Breaking the Tumblr Habit

Breaking the Tumblr Habit

It’s soooo haaaaard… Okay, I’m managing. It’s only when I want to avoid thinking (which, you know–is so rare! Really!) that I want to go to Tumblr. I don’t even contribute content to Tumblr. I just scroll, and reblog what I like or what I think is important, very occasionally commenting but mostly not. Kinda […]

Editing Amid Issues

Editing Amid Issues

I’m still editing Hiro II. I shouldn’t say it like that, really, because a lot of the time that I’ve been trying to edit, I really haven’t been editing. So I am still intending to edit, but doing it a lot more than I was. Or something. Definitely accomplishing more. It’s hard to keep the

Back to School

Somehow, weirdly, this seems to be my 16th year of back-to-school time while actually working in a school? I’m not sure how that happened. But I love where I am, so no matter how weirded out I get, don’t expect that to be changing before year #17. Much of what I’m doing is exactly the

Until I don’t. Lately–for a long time, not just a week–it’s just been really hard for me to get anywhere. I

Good Intentions

Good Intentions

You know what they say about good intentions… I’ve been having a helluva time getting any writing work done lately. I’ve tried anything and everything to do better–work at McDonald’s, go to Panera, favorite hangout of the NaNo crowd, word wars, shutting off the internet, lock myself in my room and snarl viciously at anyone

Is it perfectionism paralyzing me? I don’t usually think of myself as a perfectionist, but maybe that’s the problem I’m having. Maybe I’m fighting a (mild, but serious for me) bout of depression. Maybe procrastination is actually a disease, and I’ve got it. Whatever, but I’ve been meaning to write a blog post for a while.
