Solipsistic

Most writing is. But Goddamn if I don't love writing. Everyone I've ever fallen for has been able to discuss it pretty damn well. I need that quality in a partner.

I truly believe this

It's entirely possible to miss someone and not want them back in your life. Relationships often have a season; those pass and are gone, sometimes temporarily, sometimes forever. It's something to remember. 

Tired

Life is life-ing. That's what Chris said today when I met her to do some writing. I'd never heard that phrase and I like it. It describes what I work with on a daily basis. It so often feels like there are a million things going on, and I hate being busy. Hate it. I feel that I don't have time for myself, though I know I do. Maybe I need more time. Maybe I just need more.

Vacant

Sometimes you just miss people.

You're the bourgeois hippie
The introverted social butterfly
The people pleasing provocateur

From the YouTube comments on Writing Your Resilience

A great interview and window into an arresting writer. While listening to Allison's responses to your questions, I was struck by just how articulate she is. And yes, she responds with notable ease and clarity and is articulate in the conventional sense, but she is also emotionally and psychologically articulate. This is very rich material she is sharing with us, buth here and in her book.
