Queen of Wistful Nightmares
Still scrambling. Still confused. I’m about to drag myself downstairs to take my medication. Unfortunately, I need drugs to stay alive. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t touch any of this stuff. I’m going to avoid realityTV. After watching “Little Women: NY,” I found myself screaming at the people on the screen. Size does not dictate… Continue reading

So… I Have An Idea… It’s A Scary Idea… But It’s MY Idea
I went and purchased a copy of my own book… with the idea that I’ll re-read and rewrite it. I wish I could share the name and whatnot on my blog, but my actual name is tied to it. And… so is my address. XD Not saying that any of my readers would do me… Continue reading

I’m Not That Bitter… An Apparent Storytelling Manifesto
So… I like to tell myself that I’m not angry or bitter over this, but the fact that I consulted Copilot on anything tells you something. I am sensitive about my writing at times and just want some reassurance. Unfortunately, none of my family or even friends are willing or able to provide that. I… Continue reading

Writing
Writing. Since uploading “The Unknown,” I have been hit with a barrage of rude comments. One person also suggested that I pursue a less harmful hobby. You see… “The Unknown” is an entirely AI written fanfiction, and I made it a point to be upfront with that. So… I’ll share the comments here and my… Continue reading

3:13pm – 3:19pm So, I have decided to start my own website. (Does it count as my own if it’s through here?) MissLyst.com I’ll be clear. I don’t plan to try to make any money off the site. I just want a brand page. Now I can control the appearance of the blog and have… Continue reading
