So for the past several months, I’ve been afflicted by the worst case of writer’s block I’ve ever had. Unable to write anything, I spent months trying different methods (similar to trying to cure insomnia, which I also have a lot of experience with) with no luck. At the end of April, I finally hit on something that I could write a few thousand words a day without stopping or pulling out my hair.

 

I’ve read this twice now and I highly recommend it, even if you’re not a writer yourself. Gilbert makes a strong case for creativity in everyone’s daily life, even if it’s just a hobby. She has a lot of suggestions about how to express yourself and reasons for doing so.

Give it a read if you’re a professional creator (writer, poet, artist) or just someone who needs a creative outlet in your life.

 

 

 

So I nearly drowned at an oxygen bar to bring you Star Valley.

No, really.

Only me, right?

I went to Wyoming with KiKi to see the sights and get a feel for the place. KiKi gets carsick easily and has to drive everywhere she goes. So she drove me all over the entire state of Wyoming while I hung out the window to take photos. I really do have great friends. I can text them at Midnight on a Saturday and not even phase them.

“Want to go to Wyoming and look around?”
