100 Days of Writing

Hi friends!

My brain has been spinning these past few weeks, thinking about our 100KQ4 Challenge of last year and also the craze of 75 Hard/Medium/Soft that took over our writer spaces.

Was I a guilty party in helping spread the craze?...

Initial Cover Designs!! VOTE for your favorite. :)

EEEEEK, it’s* here!!

Well, *they’re here. The cover design process has begun and we have TWO potential options for THANKS FOR WATCHING. I would really love if y’all could give me your feedback and initial thoughts on b...

Meet Samwise & requesting input/suggestions!

We have a new cat!

His name is Samwise Catgee and so far he's a very brave boy (much like the hobbit he's named after). He also loves cuddles and is a purr machine.

Here's another photo of him, inspecting my crochet Autumn drawstring b...

EEEEEEEEEEEK!

It's happening!!!

I wanted to hop on here first before I told anyone else. What I once called UNDER THE INFLUENCE - changed because Simon & Schuster, our distribut...

In flux

Hi friends!!

I just got back from an INCREDIBLE trip celebrating my brother and future sister-in-law. We went wedding dress shopping, toured their venue, and ate as much toasted ravioli as we could stomach. (And also celebrated my birthday w...

The 24-hour Write-a-thon & 75 Medium!

Hello, hello friends!

My outline-a-thon this past weekend (and, okay, Monday and Tuesday, too) was a HUGE success. I feel so confident now about revisiting some previously shelved WIPs (Project Purple, Scooby Doo x Princess Bride, and Religi...

Back-to-back A-thon Weekends!!

Titles: 1, Me: 0

What I mean to say is, on the 29th and 30th of this month (so, like, in a couple days), I'm going to be doing my semi-annual outline-a-thon!

Stream links and times for the 1000 Words of Summer Challenge!

Happy weekend, friends! Hope you have/had a wonderful Friday. :)

Popping in to share the 1000 Words of Summer stream links and times! It seems like varying times work best, so I've gone ahead and picked some for the morning, afternoon, and e...

Double Stream Days & 1000 Words of Summer!

I'M HOME!

I feel like I'm going to be saying that a lot the rest of Spring and into Summer. ("I'm leaving!" "I'm home!" "I'm leaving again!" "I'm back!")

May Daze & The Shire

Hello, hello friends!

At the risk of my May totally imploding by sharing this, here's everything I currently have planned for streaming and videos!

We'll do our Patreon Double Stream Days on Sunday, May 18th and Monday, May 19th. Times...

April is really trying me...

UPDATE!

So sorry to change the time on this yet again. 😭

Thor and Buffy played a little too hard with each other and his ear got nipped. Thankfully my vet can squeeze him in today, but I won't be back home in time to stream!

Double Stream Days & light drafting goals!

Hello, hello friends!

The month is off to a strange start. My plans have been pushed back a little since my husband's grandma ended up with a surprise stay in the hospital. (I had been joking that I caught her illness before, so I can't even...

Nostalgia writing experiment poll!

Hi friends!

A bit of a silly writing experiment poll as I get back into the swing of things.

Do you remember those old pen-and-paper games we used to play in school? Sometimes by passing notes back to friends, sometimes as we waited fo...

I'm Home!

HELLO FRIENDS! It feels like such a long time since we've chatted. Hello, hello, hello!!! I hope y'all have been well and that the words have been flowing!

I had an absolutely incredible time in Vietnam.

Questionnaire and the PomLESSdoro experiment!

Hi friends!

As is now tradition, I spent the last couple days of vacation feeling a strange throat tickle coming on. Despite my delusional hope of it being allergies, I was proven wrong and it's now a full blown cold that's stripped me of my...

Experiments are back!!

Hello, hello friends!

Quick reminder before we jump into our writing experiment options: we have a stream today, at 3:30pm CST! You can find the link her...

100KQ4 Results, what's up next, & the 1st of our Double Stream Days!

I hope it’s not too late to say HAPPY NEW YEAR, FRIENDS!

We did it! We survived another year, we started 2025, and we completed the 100KQ4. I’m so proud of us. Whether you wrote one word or 100,000+ during this time, it was so incredibly...

Stream links & craft book club questions!

Hi friends!

I spent the morning trying to get my MIL's new cat -- Rocky -- to come out from behind the dryer (his favorite hiding spot). He's stayed hidden the entire couple months she's had him (eating treats and food fine though, lol) but ...

The final push!

Hello, hello friends!

What a busy, hectic, stuffed month this December has been! So much to do, so many people to see, and yet I feel like I blinked and somehow we're at the end. Less than a week until we're in 2025!

Yesterday was all ...

Today's stream!

Alright, I think I've done it. I think I've figured out a Streamyard-less way to have our Patreon sprints. VICTORY IS MINE.

(Famous last words.)

Keeping my fingers crossed I will see y'all without any blips at 4:45pm CST! I'll plan to ...

5K Fridays & Black Friday Deals

Helloooooo friends. Happiest Monday to you! Hope the weekend treated you well.

Apologies for not posting yesterday. We were supposed to have a stream, but unfortunately my migraines had another plan for the day.

I hope I can make it up...

A poem for today. 🌱

On the stream yesterday, I pulled one of my “Poetry on Prescription” Grounded pills and read a poem that none of us really understood.

So I wanted to make up for it! Here’s today’s poem that really resonated with me.

I'M HOME! | stream today & retreat realizations!

Hello, hello friends!

I feel like it's been such a long time even though, realistically, it's been two weeks (at most). But during this 100KQ4 challenge, that IS a long time! Not only has it been a while away from y'all, it's been a while aw...

It's a new month!

It's November!

I was going to open with "happy November" but my general anxiety over the election is preventing me from getting there. So instead, I decided to open with a fact. It is indeed November.

And there are a lot of happy mome...

Picking up Thor, my crochet spider web top, & all the streams!
