A Quiet Experience is a platform for prose written by a young, prolific blogger based in the Midwest. I go by Chelsea, but will also answer to @truelane. AQE is place that explores the interests and fascinations of daily life in addition to one girl's preferences when it comes to music, film, and books. A dedicated writer and lifelong student of language, A Quiet Experience provides an outlet for the content that won't quite fit in my personal journal. Some people are pros at essays; some at stories, some at nonfiction, some at poetry or epic novels. I like to try my hand at all of it and poke fun at myself while I do it. Here you'll find opinions—usually not strong ones—and

pieces full of flowery language and deceptively erudite comments about current publications, pop culture, and events. "Long words and long-winded" is the best way to describe my writing style. Regardless of how I present myself in the real world, this is how things look in my mind. This is the product of the thoughts swirling around an ever-active millennial brain. Creativity may not be my strongest quality or biggest talent, but the effort exuded makes up for whatever shortcomings my lack of lifeliving length and limited experiences create. It's one thing to write for others; it's a whole different ball game to write for yourself. After years of trying to stay shielded from the

consequences of honesty, A Quiet Experience came to be in the right place at the right time. Introverts have a solid stereotype as people who never want to share with others, often misrepresented, as many want to share but don't know how. A Quiet Experience searches through what it means to be an introvert in an extrovert's world; how to speak up when it does or doesn't matter, how to be real in a world where people generalize and stereotype with aplomb. Bonjour and bienvenue to the reality of a twenty-something gal, A Quiet Experience, a place to come Internetally home after exploring the ends of the universal mind.
