8/17/26: i got my wisdom teeth out. this blows. i didnt realize until now that every book, every movie, every social media post, is about food. not just food--solid food! i am soooo hungry. the good news is ive been eating a lot of mashed potatoes. my friend abeje got her wisdom teeth out the day before me, so we're on parallel journeys of pain and hunger. yay!!! i finished wuthering heights. it was soooo good but so sad. now i'm reading bunny by mona awad because i think it might be a good comp for my novel. have been watching a couple tv shows including widow's bay and the other two, both good! widow's bay is so scary...
8/3/26: welcome to my blog...i taught myself html today and built this website. thank you neocities! i'm on summer vacation which means i have nothing to do which is theoretically great but actually not because i have no structure and i end up sleeping late and feeling restless. but i am so so so close to being 100% done with a draft of my novel--i finished a 54k word draft that was just missing an ending, and sent it off to some friends to read. so hopefully they can tell me how to end it lol. my cat babooshka has asthma and i'm trying to teach her how to use an inhaler and it's not going well. i think that's it...TTFN!
