I totally just used my nose on my touchscreen because I had no hands free. This is a new low of which I'm oddly proud.

@fdouglasbrown @wendyhouse4 @yourmoneyisours HI!!! Proud of you Wendy :)

[Shelly Holder! @writinflower01]

I am being a very brave girl and killing my own damn spider. But my mantra right now is "Mommy, save me."

It's always so hard, coming home from writing class. Buzzing with stimulus, restless. Aching to actualize my lessons.

I love hockey. It's the angry love child of soccer and billiards.

Happy Friday the 13th! :)

And by "phrase", I mean three words. Four, if I'm lucky. And by "perfect", I mean I'll only rewrite it twice. #writinglife

[Shelly Holder! @writinflower01]

It's amazing, that feeling when you know you wrote the perfect phrase. I'll spend the next 6 months writing the rest of the poem, but still.

[Shelly Holder! @writinflower01]

Does watching this lion documentary and listening for interesting words count as a first draft of a poem? I'm calling this multi-tasking! :D

Detritus found cleaning my room: 3 lipsticks, 2 chapsticks, 6 packs of gum, half roll of mints, a tin of mints, 2 tissue packs, insanity.
