Explosive and deadly, but oh, do I shine bright. This is what I aspire to be. This is what I want to be said of me. What would you like said of you?



For anyone who's interested, my kitten Onyx is about four months old, a healthy weight, and super active. Even better, she's happy and loved.

Okay... so I should probably get to the point of this post. Which you already know if you read the title. 

My writing process for July is spotty at best. I'm trying to integrate it into my daily life, via phone and laptop. But it's sooo easy to just open up Youtube or Pinterest and not work on my WIPs. So I'm trying to be more disciplined about it.

Ideally, I would be dedicating an hour in the morning or evening to editing/writing, as well as my break times. My "real job" is full time though, and I'm trying to figure out how my writing (which I NEED) fits into all my responsibilities without causing problems. If you have any tips, let me know below.

And yeah, that's my writing process for the month. Sorry it's not more put together, but honestly, I'm struggling right now. It's not all fun and fantasy. Maybe August will be better....

Via Pinterest But anyway, today I'm writing about my favorite books. I promise to limit myself to about five or so, but cut me some slack, okay? Words are pretty much my favorite of all time. Via Google The Book Thief  by Markus Zusak Set in World War Two, this is the story of an orphan, a fist-fighter, and the power of words. But no one can know Max the fighter lives with Liesel's family. If they are found harboring a Jew, all will change. In this time of chaos, Max and Liesel both find hope and refuge in books and writing. Via Google The Children of Hurin  by J.R.R. Tolkein A story from before Lord of the Rings , a man is forced to watch every member of his family fall to tragedy and madness. Captured by Morgoth, Hurin sits and watches hi

Please remember that your laugh is a magical thing. Please remember that now will change. Please remember that you are alive for a reason. Please remember that all of this mess will work out. Please remember that hope changes everything. Please remember that dreaming renews your hopes.

From "The Dragon Books" Annnddddd........ We're back for a Teaser Tuesday!!! For anyone who doesn't already know, The Dragons' Stones  is the novel I completed last year. It's synopsis is  "Princess Ciara must retrieve the fabled Dragons' Stones or face life imprisonment. Aleksander hopes that by helping her with this quest, he will make peace with regrets from his past." From "The Dragon Books" No, I'm not going to tell y'all why this prompt fits into The Dragons' Stones . Just know that applies.  Now, it's time for the teaser. Today, it's from Ciara's perspective. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I paused below a window as worry rolled down my shoulders to the ground. I knew. I remembered. I sighed with relief and kept moving until I was out of the village. Beyond it grew a forest. I marched between the trees. The wind hissed among their leaves, and then I
