People, I Need a Brownie!

Jess2 Comments

I've been working a while now on a book (well, to be fair, on a couple of books). I cut a snippet into a 500 word scene and submitted it to a flash fiction contest in the summer.

Bravery Isn’t Lack of Fear: It’s Action Despite Fear

Jess3 Comments

The Huffington Post had an article today titled The 8 Bravest Things I Ever Said. I'm intrigued.I have to say I disagree with snarking at people parked in a handicapped zone unless you know 100% that said person isn't handicapped AND they don't have a placard. Plenty of nosy-nannies snark at people who have every right… Continue reading Bravery Isn’t Lack of Fear: It’s Action Despite Fear

I’m Too Lazy To Write Two Posts: Cross Posting "Dear UnSubtle Gym Rat: My Crotch Is Not For You

JessLeave a comment

While I mostly keep my other blog just to track my progress in my personal self-torture adventures, tonight's fun at the gym made me chuckle when I re-read it. If you don't find it amusing, that's cool: I'm likely high on something...like muscle pain. Or idiots. Dear Unsubtle Gym Rat...
