• Yesterday was a pretty interesting day for a lot of reasons…day off, walk in the park and a visit to the library in my new town with my guy, a pretty solid scope of work finished, and some delicious food…but the biggest thing about yesterday was that I finally went to the post office to…

  • 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…

  • My Muse works Overtime.

    We’ve been having cold, rainy weather in Chicagoland these past few days, and I’ve picked up a handful of cheesy teen horror books from the ’90s about spooky houses and cursed families, so I’ve been finding myself wanting to return to Rosewood Manor. The characters of my haunted house story have been nagging at me…

  • Isn’t it awful how just a few bad days can throw you off your game? And those few bad days can easily happen in between RoW80 updates! But, just as those few bad days can put you off your goals, a few good days afterwards can set them right again, and I’m going into the…

  • Yesterday, I couldn’t think of a post. So, I figured a good thing to put up today since I still can’t really think of a post today, I thought I’d open it up to discussion with a question that I saw on a questionnaire recently, especially since I really liked the last time I just…

  • Hello, everyone! Welcome to yet another RoW80 update. I’m starting this post much more cheerfully than the others because I’ve finally managed to make some major headway on moving thanks to an unexpected weekend off of my part-time job. In addition to making some headway on the moving, I’ve managed some time to get a…

  • Big Fish, Little Fish.

    So, I came across this article from Levo (and I love the title they gave it in the coding; very clever!), a brief discussion on whether it may be better to be a big fish in a little pond or a small fish in a big pond. Both have their merits, as well as their…
