Giving Tuesday is a great opportunity to continue showing our thankfulness by passing those blessings along to others. But just as shoppers do on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday, those who want to participate in Giving Tuesday want to make sure every dollar counts. Not everyone realizes there are ways you can … Continue reading Giving Tuesday

Odds & Ends 10/30-11/12
The past few weeks have flown by! My nephew was born and I got to spend some vacation time celebrating with him and his big sister. I squeezed a little writing in during that vacation time as well, and though the ending I'm trying to write still looks hazier than I'd like, I feel as … Continue reading Odds & Ends 10/30-11/12
Review: Nottingham
Nathan Makaryk's take on Robin Hood is bloody, tragic, and painfully human.
Odds & Ends 10/2-10/15
Over the past two weeks, my family has been eagerly awaiting the arrival of my nephew, who should be born any time now (maybe even by tomorrow morning??? We'll see!), so things have been a little hectic. I've still gotten some writing in during the wait, and I think I've finally got the theme of … Continue reading Odds & Ends 10/2-10/15

Odds & Ends 9/4-9/17
In the past two weeks, I have marked my seven year anniversary of blogging, put a pretty good dent in my Christmas shopping, got a little extra time with my niece, and had some glorious writing days (this past Thursday, that's all I did—minus the time it took to shower—from morning until bedtime). I've also … Continue reading Odds & Ends 9/4-9/17
Blogiversary: Year 7!
The blog turns another year older!
Odds & Ends 8/7-8/20
The past two weeks have seen me cross the finish line with the rework of my story's second act, which is exciting! I'd like to say I could get the whole thing done by the end of this month, but I think the third act is going to require a little more detail work along … Continue reading Odds & Ends 8/7-8/20
Marvel/Disney+ Shows: Worst to Best
My thoughts on the MCU's latest offerings
Odds & Ends 7/10-7/23
The past few weeks have been a little busier than I anticipated, but mostly in good ways. I did get my first act finished up by that first week of July as I had hoped to, made a little progress in my second act, got to have a lot of good family time, and I … Continue reading Odds & Ends 7/10-7/23
Review: Water Falling
The third entry in H.A. Pruitt's Anelthalien series
Odds & Ends 6/12-6/25
The new writing schedule is going well, I think. I feel more productive at least, and I'm certainly becoming more of a morning person (although I may have already been on that track courtesy of my niece and fur-nephews). Getting up earlier is harder for me, but right now, with the sun coming out earlier … Continue reading Odds & Ends 6/12-6/25
