Eggshells

My voice feels so small I try To keep up with it all. All these eggshells I wish I could smash Like the broken Liberty Bell. I get so confused by how I’m feeling defeated and blue. All I do is try and I’m left to sit and secretly cry. I’m not perfect, I knowContinue reading “Eggshells”

One Sided Friendship

I sometimes feel like I’ve disappeared from a friend’s life because they have a new best friend. Things have been weird between us for a couple of weeks now. I don’t fully understand what’s happened, but I don’t like it. It feels unfair. I helped with something and the new best friend did, too. TheContinue reading “One Sided Friendship”

Superman

Grampa. He was my hero, my Superman and my favorite man in the world. He died 13 years ago today. I remember getting the phone call from my mom that morning. After I got off the phone I was packing an overnight bag and as I was crying and digging for clothes, I just keptContinue reading “Superman”

Fingers Crossed

Yesterday I completed my novel. It ended up at 316 pages with 32 chapters and an epilogue. I submitted to the publishers I’ve been in talks with. Now I wait. Their review board has to read it and then decide if they want to take me on. *fingers crossed* This is such a big dreamContinue reading “Fingers Crossed”

If you read my blog and want to be a beta reader, please let me know. I’m on page 290.Continue reading “Thisclose & Beta Readers”

Genres

I’m struggling to find a proper genre for my novel. It covers so many topics. I wish “trauma” was a genre, that’s the ongoing theme in the book. It’s a work of ficition inspired by actual events. It’s not Chick Lit or Romance. It’s not Sci-Fi or Fantasy. It’s not a period piece. It’s fictionContinue reading “Genres”

Rounding the Bend

I think I’m within 50 pages of finishing my novel. My word count is just a bit more than 93,000. This last stretch is grueling. Like, I know I could likely finish it today if I really pushed. I’m stuttering, though. Once it’s completely typed I need to go buy ink and paper and printContinue reading “Rounding the Bend”

Who Do I Think I Am

I’m starting to mildly freak out about my book. Who the fuck do I think I am? What about my story is so damn special? Why would anyone take a chance on it? These questions started creeping into my mind yesterday. This whole time I’ve been under this illusion that my story is unique andContinue reading “Who Do I Think I Am”

I Have Readers

My story on Wattpad has 39 views. Some of these are from people close to me that I share it with, but many of the views are from random strangers that found my story somehow. This is blowing my mind! 39 maybe doesn’t seem like much, but to me it’s incredible! So far I haveContinue reading “I Have Readers”
