Stepping Back Is Hard To Do
I am a writer. I love creating stories. I love sharing stories. The attention I receive from the views of others on my written literature makes me feel good. I’m even a published author and have plans to work on a second book. This one will be a children’s book, which is why I’ve been… Continue reading

I Do It Every Day
Seeing as I have issues with properly expressing myself in person, I do a lot of writing. And by a lot, I mean a lot. I primarily work with 2019 Microsoft Word because it’s literally free at this point. For NtC, I forced myself to have a minimum of 10,000 words. Completely insane, yes. Some… Continue reading

Scalp Fatigue
It’s like 12:01AM here, and I just remembered I have a funeral to attend at 6AM. I’m trying to figure out if I can get up at 5AM to properly attend. My head might also be hurting due to the reading I just did. I need to work on being very balanced with my lessons.… Continue reading

What’s In A Name?
Since the prior post was about nicknames, I suppose it would make sense to explain where my penname came from. I had a prior one, so I’ll talk about what happened to it… I was trying to distance myself from my prior pen name… which I didn’t write the best things under. At all. I… Continue reading

Rocking My Brain
I’ve been suffering with what I’d call a ‘idea’ worm. I have behind me three notebooks, to the left of me is another notebook and to the far right of me is an additional notebook. All of these notebooks have one thing in common, and what that would be… is their individual ‘identities’ as reservoirs… Continue reading

Bzzz
I once again ran into a future snippet I wrote back in 2022. Good grief. As of tomorrow, that ‘snippet’ will be two years old. So I realize that I need to move towards that actually event. NtC is sitting at a standstill. OA’s been at a standstill since probably 2021… while I try to… Continue reading

Keep It Close In Mind
It’s slow and so very slight, but I’m gradually building up some positive habits. Or at least trying to. Tomorrow, I’ll resume using my lists in earnest. Tonight, I have so much to do… it’s maddening, but I know with the right amount of focus, I’ll be able to finish everything. I recently purchased a… Continue reading

Building A Better Future
It goes without question that today’s blog post title is based on a new chapter I’m due to edit soon. I’m between scratching my head and being very very amused over what’s going to be happening in that chapter. I’m working on the whole “consistency is key” bit with my medication, but I’m starting to… Continue reading

Through Storms
Despite the title, I am not yet looking into work on OA. But… maybe I should. I think it’s entirely possible for me to completely rewrite the fiction from the ground up… just by taking some of the parts from the beginning and using it to fuse it into something. I also have to admit… Continue reading

Points
Got some decent rest in today… thank goodness for that. Tonight, I’ll resume tackling my bedroom. If I’m able, I’d love to do some dusting and vacuuming. However… it all depends on how my spine is doing. I also have fantastic news! I’m on page 12 in Chapter 24 of Navigating the Curve! I always… Continue reading
