In my time on the internet, I've gone through many a transition. 

Summer Sweetness.

It's always hard for me to choose between summer & autumn as a favorite season- they're both a bit magical in totally different ways. 
My birthday is in summer, so maybe I'm naturally biased towards it. Whatever the case, once June hits & the pavement gets hot, my heart swells.
It swells at the mention of ice cream, the smell of sunscreen, the sound of a baseball game. 
They say spring is the season of renewal, but I happen to think everything changes in the summertime. It's a time of innocence and nostalgia, long nights & cold lemonade. Everything tastes a little bit sweeter & feels a little more magical. 
What's your favorite part of summer?

September's Embrace

The yearning for crisp days and cosy nights wrapped in blankets of warmth and crackling records, the comfort of pumpkin coffee and burning candles.
The yearning for autumn's crisp warm embrace.

Octobers.

Chilly air, crimson leaves.

The warm scent of apple that fills the room, the coziness of a favorite sweater,

Pretty pumpkins, romantic landscapes.

She feels her life start over in the middle of an October afternoon.

Three Quotes for the Writers

Just a little bit of Monday inspiration for the writer in all of us.

Chaos and lights.

"It's a beautiful mess of chaos and lights

that put the brightest of stars to shame.

The city that never sleeps haunts my dreams

like a lost love that never leaves your mind.

How can I be so in love with somewhere

I've never been? 

It seems impossible but it's real.

It's a kind of love that is everlasting,

and my heart's aware of the fact it's been stolen

by blinding city lights

and crowded sidewalks

and I don't think I would change the feeling 

even if I could.

Oh how free your soul must be

once you're in a city that's like a dream."

Coffee cups.

"Her wishes fall into coffee cups like pennies into fountains,

and she's counting all the days she's wasted 

waiting and hoping for something more.

Still she pours all she has into those dreams of more,

of laughter and adventure and wonder.

Because even though hope breeds eternal misery

she hopes and she loves and she dreams."

Music to help get you writing

Music is a big part of inspiration for me when I'm writing. Unfortunately, if I'm listening to pandora or even a record, sometimes I start to focus more on singing along than on actually writing. So I decided to create a playlist of music that won't distract me as much. I love instrumental covers and I find them relaxing and inspiring. Hopefully you do too!
