Last night I sat in front of the TV feeling like I just participated in the great brain drain. My energy was sapped and I started thinking about a way to bring in more color into my thoughts. Experts say that we should digest more colorful fruits and vegetables into our diet, well how aboutContinue reading “Day 3 of Visual Story Telling”

Day 2 of Visual Story Telling
Welcome to the beginning of a new month and a new kind of prompt from yesterday. We’re doing all visuals for the rest of the week to help capture the imagery stuck in your head but not seen by your audience in your story. This week is a way of thinking out loud or onContinue reading “Day 2 of Visual Story Telling”
Thinking In Color
I’m back into my creator videos and those who share their sketching or writing journals. You may want to take note if you’re looking for more ways to create content. Taking ideas from those outside of your genre, or medium is another way to find new stories. I talked about change yesterday, and I wouldContinue reading “Thinking In Color”
Makeup Monday
This morning I wasn’t prepared for the change from snow to rain and I had an unexpected skating episode as I went out for my dental appointment. How many times does it take to put in a crown? Apparently, it takes 3 times and extra notes from my dentist to get it right at theContinue reading “Makeup Monday”
Quiet Friday
The roads went quiet yesterday morning and I spent it watching life feed road cameras. The roads were covered and the few cars I did see moving along I hoped were emergency workers or those who didn’t need to make a coffee run. Many places did close or had call-ins. Skeleton crews were running theContinue reading “Quiet Friday”
Snow Days!
I survived the smaller amount of snow that started falling Wednesday evening and overnight. My groceries are picked up for the next few days and I continue to peak outside. The snow started falling in my neighborhood around 2:00 pm again. Emergency plans are in place and we all keep waiting up here for theContinue reading “Snow Days!”
New Book Time!
This week I’m trying work through a recommended new book called, The War of Art, by Steven Pressfield. The reason I hit download in my Audible queue was because an entrepreneur that I follow, Abdi Dhaal, said that he read this book to help him get through that feeling of “resistance” that we all feelContinue reading “New Book Time!”
The Big One
After hearing and reading so many dystopian stories, I needed a break and wanted to think of a brighter future. I delved back into fantasy worlds and romance. Then, after recent seismic events around the world, I started to watch a video called “Deadly Pacific”. According to experts our universe is supposed to be aboutContinue reading “The Big One”
Day 2 of Old Stories
Today is Day #2 of working on an old story that needed to be dusted off from your manuscript pile. If you didn’t have time yesterday, then you have another day to get writing. Hopefully, the weekend will give you time to curl up up under some covers and move your plot along. I knowContinue reading “Day 2 of Old Stories”
Old Stories
At the end of the week my gears have to shift with fulfilling orders and restocking my inventory as my brains are being sold. That’s right! My handmade miniature brains in a jar continue to sell out to those using them for board games and decorations. I might not be writing but anything that keepsContinue reading “Old Stories”
Fairy and Fantasy Stories
Yesterday, I was driving to pick up my husband after work and listening to some retro music when my recent creations of fantasy books made out of clay and mythical creatures took over. My mind drifted back to a few old stories that I started to write about a Fae kingdom and a family ofContinue reading “Fairy and Fantasy Stories”
