  • #BookADay Post II.

    Well, here we are, for another installment of my somewhat disjointed #BookADay journey through June! Today’s six entries still don’t catch me up, but, by the next post, I should definitely be there, if not a little closer. I’m unable to do this every day, so it’s more #BookEveryFewDays for me. Whatever. It’s a chance…

  • As we race toward the finish line for raising money for Soulless, I wanted to offer a few more tidbits of incentive to join the fun and donate with a few character snippets. Now, it’s a little difficult to explain too much about the characters without giving things away, which is why I’ve been fairly…

  • #BookADay Post I.

    Due to the nature of my blog, my personal time constraints, and the unexpected blips like my last computer being rendered defunct like the Wicked Witch of the West (that is, thanks to H2O), I usually don’t participate in a lot of daily challenges that pop up around the web. Still, the #BookADay challenge really…

  • The River Runs Dry.

    Some days, you just can’t think of anything to post. Most of those days, I just don’t post. No big deal; I learned a while ago that there’s no point in stressing out over blogging every day. Other days, I realize I keep dying on HabitRPG, so I should post so don’t lose as many…

  • ACEN!

    Rather unexpectedly, I’m finding myself actually able to make it to Anime Central in Rosemont this year. While C2E2 is definitely my preferred Chicago-area convention, I wasn’t able to make it this year, so the impromtpu chance to hit up ACen was a nice surprise. ACen was actually my first con, so it has a…

  • For the life of me, I can’t remember which blog it was that I follow that posted this idea, mostly because I wasn’t planning on using it. But, come today, I was stuck for a blog topic, and realized how fun it could be to explore it a little. Basically, this unknown blogger (ugh, I…

  • So, the boyfriend and I finally went to go see Captain America: the Winter Soldier yesterday, and it was really, really, really good. As usual, I left the theater feeling pretty charged and excited. Marvel movies these days have that effect on me, and I really hit the jackpot on figuring out why. This latest…

  • 1. Write Things By Hand.

    Thought Catalog recently posted Brianna Wiest’s 18 Things Everyone Should Start Making Time For Again, some of which I agree with, some of which I could take or leave, and the number one thing being “Write Things By Hand.” Since it was the number one thing and it’s a thing I’ve reveled in doing for…

  • And We’re Off..

    Today is, of course, November First, which, in addition to Candy Hangover Recovery, is the start of National Novel Writing Month. I participate every year, though I’ve yet to “win” one. I came incredibly close last year, and I have a great feeling about this year, too, so perhaps this is the year it happens.…

  • Lately, I have become One of THOSE people. One of which people, you may ask? One of THOSE, the type of people who post pictures of their culinary adventures online. So far, most people don’t seem to mind and I’ve been given accolades by my coworkers for my fine cooking finesse. One of my friends…
