Time & Attendance
The hiatus schedule is an interesting one. It includes 3 cycles, where I run through all of the stories, by penning out chapters, then using time to go through and edit. Firstly… I’m cutting out “A Good Day” entirely. As per what I posted on the third chapter at the bottom, that story is now… Continue reading

When Enough Is Enough
I never would have seen myself as a woman who dabbled in excess, but a glance at my AO3 page states otherwise. https://archiveofourown.org/users/JulietteLyst/pseuds/JulietteLyst/works Here’s the long-link, because I’m uncertain how well the links on my page work. I finally broke down and gave the stories chapter limits. It’s not because I don’t want to write… Continue reading

Yesterday Was Streak Day 1,234
I almost accidentally deleted all of this.. AUGH.. If you like to read, read on. If not, sorry!! ☹ This is a long blog post. Ridiculously long. Ten pages long in MSWord and over 3,000 words.

You can smell the salt in the air and have the sensation of smallness that comes from the sheer size… Continue reading

Being Uncomfortable
Oddly enough.. Pain Pain lets me know I’m alive, which means I have a promise for another day. ~J. Lyst Continue reading

Letting Go
Warning: Adult-ish content below. I had an excellent follow up with my psychiatrist. I was honest and let her know about my psychiatric break a few weeks ago. She in essence… ordered me to clean up my house again. Because the more depressed I became, the less I wanted to do. The less I do,… Continue reading

Pen It, Baby!
One of my favorite moments is when my imagination goes wild, and I’m able to write down notes and type up what’s happening. I know a lot of writers are very good at having their plots planned out. The most I might do is jot a few bullet points. I’m more of an “organic writer,”… Continue reading

Avec Moi
That is the main person I ever spend any physical time with. I watch TV shows, attend meetings, read my Bible, eat, cook, clean, listen to music and sleep. I also do a whole lot of brainstorming. I’ve started working on Chapter 30 of NtC, working along with my notebook. The problem is that now… Continue reading

Let The Fingers Do The Walking … On The Keyboard
Writing, I think? — Reed shook his head. “R—R—Reed… Reed,” Jennifer struggled. “I didn’t… I didn’t mean that—” She watched as Reed waved a hand. “That… R—Reed…” Her breathing was uneven, and she was beginning to sweat. “It’s fine. This is a routine mission, but we’ll do our best. Mary Jane will keep you… Continue reading
