Updating this blog.
I am archiving all my old work and writing new pieces here: shelbystone-steel.com.
Meraki is the updated work.
Eat, Drink, and Be Married is the (slowly) archived pieces from this site.
Currently, I am watching Modern Love. I'm excited about it because I used to love reading the stories in the New York Times. I am folding clothes as I watch this show. My friend Tasha told me about it. We've been friends since we were 16 years old. She is someone that does a far better job at keeping her ear and eyes to the culture. And she does such a phenomenal job at keeping me updated. But I think the coolest part about it all is that she is someone that knows me well enough to suggest stories that are so aligned with who I am. It's funny how relationships work - some for moments, some for years, some for a lifetime. And we never know which relationship is which (short, long, deep, shallow) until it's all said and done. We will always have Paris.
Update: there are no women of color as a love interest so far... arrrgh....come on AMAZON!!!! What a beautiful series - you really couldn't incorporate a woman of color in it? It reminds me of Disney movies as a child. You love the film, but you watch as a spectator "an other." Meh.
