I'm Rebecca, a 23 year-old writer, college dropout, and a very pessimistic feminist. I like flavoured coffee, indie music, and a darkly comic novel for any time of the day. This website is the home of my blog and my shared works of creative fiction. A more verbose summary of me is located here.
    My current novel endeavor, full of angst, drinking, and religious questioning. Also: lies, ketamine, and shopping carts. Learn just a fraction more here.

    A First Draft

    Last night I came home from work with a promotion, and then I promptly sat in front of the computer and finished my novel. It was wonderful, using up an entire ink cartridge just to print this shit out. Then, when I was punching holes into the 230 sheets of paper I used up, JoHN told me about something called “draft printing”. I didn’t know that sort of thing existed.

    Nevertheless, I think I’m seriously going to go about writing paper and ink cartridges off on my taxes next year. Also, I could put all those writing books I’ve recently bought as well. Including the ketamine one I just got in the mail. Because I’m using it for research.

    Nevertheless, here’s to editing!

    1. You should buy a laser printer! They’re so much faster, and actually end up being cheaper to use in the long run. Might be something to think about if you’re going to be printing out a lot of drafts.
