Hi there!

It’s been so much fun, acquainting myself to you through your
blog. Love your aesthetic and your crafty eye.

I’m throwing my hat into the the ring for the “Dabbled Black Heart
Anti-Valentines Day Contest”.

This time last year, I was doing a series of live readings in Los
Angeles. I was reading aloud exerpts from my actual teenaged
diaries (which I kept, daily, from age 13 to age 18). I
entertained the audiences mostly by reading things I wrote about
“Dane”, the boy on whom I had a monumental, all-consuming, FOUR
YEAR CRUSH. He (perhaps predictably) treated me with cool
indifference, for the most part.

It’s a deeply vulnerable thing to read my diaries, and so, for the
Valentine’s show, I wanted to give out something to audience
members that would match the tone of cringing embarrassment and
honesty that my readings gave me.

I scanned vintage valentines and images (some from my collection,
some from flickr) and put my own spin on the captions. I tried to
make them a little bitter, a little overly honest, maybe a little
needy, but not without a small amount of whimsy.

You can see a small selection here:
