The Complete Opposite of Acting

*Originally published Oct 2021, on my old blog. Recently caught up with Felix and found out he's living relatively close to me (less than a 5 hr drive away)... So, decided to share some Felix memories again... I had a memory pop into my head this morning as I was driving to work. I do… Continue reading The Complete Opposite of Acting

1996 Quite a Year for Domestic Violent Movies… and a Domestic Violent Life

I mentally prepared, and I watched Fear on Netflix last night. I won't rehash the similarities/memories I get from that movie - please read those here if you haven't already. I hadn't watched that movie in the 8 years since I last wrote about it. Maja and I had toyed with the idea of trying… Continue reading 1996 Quite a Year for Domestic Violent Movies… and a Domestic Violent Life

Adverse Childhood Event or Adult Trauma?

Hmmm, went back this morning and reviewed the post I put up last night. I ended it quite abruptly. I suppose that's what I get for rambling on the internet in the middle of the night while also binging The Resident on Netflix. I'm sure you'll be in for a treat when I eventually put… Continue reading Adverse Childhood Event or Adult Trauma?

I Want to Hate You

"Do you think it would be helpful" my Therapist asked in relation to if David and I were to ever have a conversation, to catch up, to attempt to make up, as it were. "No, I don't think so." It's a nice idea, I suppose. But it's nothing more than a fantasy. It would not… Continue reading I Want to Hate You

I Could Never Burn Winnie!

Speaking of my not private instagram... Last night, I received a message from a random guy on insta. He didn't appear to be a bot - due to having a lot of followers but not following hardly any others... and having several private posts. He liked and commented on a few pictures, followed me and… Continue reading I Could Never Burn Winnie!

Trauma Bond, the Jerk.

Okay, the initial shock has worn off from my last post in which I found that Wyatt had sent me a connection invite on Linkedin - thus he clearly saw my location and more recent work history at the very least. I waffled back and forth with just ignoring him altogether or messaging him to… Continue reading Trauma Bond, the Jerk.

Oh… Oh No…

Emma. You're a fucking idiot. For all the precautions I take online to hide from certain people... I know I'm not completely invisible, and it would be inevitable one day... but... Well, I updated my LinkedIn account a few days ago. Of course, my location and all that is on there. And of course, I… Continue reading Oh… Oh No…

Ex-vangelical

I should be working on my current manuscript. That's what I've been telling myself the past couple of weeks... But, so much to do, holidays, work... etc etc. And now I'm here instead, because at the same time I've had so many thoughts about other things that "huh, maybe I should write that on the… Continue reading Ex-vangelical

Christmas Eve Eve – Essentially St Patrick’s day already, I guess!

It's Christmas Eve Eve, or Lille Julafton as they say in the mother tongue. So, it wasn't so much a surprise to see valentines day displays already up at the craft store today - Valentines has been creeping into many a store as it's the next main commercial holiday. I was a little taken aback,… Continue reading Christmas Eve Eve – Essentially St Patrick’s day already, I guess!

Looking for Feedback, Please 🙏

Helloooo... I have a question to ask of you, my audience. I've decided to start working on my next book project again. In the past, I had started a few different ideas and gave up on them for lack of motivation or not liking how it was coming together. But I've had a new idea,… Continue reading Looking for Feedback, Please 🙏
