It has begun! Camp NaNoWriMo begins! I am working on my new novel, We Witches Three, with a goal of 20,000. I have not entered in all my data for last month for my various blogs and such so I won't be sharing total word count for June until tomorrow. I am off to great …

A Letter to George RR Martin
To George RR Martin, I just watched the season finale of Game of Thrones. I am in awe, and in love, and possibly hate you with a tiny piece of my heart. I am everything that a fan of such a fandom can be. You have created this world, this amazing place, and you have …
Writing Prompt Wednesday
So, I am going to try to start doing a Writing Prompt post every Wednesday. Wish me luck. This week's prompt: We all have trouble writing villains. The one thing I have heard authors say the most often, and readers, about their favorite villains, or how they write them is that they must understand their …
Writing – Keeping up with goals
Hello guys! I think I was a bit exhausted after the A-Z challenge. I've barely blogged this month, so sorry about that. I shall now go back to at least once a week. Also, I should have about five book reviews to post soon. I'd really like feedback: What would you like to see on …
Writing: When To Know Yourself
For all of us, word count goals are important. For writers who have deadlines, they mean something different. To a struggling writer, trying to get back to writing everyday, they mean quite a lot. We all have goals we wish to met, whether it be on a blog, writing a novel, or over several different …
Word Count for the Month of April
Hello everything! So, I'm hoping April showers will bring May Flowers... but for now, it's the last day of April, and I'm looking at my writing totals. I'm ecstatic. I wrote 14,348 words this month. I have no idea when the last time I wrote that much was. Probably in undergrad with all my papers. …
Boom, Boom, Boom
Yesterday was a bad day. The thing is, it was a bad day following one excellent weekend. My mom finally came down from VA for our Christmas (snow has delayed it quite a bit), and then she was snowed in here. I wound up getting to spend two extra days with her, which was utterly …
Planning For Camp Nano
Hello everyone! Time just marches on by does it not? I am happy to say that I have met my writing goal every day this month. It hasn't always been on my novel. A few days it was for book reviews. I wrote an article one day and didn't even count those words. So I …
Writing Update
So, per an idea from Amanda McCormick, I decided to lower my daily writing goal to 250 words a day. With my crazy insane life, I have more motivation to spend 10 minutes writing, than stressing over getting 1000 words. And I have to say, it seems to be working. I have written every day …
Attack by Fairy: Behind on Nano
Hello guys, I have been mostly absent for the past week, and for that I apologize. However, last Monday my mother-in-law passed away and it has been a tough week. I wrote 2022 words for Nano last week. To say I am behind is an understatement but I decided not pushing myself last week was …
