Silly Tangents
Not about writing
In the beginning, I used to go on random tangents about silly things. Here are all those early posts from long ago.
- My Crazy Dreams (that one time my dreams were too crazy)
- Short Talk and No Necks (commenting on drawings of historical people)
- “Take off your glasses!” (I wear glasses. This is a rant.)
- Pugs may rule the earth one day. (I ended up in the land of tangents.)
- Getting stressed to rid of stress (My experience on going on a vacation)
- I abuse the Persian Cat Room Guardian (The meme of the Persian Cat Room Guardian gets me all the time so I make my own memes.)
About writing
Silly little articles about writing and about my stories, very much non-serious.

Breaking down words
Sometimes I like to do a deep-dive into the origins and constructions of words. Sometimes this leads me to ranting about the dictionary.
- Alter Ego-Boosted (What is “alter ego”? crosses into a talk about pen names)
- Contradictionaries…omg (dictionary rant)
- Did jealousy create “re-search”? (doesn’t “research” just mean “searching again”?)
- Mage or Witch? What’s the difference? (dictionary rant)
- Oh, Fluff, Write It Right (dictionary rant on words that should exist but don’t)
