On top of my day to day life of tackling a two year old and working on my Young Adult Paranormal book, I am working towards other writing projects. I just finished a short story for a literary journal which I mentioned before. It's not my usual genre of writing, but one beta reader loved… Continue reading Contests and Serials

Writing
I am so scared to have anything I write on the internet. My biggest fear is that someone will take what I have written and replace my name with their own. It isn't a matter of work or the the time it took to write that item. It's more because everything I write has a… Continue reading Writing
Procrastination
We all have that moment where we'd rather be lazy and not do anything. Some people have it less and others have it so bad that you wonder if there is a permanent butt impression on the couch. Alas, I am of the latter. Procrastination is thriving in my home. I'm finding myself ignoring the… Continue reading Procrastination
Taking Time
I've been angry a lot lately. Not angry at any specific thing or person; just angry. I've noticed that with all of my crazy reading, running around, and chores, I haven't been doing a lot of ME things. Sure, reading is a ME thing, but it has seem to have become a job. Not that… Continue reading Taking Time
Reading, Writing, And Bug… A Boring Update
It's been a while since I've written a blog post that isn't a review and is just a simple update of my life. Not that my life is anything exciting. It isn't. Well, I've been going through therapy every two weeks to battle my anxiety and obviously it's been doing well. I'm still alive and… Continue reading Reading, Writing, And Bug… A Boring Update
Something’s Off
You know that feeling of dread that comes before something happens? Well, that dread is currently present at the moment. I always have it when I'm anticipating something bad will happen. Which doesn't make any sense because to be honest, nothing bad is going on. I am happy. I have a healthy two year old… Continue reading Something’s Off
Feeling Good
A few weeks ago my mother and I had a conversation about life. She has been having speed bump after speed bump detouring her wanted path and had the well known blues that everyone has when confronted with the same issues. I proceeded to tell her how Karma (my chosen word for God) is watching… Continue reading Feeling Good
The New Year
As you can tell from my previous post, I have already started on listing my books of the year. This year, I'm going to do something a bit different. I'm a HUGE bibliophile. It's very difficult for me to enter a bookstore and leave with nothing. Because of that fact, it is also difficult for… Continue reading The New Year
Feeling Good With Myself
In about a week, my husband will be on his final deployment. It will be another short one and I'm happy about that, but boy does it suck. However, despite the sad feelings that always comes with saying "goodbye for now" to a loved one, I'm actually feeling pretty good with myself. Last deployment was… Continue reading Feeling Good With Myself
Slowly, but Surely
As I'm sure some of you have experienced or guessed, the reward system to writing isn't for everyone. And I happen to be one of those people. Since my reward system post, I haven't written much. I have, however, finally finished my third chapter. It doesn't seem much, but this draft is a lot better… Continue reading Slowly, but Surely
