Post-NaNoWriMo Update
Haha, I’m only 10 days late, right? No, but seriously, November was as enriching a month as I’ve had in, well, probably a year (since last year’s NaNo). I wrote, I laughed, I met some amazing writers in my area, and I had a ton of fun. But I didn’t hit 50K this year. […]

30 Days and Nights of Literary Abandon
I never really planned to make NaNoWriMo a yearly thing. And I certainly never thought that I would eventually become a Municipal Liaison (ML) for my region!

I took it into a local repair shop, and $180 later, my baby […]

The Persistence of Memory
Of all things, these thoughts are attributable to Jem and the Holograms. I’m a pretty big fan of the show – it’s big, bold, fun, and actually more sophisticated for the era it was produced than most people give it credit for (you can thank uber-writer Christy Marx for that!) The dolls being produced by […]
