Battling the Winter Blues

Hey fellow readers and writers. It has been quite a month! January did not go quite as I planned it. I spent most of the month being sick due to an interaction with two of my medications. It took about a week and a half for me to feel somewhat normal after weaning off of …

End of the Year Reflection and Goals for the New Year

Hey fellow readers and writers! It’s been a while. Originally, I had a different post for December, but instead, I will save that for another day and do an end-of-the-year reflection and talk about my goals for January and my goals for the year. I’m pretty excited for the New Year and hoping that this …

Finding My Way

Hey fellow readers and writers! It’s been two months since I last posted. I was dealing with some health issues and still navigating through my writer’s slump. These past few weeks, I have been doing a lot of soul searching. I thought it was enough for me to know why I was having such a …

Navigating the Writer’s Slump

Hey fellow readers and writers! So, I didn’t meet my writing goals again this month. But I did get 10K in, and I finished the second draft of Project Viper. After struggling with the draft for several weeks, I decided that it was more or less done. It was a relief to be done with …

Finding The Balance

If you have read my previous blog posts, then you know I have been struggling with time management and taking time for myself. These past few weeks, I have been trying to …

Persevering

Hey fellow readers and writers! I cannot believe it is mid-month already. I meant to do a recap of last month before I left for vacation, but things got so hectic. This past week my family and I went to Alexandria Bay, NY. We got to see Boldt Castle and spent the day riding around …

Time Management

Hey fellow readers and writers! This month I am all about time management. I am tired of struggling with finding time to write, read, and juggle my personal life. I feel exhausted all the time, and it seems like I am not getting anything done. After chatting with my therapist this past week, we have …

Writer’s Update

Hey fellow readers and writers! Do you ever feel like there aren’t enough hours in a day? Sometimes I wish I had that time-turner necklace Hermione had in Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban. Lately, I have been in a slump. I have been feeling unmotivated and have been way too hooked on slice-of-life …

Marching On

Hey fellow writers and readers! This month did not start so well. I was pretty depressed and agitated the first two days. I am still working on focusing on the time I do have versus the time I don’t. Another problem I have is I tend to keep things bottled in, which stresses me out. …

Taking Time For Yourself

The older you get, the harder it becomes to find time for yourself. I envy my younger self and all the time I used to have. Back in October, I did a post on “The Importance of Self-Care.” Most of us don’t always have the time to take time for ourselves. For a while, taking …
