Now that I’ve pretty much officially moved into the boyfriend’s apartment (the cats are settled, so that makes it legit), this next week or two is going to be about getting all my crap moved over (no easy task, as there’s significantly less room here) and finding myself a new routine that works around sharing…

Although it hasn’t been a perfectly smooth start back into my new goals, I am proud to say that Sunday was the first day in ages I managed to crush all my daily goals on HabitRPG. Man, that feels good! And it also gives me confidence for a successful and productive second half of this…

With The Slayer Saga: Soulless out and ready for the masses (finally!), it’s time for me to sit down and reassess my goals for the remainder of this Round of Words in 80 Days. The thing with something like publishing a book is that it takes all your energy and focus and, once it’s finished,…

The other day, I received an email from one of the many journal’s I’ve submitted to, informing me that they were going to pass on my piece. This is a familiar sight for me, always a little disappointing, but, at the same time, understandable. I did have hopes for this piece because it’s one of…

Yesterday morning, I received an email from the editor of a publication about a story I had submitted to them a few months ago, the typical response you get used to, politely declining to use your story because it wasn’t what they were looking for. At least, that’s the response I usually get, and, though…

Well, it’s Wednesday again, meaning it’s time for the RoW80 check-in I usually get in on time! Things have been kind of crazy around here, as I really buckle down and hone in on getting things done for the August 15th release date of The Slayer Saga: Soulless! I’m incredibly excited, ridiculously nervous, a little…

I came across this post from The Magical Adventures of Cassie the Weird and thought it was a really cool idea. Which authors can claim the title of having the most books owned by me? I have a lot of books, so these are mostly guesses, but here’s my best guess on my Top Ten…

Well, I’ll cut to the chase about one thing before I get into my RoW80 check in: I didn’t get that apartment I fell in love with. The reason I didn’t get that apartment was because of something stupid I did when I didn’t know any better, that messed up my credit, and will not…

The past two days have been…interesting, if you couldn’t tell by the fact that my RoW80 update is a day late. Aside from my minor meltdown and applying for a perfect, bigger-than-expected, totally-in-love-with-it, vintage ’20s apartment (which I am waiting to hear back from with bated breath; the guy said he’d get in touch once…

So, anyone remember on my last RoW80 update, where I touted the joys of being able to get back on track? Yeah, well, that was before I realized my days off actually corresponded with my boyfriend’s days off, and we decided to take advantage of this fortuitous and rare event to just spend a day…
