So my friend has been designing some covers, and I’m having a hard time deciding on some! It’s kind of crazy to be put in this position right now. When I started writing this book six years ago, the last thing I thought I would ever have to worry about was deciding on a cover […]
The next person who tells me writing a book/novel/anything isn’t emotionally exhausting is going to get punched in the face. Seriously. You’d think people would recall their high school and college years when writing a five page double spaced essay was like the end of the world. Now, I tell people I wrote a book. […]
Dang, I can’t believe a year ago today I was sitting in the same spot, wondering what I should make my first ever post about. Well, not exactly the same place. This last year has been out of control awesome, but also pretty out of control crappy. When I started last year, I was leery […]
Hello, fellow bloggers! I have taken a small break from the blogging world…mostly because I sprained my neck and I can’t sit for more than 15 minutes at a time and the writing time I get I spend on my book. (Which I finished!!!) Anyway, I’m doing a bit of a different blog post today, […]
I’m close…I’m close…I’m oh so very very very close to finishing this (hopefully final) draft of my novel, Immortality Awaits. Here’s a little breakdown on the writing process, for those of you who have asked me (A.K.A., my bffs and my parents.) I started writing it in the end of July/beginning of August in 2007. […]
If you follow me at all, you know I’ve done a couple of collaboration pieces with Jeff from Content Unrelated (namely The Stupid Question and Server Problems: Happy Hour and Impatience). He’s super funny, and we decided to switch some guest posts again! So here’s a nice little post from him, and if you think […]
It is pretty widely known amongst my friends that I have the most eclectic bunch of music you will find on my computer. When people ask, “What kind of music do you listen to?” I’m one of the rare breeds who actually means it when they say, “Everything.” I’ve been on a big bout of writing […]
Much like what I was saying last week about loving your own work before anyone else does, another underestimated task of writing your novel is just that — writing it. We, as human beings, have a natural tendency to be our own worst critics. When you’re a writer (and I’ll assume any form of artistry would […]
This post is exciting to me for a couple of reasons. It’s my 100th post. I’m coming off of a month-long dose of writer’s block. I’m celebrating 11 months on the blogosphere. Holy wow! I never thought I would be 100 posts deep. Generally, any time I’ve made an attempt to write a blog or […]
