Like many girls, I grew up on Disney Princesses and Barbie dolls. The idea that maybe these things give girls some false ideas of what to expect growing up and maybe teach them an unhealthy habit or two has been broached many times over. But NEVER in such a direct and simultaneously hilarious manner as... Continue Reading →
Overdo Updates Go Here.
It would seem that this space has been pretty neglected. For several months. So, you’re saying to yourself “Constance, what in the world have you been up to? What’s the fucking deal?” I fell off after the holidays. Most of my previous posts were about the build up to BizarroCon 2010. Then my brain was... Continue Reading →
Belated Christmas Fiction.
I had hoped to post this by Christmas. Turns out...the holidays are kind of a busy time. Better late than never. (Plus i needed to put something in this blog, right?) ___________________________________________________________ Asleep in my bed, the sound of the front door latching shut woke me. I lay there, staring off into the shadows that... Continue Reading →
inspiration and books and gifts, oh my!

Oregon, at least the 74 acres of it that I... Continue Reading →
Anticipation, gratitude, excitement. YES.

I shut down and don't write a damn thing. Fortunately I think that I have reharnessed my pen and have begun... Continue Reading →
Some words about things, on a Thursday.
I would like to begin with what is happening all of 3 feet away from me: A couple, an awkward one at that, arguing. The male- gawky and gangly. The female- a terribly attractive, Americanized Asian girl. They can't seem to agree on a thing. They stand in a corner, looking at hosiery and "couple's... Continue Reading →
The blue sparking beast that ate my words.
Thursdays it is! I had some technical difficulties over the last week or so, which prevented me from keeping my word so far as posting on Tuesday. This actually ended up being a good thing, since I realized that I have two friends who post their own links the same days. (BRoadcast & The Rock... Continue Reading →
eavesdropping-invention vs. reality
And here you were thinking I was just weird. You would be mostly correct.
