a moodboard for my work, THE THING ANOUT PIRATES. photos include a woman standing on a beach cliff, the ocean, a woman with brown hair, someone seemingly drowning, a person with lots of black curly hair, two people hugging- one with pale skin and one with bronze skin and long curly hair, a pirate ship seen through a porthole, stairs leading to a beach, and children’s shadows on a staircase.

two blocks of text are on the image, one with lyrics from gold rush by taylor swift reading, “eyes like sinking ships on/waters so inviting/i almost jump in” and the other a sample from the work reading, “whether i realized it or not, i had been trying to drown myself for years.”

a moodboard for “the thing about pirates” featuring siblings sitting on a bed together; cursive script reading “my mind turns your life into folklore” from taylor swift’s song gold rush; a girl with a brown braid over one shoulder; a girl with bronze skin looking though a cloud of dark curls; an androgynous person with grey eyes.

an excerpt from the story is in the middle:

She held the dagger at the side of my neck, pressing it against my hair and skin. Her arm pressed my shoulders harder, as if my hands trying to pull it down didn’t exist. “If you don’t stop acting like an idiot,” she hissed, “I’ll make sure you’re never able to talk again.”
