• Poor Use of Time.

    I am very frustrated with myself today. Well, perhaps very is a little harsh. I don’t think I’ve waken up enough or had coffee enough to really feel anything too powerfully at this particular moment, but I am thinking about my day off yesterday and the things I managed to get done. Or, more appropriately,…

  • Sometimes, when I have a vivid story-like dream that I can remember in the morning when I wake up enough to be able to mention it here on this blog and utilize later for a piece of fiction, I can take pretty good guesses at why my brain might be in the space that created…

  • Dream Drabbles: Soup!

    It’s been a while since I’ve woken up to remember a dream that could be turned into a story; last night, I finally had a few, but there was only one, the last one before I woke, that really stuck with me and could be interesting to try to develop more. I find it interesting…

  • I’m not sure if this is something I plan on doing regularly, like Author Quotes or Dream Drabbles, but it is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while now. I have an awful lot of characters in my head at all times, and sometimes, it helps me just to talk about them a…

  • So, some of my more regular readers (who are very awesome) may have noticed a little blip in my productivity this weekend. Usually, I’m pretty good about posting something every day except for most Sundays, but this weekend, it became an impossible task to post something decent that I could be proud of. I’m sure…
