It’s Been a While….or so I’ve Heard.
I'm giving a consistent writing habit another shot. It's been something that I've been wanting to get myself back into for a while now, but the inspiration hasn't really been hitting me too hard.

DWC Day 14: Explain What Your Favorite Holiday Is, And Why.
Day 14: Explain what your favorite holiday is and why. First, oops. I have somehow managed to get myself about four days behind on blog posts, and I think it secretly has to do with one-part laziness, one-part excitement to get myself back to Missouri. In any case, today is catch up day, and I'm … Continue reading DWC Day 14: Explain What Your Favorite Holiday Is, And Why.
