sierrademulder:
So here is the dealio: my second book is being released by Write Bloody Publishing at the end of January. I am extremely proud of this book and all the hard work I put into it.

As an artist
warpaintetiquette:
your top two priorities should be stopping yourself from becoming narcissistic, and doing your art.
Here is one way to stop yourself from becoming narcissistic: read other people’s art. Support other people’s art. Maybe tomorrow they will be supporting you:

Poeticartifacts: Warning: Rant. →
poeticartifacts:
You are only stuck somewhere if you want to be. There will be thousands of excuses for you to sit in a miserable hole with other miserable souls who have shared so much time and misery with you that you feel they are magnets, and you’re made of metal. Leaving them for your own greener pastures that would not be for them will indeed raise their discontent for you. If they are...

It begins, “ This English is not enough”
It ends, “I will live as long as you love me”
Translated loosely, it goes: my language is insufficient. It is a spoon of sand to the flood. My words do not know how to take the things within and drag them through me. My throat is an unstrung fiddle in an orchestra of violins.
We are often taught as schoolchildren that English is the most difficult...

None of us were creators then Only destroyers Leaving empty space in our wake. Running backwards Thinking that what we saw Was us, Rushing towards oblivion

you know that numb feeling →
you get
when you’re laughing at something that’s at its core, a little evil?
like when your brother kills a snake
and you gotta find a way to make it feel okay.
we try to make it go away
by fueling it with a steroid like hatred
but hatred is basically just fear
so i can say “i hate snakes”
and that’s why it’s okay to kill them
but really im just afraid of them
okay,
the point is,

An Open Letter To Your Newborn Twins →
Boys,
You couldn’t understand how carefully these hands
thumbed those blue eyes into you.
How I pulled your mother, by one finger
onto the island of your father’s birth.
I beat her towards him
with the two legs of the woman I left her for.
If I were honest,
Id say the first trimester of your lives
weren’t devoid of nightmares,
set to the tune of thumping stairwells.
A rush of black blood down...

Reassurance to Sierra in High School →
Don’t worry. The acne will go away, sort of. You will stop fighting with your sisters. This will be because of two things: your inability
to steal their clothing and the realization that they are older, cooler versions of you. Your bully will end up shaving her head and going to jail
or she will become a lawyer and have a nice car and six babies. You will have no idea. You will forget what...
