Always a New Project and Taking Some Time
I always find a way to add stuff to my plate instead of focusing on one thing at a time like I probably should. I tend to find projects that will distract me from the real things I need to be doing. This time, however, the project found me! My employer/coworker decided during one of…

Initial Product Samples
I’m trying to be intentional about acting on my vision and not just visualizing, so I ordered some t-shirt samples and a tote bag from Vistaprint. First up, the “There’s No Revenge Body” tank. It’s a quote from one of my essays in Discovering My Outside Voice. This tank is not soft like I prefer,…

Unhiding and Digging In
I have a habit of keeping to the background in life. I like to be behind the scenes. I’m also good at being non-committal. When I have a job, I do good work, but I never let myself commit to the place or the people. I keep my interest surface-level because I know well how…

Constantly Changing Book 2 | Writing Journal
So, you know how I was working on a novel as my second book? Well, that is no longer the case [shrugs shoulders]. I decided that I don’t care about Kanoa’s story anymore (harsh, I know). Quite honestly, his story is the one that was tripping me up the most. I was working with two…

What’s New?
Has my YouTube journey come to an end so quickly? I don’t want it to end yet, but the free video editor I liked stopped working and I’ve since downloaded, tested, and uninstalled five others (one of them froze my laptop). I don’t have a Mac, so iMovie isn’t an option, and the default Windows…

May Writing Goals

I’ve recently started working with my cousin and (separately) her web designer. I’m working part time for both of them (9a-1p and 1p-5p, respectively), but I don’t work…

Be Back Soon!
It’s moving time! I was really trying to get notes on Such a Fun Age done for this week, but there’s been a lot of craziness with my parents’ house, and now it’s time to pack and get ready for Sunday’s move. I will be back in a couple weeks. Until then… Happy Reading! ♥

Home Office Inspo
We’re supposed to be moving in two weeks. Went to the house Sunday and the island is TWENTY INCHES closer to the door than in the model. Somebody screwed up and they have to fix it (probably means removing tile, tearing the island down, then rebuilding it, but I’m no contractor so I don’t really…

February Thoughts
Now that my February break has come to an end, I figured I would update you on how it went. Firstly, I feel absolutely refreshed! So much so that over this past weekend I was really excited to reconnect with my people on socials today and get moving forward with my new work goals. And…

Hello 2022
Well, Happy New Year! It’s been a few weeks since we’ve been here. I hope you enjoyed the holidays and are doing well. My holidays were fairly low key and restful and now I’m ready for some new things. I’ve got some pretty big goals for the next few months, and one of them is…
