Na Na Na Na Na Na

Chapter 1 – [Insert Catchy Title Here] By Juliette Lyst As the sometimes-booed narrator of my own life, I did feel a twinge of pain today as I sat in front of two separate shredders. The task ahead was as clear as day, but something I still had to push through. So… I remember noting… Continue reading

Different Shades Of Scarlet

What a wild day I’ve had. Well, at least so to me. It was very… active. Not that I used to be an active person before my health got to this state—but I was out the house a lot more often. For emphasis, let’s look at something, hmm? The vehicle I drive is older than… Continue reading

Terribly Bad Actors

Alright… let’s address the elephant in the room. Yes, I am still upset due to having to attend two memorial services in two days. Also, I have unpublished my novel. Of course, it’ll still be on the digital KDP side for 90 days, but other than that, no. The sort of content it has… is… Continue reading

Houses and Doors

I find it very funny that I need to completely change my music to be in the correct mood to work on anything for NtC. Sad too, but mostly funny. Some of my music was also on loop for Catch & Release as well. I got the idea for it while humming along with an… Continue reading

In Expectation

Still recovering from my editing binge. Took my required medication tonight… so there is that. I’m starting to get frustrated with all the research I find myself having to do. Medical techniques, medical equipment… medical terms. Researching for locations and symptoms. And now I’m trying to revise and tweak a birth scene! I honestly thought… Continue reading

My Castle

I’m what my father refers to as “crazy.” What a great way to start a conversation, huh? Or a blog post. This is my second day of not speaking with him on any platforms at all. I spoke with a couple of my friends instead… and that proved to be enough. I sometimes think of… Continue reading

I’ll Give It All To You

Apparently… I do have readers on fanfiction.net. I was completely unaware, seeing as the viewer ticker is borked. So… I guess I’ll have to rescind my decision to up and dip out on that website. Fortunately, I had the idea in mind… already… to have the documents in different files. I’m currently going down the… Continue reading

I Want It All

…and I want it now. Is that too much to ask for? I pressed myself so hard last night until I squeaked. But… I nearly edited 10 chapters in one day. So… Oh, I mean 10 chapters of Navigating the Curve. I’ve already written down notes on continuity issues I’m finding. A downside? I’m going… Continue reading

Lost All Control

Work on NtC in terms of edits is on-going. My body is suffering for it. I’m trying to shove all of the updates and edits… Continue reading

Same Four Walls

It’s December! I can’t believe it. The month blew by so fast… I’m still in shock over how quick everything went. Maybe NanoWrimo worsened my concept of time? Anyway… On AO3, I have the corrected chapters of C&R up, along with two new chapters of it uploaded. I realized an hour ago that I edited… Continue reading
