Another Night. Content Warning.
Another Night The American soldiers were on the radio when I left with the baby. The last thing Hashim said to me before he left was for me to take the baby and walk between the rivers as far as I could, hopefully to safety, when I heard the American soldiers on the radio. If we make it to Syria, we will officially be refugees. The American soldiers play a song on the radio that says that someone must have kicked me around, that I donāt have to live like a refugee. They are right, but they forgot to say that I donāt have to stay.

Harper Lewis. Content Warning.
I get a feeling that some of yāall are wondering, āWho is this Harper Lewis, and where did she come from?ā Iām new here, so new that I have no idea who the āsame old namesā are. I know that Iām new and some of my pieces have been noticed. Iām very appreciative of that, and sometimes I post with genuine hope and confidence that I nailed it, that what I tried to convey resonated, that my weirdness doesnāt alienate me.

Kwitcherbitchin. Content Warning.
Iām of Northern European and Native American roots, pretty sure the Germanic folk hailed from the small hamlet of Kwitcherbitchin, eventually breeding with travelers from Fixyerfuckingrammar and Punctuateyergoddamnsentences, on the other side of the mountains, leaving those lands after some time to marry in with inhabitants of Bespecific and Showdonttell. Eventually, their descendants got on a ship, and there were some illicit relations with Concretelanguage, resulting in the bastard births of Strongverbs, Subversion, and Sensorydetail before making landfall on Literaryallusion at the mouth of the River of Alliteration and settling in Citeyoursources, on the banks of Lake Threedimensionalcharacters, in the shadow of Realisticdialogue Mountain. I am all of my ancestors and carry the maps of their native lands in my blood.

Bitched from the Start. Top Story - December 2025.
Thatās the hard part, becoming objective. Thatās why Dr. Evans made me write in third person. He said I was self-indulgent when I wrote in first person, overly charmed by my own voice and words. Iām also guilty of wanting to tell a story because itās mine.
