Hubby and I are finally watching Sonic boom together and I gotta say, this was a terrible idea. Something about that scarf...my childhood crush on Sonic is coming back with a vengeance

I've been rocking with He Falls First for over 10 years, apparently. (The rest of this questionnaire is one hell of a time capsule. Someone call and check on 18 year old me)

I dropped yesterday, but I came back swinging today!

Chapter One is officially FINISHED. On to chapter 2, where everything goes wrong.

It really is quite touching.

I haven’t seen something bring people together like the UnitedHealth CEO assassination since the release of Pokémon Go.

I finally got Spotify! I thought Spotify wrapped was only for Premium users, but now I know it's for free as well, woohoo! As you can see, I am already having WAY too much fun

We got bonus words today babyyyy! Total count: 3,641.

My word counts up until yesterday! The goal is 725 a day, but that 1,344 helped give me a bit of cushion. But hopefully I can go back to my goals starting today!

I missed the goal yesterday by 88 words, but it's ok. We'll hit today (hopefully.

Happy "Patricia started the second draft of the Heart's True North" today if you celebrate! 🥳

Resolution by Alien Zombie was a Nick/Ellis L4D2 fic I read YEARS ago and I still quote and think about it daily. "I fucked a boy in highschool and I liked it" is the most iconic piece of Nick dialogue I have ever read in my life.
Assuming all fanfiction is written poorly really just shows you've never been caught in the chokehold of a 150k slowburn that changed the course of your life at 2:40am written by someone whose username has 4 Zs in it and they only wrote one fic and then vanished like an ethereal legend.

This is your reminder to get a library card. They have so many services and basically all of them are free.

For those who don't know, I'm taking part in the Pathfinder Writing Collective, and this is an update on my main WIP, The Heart's True North. I've never made it this far before, this is unexplored territory. Wish me luck! #writing #writer #writingcommunity

I also told myself I was going to work on outlining and plotting the second draft for The Heart's True North, but it feels so damn daunting to just think about it so I didn't. LMAO

Maybe tomorrow?

I'm still struggling for a fictional town name, but the Contemporary Romance Series with all my OG OCs is coming along great. I have two books, and possibly two more. But the question is, do Jake (MMC of one) and Jackie (MFC of the other) stay siblings or nah.

I stopped and remembered, i'm doing this for me. I'm doing this for a younger me, whose only escape from bullying were the stories in her head.

In other writing news, I finally made more progress in Cardless. Ended with a perfectly rounded 1,500 word count, and that felt good to achieve. I've been plotting for the last week, it felt good to WRITE again.
