I came across a writing exercise in my hunt for Fiction Friday ideas, and found one in a book I have (and I have no memory of where I picked it up) but it struck me as interesting. It asked us, as writers, to imagine what our ideal writing space would be--and then to write … Continue reading Ideal Writing Space

So for the first time--I think--in my entire tenure as a NetGalley reviewer, I actually have a feedback ratio above 80%. Woo! (This is where they recommend your ratio to be.) It's not come without some effort, and it should get higher as I continue to review some of the books I have. But oh … Continue reading Don’t Tell Me You Don’t Have Time
I always seem to run into the same problem right about now. I’ve essentially recovered from the chaos and madness of November, had all of the holidays to rest, and now I’m ready to get back on track--not only with stuff like my eating, but also my writing. I want to have a new project, … Continue reading What’s Next?
Remember how I talked about the Editor, and all his nasty tricks we were keeping locked away in November? And then in December, we might let him out, but we were letting that project rest at least for a little while? It's January now. And the editing beast, snarling and slathering, is ready to drip … Continue reading The Beast, Dripping in Red
So I had an idea for this post today, and then realized that I'd already written about my goals for this year, some two weeks ago. ...Oops? So instead I'm going to talk about something similar and see what goes from there. Because one of the most prevalent things I've noticed in my little sphere … Continue reading Keeping Optimistic
I've often gone off and looked at other bloggers, especially around the end of the year, to see what everyone else is doing to wrap up the year. I always get to this point and I never really know what to do or say. The beginning of the year feels like it's been a thousand … Continue reading Top 5 “Books” of 2016
So with the end of the year coming up, (how did that happen) I want to look back at the year and see what I did well and what I'd like to improve on for next year. RECAP GOOOOOO In terms of reading I'm finally much closer to where I'd like to be. I fell … Continue reading Plans for 2017
It's still Friday, right?! ONLY IF I WRITE SUPER FAST Okay, so here's why you didn't have a post earlier. The short answer: I forgot. The longer answer: I've been bordering on really sick for the past several days, and while it was in my head (and on my bujo) to do this post, I only … Continue reading SUPER LATE FICTION FRIDAY
Hey everyone! I'm finally coming back into myself after the catastrophe that was last month, but I wanted to check in and see what we're going to do with the rest of 2016 and going into 2017. So I'm hoping to return to my normal schedule, starting with this Friday (aka tomorrow). I'll talk a … Continue reading New Month, New Goals
...here I am, a week later than intended. Oops? You all know how bad it can get during NaNoWriMo. I suddenly looked at my calendar while I was filling in my bullet journal and went "...oh. Right. Blog posts. Oops." For the first 4 days of November, I was either entirely focused on writing, or … Continue reading True to Form…
