Writing

  • WIPpet Wednesday on a Tuesday.

    It’s like Spaghetti Tuesday on Wednesday, but backwards and with writing! Since I have an interview with Elaine Jeremiah scheduled for tomorrow to discuss her latest release, Reunion of the Heart, and because I don’t really have much of an idea for a post today anyway, I thought I’d do my sneaky little unofficial Wednesday…

  • Last week was an interesting one. Due to a variety of events, I wound up putting in more than thirty hours at my part-time job. Due to the variety of events still leaving some residual problems, I’m finding myself with about twice as many hours as I would like for my “part-time” job. It’s definitely…

  • Send me your stories!

    This is pretty exciting for me, because I’m usually a horrible procrastinator who gets all lost in all the things she has going on so a lot of things slip through the cracks, but I’m all caught up reading through my current World Unknown Review submissions! Which is fantastic, because I’ve already got a good…

  • Now, I know the whole WIPpet Wednesday is an official thing and everything, but right now, I’m kind of like that kid on the sidelines who tosses a football around to herself while the team plays out on the field, sort of doing my own thing in my old world because I feel bad about…

  • When I cam across Harlequin’s So You Think You Can Write contest, at first I laughed. And then a little spark in my brain went off, and I thought, “I could so totally do this.” Romance isn’t in my wheelhouse AT ALL, but I understandt he appeal and the potential benefits of delving into it.…

  • RoW80 Update: This is the End?

    I’m going to be 100% honest. I have no idea when this round of RoW80 officially ends. I know when the next one begins (October 6th!), but I don’t know when this one ends. That’s fine, too, because my goals have sort of run their course. So, even though I’m pretty sure this isn’t the…

  • Give me a Break!

    Yesterday, I did what I know all people must do but, somehow, can rarely bring myself to actually do it: I took a break from writing. One of the hardest things to adjust to since I began to focus on writing full-time is the concept that writing is work, and, as such, you cannot work…

  • It’s been an odd couple of days for me, though not necessarily in a bad way. I did some much-needed rearranging in the bedroom for my rare Monday off, though I didn’t get a lot of writing work done. I’m oddly at peace with that, mostly because I’m finally getting a good grip on the…

  • “Heartless” Inspiration.

    Excuse me while I drop a ton of images that have totally been inspiring me for the big attempt to write the draft for Heartless in November, mostly found on reddit. I don’t really have much to post today, as I slept in and have to leave for the part-time soon (and I know I…

  • Every single time. I swear, it happens like clockwork, every single time. I start to feel really dull and uncertain with my direction, I take a day where I mostly don’t do anything and feel really guilty about it, only to have my batteries totally recharged the next day, forging forward with confidence and certainty…
