  • Water off a Ducks Back

    *I wrote this post four years ago, and i look back at how this perspective shifted everything in my life in a positive way* One thing I have learned is this: if you are happy, there will always be someone who resents you for it. Day job has a lot of useless drama that serves…

  • Morning Routines

    I forget who says that developing a good morning routine sets your day off on the right foot. They definitely were right. Even though I struggle to maintain it every morning, it ends up with me being satisfied at the end of my workday. Whatever career you desire, always ask yourself in the morning what…

  • Well well well…

    It has been a minute since we’ve seen each other, isn’t it? While i have not been posting for a few years I HAVE in fact been working in the background on launching my Fantasy Author Career. What have I been doing all this time? Well, loosing a job first of all. Hear me out,…

  • A writers life is like sitting in traffic

    Here we go again. This time I am not making any promises about updating more regularly. I am not trying to be the next blogging sensation that imparts little value to people, so when I feel the need to write about soimething it will be genuine. I am aware this is not the ideal way…

  • Off the Wagon

    So – I fed into my addction, and I went on a bender. It set back everything I had planned and I gave in. That vice’s name is PROCRASTINATION. It does that when I’m happy. I should have known it would use this time to bask, and convince me that all those other things just…

  • Leting it go

    Someone from my past reconnected with an appology. I didnt feel at all how I thought I would based on that situation. If a character in one of my books had been treated so unfairly, there would be an entire chapter about how sweet that moment felt to them, but I learned something. Our characters…

  • The Need Is There

    I know it is there at the back of my head. That voice that is usually screaming at me that I’m not as productive as I should be at the moment… but they are strangley quiet for the first time in a long time. For all I know, my subconcious could have admited that negativ…

  • Back Again

    So the last time I was on here talking about anything, I was in a horrible job and crumbling marriage. I was gaining weight, and under an unhealthy level of stress. I binge watched Marie Kondo on Netflix, and got rid of everything that didn’t ‘Spark Joy’ in my life. So fast forward to a…

  • Secret Pleasures

    Most people dont know this about me, but I am actually (secretly) a massive fan of old-school Disney movies. I know- I know- I’m a goth from the 90’s. I love horror films. You know what else I love? Singing along with Mary Poppins, The Little Mermaid, Lion King, Aladdin, and Cinderella. Those stories help…

  • Fining My New Normal

    With the Corvid-19 Pandemic, I cannot help but see the silver lining. I have been afforded the gift of time. Did I spend all this time actively plugging away at my writing? Absolutley not. At first this concept irked me until I realized that as writers we cannot spend every second actively working on our…
