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?

That's right, I'm bad at the monthly check in so far considering I'm a week late on this update, and have written absolutely zero words this week. Between family events and prepping for winter, and still looking for a day job and college football season, and cooking and researching projects, I've been a bit overwhelmed. However as I was told to relax and rest for a bit by way more people than I would like to admit, which naturally I struggle to do because my nervous system do

Why is it that our writing plans go array? My goal was 10,000 words a week for 4 weeks (month of October) but alas here we are, another 3k-ish short of my goal at 7,828. But does that mean I failed so far? Or does it mean that I just have to rethink about how to approach my goal? Rethinking my goal it is because October is not done yet. So as explained earlier, 10,000 works for 4 weeks in October. This would be about 2,000 words for 5 out of 7 days. However some days are bett

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.

Obviously I have a lot to write about but sometimes there are things that get in the way of my writing time, like the day job, or looking for a new job, or deep cleaning and decluttering my apartment. But here are somethings that I'm trying to do to keep with with what I want to accomplish.

Thats right! I have the next book in the Mississippi River Pack series, staring Nada, Zikie, the Mississippi River pack and a few new characters!

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.

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 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.

It's exactly what this title says, I'll be talking about why I delayed the re-release date for Winter Bound.

You know my post is late, I know my post is late... is it because I have writing non stop in my free time?
