1. "Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper."

About

To those who found their way to my tumblr, hello and welcome. My name is Melissa. I'm a 22 year old college graduate working crappy jobs day and night living life and taking joy where it finds me. I'm a storyteller at my most fundamental of levels and tell them in the ways in which they should be told-sometimes in words, sometimes in drawings or painitngs, sometimes in silence. Shared here is a lot of my own personal work, along with anything that inspires the storyteller in me, things that simply take my breath away in both laughter and beauty. Enjoy the journey. Every story is heard.
