my first stab at creative nonfiction: open.substack.com/pub/bellasli...

a sneak peek at my latest project, PIECEMEAL. this one's a character laboratory - a name i've given to an exercise i'm going to do at least once with each of my characters in order to get to know them more. meet Micah Grieves, my tragic, haunted MMC, i love him so much and i hope you all do as well

new story on my new Substack publication “From Heart to Page”! this one was a submission to a friends writing prompt challenge. i explored a new genre (post-apocalyptic horror) and it was so fun!

The kitten dreams of devouring the world

yes! this is so important! this is why i say “love you” after each conversation, even if im just going to the next room. one of my biggest fears is something happening to someone i love and them not knowing how i feel.

Tell them how you feel.

Whether it’s a partner, a friend, or a family member.

Whether you’ve known them for five minutes, or your whole life.

Remind them what they mean to you.

We get lost in the stress of it all, and we forget to do that sometimes.

So, let this be your reminder. 💙

Thank you so much for having me on, Bradley! I am so stoked that we were finally able to do this. Thank you for letting me rant about Greek mythology for like a hour <3

The first conflict to arise in Greek mythology was Uranus (Sky) forcing himself upon Gaea (Earth), with effects that would be felt for eons. This is reflected in Jenova’s meteorite striking the Planet at Gaea’s Cliff, still affecting Final Fantasy VII’s plot 2,000 years later.

Early Greek mythology was a bit loose, so they had to Titan things up a bit.

me: i’m gonna write a character with the saddest most incredible and edgy backstory of all time it’s gonna be not cliche at all and super subtle and perfectly well written no one’s gonna see it coming and so many tissues will be needed it’s gonna be awesome
