I love to write. I've almost always hated sharing my work.

I write a lot of things, so I split this page up into a few different subsections of writing. As with everything, this site is a work in progress, and I never expect it not to be. I'm still slowly adding pieces as I find them in the endless labyrinth known as my hard drive.

-----this sidebar has links to each category

you can also click the names of each section below to visit their pages. you can return to the writing zone at anytime with the navbar above.

(relatively) fully baked thoughts

As a kid, I never thought I'd write any nonfiction. After all, why write about boring history and things that can happen, when I could write about dragons and magic and wonder? Yet now, it's about the only thing I can write. My nonfiction works are pieces of me I thought so important I had to process them into a shareable format. Even if the central focus isn't quite me, my nonfiction is, at it's core, me.

half baked thoughts

I like to gush about my passions. I don't have a large variety of interests, but the ones that I do have are everything to me. and many times, I struggle to fully convey or even find the opportunities to talk about the things I really love, the thoughts that come to my brain that I deem to be of intense importance. I've left this section of the writing zone for myself to indulge in those thoughts, to allow myself to feel without (self-prescribed) embarrassment.

half baked thoughts (with purpose)

I've been getting more and more comfortable with poetry lately. It's not my favorite medium to write in, sure, but it's something that I am a lot less hesitant to recognize the value in. It's an incredibly powerful tool to help process complex emotions and feeling that sitting and mulling it over just isn't enough for. I write it on occasion, but my poetry tends to be the work I am more proud of. It's the best way to illustrate how my brain works and thinks and formulates thoughts, while being relatively coherent enough for someone else to understand.

things that i made up

If I told child me that this would be the least populated section of their website one day, I think they would cry. I have a deep love for fiction, to the point where I'm really a perfectionist about my fictional works. At the time of writing this, I have nothing I'm willing to actually post in this section. I leave this section here because I have to. Child-me demands it. Maybe there will be something there some day.
