Week 4 of my write 10k words in a week challenge is next to non existent as I'm recovering from dental surgery that I had on Monday, after a very busy but very fun family event over the weekend. So why was my self induced challenge still a success for me?

It's finally starting to feel like autumn as it's 67 °F right now. But just because autumn is in St. Louis we can never be really sure if it's here to stay or if tomorrow summer will decide to join us again. Who knows next week it could be winter's time to visit. I have been getting better about having a routine that isn't really at risk of burning me out and still feel like I'm being kinda productive. 100% depends on the day of the week though, I have given Wednesdays to my

I am not in favor of someone generating AI and then claiming it's their own original work,

Pumpkin spice lattes, apples, wheat stalks, maple leaves, college football, bonfires, the lower frequency of crickets, and an all around more woodsy feel for me overall.

With the unintentional symbiotical I took over the summer to look for a new full time job and focus on my writing, one would think that I am refreshed and motivated to "get back at it" or "hit the ground running" or even dare I say "relax." None of that happened.

As with NaNoWriMo before it, I have set out to complete at least 50k in 30 days. This did not happen for me for various reasons but the number one reason being....life.

I'm not sure if the second part is true but it is defiantly an end of an era.

Why is everyone jumping ship? And are they really or does it just seem like so?

However some just don't just have that same 'wow' that the original challenge had......Enter The Rough Draft Challenge...

2025 is here and I hope that you are as excited as I am about the new energy and fresh start magic that the New Year season seems to bring.

I'm sure that most of us in the indie author world have heard what the official Nation Novel Writing Month (NNWM) has been up to lately

I know that I should be talking about Winter Bound and the upcoming release date on September 24th, (41 days at the time of this post), BUT

So after not being able to pick a topic that I could do right now this will just be little random tid bits of the week.

Would anyone be interested in what I have to say? What I have to write? What I think on social media? On the surface it's disheartening but
