Okay, so it's been a minute since I've posted anything. Somewhere along the line of the beginning of this year even my Wednesday Words Reborn prompt series got swept under the rug. I kept telling myself I would start again the first Wednesday of the new month. And the next month... And the month after … Continue reading Writing Prompt Series Revision & Revival

Plot Bunnies! Plot Bunnies Everywhere!
Every author out there knows showers and baths can be our greatest source of inspiration for new ideas or plot fixes. However, they don't always comply with the stories we want the idea or fix for. Why you ask? Simple. Because that would be too easy. The other day as I was trying to figure … Continue reading Plot Bunnies! Plot Bunnies Everywhere!
Distractions
They get in the way. They always get in the way. My last couple days have been nothing but distractions, half of them the pleasant kind and the other half the by-the-Gods-I'm-going-to-flip-the-hell-out kind. Have you ever realized that when you tell yourself you're going to sit down and write, and then you do sit down, … Continue reading Distractions
Indecisiveness
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

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
Crazy Wonderland
So I'm not so much drowning and behind on a lot of things anymore. Well, sort of... Okay, that's mostly a lie. No, I lied again. It is a lie. I am caught up on blog hops finally, so there's that. My desk is at least semi organized yet for the most part. But, I, … Continue reading Crazy Wonderland
Dreams and Writing
How many of you out there have had a vivid dream that turned into this amazing plot and storyline? Probably a lot of you. Our imagination loves to brew up crazy ideas and scenarios in our heads while we dream. The tricky part is remembering them when we wake up so we can use them. … Continue reading Dreams and Writing
Knocked Up Plot Bunnies
So, my three days off was actually really productive. Of a list of twenty things to do, I crossed off sixteen of them. I am proud of myself for that. My notes for my camping journal took much longer than I expected, but I got all of them done. (Mostly, minus a few minor things … Continue reading Knocked Up Plot Bunnies
Magical Creatures Galore
Mythical. Magical. Mystical. The joys, and hardships, of writing a fantasy novel when you find yourself trying to create a creature. I have two creatures I already have planned out and made, but I feel like I should be making some more. I have an idea for one, but I can't seem to get how … Continue reading Magical Creatures Galore
