This will probably be a mess!

Welcome to my substack, a.k.a. my unadulterated thoughts, my info-dumping ground, my useless opinions playpen. Make yourself comfortable.

Hi. If you’re reading this you’re probably my mom or one of the few friends I’ve added via email. lol.

Oh my god Sara, you already blab so much- are you really going to add another way to torture us with what goes on in that mind of yours?
Hey! Yes. Let me re-introduce myself in a condensed fashion: I’m Sara. Right now I’m 25 and a graphic designer at an agency. I’m based in Philadelphia and when I’m not working I’m pursuing music, solo (as Stone Cold Grace) and in a band (Caring Less.)

Lately my life has been fast and overwhelming. I miss journaling a lot but feel like I’ve been avoiding writing, simply due to the fact that once I get my feelings down, they become real. There’s also the crippling idea of having to catch everyone up (i.e. the god-like figures that I assume are watching my life like a movie) (OR the person who finds the journal after I’m dead, cause that’s totally going to happen) if I miss a few entries.

1. So, why are you doing this now?

I don’t know. lol. Just kidding! I’m hoping this will hold me accountable and get me to write a little more, even if it’s about stupid stuff. And as a songwriter, I feel like it’s pretty natural to want to connect with others in any way possible. I crave that more than anything.

2. Keeping it casual/conversational

Currently, I do not have an editor, so please bear with me and any bad grammar :)

3. What can we expect?

A little bit of everything! Maybe some free writing on past experiences, journal entries, silly little opinions, unreleased songs, and occasionally prose.

4. Thanks for being here :)

It’s so cool that anyone would read this at all. I feel like Carrie Bradshaw, hopefully without some of her less favorable qualities. Here’s to sticking to it and writing more!

Sending love,

Sara (xoxo, gossip girl)
