This week I fulfilled a life long dream. (Gotten a book published? Found a portal to Middle Earth? No.) I broke into my very own house. *cue Mission Impossible theme* My sister and I went to see Jurassic Park at a drive-in this week (DINOSAURS). IT WAS GREAT. We sat in the back of my … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 20
Writing Like a Freight Train (I might kinda recommend it)
This is kinda of a long story so I'll try to sum up as nicely as possible. *ahem* A while back I had the idea to write a novel in a style I called "stream, of consciousness" or "brain dumping "(I know I know. That is basically pantsing but just bear with me alright). That … Continue reading Writing Like a Freight Train (I might kinda recommend it)

April Wrap Up: Wait….did April even happen???

Go do yourself a favor and listen to the Mandalorian soundtrack on Spotify. Right now. I watched Star Trek: the Motion Picture this week which I haven't watched in YEARS. My sister had never seen it before and....I don't think she was that impressed (honestly, it was a looooooot sloooooooower than I remembered it being.) … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 11

No Plot Twist is Better Than a Bad Plot Twist
No plot twist is better than a bad plot twist. Plot twists aren't just there for thrills. That's what explosions are for. Plot twists should make you gasp and jump off the couch and impact the story DRAMATICALLY. So I just got to get these things off my chest....

March Wrap Up: I don’t remember what happened.
What began as a literary novel about a young writer finding her way in the world, trying to balance her two passions of writing and dance, ended up as an apocalyptic novel where every chapter the situation slowly deteriorates until finally it's mass panic when the zombies are accidentally released. This is one of those … Continue reading March Wrap Up: I don’t remember what happened.

*creaks open the door to my bunker* "Is it over yet guys?" *man in a hazmat suit and disinfectant comes running at me* *ducks back down* Besides the Attack of the Great Spider (please put out a notice that Shelob is NOT welcome in my bathroom), it's been fairly smooth sailing around these parts. I … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 8
