It's December! (Also, writing, life, and A NEW NOVEL WOO)

So. It's December. It's the birthday month of my grandpa, my dad, me, Jesus, and my awesome author friend Jacqueline West. WOO DECEMBER. I'm so excited! I'm going to be fifteen. AHHH HELP.

But yeah. So I started out NaNoWriMo well, but I really slacked off towards the end. I was so busy! AGH. But it was interesting. Heh. I didn't make my goal, but that's okay too. I just got so busy with school and friends and life that I just kind of gave up on my novel. Oops.

Also, speaking of novels, I just started yet ANOTHER novel. So it's called Time and Time Again, and it has to do with time-traveling, dimension-crossing, fate, and a lot of other things. IT'S SO GREAT OH MY LORD *flails* So yeah. I've started a Pinterest board inspired by Time and Time Again, and it's SO AESTHETICALLY PLEASING LIKE OH MY GOSH I LOVE IT.

But yeah. So writing is going well, and I'm drawing a lot, and I'm singing and learning to play the ukulele (thanks again, Becca! (For those of you who don't know, my aunt is lending me her ukulele until Christmas. YAY)), I'm reading a LOT, and life is just happening. It's great.

Life really is great.

No, that is not sarcasm. I'm actually in a happier place now. I'm in a calm spot in this storm of life, even though my life is crazy and busy and confusing at times. But I really am happy. I am at peace for the time being, and I will gladly take this calm moment.

Also, I apologize for the lack of blog posts lately! I've been busy and exhausted and writing and a million other things lately. Life happens, guys. But life has been good to me.

A Welcoming Post of Sorts

Hello there! This is my first post on a new blog- the beginning of an epic adventure. Now this adventure is one you haven't heard of before: my life (in which nothing ever happens and you have to read through my rambles. MWAHAHAHA. xD) and my experience with writing. So this blog is mostly about writing, but there might be some tidbits from my personal life in some posts. I'm going to attempt to update every week... I'm not sure if that's going to happen. xD So I'm currently on the first draft of my first actual novel. I'm trying my hardest to stick with it and not abandon it like I have with so many other attempts, because it has such a promising plot line and it just feels... right. Like with all my other attempts, they were just... BLAH, and this one feels so AWESOME. I feel like I've finally found my voice with this one. And I am definitely going to tell you when I need beta readers! And hey, if you like my blog, maybe tell your friends about i

back from the dead // some life updates, the future of this blog, and new projects

*rises from the dead* Well. I'm alive! It's only been... *checks calendar* oh, you know... almost six years since I updated my blog. Oops. life updates Where to start? My last update was on the cusp of the beginning of my sophomore year, and boy oh boy did a LOT of stuff change. Sophomore year was hectic and quite honestly... I don't remember most of it. As far as junior year goes, I was part of my high school's production of Newsies in November, entered a relationship in January 2019, got voted for prom court... then that relationship turned incredibly toxic and I blanked out for a solid four months at the end of it.  I don't remember most of my senior year, unfortunately.  I broke up with that person in December 2019, started dating someone else in February 2020... And then the pandemic hit. I somehow graduated high school, went to college for a semester and then moved back home. I met my current boyfriend in real life for the first time in July 2020 (it's hi

dear sophomore year (and a few ramblings and apologies)

So let me start off by saying, I am so sorry  for not updating my blog all summer. I finished my freshman year, then had a crazy busy summer, and now it's back to school this Friday. Anyway, with it being a new school year, I'm deciding to freshen up the overall appearance of the blog, as well as try to update every week. So, without further ado, here's a little letter-ish thing to my sophomore year (inspired by the lovely Katie Grace- check her out  here .) dear sophomore year Dear  sophomore year: as I sit here writing this post, I'm still both dreading and looking forward to going back to school. With my sophomore year comes a whole slew of new responsibilities: driving, getting straight A's (HA. No.),   hopefully  getting a job, and a million other things. In less than three short years, I'm going to be done with high school and off to college. I remember when I was younger, thinking I had forever until high school. And look--one year of
