Happy Birthday…Mr. President… 😉 As requested by @eddiecabbage. I never turn down a challenge.
I dubbed @eddiecabbage” #TheGodfatherOfInstagram” a long time ago as a joke. But soon, our inside joke became quite a fitting name…and so it stuck. I have been fortunate to have Eddie as a friend and colleague for the past eight months, and he has taught me so much about myself, my writing process, the joys and evils of Instagram, and the rapidly-changing writer-world we live in. I’ve witnessed so many other writers praising Eddie for his honesty and Truth-seeking journey, while other writers verbally gang rape him both publicly and behind his back. It’s a funny culture we live in, where immediate gratification is celebrated and constructive criticism is damned; Eddie holds no shame in calling writers out when plagiarizing or proving “two-faced”–in short, he holds the Instagram writing community accountable. And honestly, you can’t argue with his logic. I’ve noted that most people who hate and/or verbally bash Eddie just don’t “get it.” And by “it,” I mean The Big Picture. Sure, earlier on in our friendship I questioned if I should be backing this unfiltered, no-muss no-fuss, fearless, outwardly raw, and brutally honest writer. Sometimes his blunt nature shocked me and/or made me feel uncomfortable…but he was always right. His intentions were always pure and his points were always valid. So when I questioned his motives or his actions, I found him guilty of nothing other than being truthful and open in a society that thrives off manipulative personas and false/instant success.
Feeling a little sassy today. #sassybutclassy#passthechocolate #noms #friskyfriday #butitssaturday
When the pain is sometimes too real…
Typewriter Repair Shop Day! 🙂 Picking up three, dropping off–…uhhhh… #Houston… #Ihaveaproblem#dontjudgeme #butmomatleastitsnotdrugs
Little known fact about me: In addition to underwater basket-weaving, I have also mastered the art of photo-bombing. A sure-fire hit at parties, weddings, and in overpopulated, stereotypical, touristy locations. You can imagine how popular I am amongst my friends…However, I feel like I’m doing them a service–a necessary survival exercise, if you will–keeps people on their toes, always alert and on the lookout for the Ginger Flash. She’s always out there. Lurking. Waiting… #nomorecoffee #butseriously #takeitaway #itsmyfriday #dontjudgeme
