The Justin drama returns, as does my portrayal of a cold-hearted bitch. I don't understand why Justin is into me. I don't even like the 13 year -old version of me.
Mortification Monday
There's no video commentary for today's vlog because my a**hole dogs tried to ruin it. I just want to note that I must really gotten annoyed with a boy if I faked going to my grandma's house just to avoid talking to him on the phone. August 15-16
Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 8 “Everybody Hurts”
Rejection is a huge part of being a writer. Most of the time, it's other people telling you no: your critique group, contests, agents and editors. But sometimes, you have to be the one to say it and it sucks. Saying no to someone sucks even worse that being rejected (at least for me). Sometimes … Continue reading Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 8 “Everybody Hurts”
Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 7 “Gimme Sympathy”
I can't help but smile anytime Metric's "Gimme Sympathy" comes on the radio/ my itunes DJ/ or Spotify station. There's something really melodic and soothing about this and it reminds me that I'm not alone in this. Get Hot Get too close to the flame Wild open space Talk like an open book Sign me … Continue reading Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 7 “Gimme Sympathy”
Mortification Monday or True Love is Watching Your Crush Barf
Today's Mortification Monday continues the Danielle and Justin saga at camp. Camp is winding dawn, and there is of course a milk-drinking contest at lunch which leads to a very memorable dance. I think the best part of this entry was that I was perfecting the "bitch face" at 13.

Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 5 “Firework”
This might not be the best song for this particular playlist, maybe it's more inspirational, but it's my blog and I don't care. I working on revisions today and my itunes DJ thought I needed to listen to Katy Perry. She was right. Because I am a firework. Baby, you're a firework Come on, … Continue reading Rejection Playlist Volume 2, Track 5 “Firework”
WIP Playlist: Lethal
The best way for me to get back into a manuscript, particularly one I haven't looked at in some time, is to listen to the playlist I made when I did the first draft. Fact: I don't write well unless I have music. It keeps me from thinking about things unrelated to my WIP and it … Continue reading WIP Playlist: Lethal
