I dedicate this perfect post from BlondeWriteMore to my husband Daniel and entreat my friend who is doing this with me to print it out for her husband as well. :p https://wp.me/p4yGBR-lbB
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
Updates
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 allContinue 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. YouContinue 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 quiteContinue 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 spendContinue 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 suckedContinue 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 allContinue 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 twoContinue 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 andContinue reading "After God’s Own Heart"
