umm, here’s your fourth of July special I guess. I took a break from my glamorous big city life (lol) to be a small-town girl for the summer. My hometown is supposed to inspire me to write my novel (also, lol). The problem is, this is not Gilmore Girls, and I am not from Stars Hollow. Think less quaint and quirky, more... post-industrial. And before I could write, I needed to work through my inferiority complex stemming from this place.
