I’m sorry; I’ve been so busy being awesome that this blog has once again fallen by the wayside. You know that feeling when things just click and you absolutely know you’re kicking ass? Yeah. That’s been me. Rewind to the final trimester of pregnancy – that time when women are advised to take it easy, […]

Shake It Up!
So it was past time for a little spring summer cleaning of the blog, most of it cosmetic, but you may notice an extra widget in the sidebar. (I might be in avoidance mode, but there is no part of this national healthcare farce I am ok with. Because I can’t be ok with the […]
When Things Don’t Go According To Plan
If you’ve been following along over on Anxiety Ink, you know I tried to do a Thing that didn’t go anywhere near the way I hoped. I set a date and time for a writing workshop on worldbuilding. I reserved the space at the library. A few people told me they would definitely-for-sure be there. […]
My Silence Comes In Waves
When I fall into radio silence for an extended time, you know something’s going on with me. That something could be good or bad, or just many somethings all at once. I haven’t posted here since I found out I’m pregnant. EEEEEE!!!! OMG!!!!!!! (Finally!) I’ve known a solid three months now. It took me ages […]
New Year 2017
Goodbye, 2016. I will not miss you. Last year (I do not have words to say how thrilled I am that 2016 is officially past) was so bad, it was all I saw, much of the time. The negative things. The death toll. The election. Stress. My own mental shutdown. But it had its bright moments. […]
What Is This Year?
I like to assign themes to things like years. And this year has so far shaped up to be my Year of Being Introverted. With so much going on, I’ve been largely in shut down mode. But now things seem to be turning around. A writer-friend came up for a long weekend of awesome, which kicked my ass […]
A Reason For Silence
I take a long, long time to work out the things that upset me. And 2016 has been one hell of a year for upsetting things. It’s taken me weeks to figure out this blog-silence. It wasn’t the traveling – which was great, if exhausting – or the fact I had a couple roles in […]
Well…
I did it. Finally. Still not entirely convinced it’s a good thing, but I am now on Twitter. You may have noticed the handy extra widget in the sidebar. Like my focus needed any more distractions. And in related news, I have now entered the 21st century. I have a magic phone. (That’s a smartphone, to […]
Here I Go Again
I know, I know. I seem to be making a blog for every new project. (Just be glad every novel and short stories isn’t jumping on the bandwagon!) After The End (you know — that post-apocalyptic web series/film project I mentioned last time) now has a blog: Follow the link to a special rabbit hole! […]
Art Goes Multi-Media
I’ve been informed my last post was…cryptic. Something needed to go up, and the only thing in my head was the new project. And it was so new and big and scary that I couldn’t post about it here. I’ve calmed since then. Just a little. I’m telling this story in a different medium. That’s […]
