What’s the best fighting style for new #femalefighters who want to learn to defend themselves in modern days? Why? Personally I'd rather learn everything I can from anywhere I feel it's worth, and make my own, but one must always pick a starting point. My suggestion: pick one you think it's going to be fun. … Continue reading Best fighting style for women

That ain't me in the photo. I love blades. Especially swords. Being from Wudang, I have almost an obligation to know at least some. But since my headaches started, Shifu took them away. I would easily have chopped my face off in a moment of agony. Despite understanding the reasons though, I still want them. … Continue reading About swords

They say I’m always angry. Bullshit. Sometimes I’m happy and excited like a little girl. Fuck you, haters. #femalefighters #girlpower * this acct is fictional. Instagram Repost from @lorrendullum Me when I wake up and IT’S FIGHT WEEK 🙌🏻

We create, in front of everyone, something different, every time. … Continue reading Artists of Fist

(does this version work or this one here is better?) EVERY WARRIOR WISHES FOR A GLORIOUS, OR AT LEAST WORTHY END. For me, if it was over I’d be content. When the first sting stroke, sharp and deep, through my temple and into my soul, I knew what was coming. The stabbing, the venom, the … Continue reading The Worst of the Headaches (v2)

The good thing about being me is there aren't photos floating around the Internet. Also the bad part, cause I keep having to describe myself to those who ask. Not the creepy ones though. I liked my hair. Easy. Didn't cover my eyes during the fights; could be grabbed at night, and tied back for … Continue reading Not me, but close

My parents died young, I hoped that was my turn. When the first sting stroke, sharp and deep through my temple and into my soul, I knew what was coming. The ghost stingers, the venom. Piercing through the side of my skull, pouring the poison inside. The dismaying pain, the stab and squeeze, stab and … Continue reading Suicidal Headache
