To Write or Not to Write

December 2, 2009

I gave my hand at NaNoWriMo. Again. But I forgot to plan it out. And failed after 8,915 words and then pushed delete. I hated it all. Each word. I had no idea where I was going with it. I resented it, and just deleted the entire thing. Then I remembered that my dear friend [...]

Can’t Nobody Bring Me Down

November 22, 2009

I may have been down yesterday, but I am not down for the count. After a refreshing day up with the in-laws, and after getting lots of advice from many freaders and family friends, I’m still pursuing plan A, but I’m also enacting plan B.

Sans this past weekend, I’ve been holding down the fort in DC while Hubs started his new job up in Stamford. This being apart thing and living on my own? I admire Military wives and widows because I have no idea how they do it. This of course has left me with the sole responsibility [...]

Over a happy hour tonight, that we probably shouldn’t have gone out to, Fiance and I decided to make getting out of DC our top priority. Neither of us is really happy here, we can’t afford to move in the area, yet, we’ve rapidly outgrown our current space and career wise? I for one, don’t [...]

On Writing

June 10, 2009

I started writing yesterday. Like, really writing. Writing with a goal writing. All my life, since a friend of mine and I sat every night working on a 40 page novel on my 1993 Packard Bell using Windows 3.1 (Microsoft Works!) writing a random novella using the people we knew as characters who all got [...]

Getting Somewhere

May 27, 2009

For the past two months I’ve felt that I’m spinning my wheels. With everything – not getting any where career wise, wedding planning wise, and being in general lazy. Well, this weekend I had a slue of breakthroughs. It was nice being in Vermont, visiting family, getting drunk like I was 21 again with a [...]

My story…
