“A year ago, I never imagined I’d…” You hear that saying a lot in the Writing Community. Some people can accomplish more than one first draft in a year. Some can have a fully polished novel in that same time frame. Some can multi-task multiple books and ideas at once. Some can make it through … Continue reading “A Year Ago…”

Starting Over
What do you do when everything you've planned for and accounted for happening absolutely flops? Simple. You start from scratch again with a new approach and a new vision. For most people the thought of starting over is terrifying. Myself included. It sounds simple, to start over, but it's anything but simple. Starting over means … Continue reading Starting Over
Looking Forward
I'm well aware this entire blog has been quite silent for a couple years now. 2017 was the last year in which I more consistently blogged, but even then I think it was more just #SnippetSunday hops toward the end of the year. In reality, ever since I started a full time position at the … Continue reading Looking Forward
Finding Topics
Blessed Summer Solstice, folks! It seems like just yesterday it was the start of spring and here we are already at the longest day of the year. I hope many of you get to enjoy the beautiful weather and extended light, I unfortunately have work. It sucks to think the days are going to start … Continue reading Finding Topics
Changes Coming
It has been a month since I have posted anything. I am neither apologizing for that or explaining why I have been absent this time. This year has been a trying roller coaster in many forms, most of which have been downhill drops. Not the fun kind of downhill drop either. A lot changed for … Continue reading Changes Coming
Finding My Way: An Apology and an Explanation
It's been weeks since I've posted anything, and for that I apologize to my followers who pay attention to most or all of my posts. The last few weeks -- month is more like it -- have been really rough, and to be completely honest, I lost my will and passion for a lot of things. For … Continue reading Finding My Way: An Apology and an Explanation
Distractions
They get in the way. They always get in the way. My last couple days have been nothing but distractions, half of them the pleasant kind and the other half the by-the-Gods-I'm-going-to-flip-the-hell-out kind. Have you ever realized that when you tell yourself you're going to sit down and write, and then you do sit down, … Continue reading Distractions
Freedom To Write
I'm finally freeeee! And by free I mean the Hell Seasons of work are finally over! Hooray! Well, the worst of the Hell Seasons are over -- Black Friday/Christmas and inventory -- there's still one other Hell Season left: Easter. And from there everything just kind of starts rolling like a snowball down a giant hill until … Continue reading Freedom To Write
Patterns, Sanity, and an Author’s Mind
So, guess who forgot that they needed a blog post until an hour before midnight again? *Raises hand* Yep, me. I'm such a ditz when it comes to remembering these things anymore. Or, rather, I remember I need a post for all of five minutes and then POOF! Suddenly the thought is gone and the … Continue reading Patterns, Sanity, and an Author’s Mind
Four More Days
Just four more... Four more days of holiday madness and it's finally over. (Technically three since I'm off tomorrow, although I won't be able to just chill, so yeah, four more.) I'm so ready for this season to be over, I'm exhausted. Then again, as soon as this one ends I have to deal with … Continue reading Four More Days
