I had one goal in May: finish and revise a novelette for submission in the first week in June. So, How'd That Go? Short Version: I did it! (cue confetti and party horns 🎊🎊🎊) I finished my novelette, revised it and had it ready to submit several days before the submission window opened (which never... Continue Reading →
Hi! Hello! It's me! I'm not dead. I've just been busy/trying to ignore reality/trying to figure out what to do in the reality that I'm forced to live in. Since, this is my writing blog, I'll focus on my writing, where I'm at with it and what my plans are moving forward. As much as... Continue Reading →
For some reason, I'm feeling particularly excited about October this year. I do love Halloween, but I don't usually feel this level of excitement for it. Maybe it's because for the first time in my life, I'm in my own house and I can decorate it however I want to (this is going to be... Continue Reading →

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 →
Continuing my new tradition of keeping track of my goals from month to month (we'll see how long I can keep this up), it's time to see how April went and what my plans for May are. Before I get down into the nitty-gritty, I know that I didn't achieve as much as I did... Continue Reading →
At the start of this month, I wrote a post outlining my writing goals. Now that March is over I'd like to examine how well I did considering that I was dealing with a wrist injury and to outline my April goals. So, How'd I Do? 1.) My first priority was completing the first draft of... Continue Reading →
When I was about nine or ten, I read a picture book illustrating the entirety of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem "There Was a Little Girl" or as I always think of it "The Girl with the Curl in the Middle of Her Forehead." For some reason, that poem, especially the first stanza, has always stuck with me.
