Today, I read the short story “The Mill Girls” by Rebecca Turkewitz, published in Colorado Review. I went to follow the author on Instagram because I loved the story so much, and it turned out I was already following her. I truly have no idea why.

I haven’t written a short story in a long time. I’ve got one on the back-burner, but it’s “not safe for work” so I have limited time to work on it (a lot of my writing time is during breaks at my job). But reading this got me excited about it again, even though they’re about totally different things. This one has a hint of gothic-ness to it that I really enjoyed.

How were you creative today?

Love and gratitude, as always.
