NaNoToons!

Yay, I’m so excited! NaNoToons is back! I just had to do a quick share, since they are one of my favorite parts of NaNoWriMo! https://wp.me/p2NFKH-sW

So, quite a bit has happened since I last wrote. I can’t believe it has been almost a month. But – I am in a new job! I accepted a position as an analyst at the E-ISAC, which stands for Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center. I’ve been here three days and am learning allContinueContinue reading “Updates”

Short Story Breaks

It’s like they were reading my heart when they posted this. You have been working at the literary coalface for months. Your second draft has taken far longer than you expected. At times working on your second draft has felt more like going to war than embarking on a wonderful journey of creative discovery. YouContinueContinue reading “Short Story Breaks”

Life Update, Friends, and NaNo!

I finished my first ever Master’s class almost a week ago and it has been almost too busy this week to even realize it – yet, when I think about doing this week and adding studies in, I shudder. We are taking a break until January – one, holidays and two, apparently we weren’t quiteContinueContinue reading “Life Update, Friends, and NaNo!”

A Morning Ride

Daniel and I get up anytime between 5:45 AM and 7:00 AM, depending on when we go to bed and how motivated we feel when we get up. We do actually end up getting up between 5:45 and 6:15 more often than not, which allows us to work out for half an hour and spendContinueContinue reading “A Morning Ride”

Life of a Masters Student

I am a little afraid to look at how long it has been since I have posted anything. But I have an excellent excuse. My husband and I just started a masters program! I won’t spend too long on this, since all my friends have already heard my numerous complaints, but it has essentially suckedContinueContinue reading “Life of a Masters Student”

Fairytales and Reality

We were supposed to be booked solid last week between me getting back from Cleveland and a variety of engagements throughout the week, but somehow or another, we managed to get two evenings (mostly) free. It was delightful. Last Tuesday we biked to the library. Daniel doesn’t quite understand the concept of just browsing allContinueContinue reading “Fairytales and Reality”

Weariness and Breaking the Rules

It has been long couple months of travel. From May 25 to date, I have traveled to Oklahoma, Florida, Kansas, New York, Minnesota, and Cleveland and have another trip to Orlando scheduled in 12 days. Needless to say, I am beginning to feel a little exhausted. Today, especially, having worked 23 hours in the last twoContinueContinue reading “Weariness and Breaking the Rules”

After God’s Own Heart

“And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.” Acts 13:22 I am reading in both 1 Samuel andContinueContinue reading “After God’s Own Heart”

Totally random writing

I know I don’t write as often as I have been recently, but I have been busy with editing my book, which I FINALLY titled God’s Masterpiece. I am still not sure I like it, but it is better than not having a title. I have sent it off to about five people to readContinueContinue reading “Totally random writing”
