this is daisy's lame website

Hello! I'm a writer, student, and Star Wars enjoyer who writes here about politics, philosophy, queerness, and other things. I also review books I've read, as well as movies I've seen. Please enjoy this website—a little piece of my soul lives in every sentence I write, and by reading it you keep my thoughts alive. Isn't that a sweet concept? Anyway, the blogposts start below!

I just read the book Nevada by Imogen Binnie, and then I read it again, and then I wrote a really short review of it. Read it here! I kept the review purposefully short because I didn't want to spoil too much, but trust me when I say I could've wrote like forty pages about this book. Seriously, if you're a trans girl, please read this book, I cannot recommend it enough.

On another note, yeah, it's been a while. I'm always saying that though, aren't I. My school quarter ended and I went home for the Summer and I had a major depressive episode, so I wasn't really writing that much. I guess I kinda missed my chance to write a review for Trials of the Jedi, which was really good, but yeah I don't think I'll be writing about it here. I did write some poetry, so maybe you'll see that soon, I just kinda have to revise it a bit. My Summer classes have started up, so (almost counter-intuitively) I have a bit more time to write while I'm back at school. That being said, I'm gonna try to get a job, and on top of getting back into dating again I don't know how much time I'm gonna have.

I guess the reason I feel like I always have to apologize during these blogposts is because writing is something I really enjoy doing. I mean, over the past couple years, one of my major aspirations has settled into wanting to be a writer. So it's more like an apology to myself rather than to anyone reading, though I am generally convinced no one is reading this. Maybe I just need to dedicate more time to the things I love rather than watching Seinfeld reruns for the one-millionth time. I love who I am when I'm writing, and I love anyone who takes the time to read this silly little website of mine, so I'll work on it, I swear.

Just uploaded a short essay that I wrote a while back on some contemporary trans issues, and my experience growing up with depression/dysphoria. I think it'll be rather interesting for other tgirls who struggle with body image and the like. It is very personal, so I hope you enjoy it; please let me know if you do, or if you have any feedback. Still have a couple larger projects in the works, so uploads may be sparse (aren't they always though?). Stay posted for more, you just might have to stay posted for a little longer than either of us would like. Anyway, hope y'all've been well :3 ^^

Well it took me over two months, but I'm back! I've been very busy with school, but I managed to write my review of The High Republic: Into the Light, which you can read here

I really don't have all that much to say. I've been writing both nonfiction and fiction which I'd love to share at some point, but that also requires me to finish a damn project which is more than I've been capable of lately. I've also been thinking I may start a youtube channel, mostly just to keep me consistent and accountable to an audience. Rest assured, you will be seeing more from me, I just don't know when or if it'll even be soon.

I hope y'all are doing well. Feel free to reach out to my twitter that I linked in the last blog post, I'd love to hear from anyone who reads this (mostly cause I don't believe anyone does, haha). Hope everyone has a good spring, and I'll see y'all later!!
