About the Creator
Harper Lewis
I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me. Some of my fiction might have provoked divorce proceedings in another state.😈

Who is your "Person"?
It's important to recognize that you cannot go through life as easily on your own. My name is Elizabeth and I'm a survivor of child abuse and horrific trauma. Healing from trauma is not a quick fix and recognizing that it will take time, is part of the struggle.

Ah, such fun, sounds like a random Friday night Zoom session in an online Old English seminar because we can’t just dive into Beowulf until we know exactly how something sounds. Or for extra fun, those terms come in mighty handily when learning about the various Scandinavia languages. Although, admittedly, there doesn’t seem to be much help for Danish which just blends and blurs everything until it all sounds like a bunch of vowels. Reminds me of an old boyfriend from Winston-Salem who had a first class case of mountain mush mouth. Hmm, perhaps you can work with any or all of this, Harper. I look forward, as always, to your creations.
What an interesting haiku. I had a hard time pronouncing these words. So I had to read them to myself twice and then I read them aloud. It was kind of choppy when I read them. But still I enjoyed this fun exercise. You’re so clever and creative.
This was fun, to pronounce them all, Harper.
so satisfying to say out loud 💖✨
