[A Week Of] Embracing the New Year

The first week kind of just trickled in, but hello! I'm here, in 2019, and I'm working my buns to the burning brisket! So far in the first week, I've managed to send my novel "Gravekeeper" off to the editor, received it, and now it's prepping to go out into the world, but I'm not [...]

[Break-time] Week Three

I've had a few firsts this week, going right into start of it. I got to attend my first public book release (not for myself), and one of my older cousins is currently visiting. It's the first time I've seen him in six years, and boy, does it show. I'm apparently taller. A lot of [...]

[Break-time] Week Two

This week was very fruitful for the gamer in me. Because it was the week that the Game Awards were underway, the week that Super Smash Bros Ultimate was released, and we also got new footage for the Kingdom Hearts 3 opening today! It. Is. Hype. First, I'm gonna talk about the Game Awards. Every [...]

[Break-time] Week One

  You know, sometimes a break is supposed to be fulfilling and freeing. But I'm not the best at taking them. I think that unwinding can come in many forms.

We're back, back again, with a couple of pages to Witch-Like Wonders! These two would be wrapping up the intro pages, and with those done, I can officially get started on the first full chapter, which will be full of drabbles and fun spells, magic, mystics, and even some Edna-like charm! ....Yes, Edna. The cute [...]

[A Week of] Balancing a Drained Life

November is always a stressful month for me. I always find myself with an insane amount of projects no matter how much I try to clear my plate. It always seems to be the biggest burden for me, what with the holidays right down the block and my new full-time job snagging me from a [...]

[Ad-Vices] The Four-Star Writer

Anyone that writes or creates knows that putting yourself out there as one such creator knows that the price to pay is criticism. As an author, I'm certainly no exception to that virtue, and in the two years that I've been published, I have to say, some days, the toll is pretty heavy. So heavy [...]
