I’m not sure is this is other bloggers in general or the Wednesday Random bloggers, so I’m going with the Wednesday Random bloggers since they’re some of my very best friends. I’m not using descriptors like kind or caringĀ or supportive or any of those things, because if they weren’t, they wouldn’t be my friends. š […]
So…I admit, while I might be a rule breaker about some things, there are a bunch of writing rules I try not to break–mostly because I don’t enjoy seeing them in other people’s writing, so I don’t want it in my own. 1.) Info dumps. Giant piles of background story have no place in […]
This week, the Wednesday Random Bloggers are blogging about their perfect weekend. My perfect weekend is quiet. Really quiet. I like to wake up at about 8 on Saturday. Ā That’s the perfect time because no one else in this house will be up for hours. (Bonus if it’s raining and I can have the windows […]
Let’s see…things that made me smile during the past week. 1.) This conversation with Jenny Trout: Me: What the hell are you doing with my toes? Jenny: Leave me alone. I’m carsick! I have to make my own fun! (Technically, this happened a smidge longer than a week ago, but I remembered it when […]
I followed her through the sun-dappled field. Insects whirred all around us as the late August sun beat down. The leaves barely moved.

WIP: Darkling Night, pissed off faeries WIP: Untitled, music composition, lost chances Characters: Devon, Jonah, Mellie, Fake-Mellie, Thorn Characters: Morgan, James, Tris, Rory, Setting: high school, woods, winter, inbetween Setting: […]
I tend to be one of those people who’s either super chill and zen or stressed to the gills – so much so that I stress out everyone in a twenty-seven mile radius. There doesn’t seem to be any middle ground. So, if you happen to be in a twenty-seven mile radius of me when […]
It time for another favorite things post – this month it’s quotes. I adore quotes. Seriously love them. These are just a few of my favorites that are frequently used in daily life – some for writing, some for not-writing. “In this parade of stupid and dumb, I am the one twirling the flaming […]
Holding the shoebox full of letters, I walked barefoot through the dew-damp grass toward the fire pit where a blaze already crackled and sat in one of the lawn chairs near the circle of stones. “Hey, Hannah…you here? It’s me.” I pulled the lid off the shoebox and tossed it into the flames, […]
