the world and writing of gretchen cello

blog sorting, word spilling, job getting

We’re approaching blog post 200 fellow cult members and art tribe. I’m sure there’s probably some magic way of arranging my page to make it look better in a lot of ways… I’m going to ponder on this over the week.

I’ve decided to submit another story since my last one was accepted, only took 31 years!! I guess that means the next victory will be somewhere around the 62 mark? Dudes…

As much as it’d be great to front a wealthy lifestyle of no employment necessities… totally not true. Therefore this week means sending out job applications, I actually just gagged writing that.

I’m trying to be positive, I mean, if I get back into school full-time by October… I might actually be able to get a job that somewhat resembles what I’m good at…

I am good at writing… right?

I still have all of these enormous romantic ideas about starting creative writing workshops where everyone can come and get their ink on as a way to learn more about themselves and the way we make sense of this mysterious world we live in. You know… like actually do something that I think matters?

In the meantime hopefully I can find someone willing to give me dollars for whatever comes quickly.

empirical empathy

kaleidoscope care combines
rainbows of how i love you.
uneven shapes change with every…
new circle of light.
ways you beam facing the sun.
how i spin and…
up, down, the colours of your
swaying branches
rattle my tree.
watching your reds turn violet,
violets turn gold.
through my telescope
you shine brighter…
blending with surroundings
… just fitting in.
