I have gotten little done for NaNo, though I have every intention of catching up at some point. It’s always hard when you have visitors. I once again don’t like what’s happening in my story, but rather than rewrite it, I’ve decided to make my character a little older and see if that helps fixContinueContinue reading “NaNo (10,280) and Life”

Redeeming the Time Part 2: The Ideal Worker
The book I mentioned in my last post, Overwhelmed, had some great points. I skipped a lot of the book because it seemed to overly focus on how stereotypes between men and women placed more pressure on women than men, and I wasn’t looking for an equality speech (can’t we women at some point takeContinueContinue reading “Redeeming the Time Part 2: The Ideal Worker”
Up Next: Editing Challenge!
I am supposed to be working right now, but apparently after working 9-10 hour days all week to make up for being sick last week, and being extremely productive while I was at it, my brain is a little tired now. No, it has nothing to do with being up until 12:30 last night. NothingContinueContinue reading “Up Next: Editing Challenge!”
Rushing Through Life
So we went on a week-long cruise the week of February 18th. It was a very fun, very busy vacation what with islands, snorkeling, an excursion that was cancelled and replaced by a different one, and in general staying up until 2 AM every night playing games with my brother and sister-in-law. But for onceContinueContinue reading “Rushing Through Life”
Three Life Facts . . .
. . . that are true for me right now. I got sick my first week at a new job. Like, seriously???? It could only happen to me. Thursday and Friday – sore/swollen throat and lots of congestion. Yesterday – a not very happy cough and today lost my voice as well. Great first impression,ContinueContinue reading “Three Life Facts . . .”
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!”
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”
Writing, Life, and Carrying On
I’ve been working hard on my book and am up to 46,000 words. It is amazing to me how much easier it is to write when you don’t care about being cheesy and you don’t have to do research for historical bits. The miracle of a sappy romance set in modern America. But really, I amContinueContinue reading “Writing, Life, and Carrying On”
Character Development and Editing Woes
If you follow my blogger account (you know, that public facing one that technically friends and family can find if they look that I often wonder why I started at all?) then you already know what I am working on. But just in case you don’t, the title of this post will tell you. BecauseContinueContinue reading “Character Development and Editing Woes”
The Secret to Joy
I feel like I write these type of posts a lot, so if you still read them, either I am not alone in the world of figuring oneself out or you are really bored. All of you who have been around awhile or read previous posts know that I am the type to constantly pushContinueContinue reading “The Secret to Joy”
