Planner or Pantser?
I was recently going through Limyaael’s Rants (which I highly suggest to anyone who is interested in writing) and came across one about writing without an outline. Which, of course, made me think about planning versus pantsing when writing.
For anyone who… View Post

I realize that I don’t have the most exciting life. Especially now that Scott and I are waiting on his bone marrow transplant. Most days are either spent in the house or at the hospital. However, as I am a big… View Post

Pay Sites: Yay or Nay?
This question was brought on by the fact that 750words.com is soon to become a pay site. Which means that people who used 750words because it was a free service will no longer be able to. Granted it will only cost $5 a month to use but ,for some people,… View Post
If Life Was Fair

If life was fair, no one would know the harshness of abandonment. No one would feel unloved or unappreciated.
If life was fair, all travelers would return home to… View Post

The Procrastination Curse
Lately I’ve found that I’ve had to remind myself that, no matter how hard I try, I am not perfect. I am human. I make mistakes. Sometimes, I put things off or do them less than perfect. But what I have to keep reminding myself is that imperfection is… View Post shared via WordPress.com

No More LiveJournal Updates
In a sad turn of events, I have decided to no longer update my livejournal. I found that, when I have my comments open, I get a lot of spam. I did toy with the idea of just closing off comments but I want everyone who reads my works to be able to comment… View Post shared via WordPress.com

Bonus Update: I found an old piece of writing
I decided to sort through some of my writing stuff today and I found this little noir gem. Originally I had planned to do more with this piece but, as usual, that didn’t happen. Maybe I will get back to this piece someday and expand on it. Until then, you… View Post shared via WordPress.com
A Prologue... Of Sorts
I’ve decided to post the prologue that I wrote for my novel “Bringing the Dawn”. Normally I don’t post anything to the public that I’ve written for my novel. However, I’ve recently decided to delete the prologue from the manuscript because it adds nothing… View Post shared via WordPress.com
New Piece of Writing!
It feels like forever since I last posted a piece of my writing. I wish I could say that is hasn’t been that long but my last posted writing was almost a year ago. I feel ashamed. I could blame school or work, maybe even friends and family; but I think we… View Post shared via WordPress.com

Minecraft Is Sabotaging Me!
I realize that I haven’t updated my LiveJournal for awhile and it has already been a week since I last updated my WordPress. But in my defense, MineCraft is sabotaging my efforts to write and update.

Life has still not calmed down. If anything, it is just as crazy as before only in a different way. But, then again, aren’t the holidays crazy for everyone? There are family potlucks, wrapping presents, decorating, and all that cooking. It’s a crazy time of year but it’s also an amazing time of year. I will admit that I did get some writing done and I even managed to read a few...

I get my new computer either today or tomorrow! I am so excited.
Also there is a new Espresso Bar/Coffee Shop in S’side. And so far I love it. Real espresso drinks are LOVE. Capital letters definitely required for emphasis.
So I am currently here journalling until Encounter tonight. Now I am going to leave you with a picture of my lovely drink and journal.
Take care, A. P.
