Wow... Girl Abroad by Elle Kennedy is SUCH a rollercoaster of a read! Even if you're not a fan of love triangles, Kennedy pulls hers off effortlessly with no cringe. 4/5 stars, would recommend.

Took a step away from the keyboard to be with the kids. We found a friend outside!

A sneak peek from A Ghost in the Middle Kingdom!

The moment I handed over my passport with nothing but hope in my heart.

This is the kind of vibe I live for.
Get outside! Then come back in and write about it, lol.

My Totoro garden party was gifted a wilting false shamrock leaf! Whether they will consume it or nurse it back to health is TBD.

A rushing mountain stream after the rain.

A rushing mountain stream after the rain. This stream is probably very small, but after heavy rains, it was swollen and cascading over rocks and under rhododendron, through the woods, and to the river.

I adopted a new spider plant and my toddler asked me why I have some big grass. 🤣

I mean, for all it's supposed rarity, it really does look like grass!

Singing my praises for fellow memoirist Suzanne Groves and her harrowing journey of narcissistic abuse in her book, You'll See. Powerful. Fast-paced. Raw. These words will leave you a mess.

Into the book store
And spread open the pages
Sniff, sniff, sniff... what bliss

I landed in the city of Jinan, Shandong Province on February 11, 2011, at midnight. That's when the journey all started.

Love. Deceit. The Chinese police. Life takes us unexpected places.

29 days left!

I can't believe there's only ONE MONTH left before the release of my memoir, A Ghost in the Middle Kingdom! I've been eagerly awaiting this moment since I started writing in April of 2024.

Today's big mood. Bipolar sucks.

Light the cigarette
And say, "I'm sorry, my love."
I messed up again
