Blog Post 11/22/16

So as you may have noticed, I have not been able to restart again. Considering this may or may not disappoint some of you (which has turned into a crowd of 30, and I thank all of you!), I’m just going to set an official come back as a few days after I come out of school. That way I am able to put as much effort as possible to my school work for the rest of the semester and pour the proper amount of work needed for the story after its done. 

So, I will be coming back for sure with Anywhere on 12/20/16. I know that’s still practically a month away, but it will be worth it. I think a lot has changed over the past few months, and I have learned a lot over the past few months, and that will show. I’ll talk about that in future blog posts, however, because I am starting something else to practice writing. Because that’s what this is all about; I am not only building a portfolio of writing through this blog, but it's also practicing my writing. 

Accordingly, I’ll be doing a sort of journal under the title I tried before but decided wasn’t fit for what I wanted to do. It will be in the form of daily or every-other-day posts called Blog For Thought. I’ll be posting these on my Medium page along with my short stories, but won’t be organizing them on here like the stories. They’ll just be posted on here when they go up, and they’ll just be title links. It’s mostly for my practice, but hopefully people still take an interest and even start a conversation with me or others about my topics. I’m exctied to see what happens.

But for now, that’s all I have to say. Until next time, check things out and spread the word!

Blog Post 11/8/16

It has been a while since I’ve made an actual post. But I have noticed that despite my absence, some of my queued posts helped me pick up some of the slack. That was definitely nice to come back to! 

I haven’t meant to just drop the blog for any reason. I’ve just had a lot of busy work for school and other obligations that are kind of higher on the pecking ladder. But, I will return soon. I’m hoping to dive back in within the next two weeks with letter 10 for Anywhere, and have a couple other things in mind. 

With that said, I’m not dead, and maybe I’ll be back sooner than I hoped! Don’t forget to check out the writing in the meantime, catch up on the series and what not. Until then, cheers!

Blog Post 10/2/2016

It’s hard to believe that October is already here. Honestly, it feels like the year has blown by. But it’s been a good one!

Anyway, I regret to say I’m late yet again with a Letter post. It’s been rough balancing school, work, creativity, etc. I just wanted to make a short blog post saying I wasn’t dead. 

I’m going to be up late tonight doing a bunch of work, and I will get to it. I actually can at least say I’ve had a lot of good ideas for the series lately. 

But that’s really all I wanted to report. Hopefully we will see a post tomorrow!
