About Time

Now. I’m a writer. With published books. My published books are romance novels. Now I write my memories. My memories are rarely the same story accurately remembered. So. So I’m forcing myself to scrawl each version of the stories I remember. Then I just try to fit all the pieces together in a way that—fits. Or—doesn’t.

Thunder!

In 2024 I was a guest of Parkland Health’s Hospital. (19 days! Fun trip!) When I was on my last few days there, and was allowed to actually get out of the hospital bed something incredible happened: A giant thunderstorm rolled along my view of the entire city of Dallas.

So I filmed it. And then added some music.

I also got to take a shower.

I wrote some of it down.

Neuropsychologist Diagnoses

The greater the loss, the more brain is fucked. This is a phrase that plays on an infinite loop inside my skull. Every time I look for some item I put somewhere I put myself down for being such an idiot. Then I remember that my brain is fucked. But. Life will go on. And I'll forget that.

My Name's Michelle And I'm Not An Alcoholic.

Alcohol was the only thing that felt familiar and seemed to help me get through a life I barely remembered.

Amnesia and Mental Health

Recently I’ve been traveling to Barcelona, I often go to Spain. This is the writing I get lost in—the memories and all the hurt.

Amnesia And Real Lives

I am on day eight in Saint Mary's. Reno, in a bright, glowing red. I am in room 407. That's me. 407.

Amnesia In The Morning

Like a lot of people, I wake up every morning. I'm sure this is true because I'm alive. Again.

LIFE, THE UNIVERSE AND EVERYTHING

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Phone Sex & Mental Health

When the darkness threatens to overwhelm, I think of my son's laughter as a beacon of light guiding me through. Writing down my thoughts, pouring them onto paper, often helps me make sense of the chaos inside. These small acts remind me there is still beauty to be found, no matter how fractured my world seems.

Nothing Goes Away

My ocean, sea salt, and blue sky and sea, white wavy clouds tying the sun and sea together. I’ve finally realized and understood how crazy I am.

Guernica

The air is thick, smoky, pressing into my lungs. Everywhere I look, there are fragments—shards of things, of people. Blood on metal, heat rising. Even the faces around me seem unfinished, as if everyone is made from scraps. The world outside leaks into the world inside me. Both are scattered, both incomplete.

SAFETY IS AN OBSERVATION

I want a sandwich. I want ice-cream. I want to eat with love. With people I love.
