Wyant, is doing a blog post every Wednesday called Wednesday Words with a new prompt for a bit of flash fiction writing, just to get in the habit of writing something, anything.

Goal Crunching
Another weekend has come and gone, and with it comes the end of August. Where has the time gone? Didn't August just start? With the end of August also comes the deadline of all the goals I had for August, and, er, well... *Clears throat, looks off innocently* Can I skip talking about that? Let's … Continue reading Goal Crunching

Dreams Do Come True
Thunderstorms are amazing. I get to watch one as I fall asleep tonight and the lightning show is pretty damn awesome, so are the bangs coming with you. This might be the best thunderstorm I've had all year. Anyways, now that the energy off of this storm gave me the kick in the rear to … Continue reading Dreams Do Come True

Emotions-5, Daelyn-O
Well I did it. I took the biggest plunge of my life in my writing so far and submitted the short story to the anthology at about 1am on Saturday. (To me it was still Friday but according to the clocks it was Saturday.) I am still terrified. Literally, after setting up the email and attaching … Continue reading Emotions-5, Daelyn-O

This Is It
The moment of truth. The big and scary "holy shit" moment. The "I can't believe I'm actually doing this" moment. If you've paid attention to the past week and a half of my posts, you'll have noticed I've been talking about a submission I've been working on for a Halloween anthology. The deadline for that … Continue reading This Is It

Scarping Versus Scraping
Alright, so I didn't finish writing my short story submission for the anthology by Saturday like I had wanted. I got close, but I was hitting blocks and I was a real cranky bitch for a couple days so not a lot of writing happened. I did write every day, but I didn't finish the … Continue reading Scarping Versus Scraping
