days a little brighter. It just felt right. … Continue reading

    The One that Got Away

    You know who it is, you’re picturing him in your mind right now. Remembering the way he looked at you when he was a few drinks in and his eyes couldn’t lie anymore.

    Revenge

    Danny looks lovely in her olive green velvet dress. Her black hair falls in a curtain of waves. The blush on her cheeks gets darker when she sees Liam waiting at the bottom of the stairwell. He’s smiling from ear to ear. His blue eyes twinkle as they take her in.“You look radiant, Danny.”“Thank you.… Continue reading

    The Decision

    I wake up to a loud knock on the door. Then I feel the bed dip, and I know Lexi is awake. She must have gotten home late last night because I didn’t hear her come in. “Jade, wake up! I must tell you about the girl I was with last night!” she gushed. I… Continue reading

    I Don’t Know What I’m Doing

    I don’t know what I’m doing. I don’t even know how to get to a place where I know what I’m doing. I feel my lunch in the back of my throat, lingering there, just waiting to come out. It’s making my head hurt. I finish my fourth bottle of water, so I’m not dehydrated.… Continue reading

    “Where’s Carmen?” Linda asks, coming out of Carmen’s bedroom. “She’s out with her boyfriend,” Jasmine says casually from the couch. “Again! It’s almost curfew. Dad is going to flip if she’s not back in the next hour!” Linda shouts. Jasmine shrugs her shoulders, unaffected by the situation. Linda grabs the remote and shuts the TV… Continue reading

About Me

Hi there! I’m thrilled to have you join me on my blog. I write fiction, nonfiction, and everything in between.

In my free time, I like to keep busy with a variety of hobbies. I’m an avid reader and writer, I love to knit, crochet, and embroider.

At the end of the day, though, my main priority is spending time with my loved ones. Whether it’s traveling or just spending quality time together, I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by those I care about.
