Nico's Room
“

Winter is for women—
The woman, still at her knitting,
At the cradle of Spanish walnut,
Her body a bulb in the cold and too dumb to think.


Will the hive survive, will the gladiolas
Succeed in banking their fires
To enter another year?
What will they taste of, the Christmas roses?
The bees are flying. They taste the spring.

Sylvia Plath, from “Wintering” (via awritersruminations)

Nico's Room
"A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction." - Virginia Woolf

I'm Nicolyn. I'm an English major concentrating in women's and gender studies in rural Ohio. At any given moment, I'd rather be in Cebu City, Philippines. I have a major thing for cupcakes. I enjoy R.A.S.K.-ing, long walks down Middle Path, nautical themes, kitchen knives, British literature, Spanish futbol, vodka, and dessert wines. I'm in love with the world and I hate it all at once. This blog contains some of the things I write and a lot of the things that inspire my creativity.
