I’m finally into my final 5,000 words. And you know what I’ve noticed? I forgot to focus on some characterizations. So I’m going to print out what I have and highlight those sections. I also want to change to appearance of one character which means I have a lot of sections to go back into.Continue reading “The Last 5k”

Excitey Pants!
The title says it all. It also contributes to the fact that I’m a search result if you google “excitey pants.” Gotta keep that up. On Monday, I went to NYC for my interview at HarperCollins! I think it went really well and I’m confident that I’m an excellent choice for the position (Won’t thatContinue reading “Excitey Pants!”
End of Week #15
Fifteen weeks? Seriously? I’ve been at this for…fifteen…weeks? Isn’t my semester only fifteen weeks long? Don’t mind me. Crying is productive.
Oh, The Weather Outside Is… COLD! OH MY GOD!
This weekend I barely closed my coat. You have to understand that. I went outside, I had it on, and I didn’t even bother to keep it on when I got in the car. Today, on the other hand, the other gloved hand, I needed my coat, my gloves, and my scarf. I wish IContinue reading “Oh, The Weather Outside Is… COLD! OH MY GOD!”
Another Day, Another Cough Drop
First, let me tell you about the weather here. Most weeks have gone something like 70, 60, 50, into the 40s, and back up to the 80s. Some days have been muggy. Some days have been dry. Yesterday was miserable. The rain was that misty crap that your umbrella can’t stop. It doesn’t come downContinue reading “Another Day, Another Cough Drop”
Mean Themes and New Books
As you can see, I’ve updated the theme for my blog. Much more pink now. But when I did that, ALL MY WIDGETS VANISHED! It’s not hard to put them back up but–seriously–what gives. That was obnoxious. In any case, I’m sitting at work, waiting for Mom to finish her work (yep, I work withContinue reading “Mean Themes and New Books”
Our Next Big Adventure
I’m sitting in 30th Street Station for the first time in a few years. The last time I was here, I was waiting for a train to go up to Connecticut to visit some friends from school. It’s the same reason today except that I am heading down to Maryland instead…
Some Writing Assignments
I am taking two classes this semester. I have my required Core I: Theories and Techniques of Writing class as well as Fiction Workshop and I’m honestly looking forward to this semester. Both classes look like they are going to be right up my alley and will be a lot of fun. I was talkingContinue reading “Some Writing Assignments”
Just Some Ramblings
In just a few days, I start my first semester as a grad student at Rowan University. Just the anticipation made me think about how different I am now, then when I started college back in 2005. I graduated high school in 2005 and went straight into college. No breaks. Not even one semester becauseContinue reading “Just Some Ramblings”
My Daily Dosage of High Blood Pressure
Tuesday night, I logged into my banner account for school to see if my final grade for my senior portfolio had been posted (I’ve been checking every day, I’m a little obsessive). There was something posted alright — AN INCOMPLETE! My application for grad school just went into review! Not going to lie: I cried. I cried realContinue reading “My Daily Dosage of High Blood Pressure”
