Never Going Away
The anonymous nature of writing helps me process. I write my feelings, I write my ideas, and I hope so much for my own skill to rise. I have high expectations. For myself. I've written many things just in the past year. The posts on this blog have helped me understand. Or, I've finally gotten …

The Feeling of the Day is…
Resistance. It's not a feeling of being lost. More, misplaced. Scrambled rather than being a black hole of nothing. What's the point? There is none. There doesn't have to be a reason. Just as there doesn't have to be a reason to breathe and live. Writing doesn't need a reason--this is something that I consider …

Numbers and mythology, a different language that I like to use. And hope to be good at, for decent writing, some day. Doubt and frustration. Part of the …
Endless
Identifying my feelings has been a bit easy just for the pure fact that I'm constantly in my head. As a writer, it's kind of required to have some insight to emotions--the reasons, the workings, apart and together. Writing, for me, causes an introspection, especially when I want to pin down character reactions and interactions. …
One Year at a Time
One full year of posting. It's been work. It's been fun. It's been a struggle. It's been glorious. I feel as if I had a lot of low moments. But, I think, I've had just as many high moments producing stories I really enjoyed writing. I'm a little lost on where I'm going yet excited …
