When you love someone for so long, you forget what it's like to have small crushes on people. The fact that I've been getting small crushes now and then gives me hope that I've finally gotten over the girl I loved.
Random Piece of Writing
I wanted to make sure I didn't forget this passage after it came to me. Civilians thought that post-traumatic stress looked like Rambo, The Deer Hunter, or God only knows how many other tropes and clichés. Veterans knew the truth. It was the guy or gal at the bar on a Wednesday night, more comfortable around strangers than at home because their inability to empathize or show compassion was leading them to fail at being a partner or parent, usually both.
We Miss the Old DeviantART
Seriously, is there anyone on this site who likes the new layout? I don't mean, "eh, it's okay," I mean does anyone enthusiastically enjoy it the way so many people did the old site? "Retiring" the old site has undoubtedly been the worst decision DeviantART has ever made.
The Neophyte Operative
This is a promo for a story I've worked on and off for the last few years. I started it a while before I started writing my current novel, shelved it for years, and recently got back to it.

I've slowly drifted away from DeviantART over the last few years, but now I'm seriously contemplating leaving for good. Congratulations DA, you just upheld the tradition of getting rid of the best stuff and replacing it with shit. Way to kill the golden goose, you shortsighted fucks.
