...or part one of our plan is complete. We are at my parent's house, and this new chapter has begun. While hubby does his orientation this morning, I get to unpack, sort and organize before doing any of my work for the day. This could mean a long day for me, but we didn't have… Continue reading We made it

We have decided! We have a plan!
...or how we reached where we are going live. For those of you who don't know, My husband and I have been homeless since March of last year. We've been trying to save money while he works on the road, which has been more of a challenge than most people would imagine. Road expenses were… Continue reading We have decided! We have a plan!
The Lost Session… A Review
A little vignette has dropped, giving us a sneaky peek at the actors in their roles and the backdrop. So, naturally, I have to take a look and give a review. So, without any more blabbering... So, on October 19, 2021, this dropped on Twitter. https://twitter.com/netflix/status/1450431535690170368?s=20 As I am not one to repeat myself, I… Continue reading The Lost Session… A Review
A Rebel, A Ghost, Space Cowboys, and more… A Walk Through Time… Part 2
I know. It's been too long since I did part 1. I have a looooong list of anime to get through. Just keep in mind, I am going by the dates the anime was released and not when I watched them.

Starting to Plot It Out
I warned you. The updates are coming and they will keep coming. This is how I hold myself accountable, and how can follow my chaotic and ADHD writing style. You get to see the plot points and character "sketches". So, strap yourself in, and let's get to it. My first NaNo project was completely off… Continue reading Starting to Plot It Out
“Everything is Political”- A Rebuttal
"Everything is Political." This is the phrase that people use when those of us who want adaptations to be true to the source material complain about canon and the universe is being changed in order to convey current political views. I have rebutted this on Twitter, but even 240 characters can be limiting. So, I… Continue reading “Everything is Political”- A Rebuttal
Who is the main Character?
As I get started on the prep work for NaNoWriMo, I have to ask myself who is the protagonist? After all, you have to make characters multi-faceted and not just good-guy or bad-guy. On that note, this is me jotting down who the protagonist is for my November novel writing challenge. I start with the… Continue reading Who is the main Character?
Cowboy Out of Time Prep Part 1
No one knows how an inspiration happens, but when it does, it can lead to something truly wonderful to behold. The thing is, when an inspiration leads to a novel, how should it take shape? Where do you begin? Where do you go from the initial thought? Well, you need to take a look at… Continue reading Cowboy Out of Time Prep Part 1
OMG… It’s Nano Prep Time!
