There’s nothing like a great book that gets me motivated to write and revise again but I’ve been in a rut with revisions lately. After and during reading an inspired book, it ignites my passion to create a world as amazing as the story I’m reading. I know that it’s easier said that done. Although, there are times I read an average or not-so-great book and it still urges me to write better. There’s something about reading a book that motivates me to create my own world and story. It gives me an incentive to keep writing and to tell…

I’ve been overthinking a lot of things for the last few years that I forget that part of creativity is playing, getting messy, and having fun. Play activates the part of the the brain to learn in the flow state.In the flow state I learn new techniques or something I never knew before. I’m tired of acting like a robot and want to learn from my mistakes because the more mistakes I make, the more I will grow.That said, I still want to strive to better myself but I think I’m stressing myself out for no good reason. There’s more…

In between the cracks of my daily life, I’m making time to grow in my skills and have a better life. I’m fortunate that I don’t have huge responsibilities where they must be a priority but I do have standard responsibilities. I want to keep improving myself and keep learning. We are all forever works in progress. I’m going to get a bit vulnerable with you guys. I’ve never had high self esteem or confidence in myself. Often times I’m the one on the sidelines hiding from attention, the wallflower during a party, or the nearly invisible person during the…

I find myself too caught up with the race that is life. Keep forgetting that it’s a marathon, not a sprint. I’ve been unnecessarily stressing myself out so that I don’t take the time to sit and be present in life. I’m busy decompressing from the day once I get home and am working on this problem. As you know I’ve been busy with revisions for my YA Fantasy debut novel but I got stuck in the past few weeks. My brain turned to mush and I couldn’t think of what to do next. All I knew is that it…

I’m going to be featuring vacations and places I’ve visited the last few years! Partially so I can record my experience but also to share how I was able to visit and survive(most times) Gluten Free (GF)! The reason these are so delayed is because I didn’t have time to write up any of my experiences the last few years but it’s better late than never. Unfortunately, the island of St. Croix had been damaged from recent hurricanes so I’m not aware of the current status of the places I’ll mention. The information provided below are from 2017 when I…

This is my first time doing a “Word of the Year” (WOTY) thing. I jumped on the bandwagon when I saw everyone else doing it during the new year. I thought it might be fun to join in so I’ve officially decided the word of the year is: COMPLETE If you follow me on social media then you already know that this word wasn’t my first word of choice. I had a change of heart a few days after I chose my first WOTY which was FINISH. After a few days of thinking, I ended up finding a better word…

Often we take our health for granted. As I type this, I’m sick with a head cold. Runny nose, congestion, and a bit of a cough. Thank goodness that’s all I have. I’ve had worse but I’ve been fortunate enough to not get sick too often but often enough that when I do get sick, it’s a wake up call. It’s my reminder that you can’t do well in life if you don’t take care of yourself first. Instead I’ve been fighting my body trying to recover faster so I could work on different tasks on my to-do list. This…
Leave a Comment“Slow down…enjoy the moment…” is what I’ve been telling myself lately. I’ve found myself trying to rush through finishing tasks and trying to work on the next thing to get them done faster instead of savoring the feeling of accomplishment. I feel this is what society today has been pushing instead of being more present and in the moment of our lives. Instead we as a society honor the idea of being “busy” as a “badge of honor”, if I’m not busy then I’m “lazy”. I’ve been caught up in that trap, so much that I’ve found myself losing weight,…
