Gina

Hi there, I'm Gina.

This blog serves many purposes for me -- sharing new writing & works in progress, keeping in touch with old friends, making new friends, and keeping an eye on what's happening on the interwebs. But mostly? It's where I blow off steam from graduate school and talk about which David Bowie song is the queerest. ;)

If you wanna know more about me, check out my website for info about the work that I do in the world.

If you're here because you're a fan of my writing, I recommend checking out How To Have A Body for a peek at my current manuscript in progress.

Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. Enjoy your stay.

  • Damn, Gina!

    I somehow managed to write another 2500 words today? Holy hell.

    I am wrung out now, though. It is ice cream & bad tv o’clock. Then, it is bed o’clock.

  • i am ON FIRE!

    I am kind of ON FIRE (go to 2:17) this week.

    Just sent my advisor 125 pages of Potential Thesis. Roughly 50 of which are How To Have A Body, which, at this point, might just end up being the WHOLE Thesis?

    Good lord. I am really tired, but I am really proud of myself.

  • Go Gina, go!

    Currently putting the verrry finishing touches on my Master’s Thesis. You know, the more I read through this & tweak little bits here & there, the prouder I am, the less anxiety I have about it. I done good, dammit.

  • apparently dates are good motivators?

    So, I was supposed to have a date this afternoon, and had work to get done before the date, and I somehow managed to push through all of it and get it into a good place (including making major progress on my Girl Talk piece, hell yes!). And then my date had to reschedule, which is fine. But now I am like:

    a) Oh, wow, now I have a few hours to just… Relax? Have some alone time? That’s awesome, but also the fact that I cannot remember the last time I just had Enjoyable Chill-Out Alone Time (as opposed to “Alone But Working On Things Time”) is definitely something I am noting. :/
    b) So apparently dates are really excellent motivators for me to GET THINGS THE HELL DONE. Duly noted!
