Okay, so this is a topic we’ve touched on before, and unless you’re really new here, you already know that I am the Pantsiest Panster Who Ever Pantsed™. Since my process hasn’t really changed, and in an attempt not to rehash previous posts, I thought I’d lay out my process with my latest release, Rewritten, Book […]
Autumn, in Michigan, is stunningly gorgeous. And it’s my favorite season. Though, there are days that I’m not sure why, since every year, it actively attempts to murder me. (All photos taken by me.) Autumn roses in my mom’s garden. Changing leaves. Be sure to check out the other bloggers’ photos of autumn where they live. […]
This month’s flash fiction song is one I’d never heard before this challenge. It’s called “Call Me Crazy” by Travis Collins. The video is here and the lyrics are here if you’d like to give a listen/read. Content warning: some violence and allusions to abuse. The dirt was clay. She fucking hated digging into clay. […]
Prompt: While cleaning the attic, he/she finds a box of glass balls with names on them. One drops and as it shatters, a person appears. Fuck my life. Emily looked around at the mountains of boxes, trunks and bags in the attic. This was not how she’d envisioned her mid-term break. When she’d agreed to stay […]
As usual, these aren’t in any discernable order–I’m just writing them as they occur to me. 10.) Friends to Lovers – I love a good Friends to Lovers romance. All that angst and uncertainty and fear about screwing up a perfectly good friendship? Loooooooovvvvvveeeeeee. Then the awkward morning afters and the inability to deal with the […]
I’ve decided to do something I don’t do often, and that’s continue an existing flash fic story, but I think this photo prompt will do nicely. I’m hoping that you’ll be able just pick up here and read if you haven’t read the others. But, just in case, here are parts one, two, and three. […]
It’s that time of the month, again–time to see what I accomplished, and what I didn’t. Okay, so last month, I said I’d: Release Rewritten (Yep!) Finish all my scheduled blog posts (Yep) Continue writing daily (Mostly) Finish building the websites (Two out of three…) Make progress on some re-releases I’ll be putting out (Nope!) Complete the assigned audio preps (Yep) […]
This year has been a bit of a suckfest writing-wise–mostly because of constant, unrelenting stress and anxiety–both personal and environmental. And the constant, unrelenting stress led to depression and more stress and anxiety over being depressed and unable to write. (Hello, vicious circle. I see you there. Now, move the fuck along.) However, I’ve been […]
Prompt: They say I’m a traitor. Maybe I am. All I know is that I did what I had to do. “Hi, I’m Roxanne,” I said when she answered the door. “We spoke on the phone earlier.” “I’m Alicia.” We shook hands, and warily, she invited me inside, leading me to her dining room […]
I pulled the giant handknit sweater over my head. It was way too big for me, but I didn’t care. It was warm and cozy and something about it made me feel safe. It wasn’t even my sweater. My mom had knitted it for my brother, Kevin–hence the giant-ness–but he’d left it at my apartment […]
