Professional Writing Goal Unlocked
Guys, something I literally never thought would even be a *thing* has happened. To begin, I never realized how many creative writing jobs there existed in the world until I became published and thought to myself, “You know, self, I think I’d like to explore other outlets.” Cut to: me looking all over LinkedIn to…

It’s no surprise to me…
Every now and then I do kick the living shite out of myself. I have *so much* that I need to work on. So much. But can I? No. I literally cannot. It’s almost the end of August. My publisher said I need to get the draft of my sequel to the editor by October…

Soggy Middle
Sounds gross, right? That’s because it is. I am stomping around in a thick mass of wet, thick, congealing muck while trying to pick it up and piece it together to create the middle of this novel while also making sure it’s fun, fast-paced, and necessary. Physically, I’m sitting at my laptop and doing my…

Book 2
Book 2! The sequel! Number two! It’s coming along. I’m about 30K words in and within the next 5-10 I’ll be halfway. I don’t want to say to much about it, but it’s fun. Writing in a different character’s POV has been a challenge. Finding this character’s voice has taken some time. The first 20K…

It’s Been One Week

Burn Out
I don’t know about your profession, but teachers talk about burn out quite a bit. Only to other teachers. And only when those specific people who try to make you feel like a pile of shit for complaining aren’t around. Burn out is a real thing. It sucks. I had a spurt of energy and…

Interview
First, let me say that being on camera fills me with butterflies that would like to lift my body into the air and take me away. But, T, you have a TikTok and you basically only use it to show the world how dorky you truly are! Too true, friend, too true. The TikToks are…

I’m back!
It’s been a *hot* minute since I’ve written anything about writing. I’ve thought about writing about the process and the progress the book has made since we’re creeping up on the pub date, but every time I get to the keyboard I come up empty. It’s like that sometimes. It’s a-okay. I can tell you…
