Hi! I'm Lara. Welcome to my virtual home!

Instagram @VerityLane

Working with poet and novelist Ron Koertge this semester, and I've already written two poems today. The poetry spigot has been loosened, people. Let's hope the brown water clears up quick. I'm excited!

Wisdom from Laura Ruby's lecture on writing what scares you: Our subconscious mind leaves hints for our conscious to find. Sometimes they are like breadcrumbs. Sometimes they are like the presents cats leave--little headless bird carcasses. #Truth #PatternsEverywhere #HamlineMFAC

Selfies, photobombers, and Erin Entrada Kelly 🤓😂😍 #HamlineMFAC #MFACLara

"A picture book is a dream with a little bit of logic." --@jahnclough So glad I got to connect with Lisa this residency (she is usually winters only)! Working with her last semester taught me so much. She is a wealth of information, she gives great advice, and I love hearing her stories. 💛 #HamlineMFAC

Do dragons get heartburn?

Don't drink and paint 😂 Can you see what's wrong in this picture?

All the 80s/90s nostalgia this summer makes me miss Daria, so I channeled her for a new painted profile pic. #newprofilepic

Re-watched Captain Marvel tonight, letting the 8yo stay up late to watch it with us. Of course I had to explain to him what a Blockbuster was. He also wondered why we were laughing at the computer errors and loading bars. 😂😭👵🏼 👧🏼: me, age 4ish 📷: one of my parents 🗓: circa 1992 🤔 Why was my mom or dad using up precious film taking a picture of me inside a Blockbuster (or whatever movie rental variety Fargo had at the time)? 📼❇📟 #captainmarvel #WhenIWasYourAge #80s #90s #andtoday
