Last June, I wrote a post about how grief is weird. I talked about how it's an ongoing process and it doesn't ever really go away. It's a natural part of life and it's ok to feel grief when someone is gone. This weekend reminded me that it is also complicated. When a public figure … Continue reading Grief

Prompt 361 – Personal Pizza
If you were going to design a pizza after yourself, what would be on it and what would each of those ingredients represent? Man, I love pizza. It’s a perfect meal. Carbs, veggies, protein, fat. There’s no bad time to eat it. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, 1am after leaving the bar. That was my favorite pizza. … Continue reading Prompt 361 – Personal Pizza
So Many WIPs, So Little Time
Greetings, denizens of the blogosphere. It's ya girl, back for another week of prompts! It's funny, week in and week out we spend our days stitching words together and trying to tell our stories and stay sane. The prompts keep me limber, but sometimes they spark new worlds that I want to explore despite already … Continue reading So Many WIPs, So Little Time
Prompt 360 – Charitable Giving
How do you feel about wealthy people that don’t give back? I’m pretty firmly in the “there are no good billionaires” camp and borderline “eat the rich” camp, even if they do “give back.” The mere concept of giving back is preposterous to me. That a person could have amassed so much wealth as to … Continue reading Prompt 360 – Charitable Giving
Prompt 358-My TV Love Life
What TV series, cartoon or movie could depict your dating or love life? I swear I was going to work through this prompt last night. I got distracted thinking there was another prompt just like it fairly recently though, and went down a rabbit hole of my old prompts. There is some good stuff on … Continue reading Prompt 358-My TV Love Life
Return to Normalcy?
Salutations! Feels like it's been a year since I had a normal update post. And I guess technically it's still not a normal post because I'm updating on Monday instead of Sunday. The last quarter of 2019 was really insane, huh? The first two weeks of 2020 have been no walk in the park either. … Continue reading Return to Normalcy?
State of the Closet: 2020
*rolls backwards into the blog on rollerblades a week late with Starbucks and crazy sunglasses* What is up my fellow writing kids? Happy New Year! Congrats! We survived another trip around the ball of space fire that keeps us alive! *confetti explosion* It has been a weird couple of weeks for me. I have not … Continue reading State of the Closet: 2020
Twitter and the #WritingCommunity
This is a post I've been thinking about writing off and on for the better part of a month, but every time I sit down to write it, I can't make up my mind which direction I want to take it. Each time I've let my mind wander off with it, it's taken a different … Continue reading Twitter and the #WritingCommunity
2019 Reading List
Hey there! Another night, another post. This one will be a bit different. As writers, we tend to spend a lot of time in our own worlds, but it's necessary to step out of them once in a while and refill the well. I do not read nearly as much or as often as I … Continue reading 2019 Reading List
