Hey everyone! Anyone else on here get migraines? I’ve been getting them more frequently lately. The irony being that I have overhauled my life considerably to be less stressful, and yet…the migraines persist. This week during Tammy Evans’ PUSH group (which I’ve talked about here before), she gave us two prompts inspired by a poemContinue reading “Writing Prompts & Migraines”
