To celebrate the completion of my fantasy manuscript, I went online to ask for possible book-related questions that I could organize into a blog post. I had no idea how or if it would work, so I crossed my fingers and waited. Let’s just say the exercise was less successful than hoped. Kinda hard to…Continue reading The Baker’s Dozen: Just for Fun

Falling Forward – An Update on My Manuscript
Hi, everyone. I finally finished my manuscript. Yup, you read that correctly. I finished my manuscript! Well – technically, I typed “The End” last August, but that first draft was in pretty rough shape, let me tell ya. Fast forward a year, and I’m working on the final edit. It’s a long road to publication…Continue reading Falling Forward – An Update on My Manuscript
Aiming for the Stars and Other Pursuits
She danced on keys of gold as the moon watched from above. Cause she was made to fly – her wings never missing a beat. I thought I’d start this post with the above quick note. I haven’t been doing much writing as of late and I’m beginning to feel the side-effects. Writing connects me…Continue reading Aiming for the Stars and Other Pursuits
Silent Passengers – A Conversation with Becky

So once again, it’ll probably end up being one of my caffeinated rambles – hence the name of this blog. 🙂 First of all, I’d like to share that I’ve begun writing poetry again! Since publishing my book (I couldn’t resist…Continue reading Shaggy Hair and Other Caffeinated News
I Finished My Book!
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. But in my defense, I’ve been really busy. I finally finished my book, and it went live this week! To get to that point meant removing myself from social media and blogging. Instead, I’ve used every spare minute to work on my book, with a short…Continue reading I Finished My Book!
I’m Gonna Be a Writer When I Grow Up – Oh No!
It’s after midnight here in my corner of our little planet. And I decided that instead of sharing a poem this week, I’d share my late night thoughts with you in its stead. It can wait til some other time to be posted – which probably makes it the most patient poem I’ve written so…Continue reading I’m Gonna Be a Writer When I Grow Up – Oh No!
