ain't nobody got time for sitting still
It's been so long since I've written anything just for fun, that it feels a little bit weird to even be trying right now. I wish I could pinpoint what happened to make this all seem more like a chore than something I actually enjoy doing so I could avoid it in the future, but... Continue Reading →
