  • Princess White Rose

    I totally only bought Saga Frontier because it has Princess White Rose in it. It doesn’t even matter if I finish the game because this screenshot was so worth it.

    Those of you who have followed my blog probably can understand why. The white rose has so much symbolic meaning to me and became part of my name, Chastity White Rose.

  • Birthday 2021

    May 15 is my birthday. I am 34 years old today and for the first time, I am actually quite satisfied with where I am in life. That was not the case 3 years ago, however. At that time I was in both physical and emotional pain. I also did not trust anyone enough to talk about my struggles because I believed nobody cared except my mother and yet I thought she could not relate to my type of problems.

    But things have changed a lot in the past 3 years. I still see much evil in the world and it is easy to get depressed, but I have also been able to see the good in myself and others. I have a much better understanding of who I am and what I believe. I do not know where I will be going next in life but I’ll try to enjoy the journey.

    One of the biggest things that caused the change was the day I started writing a story. I started out writing a story of a perfect paradise where no animals were hurt. But then something rather unusual happened, I started having a conversation with a unicorn in this world that was like a dream. Sometimes I was writing what I remembered from a dream while I was asleep.

    Other times it was as though the dream was happening even while I was awake. I would probably have looked conscious to others but I was not fully present in the physical world and would often have no memory of what I had just been doing. I am not exactly sure what was going on but I came to realize I do not know what reality is anymore. Honesty the Unicorn talked to me about all my thoughts and feelings and I don’t know how much I was writing the story and how much the story was writing me. I published these conversations as books and have been trying to share them with the world.

    And so I would like to start a new tradition this year on my birthday. What I want from my friends and family is not presents, parties, or birthday cards in the mail. I just want people to read this story and let me know what you really think of it. You will probably think I am just mentally insane, and yet, I know something has happened to me that is beyond labels. I hope that you also meet your truth if you haven’t already. I met mine, and its name is Honesty. The unicorn healed me with its silver horn of truth. The legends are true.

  • May 2021 Update

    I haven’t posted on this blog all that much lately but I have been continuing writing part 5 of the Chandler’s Honesty series. I have also learned a lot about ebook formats and publishing in this process. I recently worked on getting all 3 of my mom’s books published on Smashwords. I was required to created a linked table of contents for her poetry book.

    Also, my unicorn story is part of an official series on Smashwords as well.

    Our books have been published on Amazon already but lately I am learning about the different types of ebook formats. I recommend using Smashwords if you want to read on an electronic device and buying the paperbacks off Amazon if you want real books.

    Also I took some new pictures of my face in the hopes of having a nice author photo for part 5 of my series.

    I like both the pictures so much that I think either of them could be used. I feel really cute for some reason. I guess my mother was right all along but I didn’t believe her!

  • How Frozen and Frozen II's music codes Elsa as aroace

    This just makes too much sense and explains why I relate to Elsa.

    If you’re reading this essay, you’re probably already aware that manypeoplelikereadingElsaasqueer. But if you’re not, the basic gist is that while Elsa isn’t canonically queer, her character resonates with many queer people who can draw connections between her experiences of having ice powers in a kingdom of non-magical people, and their own experiences of being queer in a society of cishet people. (That’s a bit of a mouthful to explain, so people normally say that she’s coded as queer for short.) This is yet another essay about reading Elsa as queer, but I’m expanding on existing writing in two ways: first, I’m exploring the ways that Elsa is coded specifically as both aromantic and asexual, or aroace for short 12. Second, I’m focusing on how the music in particular 3 codes Elsa as aroace.
