It is officially NaNoWriMo! So,to celebrate it, I am sharing the November 1st NaNoToons – because they are the best. And, although I was up past midnight last night, no I did not start writing. But I don’t feel guilty. You know why? Because Daniel is bringing me to a wine/coffee bar tonight specifically toContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Begins!”

NaNo, Photos, and Books
One more day to NaNoWriMo!!! Am I scared, you ask? Why yes, yes I am. Terrified that I am going to sit in front of my keyboard and have absolutely nothing to say. But I’ve won NaNo twice in a row now, and I am determined to make it a third! And if there isContinueContinue reading “NaNo, Photos, and Books”
Emotional Musings (or really, just whining)
First and foremost, for an ever-so-brief update about Ethrill, you can see Once Upon a Story. Yes, I am purposefully directing you there to try and increase foot (view?) traffic in my attempt to get serious about online presence. 😛 It’s been an interesting week – or two. I am back at work. I can’t rememberContinueContinue reading “Emotional Musings (or really, just whining)”
Writing and Editing Books
I just shared a post from one of my favorite bloggers: BlondeWriteMore – if you are a fellow writer, you should check it out! I was just thinking yesterday about how to connect more with my main character in my book Picture of the Past, and I think this will be very helpful as IContinueContinue reading “Writing and Editing Books”
Hats and Printers
So, I’ve already told all my friends, and my mom, and Facebook about this, so I won’t spend too much time on it – but I wore a hat to church today! Technically called a fascinator these days, because you know, they feel like they have to sell it under another name to actually sell itContinueContinue reading “Hats and Printers”
Rant: Training a Husband
So, I have the day off today, for which I am every so grateful. It was pretty much worth the hours upon hours of work for the Full-Scale Exercise my team did last week if it resulted in a couple days off without using PTO. And I fully intend to use today to write forContinueContinue reading “Rant: Training a Husband”
The Need for Silence
First things first – head over to my other blog (http://storyidyls.blogspot.com/) and check out my most recent post on fear of failure! Because you all know that is my favorite subject, so I couldn’t resist posting about it on there too and am currently working hard not to regret it. Second things second: I loveContinueContinue reading “The Need for Silence”
Of Dances and Writing
I know I haven’t posted a real post in awhile. And yes, it means what it usually does – I haven’t been writing since July. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to – I’ve just been insanely busy. I haven’t had a chance to write, read, post, or keep up with friends. This past week,ContinueContinue reading “Of Dances and Writing”
This Chaotic World
I haven’t written in awhile I know – I have been surprisingly busy – or too tired. One or the other. I took a work trip to Phoenix, which was just lovely. The only down side, of course, was that my husband wasn’t with me. Around that time, my progress in CampNaNo began collapsing andContinueContinue reading “This Chaotic World”
Ode to the Ocean
So last weekend we went to the beach with a couple of friends. It is amazing how just some sand, sun, and water can completely change your perspective and mood. I’d been going through a super depressed slump, both due to some personal things and because of the current political environment. Since I do wantContinueContinue reading “Ode to the Ocean”
