  • New RoW80 Goals!

    Today begins a new Round of Words in 80 Days, which means a new set of goals to carry me through to the end of the year. This last round is always a little awkwardly placed for me, because NaNoWriMo tends to fall smack dab in the middle of it. With that taken into consideration,…

  • NaNoWriMo Prep.

    Hey, guess what, it’s October now! Which means that, in addition to trying to get as much out of Madeline as I can before I have to shift gears and pushing the heck out of World Unknown Review before the October 31st deadline, I’m going to start getting all my ducks in a row for…

  • “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…

  • 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…

  • RoW80 Update: Those Few Bad Days…

    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…

  • RoW80 Update: That’s more like it!

    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…

  • Author Quotes: Bach.

    “A professional writer is an amateur who didn’t quit.” – Richard Bach I was scoping out this article about what to do when you don’t feel like writing (an absurd concept, really, but I thought it would be helpful for those times when I can’t focus on writing), and they used this quote to emphasize…

  • RoW80 Update: Putting the “Labor” in “Labor Day.”

    We’ve reached Sunday yet again, readers, which means another RoW80 update, slightly different, because this is one of those rare Sundays I have to go into the part-time job. I don’t really mind so much, because we actually get “premium” pay (if you count $1 more an hour premium) on Sundays. I also worked yesterday…

  • What Will You Read?

    Since I’ve been really exploring a lot of advertising online, I’ve been thinking a lot about who even looks at these random sites looking for books and what exactly they might be looking for. I haven’t gotten any return from them yet that I know of, so there’s something that’s missing. I know it’s not…

  • RoW80 Update: Ups and Downs.

    It’s funny how the world can shift, isn’t it? Not too long ago, my Wednesday check-ins were my better check-ins, filled with all the work I used to get done on Monday and Tuesday, since the weekend left me scrambling for an update on very little for Sundays. Now that I’ve moved into a new…
