How many of you writers out there journal as well? A few of you? A lot of you? I do at least. I find that sometimes it just helps to get everything flowing again, or that it helps to just clear what's on your mind so that you can focus on writing your novel, story, … Continue reading Journal Your Heart Out

‘Tis the Season
Happy Freaking New Year. And you know what that means? Resolutions and goals that you hope you actually stick to and accomplish throughout the new coming year. But do you ever actually follow all the way through with them? In my experience, no. Then again I've said countless times I'm a total flop when it … Continue reading ‘Tis the Season
So It Begins
Well, it's official, I'm a crazy idiot. Remember me saying a week and a half to two weeks ago now that I was still watching a tug of war take place in my mind over doing NaNoWriMo or not? And how I predicted I would make up my mind at 11:59pm on October 31st to … Continue reading So It Begins
For The Win!
I did it! That's right! This girl made goal three days early! 28 days, 50,409 words (50,387 words according to NaNo after validating), 103 pages, and 7 chapters later, I have hit my dream goal of 50k. And you know what? I am damn proud of myself. I should be, too. I hadn't thought I … Continue reading For The Win!
Cuckoo Crazy With Camp! (And Life)
So, I've totally lost track of days and time this whole week. Monday night, I remembered I needed to make a blog post for Tuesday at midnight. I remember ending up not making the post before I went to bed just because I was tired and wasn't too sure what to write at the moment. … Continue reading Cuckoo Crazy With Camp! (And Life)
Creative Crazy Cabins and Chapter Curveballs
(No, I did not make that title all C's on purpose, what are you talking about? LOL) So my writing for Camp seems to have slowed down a little. I was at 28k on Friday, now I'm at 34k. I was even off on Saturday and Monday, and I didn't do nearly as much writing … Continue reading Creative Crazy Cabins and Chapter Curveballs
So Close To Goal? Already?
Alright, more Camp NaNo ramblings here. On Tuesday's post, I had said I was at 18.7k words all together (roughly). Three days later, I'm now at 28k. My goal is 31k. I have a feeling I'm going to hit that tomorrow. Only ten days into the month... As soon as I hit 30k, I am … Continue reading So Close To Goal? Already?
Bumps And Races
So it's officially been a whole week of Camp, and I can definitely say I have not slowed down, at all. I may have hit a few minor bumps, but I'm still racing along here. I'm now currently sitting at 18,756 words, which is doubled what I had last Friday. I had today off from … Continue reading Bumps And Races
Steamrolling Through The Madness
So, remember on Tuesday I said I was afraid I would be scrambling to keep up to my 1k a day count to keep on par with goal for Camp? And remember me saying it was going to spiral me further into madness between work and writing? Yeah... Things aren't really happening that way. I … Continue reading Steamrolling Through The Madness
Light A Fire Under Me
The second Camp NaNoWriMo starts in a week again and once more I am crazy enough to dive into it. Just like last Camp, I'm going to be working on the same fantasy novel that I'm taking snippets from on Sundays, Darkness Becomes Her. I just have to make sure I know where I'm going … Continue reading Light A Fire Under Me
