she fascinates you. you know she shouldn't but she does. there's something about her wide baby-blue eyes invading her skeletal face, about her bony frame, those slender wrists, the way the illness has invaded her completely, inch by inch working its way through every molecule in her devastated body. it has taken her over, ironically enough it has devoured her, devastated her, yes, devastated, that's the perfect word. perfection. it's what she's trying to reach because she doesn't realize that it's what she already has. she is too poetic to be real but too real to be merely a metaphor so she is fading away, dying slowly. her tragedy -- her ac

Annie

There was this old woman who used to live under the bridge across the street from my building. She smoked like a chimney, and spent all of the money she got on cigarettes, so we'd all take turns bringing her coffee and bagels, or a sandwich, or spaghetti or something. She never talked to anyone. I think she was mute. I think she had Tourette's, too, because she had this funny little twitchy thing going on all the time, and she would make weird noises that weren't actually words. And she was an artist. She made these fun sculptures out of clothes hangers and things she found in the dumpster. She would build them overnight, then after a couple

The Architect's Daughter

Growing up, the drafting table was a strange contraption lording over the basement and over the crown of her then small head. As she slowly came to understand the table's function, it came to teach her that A) work and home are inseparable, and B) the world is flat. Skyscrapers collapse into thin piles of layered printer paper and torn, pen-marked transparency sheets. Mountains and forests reduce to stacked shapes. Fathers compile into cramped calendars. Now the early lessons are thoroughly embedded. Art and architecture are inseparable in her mind. The easel is her own table, similar to a draughtsman's and yet completely different in

The Furnish Is Everything

It was 183 days ago when Minerva Kisling the Yiddish Mentalist first came to my train station. She toured the Neptune-Aries circuit in vaudeville. I had seen her glossy photographs a few times outside of the Easton theater and The Springhouse when she played there, but I never saw her in person. At least, I never saw her until the locomotive that was supposed to be bringing her husband failed to arrive with said husband. As a redcap for the Southwest Lake Station with a half-dozen sisters, I scarcely could afford the ten cents or the time to see a vaudeville show on a regular basis, but the children working near the tracks would put on chea

don't want love

i. i don't want to fall in love. "silly," he teases, rolling his eyes. "everyone wants to fall in love." you shake your head adamantly, and he laughs. (it sounds like ringing bells and windchimes.) "you're just afraid of falling out of love," he tells you, and you snort. ii. i don't want to be loved. he chuckles in that special way of his, that one way that makes your heart flutter, that one way that no one else can replicate. "idiot, i'm sure you do," he says. he places a finger under your chin, tilting your face up till your gaze meets his. "after all, what's to say you aren't being loved now?" iii. i don't want to love. "moron." his

I love comedy by Nichrysalis, journal

I love comedy

Jul 18, 2015

Work is over for this week. Got in about 39 1/2 hours, so I'm happy, as I'm not allowed to go over 40 as a temp for reasons I'm not quite sure of yet. This is the first full week of being on the job I've accomplished because of my feet. I've been working for three weeks total. It's Wal-Mart, but it's still an income, and I really respect the people who've made themselves a place at this store. I'm part of a remodel crew, and if you don't know what a remodel is, it's like a turnaround. If you don't know what a turnaround is, let me tell you. A turnaround is a period of time when entire oil refineries are completely taken apart (usually in sepa

Jul 19, 2015

It's been a while since we've brightened your day, but we thought we'd do so again, after discovering that the keywords "cute red panda" yield some very heartwarming search results. "Let me in guys, it's not funny!" "Lookit me! Imma human!" "I will take you DOWN! *POUNCES*" "BLOOP." "Do the ear dance!" "Lookit me! I'm struttin'!" "This year the Olympics, next year the WORLD!" "This is mine now." "Nobody sleeps on my branch but me! My branch!" "Must. Get. Comfy." "I'm a cutie and I know it." "I didn't do nuttin'!" "Hey, wanna play tag with me? You're it!" "Guys, you's embawwasing me...." "I'm Sonic the hedgehog guys!" "Does the

Humor for my word nerds

I tried hard to find a version of this bit of humor about word origins located somewhere that dA allows embedding, but no luck. I did find the next best thing though; a series of gif's that illustrates how epic this guy is and how interestingly he thinks of etymology (study of word origins) though if you want to see it in video form, go here. http://www.cc.com/video-clips/njnzop/the-half-hour-hello---goodbye

Being Creative Is Hard

Apr 13, 2015

But it can be done. It's a lifestyle more than anything, and this message from tumblr certainly rings true: So if you, like me, have been intending to create lately but haven't found yourself breaking away from the responsibilities of real life or the constant magnetic pull of the internet, remember the famous slogan, "Just freaking do it." OK, so I may have added my own bit of flavor to that, but you get the drift. ;) I'm here for moral support and will happily be the person you can ask for help. I love hearing about stories and creative projects, and I'll gladly offer suggestions/advice if you need another set of eyes because you think an

Let me tell you why my love is like a potato

Feb 14, 2015

Warning: don't ever try to convince your significant other of this, even if it is soooooo true. In lieu of flowers though, don't give them potatoes, mainly because they're potatoes. IronChef Foicite: well, there's a lot of reasons IronChef Foicite: i mean, roses only last like a couple weeks IronChef Foicite: and that's if you leave them in water IronChef Foicite: and they really only exist to be pretty IronChef Foicite: so that's like saying IronChef Foicite: "my love for you is transitory and based solely on your appearance" IronChef Foicite: but a potato! IronChef Foicite: potatos last for fucking ever, man IronChef Foicite: in fact, not

Sunburst by ikazon, literature

Literature

Sunburst

Eight in the morning and my shaved head burns tan with summer, eighty-five degrees of heat and separation, and the air conditioner has conditioned me to roll the windows down my hand against my sweat-drenched forehead and my eyes at the cars around me. Perspective tells me I should be glad the car works. The migraine tells me I should murder everyone. Pigeons on a nearby traffic sign are playing their usual game of "which car is best to crap on, and how long will that crap sizzle before it dries", and I'd feel bad for that Lexus under them if he hadn'

Publishing Resources!

My name is Kate, and I'm a writer.

I'm a native New Yorker, but I moved to Washington, DC, and got a BA in English and Creative Writing from The George Washington University in 2013. I now live and work full-time as an editor in Arlington, VA. In between fixing people's grammar, I write short stories.

I have a lot of varied experience in being published and working in publishing, so if you have any questions about how to get published or how to work in the industry, feel free to send me a note!

Very, very briefly returning from the dead to post this awesome contest being held by Scholastic's Graphix imprint. Enter and you could be one of five people to have your original graphic novel published! $15,000 advance doesn't hurt, either. :)

:eager: Need publishing resources? Click here! I'm mostly not here these days, but I haven't forgotten about the annual holiday card exchange. :) Drop me a note with your address if you'd like to exchange cards with me! I'll be checking my messages for the next two weeks to see. In the past, I've sent cards to LadyLincoln (https://www.deviantart.com/ladylincoln), Nichrysalis (https://www.deviantart.com/nichrysalis), HugQueen (https://www.deviantart.com/hugqueen), and julietcaesar (https://www.deviantart.com/julietcaesar), but I always love sending out more mail! All's well on my end. Lots of traveling, which is unusual for me, but it's been fun -- Philadelphia for a conference a few weeks ago, and Salem, MA, for Thanksgiving with my fiance's extended family. I've also bought my wedding dress!
