Good day my friends! It seems we all have some reflecting to do today. It's pretty ironic though right? Yesterday everyone was seemingly scrambling the for the entire workday without Facebook and Instagram, today it has given everyone fresh content. The amount of memes, posts, polls, and tweets I have seen just since last night … Continue reading Something to think about

20 Years Later…
In honor of the 20th anniversary of 9/11, I really wanted to write something profound... something meaningful. Then I thought to myself, what could one ever write to give it enough justice? Could I ever write anything "good enough"? Probably not, but I damn well wanted to try. Then just as I sat down with … Continue reading 20 Years Later…
Pandemic Fatigue
So this week I had an entirely different blog post planned reflecting on Veganuary. I have a lot to say on the topic but for the life of me I just haven’t been able to formulate coherent sentences about it every morning I sat down to write this week. This morning I had such a … Continue reading Pandemic Fatigue
New Year, New Blog
Admittedly, it is borderline intimidating to be back on the blog after this many months of a hiatus. To anyone who has never been here before or who has never read my writing... WELCOME! To the rest of you that have been with me since my first post when this blog was called nikki in … Continue reading New Year, New Blog
August
The last couple of blog posts I have written have actually all been in completely different environments. I never thought about it much before this moment... as I sit here in my tiny studio apartment on the Upper East Side of New York City at my makeshift desk (if you could even call it that). … Continue reading August

I am going to be spending a lot of time writing and organizing for the book in the coming weeks, but I realized that I want to actually track the process of creating it as well. I can tell … Continue reading Memory Lane
It’s Happening
My very first post on this blog is titled Why Won't You Call Yourself a Writer? - and it is probably one of, if not my favorite thing I have written to date. I'm thinking about that post a lot right now since today will mark a milestone for me. Today is the day I am starting … Continue reading It’s Happening
Thankful: 2019 Edition
So as I sit here in my local cafe on this gloomy Sunday before Thanksgiving... I was staring at this blank computer screen for a while. I have one of those super annoying rainy-day headaches that isn't seeming to go away, and I was drawing a blank as to what to write about. I have … Continue reading Thankful: 2019 Edition
This Is 33
Yesterday I turned 33. I know birthdays can bring a bag of mixed emotions for most people. Some are super enthusiastic about their birthdays and really do it up and celebrate. Others feel a sense of sorrow or resentment at the thought of being another year older. Some are just reminded of all those who … Continue reading This Is 33
How I Usually Spend My Sundays
Friday evening as I was on my way home from work, I told myself I would do nothing but chip away at my reading pile and Netflix queue. I envisioned a full two days of nothing but blissful relaxation tackling my pile of books and magazines with Netflix scattered in between. Here I am Sunday … Continue reading How I Usually Spend My Sundays
