The last post was kind of an early update, so I’m going to use today’s post to work myself through some feelings. Lesson learned: If I notice my usual mental filters and thought processes are hindered in any way, stop talking… although it is currently 12:36AM, I am exhausted, and still typing, so maybe my… Continue reading Apologies
So, my last post was about how classes and schoolwork are eating up my time, but they need to remain my top priority. That statement still stands, and I have gotten a number of more projects to complete, so I am going to have to make a change on my blog. I am putting the… Continue reading Temporary Schedule
((Wow, okay, this prompt was so hard to answer just because it’s too vague. I have four different versions that I scrapped before I finally went back to finish an old story. It isn’t a particularly strong piece, in my views, and doesn’t have any strong meaning or purpose – it was an exploration of… Continue reading 7 – A Journey
A Fairytale (part 1) Francis was almost nine years old when he first felt the call. It came on like a fever, swaddled him with an ache he felt down to his bones, and all he could remember was the terror. He woke up sobbing a tuneless song of heartache, and his parents had to… Continue reading 5 -A Story in London

This is the story of a boy and a girl. The two of them were siblings, and they had very different ideas about what… Continue reading 4 – Another Challenge
Seeing as my Beauty and the Beast retelling ended up so different from my initial idea of it, I thought this would be a good opportunity to give (and gain) some insight into how I write some of my stories. Each of my stories has its own process, but when it comes to short stories, this… Continue reading The Writing of the B&B Retelling
(With the live-action coming out soon, I thought it would be interesting to read the original Beauty and the Beast and explore its core themes, as well as how those themes would change if I altered the gender roles of the characters. And then it just ran away from me. This initial structure/writing style is based upon… Continue reading 3 – Retelling a Fairytale
(Not my best, but that’s my fault, so I’ll have to live with it. This ended up less of a complete enclosed story and more of a test-run of a future project, but I’ll have to put it up since it’s all I have, ahaha.) Sunrise Thea lived in settlement where the walls to the… Continue reading 2 – Rising to a Challenge
At the suggestion of my beloved father, I have invested in a bluetooth keyboard so that I can continue to write efficiently with my phone. However, it is not here yet, so this post is also being delayed;;
(Alright, so I have been trying to fix a broken registry in my windows laptop for five days now an it is still freezing up and being a general pain. However, I do NOT want to start this challenge with a no show, so guess what? I am writing on my cell phone!!!) (Also here is proof of… Continue reading 1 – A New Beginning
