Sort Of Goals, Holiday Madness, and NaNo Down Spiral
So for awhile I totally forgot it was Tuesday and that I needed a blog post. It doesn't feel like Tuesday to me. The worst part is I had no idea what I was even going to write about, and honestly, I still don't really know so this could be a very well bullshitted blog post … Continue reading Sort Of Goals, Holiday Madness, and NaNo Down Spiral

Win Like A Warrior
Well, I did it. 30 days, 50,157 words after validating (50,177 words according to my Word doc), 118 pages, and 8 chapters. My first big November win is in the bag. I thought I wasn't going to make it a few times, thought of giving up a few times too. I prevailed and pushed through … Continue reading Win Like A Warrior
Final Days
Two days... Just two days left to NaNoWriMo. At this moment, I need 7,790 words in this two days to validate. It's doable, definitely doable with me.

Welcome to a piece of Wednesday Word’s flash fiction on Darkling Dreams! A good friend of mine, P.T. 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.

The Final Stretch
We're in the final stretch of NaNoWriMo now. Just a week left. (I'm not counting today because it's nearly over now.) Are you panicking yet? I'm not, surprisingly. Not really at least. I am a little bit because I work the rest of this week -- yes, including Thanksgiving, retail sucks -- and I don't know … Continue reading The Final Stretch
