  • It’s a little difficult to focus on anything like a RoW80 check in when I’m on the cusp of publishing my second book! The Slayer Saga: Soulless comes out to the world on Friday, and the excitement is getting a little bit nuts. Thankfully, I have at least a shift to work tonight to get…

  • Effective immediately, all of my RoW80 goals are being put on hold, so that I may focus on one single, solitary, gigantic one: the August 15th release of The Slayer Saga: Soulless. It’s kind of hard to believe, but I’m less than two short weeks from making this project live for the public to enjoy…

  • RoW80: Almost There!

    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…

  • 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…

  • Shhh. Quiet. Do you hear that? That soft little breath of a sound, like a sigh? That’s my world coming slightly back together so that I can return to focusing on what really matters and not stressing the fuck out about everything. Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m still stressing out. But at least now…

  • Yes, this is Monday, and RoW0 check-ins are on Sunday, but I wasn’t around much Sunday because Saturday, I went to Exit. Exit is a really seedy, old, late-night (or is it early morning?) punk bar in Chicago, and it’s pretty freaking awesome. The title of this post comes from an epic exchange where a…

  • Tunnel Vision.

    I’m starting the think that the worst thing about being in the last stages before a new book come out is that you get tunnel vision, and all you really see in front of you is that book and its release. For that book, that’s a good thing. You need that tunnel vision to make…

  • I always feel a little funny about the first RoW80 update of a round, usually because it comes up so quickly that you haven’t really done much or gained any traction on your goals. So I thought about skipping this one, as I only posted my goals on Monday, but I really didn’t have much…
