The 2018 Reboot | Week 8 Check-In
The past seven days have been… less than ideal. I’m still dealing with this stupid cold (the worst of it seems to be hitting me right about now), and construction on my building, and… yeah. But! The reboot continues, even if it’s a little slower than I’d like at the moment. (If you’re just joining…

Sketchbook #37
It’s been two months since I did a general update on how all my creative projects are going, so I’ve got a lot of ground to cover today. And since this day is already shaping up to be kind of awful (they’re rebuilding the balcony below mine, which means noisy generators and sawing through concrete,…

NaNoWriMo 2018 Diary | Prep Week 4
There’s a little less than a week left before NaNo officially starts, and I’m feeling really good about my story. If you’re just tuning in, I’m rebelling this year. I’m still aiming for 50,000 words during November, and I’m not counting the words I write before then (obviously), but this year it was much more…

The 2018 Reboot | Week 7 Check-In
This week, I’ve been thinking about my big goals. Not the big things I’m trying to accomplish right now, or even my one-year goals (though there has been some of that), but the big goals. The things that stretch out over five or ten years. And I’m starting to realize that I don’t really know…

The last two weeks went by in a flash, but they’ve been really good. I’ve been: wishing | wondering | realizing | feeling | trying | looking | realizing | finding | loving | drinking

The 2018 Reboot | Week 6 Check-In
I’ve been kind of obsessed with todo lists this week. I know. Try to contain your excitement. Really, though, it’s a bit of a dilemma for me. For a long time, my go-to bio on social media included the phrase ‘list-maker,’ right after ‘writer’ and ‘photographer.’ I love a good todo list. But I have…

NaNoWriMo 2018 Diary | Prep Week 2
Over the past few days, “almost definitely” has turned into “definitely” – I’m going to be working on Violet Lane this November. I’m not going to wait until the first of the month to start writing, but I am going to aim for 50,000 words during NaNo itself. My prepwork is moving along nicely again.…

The 2018 Reboot | Week 5 Check-In
It’s been a while since I checked in on this little project of mine (here’s the explanation for my absence, if you missed it), but I’m happy to say that it’s only the check-ins that I’ve missed. I haven’t been neglecting the reboot itself, and I’m actually kind of impressed with the progress I’ve made…
