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
The Stars’ Favored Son: An Excerpt
This year's NaNo project was (is) a sci-fi, gender-bent retelling of Snow White, with flavors of Treasure Planet thrown in for good measure, complete with an evil stepmother, a wild treasure hunt, and space pirates! It's very much a zero draft and there's still a lot of story to write, but doing some minor edits … Continue reading The Stars’ Favored Son: An Excerpt
Holiday Schedule
Oh, hello! Long time, no post. How've you all been? Didn't burn the place down while I was gone, I see. That's good. What have I been up to these last two weeks? Lotta socializing and shopping and not a lotta writing. Since my post-NaNo recap on the first I think I've written 2k across … Continue reading Holiday Schedule
Introduction to YuYu Hakusho
Alright folks, time to get nerdy up in here. Chapter 1 of my YuYu Hakusho fanfiction, Awakening, is going up tomorrow! So it’s time for a crash course for context! [Note: You don't need the context/background to understand/enjoy the story. It functions well enough as a stand-alone. This is just for those who want more info … Continue reading Introduction to YuYu Hakusho

There are a bunch of different hashtags with prompts of different … Continue reading October Twitter Prompts
Prompt 350-Self Care
What is the best thing you could do for yourself right now? It’s almost poetic that this prompt caps off another set of 50 prompts. Over the course of the blog, I’ve taken a few breaks, several of them at some multiple of 50. I was always planning to take a break again for NaNo, … Continue reading Prompt 350-Self Care
Prompt 348-Love Hate Relationship
Do you have a love/hate relationship with someone or something, if so explain? Writing. Obviously, I love writing, or I wouldn’t do it day after day. I love the simple act of opening a blank Word document and letting the words flow from my brain, through my fingers, onto the screen. I love bringing new … Continue reading Prompt 348-Love Hate Relationship
A Quick Update
Evening folks. I'm having some health issues tonight so I'm not going to write the usual wordy update post. Hoping it's just something I ate and not a harbinger of a lengthy illness and a good night's sleep fixes me right up. Here are the prompts for the week so you can get started. 346. … Continue reading A Quick Update
Prompt 344-Day’s End
What is your favorite way to end the day? “Finally!” Elise exclaimed with a sigh, dropping her purse to the floor at the door and kicking off her heels in the vestibule. The day had dragged forever. Nothing but endless meetings and phone calls all day long and she was pretty sure the project was … Continue reading Prompt 344-Day’s End
