So, uh...guess who's on Wattpad? I hope you guessed me because I now realize that I could be asking that question about...literally anyone else. Because there are definitely a TON of people on Wattpad. Anyway, yeah! I'm on Wattpad! I was trying to post my creative pieces (specifically my nonfiction ones) to Medium, but I …
Happy New Year, y’all. Go forth, kick some butt (metaphorically), and make this next decade the best one, yet.
There’s a lot to update y’all on. First, let’s start with NaNoWriMo. We’re almost a week out from NaNoWriMo, and…surprise, surprise, I didn’t get to the 50k word count goal. That’s okay! I had the odds stacked against me. I started a week into the month, and I took a trip during the last week …

So as I'm writing this, we have literally a whole week left of National Novel Writing Month, and I...kind of feel like it's kicking my butt. But that doesn't mean I'm not still determined!

The day before I left for TwitchCon this year, I was having the worst bout of imposter syndrome. I was putting stickers and business cards into small plastic bags, thinking “is this work even worth it?” Would anyone want those stickers, anyway? Would anyone even want to say hi? To meet me? To talk with …
