Seasons Come and Go
We wholeheartedly wanted Winter, with wonderful welcoming weather. Whenever we watched Winter washing wondrously wherever. Winter wonderland while wrapping winterberry with wholesome wishes, waiting with warm walnuts, weary with wine Wassail. Wrapping Wisemen without whosoever wanted, wearing waistcoats, we wallowed while Winter withdrew with willfulness. White Winter went wonderfully, welcoming warmer weather.

This Is Me
I came out on my Tumblr Blog and only a handful of people know my sexual orientation. I always knew I wasn't straight. I first noticed in High School, I was attracted to some of the girls, some I knew, some I didn't know. I'm afraid to tell my family because I know that not all of them are supportive of the LGBTQIAP+ community. I never gave much thought to dating, male or female or anyone else, mainly because I just wasn't interested. After I left High School I kind of pushed my sexuality to the side. I started rethinking what my sexuality was. Was I Gay? Was I Bisexual? I actually thought I went both ways in my early 20s. Even though I was more attracted to women, I still liked guys.

Hecatomb
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The woods were a wretched place to be at night. The cold crisp air blew towards the cabin. Winnie felt a shiver, not from the cold but from that cabin. *Hoot Hoot* She fixed her eyes on an owl, who slowly turned its head and stared at her and the young girl. The Owl watched as they made their way to the cabin, walking the stoned path to the front door, Winnie held the young girl's hand firmly. The wind suddenly stopped howling and nothing could be heard in the dead of night. The girls heard a thunderous voice that made the younger one feel as though the skin had been peeled off of her skin.

Rewatching The Twilight Saga as an Adult
I don't even know where to start. So The Twilight Saga has been on Netflix for a bit. I swear the last time I watched it was when I was in my late teens. I'm 28 now. Like every other teenage girl in the late 2000s and early 2010s, I was obsessed with these movie and characters. I wanted a boyfriend like Edward or Jasper, I wanted a guy to be as over protective with me and save me from guys like Edward, because I thought that shit was swoon worthy.I just finished rewatching the Saga and oh my goodness it was just pure cringe! The way Edward tries to "protect" Bella and "keep her safe" saying her safety if basically his number one priority, whether it's keeping her from seeing Jacob, or breaking her truck so she can't go anywhere. I never realised at 14 how much of a giant RED FLAG this dude was. His constant whining about Bella being his only reason for living and Bella wasn't any better. I forgot how annoying and totally boring she is. I love Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson and they did a good job but their characters was just bad. Edwards is controlling, he's a stalker even after they get together, he's a creeper who watched Bella sleep, he tries to take his immortal life just because he thought Bella was dead. I swear in the second movie when Bella was running to stop him from revealing himself, Bella jumped into his arms and the first thing this dummy says is "Heaven". Like, get the hell out of here! That was so cringy. Would anybody want a significant other who basically just lives and breathes for you? No. I certainly hope not. Bella is just one giant cliche. She's everything I hate about girls in YA.

I Wrote about Toxic relationships in my Stories as a preteen and Teenager.
I remember as a kid I wrote so many story ideas. I was inspired by the incredible and magnificent Hayao Miyazaki after "Month of Miyazaki" which showed masterpieces like Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the Sky, and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. You would think a man who wrote these gems, I would know better than to write about girls being OK with overprotective boyfriends who kill when even the slightest person looks at them wrong, but I was 12-14, I didn't know any better. I did fall in love with Twilight when It came out in 2008 and was just as obsessed with it as everybody else was.

Don't Go Near the Lake at Night
Henry’s mother had called to tell him about his fathers sudden disappearance and death. He didn’t want to visit his old hometown because growing up he thought it was creepy and boring. A small lake town in the middle of nowhere, the population was barely 200 the last time he was there. He drove through the wooded area, looking at the many trees and upcoming lake houses. Henry could see his mother standing outside their home. She looked the same since he last saw her a few years ago, the only difference was her hair looked shorter and her eyes were watery, no doubt from crying for his Dad.

Always
*Mary was on her way home from her 2-week business trip which ended with a big Halloween party when she decided to stop by her grandmother's house for a visit. She pulled up to her grandmother’s house and knocked on her door. Greeting her at the door was a middle-aged woman wearing an all-black dress and dark brown hair kept in a low bun. Her skin was pale but she was very beautiful. She looked like she belonged in the Edwardian era. Mary wondered who the woman was and thought she was just dressed like that for Halloween.
