Girl who never slept by Kenya D. Williamson

#OUATTE Once Upon A Time there was a girl who never slept. The sheep she counted bleated. So, instead, she knitted woolly sweaters. The End.

Kenya is a screenwriter, novelist and actress who lives in LA (she maintains it's because she doesn't really want to move back to Levittown, Pennsylvania but I think she's just been modest because I don't believe anyone stays in LA unless they are successful - I mean, even the Beckhams are moving back to Blighty.)

Do check out her website http://www.kenyadwilliamson.com/ as well as her brand new blog in which she shares very candidly about her journey from acting to writing Sleep Deprivation and Me: A Love Story.

Sledgehammer

#OUATTE Once Upon A Time there was a noisy sledge hammer on my street. We had words. It went away promising never to return. The End.
