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

Poetry Tuesday: Haunted
Haunted Standing near the sill he stayed, wishing for life. Waiting and wondering as whispers pass his ear. Nothing to grasp, no one to speak, never a moment of respite He stays quietly, his heart beating, but no real feeling. Alone, only his austere memories to accompany the long days. Wooden floors creak with… Continue reading Poetry Tuesday: Haunted
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.

Not that… Continue reading Taking Time
Reading, Writing, And Bug… A Boring Update

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.

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
