The praise before the raise

I've been stumped today. And what to write about. Hence the very late post. (you'd think for something I do once a fortnight, I'd be more organized and prepared). I'm pumping up my testimony for when so many things align - so that I can talk about what it feels like to live in answered …

What to do with feedback on your craft

At some point in your writing journey (something we all know to be a solitary undertaking), you will need or want some feedback. I like feedback...or so I say. I like to know how people are impacted by the words I put together. Even better when they see no fault and are just singing about …

The Art of showing up

Last Monday of the month! Roughly another month down and I hope you are doing your best with the things you had set out to do. Some of mine are going strong. Some of them are yet to materialize. But there's a goal and I'm pressing towards it. Just like this post. I have been …

Writing Lately.

First Writer's Wednesday on this blog in a while. In a while! What, what?!! Let's start this off with something light. A spin on the life lately trend. But solely writing (unfortunately there are no pictures to back this up, so use your imagination) . 1. I have read back some of my journal entries …

Something’s Gotta Change

It's 2024! Like it's been for the past 30 days 😌. I hope the year started off on the right page for you and you are writing and/or reading to your heart's content. I hope to be writing and reading to my heart's content too. Hence, the title. I hope to show up more right …

27 and…listening to the crickets here😅

It's been a while! And that's okay. The sun keeps shining and the rain still falls. Somehow the world keeps on turning. And we are surviving. And that's okay too. Returning in small doses is okay, right? Building up tolerance as we up the dosage - or something like that. Should be okay. Been living …

I see the light -The Rekindling

And just like that, the month is over. Thank you for coming along as I explored some thoughts that needed an outlet. I See The Light by Zachary Levi and Mandy Moore (Tangled OST) All those days watching from the windows I've read through some of these posts, trying to figure out how to close …

Homeward – The Rekindling

We can practically see the finishing line now - on WinterABC23. Have you done all the reading to your heart's content? Seen yourself in some of these stories? Well, here's Homeward. Homeward by Benjamin William Hastings (Benjamin William Hastings Album) Somewhere in between the promise and the place it comes to pass I found Hastings …

Wondering – The Rekindling

We all know that there's resurrecting dead dreams. But what if the line is not always so clear cut between two options. Two good options. Wondering by Julie Lester and Olivia Rodrigo (High School Musical The Musical The Series Volume 1) Seems like a part of me will always have to lose, every single time …

A Million Dreams – The Rekindling

The last week of June, the last week of WinterABC23. I like to think that this writing has followed a theme each week but maybe it's been all over the place. This week though, its all about encouragement, lighting a fire under your behinds to get your chasing things - dreams, trips, relationships, self-improvement - …
