• New Featured Story!

    Happy February, everyone! I’m pretty stoked about this month because it’s the month I get my new apartment (we get the keys in only three more days!). It’s also a new month, which is always bright and exciting, because it means a new Featured Story from last year’s World Unknown Review. This month, we’re featuring…

  • Stressed Out.

    “Used to dream of outer space, but now they’re laughing at our face, // Saying, ‘wake up, you need to make money.’” Lordy lord, I have been crazy stressed out this week. There’s just a lot I’ve been internalizing and a lot going on, and it hasn’t been any fun at all. Even with my…

  • So68 on me of you may recall that I’m moving soon, which is both exciting and nerve-wracking because new places cost a lot, y’all. I have a few weeks still (well, one week and three days, but who’s counting?), but I’ve already started the packing process because I have a lot of stuff. A ton…

  • It looks like my buddy Luther M. Siler is offering his book, Searching for Malumba, for free today and tomorrow, and I highly recommend taking advantage of this opportunity. I had the distinct privilege of reading a beta copy of this collection of blog posts about the crazy world of teaching, and I thoroughly enjoyed…

  • RELOCATION!

    Today, I come bearing great and terrifying news. One of my goals for the year was to relocate to a new apartment, just my boyfriend and myself, instead of the frat party bachelor pad we’ve been kicking it for a while. I was projecting for this happen around April, especially since I don’t exactly like…

  • I’m the Invisible Man.

    So, I finished my first book of the year the other day (yes, technically, it’s a novella, but the copy I have has 200+ pages, so it counts): The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells. It is my first H.G. Wells book and hopefully not my last. The man is a sci-fi treasure, and it’s a…

  • Lately, I’ve been running into some problems with WordPress whenever I try to make a longer post. I don’t know if it’s WP itself or it’s just my incredibly outdated and often slow laptop, but it always freezing up when I hits around 400 words. Has anyone else been experiencing anything like that? Or do…

  • Hibernation.

    Last night, when I got home from my morning shift and did absolutely nothing. True, I was running on only four and a half hours of sleep on a very persistent cold, but I hate when I end up being useless and get little else but earning a paycheck done. Sure, earning a paycheck is…

  • A Story a Day.

    One challenge that appears often in the lives and blogs of my fellow writers is the Story a Day challenge, which, as you might guess, is the challenge to write a story every day. It’s a fantastic idea; even if the story isn’t that good, you’re still writing, you’re still getting stuff out there, and…

  • In light of the new King’s Quest game being absolutely incredible and stirring up all the old obsessiveness of my younger self (the one who would try to turn our farm into a live-action KQ game and force my little brother to play it), I started doing a “Daily KQ” thing on my Tumblr, where…
