A post where I admit to purposely missing my April short story deadline to get some sleep. The ending of my story is in sight I’m just too tired to keep my eyes open to see it! … More April Story: Not quite done
In my haste to complete my monthly goal of 12 short stories a year I realized I forgot about looking into actually submitting my completed short stories. So now in addition to creating stories I’m also committed to finding places to publish my work. … More I want to submit stories
A writing blog where I discuss moving on to my April short story and announce the title of my April story. The title makes me think of my childhood but the story definitely isn’t about my childhood. … More Putting the extra children’s story aside and starting the April story.
My short story inspired by my puppy is done but I’m still technically writing for March. Since I finished the monthly goal I’m actually working on another children’s short story. … More Freckle Face is DONE

I did it! Over 6,000 words later and 9 days past deadline but I did it!!! The February short story is finally done. It was a different genre (ghost story) than I’ve done before so that made it challenging and all the more rewarding! … More February Story- Finally Done!
I plan on posting an ALL DONE post later today for my February story. I just have to tie up a few loose ends. So expect an excited report from me soon. … More Progress Report: Almost Done
Since I’m not actually posting the stories here I suppose I could lie and say I finished my February story and you would never know. But I would know and I don’t want to be Pinocchio 🤥 on this blog. So here’s where I admit I haven’t yet finished my February story. … More Oops- Didn’t quite finish
I’m way behind on my monthly story (especially considering tomorrow is the last day of the month). Binge-watching the Olympics (and following Olympians on Social Media) and a bad headache haven’t helped me focus. However, it’s only February and I don’t plan on abandoning my goal of a year of monthly short stories after just one month. … More Procrastinating because of the Olympics
I suppose it’s apropos that it’s nearing Valentine’s Day and I’m craving something. For the first time in years I’m actually craving the characters in the story I’m writing and not chocolate. Oh who am I kidding. I’m always craving chocolate. 🍫 … More Craving Characters
