I'm back, baby! Sort of... I know, I know, I haven't had any posts other than my Snippets for almost two whole months now. Okay, more like a month and three quarters. Close enough. I was doing a post for Friday's when I would stop at the library to blog hop for snippets, but someone … Continue reading Back to Normal! Almost…

What’s Next?
I feel lost... Camp NaNo has officially ended for April and now I'm not quite sure what I'm doing with myself. It always feels this way after one of these months; like I'm supposed to be doing something but I can't quite figure out what. I feel like I should still be making a mad dash in … Continue reading What’s Next?
Winner! But Not Done Yet
That's right! I made it, baby! Camp NaNoWriMo April 2016 WINNER! 28 days, 61,060 words (61,038 after validating), 128 pages, 6.5 chapters finished, and one more chapter started. This is the highest goal I've ever set for a NaNo month and I made it! I'm quite proud of that. It's been an interesting month to … Continue reading Winner! But Not Done Yet
New Goals, Planning Ahead, and Difficult Characters
40,131... Forty thousand, one hundred and thirty-one... Forty thousand words... Ho-ly. Shit. Are those numbers for real? I've written 40k for Camp NaNo in eleven days? (More like eight because I did not write for three days this month.) I am on a roll! I wish I knew what my secret was for this month … Continue reading New Goals, Planning Ahead, and Difficult Characters
Word Count: Goals, Hopes, and Insanity
I'm not sure if it's just the maddened excitement of NaNo, or if it's my excitement of getting closer and closer to finishing this book that has me writing like crazy. Or maybe it's me setting more personal, higher goals than what my actual goal for one day is. Whatever it is! It's definitely working! … Continue reading Word Count: Goals, Hopes, and Insanity
The Descent to Madness Begins!
Or is it ascent for me? Well, either way: Hello Camp, Goodbye Sanity!! Camp NaNoWriMo for April has begun! I started writing last night as soon as midnight hit and got in 3.5k words before I turned into dreamland at about 4:15am. I had already requested the day off from work so I knew I … Continue reading The Descent to Madness Begins!
Planning Ahead
I am really bad at planning ahead. Okay, wait, let me rephrase that: I am quite capable of planning ahead, I do it a lot. In fact, I planned out how my entire year was going to go goal wise and writing wise. What I'm really bad at is seeming to stick to that. Either … Continue reading Planning Ahead
March Goals
Okay, maybe before I get into that I should start by saying how February's goals went, and, well... They didn't go so much as planned. I started off really good! I was writing consistently, I kept up with my Wednesday Words flash fictions, I was on track with the camping entries, and I had my doctor appointment … Continue reading March Goals
New Month, New Start
Yeah, I know, it sounds so cliché, but that's essentially what it boils down to anymore. January actually went pretty decent for me, for once. I got through some journaling, got all my goals and such set up, made a tentative time frame that I believe I can work with for the rest of the … Continue reading New Month, New Start
One Thing at a Time, One Step at a Time
So earlier I sat down to try to work out my thoughts better on the goals I made for 2o16. I journaled it out, going into more detail on what I would need to accomplish them, and the type of time frames I could be looking at. (Seriously, journaled isn't a word according to auto-correct? Well, … Continue reading One Thing at a Time, One Step at a Time
