Welcome

Hi, I’m Shayla. I write about the complexities of living. All of the feelings, all of the disappointments, and all of the hope. Sharing my experiences and forced wisdom, one word at a time.

When I’m not writing at my favorite cafe, I’m voraciously reading (or buying) fiction and non-fiction, cooking something from scratch, exploring a new place, or simply enjoying solitude. I’m a Maryland native happily biding my time in Charlotte, North Carolina until I’m able to travel the world for a living.
