I make a spiced chai from scratch. Have you ever boiled it all up in pan? Amazing, and so creamy! I love loose leaf, but it is a bit of an effort at times. About your novel - did you take part in NaNo? And do you fancy being my support?
No, I’ve never done it boiled before. :O I will have to try that!...

Chai? I think I actually love you. Do you use a blend or make it from scratch?
Love: United Through Chai.
Anyway! I just steep a tea bag and add milk and sugar, but I’ve really been wanting to start using loose leaves as of late, especially ever since I stumbled across Teavana. Oh, my, word.

For me, it either won’t write itself or the characters take over and I end up a passenger on their crazy ride. If I try to throw my weight around to make a story go the way I want, they fight back…and win. Stubborn asses.
Exaaaactly. Fortunately I wrote the first draft of it this past November, so I’m doing a rewrite...

Have faith - and tea! Night lovely, glad to have met you! Happy 2012
Tea! Yes, yes you’re speaking my language now. I think it’s about time for me to put the kettle on and make some chai, because this diet Coke is not doing it for me. ;D And thank you! Happy New Year to you too, lovely~!

It's that time of night again!
That time of night where I turn off the internet, plug in my headphones, and finish the next chapter of my work-in-progress novel stare mournfully at the page that isn’t writing itself.

Spoken Word Sunday?
Hello all of my darlings! I hope your day is bringing you joy (and words words words!). I’m going to be gone until the evening, so until we meet again, I bid the all farewell (and thank you to everyone for the poems and for reblogging that graphic, you guys kick some major ass!).
That being said, I was thinking about doing a Spoken Word Sunday, because I’ve never done anything like...

I do that sometimes. Something to do with the awesomeness I exude.
It’s your irresistible charm!
So many people I’ve met on here in the last couple of days have blown my mind, you’re definitely one of them!

Realization about poets and a challenge to you...
We love poetry.
Well duh.
But it’s so much more than that. We breathe it, it falls from us like old skin and bones and we put it to paper because all of those skin and bones would cause quite a scene if someone walked in.
“What—what are you doing with human skin and bones?! Are these real?!” she asked with her back against the wall and a .45 in her hand because clearly...
Everything is fine

I’m starting to think Depressed people are just those who the media didn’t manage to convince that they are happy “everything is fine”

4: I'll still watch when you go, though.
I used to be terrified in the dark in that vulnerable place between sleep and breathing you in.
What if you picked apart my flaws as my eyes fell shut? What if I spoke in my sleep and told you everything?
But now I am terrified in the dark because I’m afraid that when I wrap my arms around you, I may break you.

3: Her love for you is an affliction in me.
Lipstick at your jawline, her perfume in your hair.
You always smelled so sweet to me. But I can’t stomach how her cheap perfume lingers on your fingertips and her breath pauses at your lips when you turn to smile and say, “Isn’t she something?”
The moon for pearls
mysearchforwisdom:
If it’s what you want
Then I will look to the heavens,
And Find Polaris,
The brightest star in the sky.
I will,
Pluck it from its cosmic curtain,
And place it on a chain,
To be worn around,
Your neck,
Like a queen,
Honored for your majesty.
I absolutely love this. I’m going to write it down and put it up on my wall. Phenomenal.

Hello and good day, tumblr!
Happy New Year’s/New Year’s Eve, folks!
I’m popping in to say a few things.
You’re all fucking lovely.
You all blow my mind.
The amount of talent that you guys exude is insurmountable. Never. Stop. Writing.
So that being said, make it an awesome day, tumblr.
And I’m curious: what are you guys reading right now? For me it’s Jane Eyre, but I’d love to...

Trust me darling, it was broken long before you came along

and we wind up in…

2: I painted a picture for you, once.
It’s a wasteland here. You knew that already, of course. You’re not blind.
Look upon these barren lands, these broken hands, these withered trees, but stop looking with your eyes.
Look with the sound of broken bones beneath your feet. Look with the scent of soft ash as it floats from air to lungs. Look with the darkness, so you cannot see. Look with my heart.
I painted a...

licoriceassassin asked: My becoming a writer just sort of... Happened. I've always had a knack for words and languages - and since I never was the sporty type of a kid, books and, consequently, writing was the most natural choice. As for questions: do you listen to music while writing? If yes, do you have a prepared 'writing playlist', or is it just 'whatever's playing is OK'?
alphabet-pony said: Preludes and Nocturnes!!! I found it for $9 a few months back and almost made a scene in the bookstore. I’ve been a Sandman fan since I was younger because of my mom. Started with loving the art, then the story.

peliades asked: Thank you for following me XD As for the question: Why do YOU write? In answer to yours - I got into writing because I needed to escape reality. Badly. Simple as that.
travestyintechnicolour asked: My "gateway drug" into writing was shitty, angsty "prose" written while I was in middle school. I cringe to stumble upon sheets of it now, but it is what I evolved (dramatically) from. I had one very kind friend who also happened to be a good liar, who told me that what I wrote back then was good, beautiful even! My fragile, sensitive, seventh-grade soul probably would have...
knives-of-summertime-deactivate asked: Gateway Drug into writing: Poe and Dickinson when I was 11. I was in 6th grade and spent a lot of time in the school library. That seems like forever ago. Shit.

Okay folks, it's question and answer time.

Firstly, feel free to shoot me an ask (anonymous or no) asking anything you’d like.
Secondly (and more importantly), I would like you to answer one of the following questions:
