Well, here we are again. We've almost reached the end of another year. And boy did 2022 turn out to be quite a weird, and often shitty, year. I thought 2021 was bad, but things are not getting better. Nope. I'm not sure what's happening to the cosmic order of things, but it fe…
Welcome to my 2022 Goals post. 😁 I don't like making resolutions, but goals are a different story. And I like to post my yearly goals list here so I can see how I did at the end of the year. These are the things I'd like to achieve/continue to do this year: Go for two daily wal…
So, it turns out that after the hellish year that was 2020, we were kidding ourselves when we expected 2021 to be any better. 😒 We're still in the middle of an awful pandemic. Actually, I would dare to say that even though so many of us are now vaccinated (and even boosted), we'…
So, this hellish and bizarre year is winding down. It's been a year that often felt like five. I still can't believe it's ending because it feels like we've made no real progress in the pandemic department. 😣 I've never had more trouble keeping track of days and …
That's right! It's Friday . And this week, I'm happy to say that I completed several writing projects I had on my to-do list. Yay. 😁 These are things I've had on my mental to-be-done list for a while. Things I constantly carried in the back of my mind but, for on…
Welcome to my 2019 Goals edition. As you might (or might not) know, I don't do New Year's resolutions. Personally, those never work for me. Instead, I put together a goals list, which really works for me. Although I like to have a yearly goals list, I also make smal…
See this chunky blue folder? This is my latest project. It's full of my teenage writing. I've been carrying it around with me for years, and until a few weeks ago it sat in the laundry cupboard, forgotten. But when we went through the clutter, I decided to keep it out. …
So, how are you today? As I mentioned the last time I blogged , after my daughter started sorting out her room I was inspired to do the same. So I've had a very busy couple of weeks tackling my own Spring Cleaning Project . It turned out to be a pretty big project that wormed…
Yikes. The weeks are sure moving fast. But at the moment, I don't mind so much because after this week, hubby has a two-week break. Yay. 😊 This also means that my restless mind didn't want to get stuck into a new first draft, or revision. Not until AFTER the leave. …
Hey! I just realised that I skipped posting a little something last week. It wasn't intentional, I just wasn't in the mood because I felt a little meh last Friday. No big deal. Then this week, when I started drafting a new post, the internet decided to stop working. W…
Hey! This week was all about taking the last step towards totally completing a novel adventure I began during NaNoWriMo 2016 . When I had a blast writing a YA horror story featuring some of my most favourite horror tropes. A story I loved telling and then put aside for a while, …
Last week I finished the third draft of the book I'm currently revising. So the next step is to read the draft on my Paperwhite after taking a break from it. Only problem is that I started another Tweak/Add List last weekend. So, first thing on Monday morning I opened the doc and…
Welcome to my 2018 Goals edition. If you've read any of my past blog posts, you already know that I don't do New Year's resolutions. Making resolutions has never worked for me. It's almost like the mention of that word begs to be abandoned. LMAO. Instead, I make goa…
So, another week is almost over. Yikes! And this time I went in with some goals. If you read last week's blog post , then you know that I wanted to tackle a few things this month. I like to break them down into weekly lists because it makes it easier to achieve. :) So, thi…
Yep. This week, hubby went back to work and my daughter went back to school. I can't believe how fast our week off went! :/ Too fast, if you ask me. BTW, what do you think of my new Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (Horror Classics Series 3) mystery figure? I think she's…
