Target dollar spot glitter; an old Ali Edwards journaling card; handmade mini envelopes I love crafts. It's a blanket statement because I tend to bounce around from one thing to another: knitting, quilting, cross stitch, and, most recently, watercolor. I love having options when it comes to expressing my creativity and personality, and sometimes I just want the challenge of something new or less frequently tried. But--I also still adore my … Read More

nanowrimo 2020 | surivival kit + rewards
November is closing in on us, fellow writers. Like I mentioned previously, part of my prep for NaNoWriMo is setting myself up with a so-called "survival kit" and planning out some rewards to keep me motivated as I go along--because no matter how exciting it can be to write a whole-ass novel, it can also be a slog, and those rewards will for sure help to keep me going on the days I feel stuck.

dilettante.
I've been dabbling in photography off and on for years now. It's one of my eight million and one hobbies that I never quite seem to practice consistently, which I'm mostly okay with at this point. Maybe I should focus on just one to become exceptional, but I like dipping my toes in a little bit of everything. I don't have the attention span to focus on one. The only time this tendency becomes an issue is when I'm writing because I can't seem to … Read More
