What do you do when you have a topic(s) to talk about but you have no idea how to start? Do you just start rambling and hope it brings you along to tie everything together? Or do you hit the ground running and see how much it may or may not suck, and/or work out? That's … Continue reading Indecisiveness

Rough Starts, Outlining, and a Cackling Plot Bunny
I can't believe it's already the 10th of January. Time is already flying by, which is a scary thought for the rest of year, and for all my plans. The first week of January was pretty brutal on me. Mentally and emotionally at least. With my history, that combination is a rather large detriment to accomplishing goals and … Continue reading Rough Starts, Outlining, and a Cackling Plot Bunny
Planning A Year
It's officially 2017. I hope everyone's New Year so far is shaping up as they had hoped. I'm sure there's lots of new goals and resolutions and hope out there. Whatever you're aiming to better or do this year, good for you; and if you have no resolutions, well, then, good for you too. After … Continue reading Planning A Year
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
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
Stressing For A Win
Sooo... I may or may not be rather far behind on NaNo again... Alright, there's no maybe about it. I am. *Sigh* I was supposed to write Tuesday night after I finished my blog post, and, well, yeah. I got sidetracked and I was tired already. I don't think I actually got any words down … Continue reading Stressing For A Win
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
Finding My Way
I am really sucking at writing on the days I work this month. I think there's been a total of maybe four days I worked that I also managed to write. You know the sad part to that? They were during the first week of NaNo when I was so exhausted off my ass that … Continue reading Finding My Way
