Update #3 + We Need You Questions! (again)

Happy Wednesday, people reading this post (even if you’re not reading it on Wednesday)! Yes, this is another post that’s getting out a wee bit late. Well, if you’re not in Pacific time (which most people I know online aren’t for whatever reason). Here, it’s not that late. (Or at least I don’t think so; […]

Introducing the Characters of Beyond Her Calling

Hello ladies and gents! Now that we’ve actually begun NaNoWriMo,* I decided it was time to actually introduce you to my NaNo novel & my NaNo-prep process. Even though we’ve already begun so technically that’s all over. Just … ignore me tardiness. Pretend it’s two weeks ago. *(I WAS SICK OKAY!?!?) I thought I’d just […]

Why I Do Halloween

[Note: this is an old blog post. The takes in this post may no longer apply to what the author currently believes and/or the information may be outdated. Please take all that is written here with a grain of salt.] *deep breath* Okay. Here we go. I know I’m going to offend a lot of […]

Five Fall Favorites, Day 5: Indie Published

Hello ladies and gents! Welcome to my blog … and to my fifth post in Five Fall Favorites 2017! I’m sure you remember the amazing blog party we did last year, and if you don’t, this invitation will give you the highlights: (By the way, the constant repetitiveness is a little … sad … but […]

A Quick Update from a Flustered Writer

I can see your skepticism when you read the title. You’re giving me the ol’ skeptical eye again. Flustered? you say. Girl. You are sixteen. You need to clillax. The world will take care of itself … NO IT WON’T. THE WORLD NEEDS ME TO MANAGE IT. The world is practically helpless without my guidance. I’m just […]

Writing Plans: Why They Can Be Disastrous

I really hate to admit this, but writing is a form of art. Why do I hate to admit this? Well, I don’t like to think of writing as an art because artists of all sorts tend to get into this attitude of laziness. “It’s art. Art can’t be rushed.” Most of the time, this […]

Two Years and a Day

As of yesterday, I’ve been blogging for two years. And, in the general scheme of things, two years isn’t a long time. However, in the general scheme of blogging … well, as a non-professional blogger, that’s semi-long, right? Right? (Oh, who cares what you think. It feels like a long time to me. Who are […]

Money + Plans for Money + Other Stuff

I was just thinking along, minding my own business, when suddenly, it hit me. I’m going into my last year of school. After I’m finished, I intend to get a job, save money, and take some community college courses for the first year. And … those are honestly my only plans. I mean, I want […]

I Am Sixteen (Goin’ On Seventeen)

Last year I did a post on my birthday which was mostly excited and random and unintelligible. I did some blog tags and then spouted a bunch of random ‘facts.’ However, there was also a ranty section at the bottom where I discussed how my birthday was going awry, how depressed I was, etc. And […]

June Wrapup + Hiatus

Wowza … July already? I know I’ve said this practically every month, but time flies. Time is like the jet plane of flying. I dislike time mightily … I feel like I didn’t do a lot in June, but I did publish two books. So that includes a lot of formatting and sweat and blood […]

TDS and IvIn Blog Tour: Wrap-Up

That’s right … we’ve finally reached the end of the blog tour! Two winners have been chosen (one for USA, one for International) and a name will be drawn from my list of newsletter subscribers for their choice of an ebook.* Before you see who the winners are, I have a few (other) announcements.** *This […]

TDS and IvIn Blog Tour: Day 4

Day 4 has finally arrived, and today I’ve made some slight changes in the way this tour will be running. So, without further ado, I’ll be telling you about them. Because I don’t believe in keeping poor, innocent readers waiting. Vlogs will be every other day instead of every day. I’m sorry, but don’t you […]
