Today I stayed home with my little one and worked on my novel. I’m working on the protagonist community and their belief system. I think developing my protagonist more will help me with details in the rest of the story. Especially since the protagonist is an entire community rather than just one individual. I wasContinue reading “Surprisingly Productive Day”

Writing and Working Out
Today was my first day back to the gym since I got sick. It felt nice to be there. I was more mindful of my mask because I don’t want to get anyone else sick but besides that, it was nice. I took it easy. I didn’t wanna over do it because I want toContinue reading “Writing and Working Out”
My Sundays
I spent the day cleaning and getting my home back in order. It was really nice to get things organized and feel like I have some order in my home again. On Sundays, I listen to Elevation Church with Steven Furtick, The Potter’s House with TD Jakes, and Serius Joy with Sensei Christopher Witecki. It’sContinue reading “My Sundays”
Valentines Day
I love Valentines day. I love the hearts and the pink things and all the romance. I tried for a little while to not like it, but it is just a holiday I love.

Novel Update
Today I got a good chunk of editing done. There’s still some scenes that could flow better timewise. And some confusing parts I have to bring order to, but it felt good to have a good editing session. It’s scary writing a novel. It’s an adventure for sure. I’m feeling a little discouraged with theContinue reading “Novel Update”

Snuggles and gratitude
I’ve gotten in so many snuggles with my family. I don’t think I let myself snuggle with them enough. I have so much going on, that snuggling can feel suffocating. But since we’ve been home sick, it’s been snuggle heaven. On another note, my mom has been amazing, coming over and making sure we eatContinue reading “Snuggles and gratitude”
Night Owls Welcome Here
According to Oxford University biologist Kathrine Wulff, “If people are left to their naturally preferred times, they feel much better. They say that they are much more productive. The mental capacity they have is much broader,” says Oxford University biologist Katharina Wulff, who studies chronobiology and sleep. On the other hand, she says, pushing people tooContinue reading “Night Owls Welcome Here”
