A notebook of nutgrafs

Nutgraf: a paragraph following the lede, or opening paragraph, that proceeds to explain the context of the news or other story "in a nutshell" (learn more here or here)

I'm a zillennial doing her best. I write for a living, then I come home and write more. Sometimes I talk about being a journalist, but this blog is basically how I process whatever is going on in my life. Because I seriously don't know what's going on. Enjoy reading my diary.

If you are also having a quarter-life crisis, I hope my rambling posts make you feel a little less alone.

You can get in touch with me by emailing davstri4077@gmail.com or in my guestbook.
