It's the last day of September? Already? Where has this month gone?! It seriously feels like it just started and already it's over. It may feel like it was really short, but in terms of things I had going on and exhaustion, it's been a really, really long month. Tomorrow is my first free day … Continue reading Running On Fumes

Goal Stretching
So remember on Tuesday I said I'd have my in depth look to my September goals today because I honestly wasn't quite sure on them yet? Yeah... I'm still not quite sure on them. I think part of my problem in deciding on a goal is because I'm unsure how much more of my time … Continue reading Goal Stretching
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
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
Taking A Chance
The yard sale is over. Finally. Thankfully. However, it didn't go as well as I had hoped. After all the stress, hassle, extreme lack of sleep, worry, anger, frustration, and work, I still came home with 90% of the stuff I took down to sell. *Sigh* Somehow it didn't seem worth it now. Since I … Continue reading Taking A Chance
Hello, August. So Long, Camp.
Welcome to August, Darklings! Where has the time gone? Summer is half way over. Pretty soon we'll be thinking of back to school and college, warm hoodies and bonfires, pumpkin flavored everything, changing leaves, breezy days, and, of course, All Hallow's Eve. (That last one I'm totally okay with. I honestly wish Valentine's Day would become … Continue reading Hello, August. So Long, Camp.

Ending With A Bang
Camp NaNo July 2016 WINNER! That's right! This girl made goal on Sunday! With a week left to spare. It was a roller coaster of a month for writing. With so much going on and computer issues in the beginning leading to a late start to NaNo, but I pulled through and made the measly … Continue reading Ending With A Bang

Violent Cabins, Cliffhangers, and So Close Finish Lines
So apparently my cabin mates for Camp are quite violent with their characters. For the past few days, every time I log on to pop in and see what's new in the cabin, I find us talking about killing and fighting. I've got one cabin mate who's wondering if a certain injury is possible from … Continue reading Violent Cabins, Cliffhangers, and So Close Finish Lines
