A lot of female singer-songwriters of the 90's achieved their biggest triumphs in the period and that eventually became that. Paula Cole, for instance, had a successful period during the 90's that petered out after that time. True, she wasn't the only one of her peers with this fate – check the introductory statement to this post –, yet the reasons why differ from one to another. Paula Cole – this is my personal view – intended to have a different career than the one she actually got. I mean, her records do not lack in prowess, they're fine, they struggle to find an identity for her. While she did locate the latter recently, I keep asking myself – would she have been more accepted, had she had that during the 90's?

throw a bone, i’m finally home
buck/eddie | 17.9k | rated e
for @colonoscopys; i love you like a dog 2: christmas boogaloo
The clothes are still heaped over the duvet messily, but the suitcase, the massive cross-country-move-sized suitcase, is open and in the centre of the room, and Buck is sitting sadly inside it.
“Oh, Buck,” Eddie says softly, torn between unbearable fondness and an ache that threatens to crack his breastbone.
Buck’s endless legs are pretzeled tight, criss-crossed and tucked under him where he’s squeezed himself into the suitcase. He barely fits—he’s curled himself uncomfortably small and his knees are indented by the zipper teeth on either end.
He looks at Eddie, bottom lip pink and chewed to hell as he tries very valiantly to hold in a pout.
“Eddie, I—” he starts, and then cuts himself off, looking at the clothes on the bed and chewing his lip some more.
“Baby,” Eddie says, “do you wanna come with us?”
or, home for the holidays is a person, not a place, and a puppy can be for christmas and forever

just popping in here to say thank you
thank you for reading, thank you for being kind, thank you for being patient while I post my writing less frequently than I used to, thank you for participating in write night, thank you for being so generous and forgiving as I figure out my place in this space ❤️
turns out that having a job where you solve other people’s problems all day long leaves you with much less energy for solving your own plot problems — much less daydreaming, much less brainstorming, much less letting your mind meander — and every day, I miss it all so very much ❤️
things are still coming! slowly but surely (right now I’m working on On The Green and something for Frankie) but I just wanted to pop in here with a bit of an explanation about why things are taking a minute, but also mostly just to say thank you ❤️❤️❤️
