Balance (A Book Update)

I'm 14k words deep into writing book 2 now, the process is so different than writing The Beginning was. When I wrote The Beginning I just wrote and wrote and wrote. There wasn't anything else I had to focus on so I was able to finish it in about three months. I'm working on promoting … Continue reading Balance (A Book Update) →

Ways In Which We Relate to Our Characters

My last post likely ruffled a lot of feathers and I have to admit that was the point. I've spent my entire life stuck in the middle between the ableds and the disableds; never abled enough for the ableds and never disabled enough for the disableds. When I started working on my book, the divide … Continue reading Ways In Which We Relate to Our Characters →

We’re All In This Together, Right?

I keep seeing people say, "we're all in this together," any time COVID-19 is brought up. But, that's a lie. Why? Because while you're chanting, "we're all in this together," people like me are being left to die because there aren't enough hospital beds and ventilators, hospitals are having to decide who lives and who … Continue reading We’re All In This Together, Right? →

Brave

Since I started working on my book a lot of people have called me a lot of things: badass, foolish, ridiculous, strong, determined and much more. I decided early on to be completely honest with all of my followers during this process. I'm doing this with no budget at all. Not even a dollar. There … Continue reading Brave →

When In Doubt…

A few days ago my laptop's keyboard started dying. This was a laptop I bought second hand off of eBay last year. It had motherboard issues from the first day I had it and I knew it wasn't going to last forever, but when you're stuck with SSI income, you get what you get sometimes. … Continue reading When In Doubt… →

This is Diamond. She was my service dog for 12 … Continue reading Service Animal Etiquette →
