Dear friends,
My parents surprised me with a gift that made me cry. My TYPEWRITER is a refurbished Royal from 1936, and I couldn't believe my eyes or my fingers when I found it Christmas morning.
What does this mean? Well, I can compile my work in the most vintage way possible - exactly in the manner of my great uncle and his poetry stash, actually. AND...
I deeply want to sell prints! It's not the jewelry shop I still want to open for extra student income, but I would love to send typed, signed prints to anyone who would like a poem of mine. (It won't be as smudged as that first attempt above, heh.) I am also quite open to typing out your favorite famous poem or quote. (Robert Frost, anyone?)
If this is you, comment below with which poem(s) you would like! Based on some Etsy prices, I think I'll only charge $5 per piece. (I have Paypal to make things easy.)
Also! Since one of my 2018 goals is to work up the courage to sell more art, I also want to make the official offer for photography prints. There is a company through whom I order canvases (sold some to Nobody - thank you again, my dear!), and they have quite good deals on many sizes! I charge cost + $20.
Thanks for reading! My gallery is wide open for orders of any sort. Also, note or comment with any questions! Love y'all.
Devious Journal Entry
I woke this morning somehow a bit homesick for bygone deviantart days, so I thought I would shout into the void for a moment to see if any old readers echo back. How is everyone?
At present, my life is full of profound blessings and tragedy. On one side, I have moved cities to finish up my grad school internship. I graduate in 2 months, and hopefully begin employment nearby. I grew in my faith exponentially over 2020, and most of that is due to getting involved in an incredible mission-focused church. They have loved me so well and so biblically since I arrived, even from a distance as I needed to temporarily move back in with my parents to
NaPoWriMo Wrap-up 2020
Hello my friends,
I have completed year 6 of my NaPoWriMo streak! Again, struggled to keep up while schooling and working from home, but it happened!
As you may note from the last poem, I am making plans to withdraw from DeviantArt slowly. I will post another journal soon with my thought process and next steps.
I hope you enjoy, and if you also took the challenge, link your favorite piece down below!
The Valley | July 2019
Hello artfolks,
I haven't updated you all in quite some time. Honestly, I'm writing this update to gather a few prayers and a little emotional support.
To begin, a recap 2019 so far: I made it through spring semester fairly gracefully, despite several leadership changes at work and in campus ministry. In May I stumbled through finals week with a terrible cold but a shockingly intact 4.0! At last I donned a cap and robe and walked across the stage having earned a bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. And glory to God, I applied, earned, and accepted my place in the graduate program. Miraculously, I also soared thr
NaPoWriMo Wrap-Up 2019
Hey friends,
Around day 18, I gave up. I told all my accountability poets I was tapping out. I was already so behind, school and work deadlines were looming, and I just couldn't see my way clear to finishing.
On the 29th I reread "Emily's Climb" and sprinted to the finish line. 13 poems, two days. And I'm so glad I did.
