Wrap Up and Check In, May
You know you’re tired and brain-foggy when you spend no less than three minutes looking on your computer for a document YOU HAVEN’T WRITTEN YET. I sat down this afternoon specifically to check on my May progress. Then, I opened my goals folder and wondered WHY MAY WAS MISSING. I then spent those three aforementioned... Continue Reading →
Poetry Challenge, May

Wrap-Up and Check In March
Well hi again! It’s officially the end of the FIRST QUARTER of 2025. Which is … wild, right? I’m not entirely sure how that happened, honestly. It feels like just yesterday we were talking about SETTING goals for the year and now we’re wrapping up the first quarter. Weird how that happens. Anyway, the end... Continue Reading →
A Scene from the Idea Journal
This month one of my goals was to dig into the idea journal and look for inspiration. I'm going to be needing a new work-in-progress here shortly and that's usually where I start. I often reread old ideas, trying to find something that sparks a desire to write more for me. Often, I'll write something... Continue Reading →
