There were thirty days in April and I wrote and published something on this blog for twenty-six of them.

April Page A Day
Scattered
There are clothes tossed about the floor. My clothes, my floor,my bedroom floor. This isn't the way things should be. This isn't how I live or how I have been living for the last three years. Things get picked up and put away. Everything in order. My sleeping chamber a place of peace and tranquility. … Continue reading Scattered
Sometimes I….
Sometimes I write bad poetry and sometimes I write stories that don't make sense. Sometimes I just write and write for hours in my head.

Not A Real Family (April Page 18 )
He's not your real father. So don't expect him to care. She's not your real kid so don't expect her to love you. Step-kids aren't really kids. And Step-parents are just playing a game that they can stop at any time. But my Papa loves me. He shows me everyday and has always got my back. Years … Continue reading Not A Real Family (April Page 18 )
Character Sketch (April Page a Day)

The coward you know, the coward who does make any waves and lives the life you … Continue reading Character Sketch (April Page a Day)
Remembrance Day
I will wear my school colors today, because to today is Remembrance Day at Virginia Tech. In 2007, a student went on a violent rampage killing 32 people and then himself. It was a horrible day.
