“Take your broken heart, make it into art.”

It’s difficult to put into words what Carrie Fisher meant to me; what she meant to a lot of us. I never had the opportunity to meet her, but I felt connected to her through her words. Carrie was truly one of the most brilliant authors. I found her books at a very painful time in my life and I felt like she was speaking directly to me. She was so candid and witty especially when it came to discussing mental health. Hearing her talk about it so openly gave me the courage to explore my own struggles and feelings. Carrie was unequivocally herself. She will forever be our Princess and our General.

Reposting some old art from my @talkie_dreams account, because I'm only really on this one these days. I'm going to add captions and/or short stories to them on here. +++++++++++++++++++ "Untitled" - ink on paper | 2016 Sometimes I still hear his laughter in the walls. They're muffled. Quiet. Barely there. However, when I am alone, they grow louder. I just know he's leaning against the inside of the wall. His face pressed against the concrete in a twisted grimace. His every breath laughing. Laughing. LAUGHING! He laughs until you go insane. Until you laugh as he does. Every breatha a laugHa haha hahaha hahAhaHa HahAHahaHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! #art #darkart #horror #horrorart #laughter #haha #creature #drawing #ink #inkdrawing #shockaholic #talkiedreams https://www.instagram.com/p/ClbYwGPM4QD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Honestly in light of recent developments the Reading Rush is trash but I did read 7 books last week, which had never happened before, even if they’re relatively short books, so I’m still proud of myself.

Also I realized that I didn’t put in ratings for these books, so real quick (more to have it written down somewhere than because anybody asked):

A Song for Ella Grey: 1/5

The Black Flamingo: 4.5/5

Dead Poets Society: 2.5/5

The Tea Dragon Society: 4/5

Witchy: 3.5/5

Shockaholic: 3.5/5

The Little Prince: 5/5

Currently listening:

Two of these are holds that I've been waiting on, the other was a curiosity. I'm listening in order of length.

So far, Shockaholic is brilliantly funny! It's only a couple of hours long, so I'll be able to start How to be an Antiracist later today.

Edit: Each of these books gave me plenty to think about, I wouldn't mind a physical copy of How to be an Antiracist so I can make notes.

What you'll have of me, after I journey to that great Death Star in the sky, is an extremely accomplished daughter, a few books, and a picture of a stern-looking girl wearing some kind of metal bikini, lounging on a giant drooling squid, behind a newscaster informing you of the passing of Princess Leia after a long battle with her head.

Carrie Fisher, Shockaholic

I can really go to town hurting my own feelings. I know where they are.

May Wrap Up!

I knew I wouldn’t be reading much this month since college has been super, super busy and I have had a ton of work to do! I’ve been inundated with assignments and essays and it had left me with little to no time to read. Anything I have attempted to read has not held my interest. I have been in a slump. ugh. I have also been having some general stress in my life trying to sort out what I want to…
