  • Rejections Hurt, But You Don’t Have to Let it Hurt Your Writing!

    Hello everyone. It has been a long, long while since I posted last. School gets wild when finals are due. But I wanted to relay something that has helped me when I receive one rejection after another, and that is inspiration, or what some call, motivation. I guess I shall call it inspirational motivation. Hope […]

  • An Excert from a scene I was Thinking About

    “He told me that he loved me, but in that broken moment, I knew he was lying. There are no words to express the pain in knowing he could never love me. But again, I find it comforting to know the truth of the man I once knew. Maybe another time, he could love, but […]

  • What Makes a Great Read?

    Today, I will like to discuss the basics of a novel: what makes it good and why. A novelist is a storyteller, plain and simple, and being a storyteller does not mean you must be the best editor of grammar and style (though knowing the basics of grammar is necessary). What makes a great read […]

  • Back to the Gym

      I started working out again on Monday. It feels good exercising, but I wonder how long I can keep up the routine. Last time it was about two months, and I lost twelve pounds.  Since then, I have gained it all back and more, but this time, I really want to lose at least […]

  • Who Said You Have to Write for Hours?

    Life is busy, hard, and can sometimes choke the life out of you. It seems there is always something to do or something waiting to be done. Jobs (especially the ones we hate) control most of our days and give us enough stress to make us want to throw in the towel and take a […]

  • To Burn or To Melt? With this Heat–Both!

    Apparently it is 105 degrees outside and I have a flat. Thank God I have one of those electric things (Like my technical term?) that air up a flat tire. My tire captured a nail, so that means I will have to take it to the shop. At least, it wasn’t all the way flat. […]

  • What’s Your Software?

    There are many programs writers can use other than Microsoft Word. No offense to the Word, which I used to use, but there are software that is made specifically for writers. Word is awesome, if you know how to use it well, but it still lacks features that can make it easier for us writers […]
