I’ve been dreadfully unhappy for an extended period. I think most of it stems from an awakening that happened as a result of my writing here. It’s brought me so many new opportunities, and I’ve found work that I really enjoy doing. As a result my “day job” (which wasContinue Reading
I know a lot of my writer friends would answer this question differently. The prompt for today asks if I would give up all of my paperbacks for digital. While I know that my electronic device is not exactly safe for the environment, it pains me at work when someoneContinue Reading

I’ve been thinking about buying a writing prompt journal. I do have a lot to write about, however, making the time to do it is becoming a bit of a stretch. Between my day job, my night job, and raising three kids, I barely have time to pee most days,Continue Reading

When I did #NaBloPoMo last year, it was my first time, and I did it in part to see if I could (and would) write every single day. It was a great challenge, and similar to this year, I jumped in with both feet. I prepped WordPress with blanks, figuredContinue Reading
