Amusement Park Adventure

Current Word Count: 64,735 We have season passes to Elitch Gardens Theme Park and the kids love it. I, on the other hand, go on very few rides. I’m not sure what happened, because I used to ride all the thrill rides as a kid at Six Flags Over Georgia. I cannot even stomach the […]

Home Again, Home Again

Current Word Count: 55,238 We arrived home (Denver) yesterday, and I am still recovering from all the travel. Is that why people say they need a vacation from their vacation? I just need a minute to unpack, do laundry, and get back to normal life. I am thankful that I got the opportunity to be […]

Whirlwind Of Travel

Current Word Count: 51,379 We made it back to Dad’s house from Jacksonville. It was a long road, but worth the adventures. I had a brilliant idea that I would write while riding in the car with my Dad driving. Between traveling to and from Atlanta, Tybee, and Jacksonville, I would have many hours of […]

Twenty Øne Piløts Concert

Current Word Count: 50,168 I planned a week at the beach when I chose to visit family in Georgia. I needed to get away and have a “real” vacation within the trip back to my childhood home. I can be a guilt-ridden person, so if I get an opportunity to travel (not often), I always […]

Beach And Writing

Current Word Count: 48,190 Not far past Savannah, Georgia, you will find Tybee Island. It is a magical place filled with turtles, sand, and beautiful water. I brought my Dad and children to Tybee when the kids were little (toddlers), and it is a different experience now that the kids are self-sufficient (tween/teen). Tybee has […]

Happy Birthday Dad

Current Word Count: 45,862 We drove south from my Sister’s house in Atlanta to spent a few days at my Dad’s home. On the way down, we stopped at Buckner’s Family Restaurant in Jackson, Georgia. It is probably one of my favorite places to eat, because their food is fresh and SO amazing. It is […]

Writer Competition

Current Word Count: 44,124 I NEEDED to share more pictures of my writing companion. Today, our relationship started with a “you need to love me” sort of scenario. Then we were good (mutually respectful) for awhile. Next thing I knew Ma (the cat) told me she didn’t like where my story was going and wrote […]

Travel Day

Current Word Count: 42,967 It has been a long day, but I managed to add to my book (1,262 words). I also made a friend while writing on my Sister’s front porch steps. The cat’s name is long and complicated with a story of some sort, but they call her Ma for short. I told […]

Pure Beauty

Soak that in for a moment…. I get to write in this beauty all weekend. I am a lucky girl. My family and I are at a camp in Gypsum, Colorado. It will mostly be family time, with a bit of writing in-between. Lets see if my word count actually goes up by Monday. Current […]

5:00 AM Does Exist

Current Word Count: 30,760 Generally, I write early in the morning and throughout the day, when I can. I get up at 5:00 AM, give or take 10 – 15 minutes. I do not set an alarm, my body has simply decided that super early in the morning is a great time to get up. […]
