A warning. This post delves deep into my psychological state. If you can’t handle open discussion of depression, feelings, and all the messy things then you might need to wait for the next one. Also it’s going to jump around a lot. I have a lot of thoughts that I’m trying to parse out. Depression... Continue Reading →
Poem: Contact
The day you came to my world I was afraid Like a child in a dark room The unknown everywhere I thought to hate you like they did even though You came to us on your knees hands up and afraid
A Forum
In my effort to move away from Facebook I've created a forum to serve as the source for my internet social and writing life. I hope to be able to gather like-minded people to discuss all the cool things about writing and everything in between. Eventually, if demand is there, I'll expand the forum for... Continue Reading →
Poem: Likemind
The sounds of your tongue and the sounds of mine were far apart and unaligned But emotion is a universal thing Across distance and time and I saw in your shaking handsThe sadness of a likemind.
Constructing
I think I spent close to two of the three hours I spent writing today staring at the screen. It was productive staring but it was still staring. I'm sure every writer has a word for it or does it in their own way but the way that I refer to it is Constructing (plot... Continue Reading →
Journal Digest Dec 10th – 16th

Movie Review: Mortal Engines

It's one of those films that I might have to see over again just to get another grasp on the themes. I did enjoy it... Continue Reading →
Failure
I was telling a friend the other day about my progress (and lack thereof) in losing weight and I came to realization that people have a reactionary response to the word “failure.” Every time I said to him “I failed at this I failed at that” he would respond with “don’t see it as a...

Movie Review: Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse
https://youtu.be/g4Hbz2jLxvQ Definitely one of the best movies I've seen all year! I'm probably going to try to see this one again in theaters. I'm going to do my best to keep this review spoiler free. Possibly after I see it a second or third time I'll try to deep dive into some themes and/or other... Continue Reading →
Writing Schedule
I recently saw on Craig Alanson's website that he has a daily writing goal of 4000 words a day! Granted he works on writing full time so that's acceptable but still. I'm jealous! I've got the idea that I want to think in terms of "everyday is NaNoWriMo" so I want to attempt to get... Continue Reading →
