You can tell a lot about how someone feels about you from the way they interact with you.

In the young illustrator from Lyon, we perceive a small touch of the Ghibli spirit. She manages to breathe new life into nature, giving it a soul and a dynamic that testify to its power. His art plays with the play of shadow and light, with colors on the border of the imagination. His compositions are full of simple shapes that come together like a mosaic, offering almost tangible images.

Envy, irritation, paranoia--in contrast to powerful and dynamic negative emotions like anger, these non-cathartic states of feeling are associated with situations in which action is blocked or suspended. In her examination of the cultural forms to which these affects give rise, Sianne Ngai suggests that these minor and more politically ambiguous feelings become all the more suited for diagnosing the character of late modernity. Along with her inquiry into the aesthetics of unprestigious negative affects such as irritation, envy, and disgust, Ngai examines a racialized affect called \"animatedness,\" and a paradoxical synthesis of shock and boredom called \"stuplimity.\" She explores the politically equivocal work of these affective concepts in the cultural contexts where they seem most at stake, from academic feminist debates to the Harlem Renaissance, from late-twentieth-century American poetry to Hollywood film and network television. Through readings of Herman Melville, Nella Larsen, Sigmund Freud, Alfred Hitchcock, Gertrude Stein, Ralph Ellison, John Yau, and Bruce Andrews, among others, Ngai shows how art turns to ugly feelings as a site for interrogating its own suspended agency in the affirmative culture of a market society, where art is tolerated as essentially unthreatening. Ngai mobilizes the aesthetics of ugly feelings to investigate not only ideological and representational dilemmas in literature--with a particular focus on those inflected by gender and race--but also blind spots in contemporary literary and cultural criticism. Her work maps a major intersection of literary studies, media and cultural studies, feminist studies, and aesthetic theory.

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sharon M. Draper comes a debut picture book about a timid little ballerina who learns that the show must go on-and will-with a little help from her friends. Bella loves ballet class and listens hard to the music so she can tippy-toe turn, point, and plie in perfect time. When Madame announces a recital, Bella is determined to do her best. But when she tries to stretch up to leap lightly like a cloud, she wobbles and almost topples-luckily, a friend catches her. Now, Bella's nervous; maybe she can't do this like she thought she could. On recital day, when the curtain goes up and the dancers get in position, Bella freezes. Can she find her courage in time to take the stage? f-c jkt (coated; fx: spot gloss, emboss, foil; matte film)+POB case (diff art)+int. (coated); digital
All my friends thought I was a very happy human being. Because that's how I acted- like a really happy human being. But all that pretending made me tired. If I acted the way I felt, then I doubt my friends would have really hung out with me. So the pretending wasn't all bad. The pretending made me less lonely. But in another way, it made me more lonely because I felt like a fraud. I've always felt like a fake human being. ~ Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Last Night I Sang to the Monster May is National Mental Health Awareness Month. Join me in blogging to erase the stigma of mental illness so our loved ones can seek the help they need. D id you miss me? Yeah, kinda obvious that I didn’t post yesterday. I had every intention of doing so in the morning. But as the day wore on, I just felt more tired, less focused, less confident, and more anxious. Most of all, I felt like a fraud. Just another day in depression land. “I am a Fraud” Many people feel this way from time to time, especially creatives. But people who suffer from depression (and creatives are more likely to suffer from depression) feel like this all the time. It’s not always at the forefront of our minds, but it is there somewhere. Lurking. Waiting. It can smell exhaustion and weakness like a shark smells blood. Wait, do sharks actually smell? Like, they have a nose that sniffs in water? I never thought about that. Oh, sorry, a little ADD moment there. Where was I? Oh yes… Image credit: Lori Tennison I am a fraud. Sometimes this is very true, in the emotional sense. I pretend to be happy-happy, joy-joy because that is what is expected. And to a degree, that’s okay. For the most part, I’m not an even keel, Eyeore type. My depression is what’s known as cyclothymic, which is just as its name implies: cycles of mood. It’s related to bi-polar disorder, but not as extreme. And mine is a mild case. And dear God, if mine’s mild, I truly ache for those who suffer from moderate to severe cases and those with bi-polar disorder. Because let me tell you, even a mild case sucks. Self-criticism is huge bogey for any creative. But especially if you’re depressed. Common phrases that play on repeat in our brains are: “You’ll never be good enough.” “If they only knew who you really are…” “Who are you to think you can contribute anything worthwhile?” “Why can’t you act nicer/happier/more outgoing?” “If you weren’t so lazy, you would accomplish X, Y, Z.” We weren’t born with these phrases playing. We heard them growing up and they’ve stayed with us, haunting us, crippling our abilities and our stripping us of joy. It becomes worse, the critical voice becoming louder, when we don’t sleep well, are dealing with a stressful situation, or have huge changes in our routine. I was dealing with a stressful situation (or not dealing as the case may be) and so the feelings of inadequacy were heightened. So the message I heard was “What makes you think you’re qualified to write about this topic? You haven’t suffered nearly as much as some have. Why would anyone want to hear your story?” And I’m sorry, but I just didn’t have the energy to withstand the negative onslaught of my lizard brain, so I walked away from the computer in shame and defeat. But I also figured it would be better to do that, than to lie and pretend that everything was hunky-dory if it really wasn’t. After all, that’s what this month is all about ~ destroying the stigma, and embracing who we are fully ~ depression and all. Oremus pro invicem, ~ Mikaela What do your inner voices say and how do you silence them?

This is a lovely ad for a blanket. The lady of the house looks like she is admiring its luxuriousness before she wraps it up. I love the happy jumble of ribbons and wrappings at her feet. Can you see the tea cup? I sit on the floor when I wrap Christmas presents. But no matter how neatly I lay out my papers and ribbons, I can never find the scissors. I keep telling myself to put them down in the same spot each time but invariably, I will find them hiding beneath a sheet of colorful paper or tucked just under the sofa’s skirt. When I become cranky, I know it’s time to stop. I wrap in stages now. It’s easy to get irritable during the holidays if we are not careful. With all the running around and all the things to remember, like stamps and cheese and ribbon, we forget that this is supposed to be fun. And that’s when we are apt to forget the beauty of the season altogether and just want it all to be over. Everyone knows it helps to keep lists, start early, and stay organized but even with doing these things, it can all just seem too much for women. And the burdens of Christmas fall directly on women’s shoulders, don’t they? If I could write you a Christmas prescription, I would tell you to take a break from it all. Keep an engrossing book of fiction on your nightstand and when the wrapping or anything else is overwhelming, dip into your book and escape to another place and time. And if you have a soft pretty blanket nearby, pull it up to your chin until you are settled back into the season again. Include tea. I’ll try too…
