Bio
Hello! I have been writing for about my whole life, as evidenced by the million binders I had to clean out from my mom's place this summer! I have a bachelor's degree in Creative Writing and I am hoping to go back to school for my MFA soon.

An Honest Day's Labor
The May day on which I boarded the train was fresh and brilliant, in that way that only the English countryside can be. The sooty air and close streets of London had quickly slid past the windows of the train, giving way to rolling green hills and pastures filled with shaggy sheep, some apple trees still in bloom. Sadly, my mood could not match the beauty of the day. I glanced down at my hands in their black lace gloves, neatly folded in my lap. I would soon doff the clothes of mourning for my husband only to don the denim dress and work apron of a factory girl. The road ahead looked bleak. I tried to focus on the scenery outside.
