My name is Laura. I write silly love songs and dream about alternate universes. I cannot imagine a world without music. Emo kid, folk artist, privileged punk, child of the fence. I am almost always in love, but I am especially so these days with the coolest guy I know.
My musical influences include: Coheed and Cambria, Brand New, Motion City Soundtrack, Say Anything and Elliott Smith (among others).
My literary influences include: Kurt Vonnegut, George Orwell, William Faulkner, John Green and Meta Knight (among others).
Most of this blog is dedicated to my writing. I write prose (flash fiction, short fiction, essays, random non-fiction) and poetry (usually rhymed and unrhymed free verse and sonnets) as well as sometimes song lyrics. To see the things that I have written navigate yourself towards “Words”.
