Category: Listicles

My attempt at listicles as a literary genre is to blend the structured format of a list with the narrative depth or storytelling. Designed to present information in an easily digestible way, I tackle a wide range of topics, from the profoundly complex to the whimsically trivial. The goal of these listicles is not to create easily shareable and skimmable content, but to offer bite-sized segments of insights or entertainment.

Weaving stories to inspire & connect ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐ŸŒ

I might be late, thanks to Google for the reminder I might be late, thanks to Google for the reminder, but...๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ˜Š

It's been 3 YEARS since this poetry collection first stepped into the world. Three years of watching these poems find their way to you, settle into moments I never could have imagined when I first gathered them together. ๐Ÿ“šโœ๐Ÿพ

Writing is humbling. Every single time. The blank page, the hope that what I'm trying to say will land, the vulnerability of sharing pieces of yourself with the world.ย 

But you've made space for these stories. You've let them into your days, your thoughts, your hearts. And for that, I'm endlessly grateful.

Here's to the readers who make it all worth it. Thank you for being here. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ ๐Ÿ’›
