I’ve always been really into making to-do lists. There’s something super satisfying about being able to check off an item as complete. Productivity in motion! I’ve been so obsessed with lists that if I do something – like the dishes – that wasn’t already on the list, I’d add it just to cross it off. … More Death By To-Do List
After writing the last post and giving myself “permission” to stop writing and – more importantly – stop stressing about writing, a funny thing happened. Actually two things happened: I started to enjoy life a bit more, and I started to miss writing. Not at first. Nope, I went a solid 14 days (yes, I … More Stepping Out Of The Forest To See The Trees
I feel like I’ve used that saying a lot lately. If you’re a writer (or painter, musician, any type of creative person) you probably have too. Because it’s true. Yesterday I took to Twitter to ask my lovely Tweeples if people actually read blogs anymore. What I really wanted to know was should I blog? … More The Struggle Is Real
I’m at the coffee shop right now. I have all my writing ‘tools’ laid out in from of me and I’m ready to go. So of course I need to write this blog post RIGHT NOW. No, I’m not stalling, YOU ARE! *Errhhemm* Anyway… this week has been madness for me. Carpet Madness! (That’s an … More My Life Is Like Tetris
Here’s an update, video style! XO, Angie
I did a thing… I signed up for NaNoWriMo this year. Gods help me! For those unfamiliar with the acronym, NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month, and it’s where you write an entire novel (50,000 words) in the month of November. Egads! I first began NaNo back in 2011. I was fairly wet behind … More It’s That Time Of Year! – NaNoWriMo Prep
You know what the best part of sleeping is? Dreaming. I swear my sleeping brain is hella creative. Often I wake up the following morning, turn to my husband and say ‘I had the craziest dream last night’ and after explaining the bizarre dream in its entirety, he usually replies with ‘How do you come up … More Creating Fiction From Dreams
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sat down in front of my computer to write and succumbed to the overwhelming fear that I have nothing to say. It’s a thing. The struggle is real. I’m working on book two of my series and despite having a good outline and plot, the words escape … More Writing When The Words Won’t Come
Well, hello again! So glad you stopped by. Today’s post is something a bit different I hope you enjoy it. I’ve been debating for some time now on whether or not to post a small excerpt from my writing. I’ve been working hard on my urban fantasy series The Reaper Chronicles and book one, The Reaper’s Bride, … More A Reaper Called James
Sometimes my past self is a real jerk. She’s always doing stuff with massive repercussions without thinking too much on it. She’s often heard spewing her favourite line “That’s Future Angie’s problem.” Well, Future Angie is here and she’s pissed! (Wait, doesn’t that make me Present Angie? Gods, I have no idea.) The above tweet … More Rewriting A Series – Shit Just Got Real
