For anyone who may have missed this the other time I mentioned it and would be interested, I have essentially abandoned this tumblr and started one devoted to my writing and art projects at: sarahlynrogers.tumblr.com

Thank you!

It’s day three of 2014 and I’m not feeling any less guilty about not posting some thoughts I have, so I guess that’s good enough reason to write them down and send them to you.

I guess a part of me wants to lay out some predictions for the culture-at-large, and wouldn’t that feel great for a...

Writing and creative life.

Hey, gang. As part of the new-year hysteria of REINVENTING ONESELF, I've made myself a new Tumblr page. I think I'll still update this one sometimes, but I want to shift away from passively observing and sharing things. I want to have a webpage that I can present to people who want to read my writing and see my art things, and have this be separate from collections of cats, butts, and cat butts.

Happy new year!

This was my vision board for 2013. I wanted to focus on music, travel, and writing. Some of the things on the board were already plans in place (traveling to Disneyland and Hawaii with my family), but some of them were qualities I wanted (the devil-may-care attitude of cats and pinup girls... maybe someday) or dreams.

Some of the things that were just wishes or ideas came to fruition. I did get published this year (three times!), Kevin and I are planning a Europe trip that will include France (for him) and Italy (for me), I got to see David Sedaris again, I "took flight" from my parents' place, and my family got a little kitten like the one at bottom left.

Looking at the board again, I'm also reminded of things I neglected this year. I wouldn't say that I took a lot of time for myself, and I definitely slacked on learning any more guitar. I haven't played bass in a long time. Things to consider for next year. Really all I want to do is enjoy my day to day life and write every day.

Cool stuff that happened in the past year:

Wrote my first song

Recorded drums for Kevin's album

Graduated!

Began my MFA program

Was published for the first time

Won my first writing awards

Took a family + sweeties vacation

Moved in with my sweetheart

Started working for The Rumpus

Published in a tangible book for the first time

Met Tegan and Sara again

Celebrated three years with Kevin

I hope everyone had a good year, and will have another :)
