Hello gentlepeople, welcome to Muted Mouthful! My name is Tiara (She/They/pronoun fluid), your humble host and guide through the inner workings of my mind. Muted Mouthful is a safe space I've created for myself, and hopefully, others, to navigate through some of life's cringiest moments. As someone that has felt misunderstood and out of place for most of my life, I now understand how important it is to share your story; this blog allows me to do so in the form of personal essays and creative writing. I hope we will be able to laugh, cry, and cringe together. If nothing else, you just made a new, quirky, weirdo friend!

Love is weird. I don’t need to say more than that. But when you find someone or someone(s), it can be the start of an amazing adventure.

I thought it would be nice to share my experience as an introvert with social anxiety would help differentiate the two.
Curious to find out more about the person behind the blog? Well, you’re in luck, I am participating in the “10 Unusual Things About Me” tag. Promise we’ll still be friends?
Refusing to play by the rules is seen as a millennial trait instead of our parents or grandparents acknowledging the times are shifting. I feel people say “it’s your wedding, you can do what you want.” Then in the next breath go, ” but, you HAVE TO do these things.” I am taking the former to heart, at the cost of being labeled as the worst.
Fall is upon us! Let’s take a moment to celebrate the joys of autumn.
I was nominated for the Blogger Recognition Award.
A beautiful night ends in murder on the gentle waters of Venice. Based on an original 25-word short story.
After months of being shrouded in mystery, I decided to reveal a little more about myself; what better way to do that by completing a Meet the Blogger tag.
In the sixth installment of Awkward, Anxious, and Average, Jayla can’t sleep. Her intrusive alarm clock keeps her up at night.
