This is your brain on fail. Well, haven’t really “lost my mind”. I’ve just got a lot of stressful stuff going on. As most of you know I live in Japan until April, when I’m moving me and all the crap I’ve accumulated (well, the stuff that matters) back to the States. Until then, I…
EDIT: I have no idea what happened to the formatting in this post. I’ve tried fixing it multiple times now and nothing’s changed. Oh well~ Over at the The Bathroom Monologues, John is encouraging bloggers to write about the best books they read in 2011. Okay! 2011 was the year I kinda-sorta got back into…
All I wanted for Christmas was a Kindle Fire and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I got both! First, obligatory YAAAAY about another Fairy Boy game that I will not be able to finish before I leave for Japan again. Playing so much Zelda is good for my imagination because it makes me want…
She had badass tastes in animals tbqh. I’m going to take a break from talking about Nano today to talk about something else entirely – something pretty important to me that I didn’t even know was important to me until today. As most of you have probably heard by now, acclaimed and groundbreaking science-fiction /…
Day #: 21Words Written Today: 2014Total Words Written: 52,057Total # of Pages: 99 As you can see, I am still writing. I have dedicated the month of November to working on this manuscript so I might as well use it, right? Even if I feel like I’m floundering during some hours I know I want…
Anyone who has known me for oh, more than a few months knows that I’m always coming up with new projects that I want to explore, even if it seems like I’ll never have the time to do them. And most of the time they do kinda fizzle out, whether from a lack of my…
Writing wise, absolutely nothing was accomplished this week. I can blame my day job for that. It was an hour-packed week, with full days and a whole lotta commuting all over the prefecture. My one-day weekend was spent restocking on food, cleaning, and I think a shower is gonna be shoved in there somewhere. Of…
…or, why I’m self-publishing it without even trying to find an agent/publisher to begin with. Ever since declaring last year that I would be self-publishing my debut novel CROSS//Rebirth sometime in the near future (you know, when that whole editing thing is done with) I’ve been thinking more and more about the reasons why I’ve…
In order for this to really work, it will require a lot of participation and a lot of linking. Of course, I think it would be really, really cool to see it happen. The idea is a question: Why do you write? I bet if everyone talked about why they’re a writer, why they write,…
I would read a book with this photo tbh. While recently drawing up my “to do” list of things whilst self-publishing, (you know, things like “Find an editor~”) something that made it’s way towards the bottom was “Get professional photos taken”. Because, well, girl’s gotta promote herself, and the Facebook pics of me holding a…
