Fated To Darkness
Reflecting On 2016
I've been quite absent here the past week or so. Last week was a total madhouse of things going on with the holiday season. The week before Christmas is the final and worst Hell Week when you work retail. Since I had my own things I had to finish to be ready for the holiday … Continue reading Reflecting On 2016

Rearing Plot Bunnies
It's been an interesting couple of days. Not just with work and life, but with writing as well. My mind has been quite brain dead lately thanks to the holiday madness and the fact I think I burned out slightly after NaNoWriMo. I haven't been writing because I've both been so busy and exhausted due to those … Continue reading Rearing Plot Bunnies

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. However, I have two work shifts during that time, neither of which are very kind to the productivity scale. I only managed about 1.1k on Monday because of work … Continue reading Final Days
