There is no way that I will be able to make it to 50k before tomorrow. lol Oh well, the one thing I do know is that I will… Continue reading I Am Lucky

Aloha and Composition Notebooks
Sorry for not updating lately. Truly, I am. I have been writing like a madwoman, playing mommy to a now three month old, and vacationing in the beautiful state Hawaii. Right now, I am way behind on my word goal for the first Camp NaNoWriMo. It started when I was sick last week and really… Continue reading Aloha and Composition Notebooks
Camp NaNoWriMo
Yep, that's right, I am going to be a Camp NaNoWriMo participant for both months of 2012. That is June and August. For June, I will be writing the first book in a young adult paranormal trilogy I've been thinking about writing for a while now. I already have the plans. All I need is… Continue reading Camp NaNoWriMo

My Monthly Book
In a previous blog I mentioned that I LOVE Victorian literature and I was inspired to write like the Victorian author. I said before that I will write a chapter a month and post it online. This way, people can read my fiction and I can write. I've come to the realization that it's readers… Continue reading My Monthly Book
A Day in the Life of a Mom

I am less stressful, less lazy, and less depressed. I can't afford to go in a rut. It's a great feeling… Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Mom
My Writing
As I wrote earlier, I have an account on Figment.com and have started posting some stories. Most of them are basic tidbits and not necessarily full on short stories, but I am almost done with a story that is going on the site. I find this to be a great way to exercise my creativity… Continue reading My Writing
Figment
So, I have started an account on Figment.com to better my writing and horizons. It looks like a pretty nifty place and it doesn't hurt to have my fiction out in the open. At least not the one's I plan on getting published just yet. My book isn't going to be featured there, but I… Continue reading Figment
A Realization
You see it all the time in movies featuring authors. They are idealistic. They talk to themselves, sometimes narrating the obvious, but above all they are eccentric. What is it with movies featuring authors like this? Whatever their reason, I find this to be the truth. I love reading blogs from authors. They give you… Continue reading A Realization
Reading the Victorian Novel
I am either seriously a glutton for punishment or extremely cocky. I had decided early on that the next book I'd read is a Victorian novel. Whereas I am able to read a single book in a week at most, it is the Victorian novel or classic that is always able to kick my ass.… Continue reading Reading the Victorian Novel
