As I mentioned last post, I'm participating in NaNoWriMo this year. I was hesitant about doing NaNo again, cuz I find it to be a pretty hit or miss experience for me. Some years it's great for knocking out a rough draft and getting a story that's been in my head for a while down... Continue Reading →
Update and NaNo 2019
Hello. After the awesomeness of my September Writing Challenge, October was a bit more chill on the writing side of things. I met with my writing group to go over their feedback on one of my novels, and I've been working on rereading that novel and making my editorial notes before I dive into revisions....

Looking Towards September
I had several many goals, both writing and non-writing related during August. Let's see how I did, shall we? How'd I Do, August? Let's start with the writing goals first: I finished the revision pass on my current WIP and created my spreadsheet outline for the draft so that I can visualize the story structure...

The Have Done List
Like many people, I function as a result of my many to-do lists. I have one for each of my writing projects, one for household management, a create a new list everyday, and I frequently have a bigger picture list running for the week or month. But even though these lists help me remember to... Continue Reading →
December Postmortem
I set myself some difficult goals for December (difficult for me, at least, being the super introvert that I am). Let's see how that all went down, shall we? How'd I Do? Not great, at a summary, but let's break it down, shall we. 1.) Banjo. I haven't done as well with my banjo as... Continue Reading →
2018 In Review
I've done so much this year that it feels like I should just take next year off. Which is bizarre considering that I've just passed the first anniversary of resigning my full-time job. So what exactly did I do? In January, I finished my part of recording All Stove Up for Miners Creek and then... Continue Reading →
November Postmortem
Welp, it's that time again, where I make one post to write about all the things I did but failed to blog about. November was busy. I went to a con, I organized my desk (this is a huge deal, y'all), I actually finished - like washed, dried, folded, and put away - all my... Continue Reading →
Wait. How is it November?
I think I'm about ready for August to be over. The fact that it's already November boggles my mind. What did I do with two months worth of time? Where did it all go? I guess I'm writing this to find out in addition to continue my efforts towards accountability (how's that for vague). I... Continue Reading →
Summer Postmortem
My last Postmortem post was back in May, so I've got some catching up to do, but instead of panicking about all the shit I haven't done or talked about, I'm going to attempt to take things one at a time and lay out where I'm at and where I want to be by the... Continue Reading →
