Memory Lane
Hello Dear, I’m back. I took some much needed “me time” to refresh. Of course you missed me. Sorry to leave you wondering if I was gone for good. Did you see Pete Davidson’s new Netflix special? He has a whole bit about his irl stalker. Good stuff, although he’s certainly not following the “grey rock” protocol. I suppose you can relate. His love interest looks a lot like Mindy Kaling, don’t you think? Maybe Mindy will play her in the made for TV movie about their love affair. I do so hope their love wins!
I’ve been going through a lot of my old blogs, the ones I made specifically for you. It’s been fantastic to reminisce. I loved writing back and forth to myself, pretending to be you, then writing as someone who sounded like they could be me, then writing as all the "evil" people I had involved to help me "gangstalk" you. Hahahaha, it really is such a genius set up. Pity it must remain a secret! Well, only kind of, I get to share the genius of my design here and it does appear I have some fans who check regularly, so that feels validating.
I have really been working on my writing style, my realism. I realize in the beginning a lot of what helped you peg me was that my writing was dripping with misogyny, my female characters sounded bubble-headed and vapid. Of course that’s fairly accurate, but many women are good at hiding that, so I’ve integrated that aspect of real life. I remember the all male team of writers from Seinfeld saying they didn’t know how to write Elaine. They decided to just write her as they would a man. She was a delightful character! I’ve adopted that technique and I feel it’s helping with the believability in my fables. I certainly am believing them!
Anyway, just a little hello to check in. I’ve been posting screenshots from my old Tumblrs on this blog so if you want to walk down memory lane with me, pop in. xoxo
