Hey all, Sam here. Wow, all right, so we are already halfway through this Bookish Bootcamp that focuses on writing skills and wellness drills. I think I could probably be doing a little better with it, but I'm still meeting my goals, so I'll consider it to be a decent writing progress anyway. Well, with… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 4-10th Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. All right, well we have finished the first week of the PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp, and I figured it would be a nice time to check-in and give a breakdown of how my week went for this whole challenge. Some days are a little more active than others, but I tried to… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp June 20-26 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. I need to get back to writing and creativity. It has felt EXTRA hard for the past 7-8 months, although it has been pretty difficult for the past two years. I keep wanting to tell my stories and to get them down on the page, and they've been simmering in my… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp
Hey all, Sam here. Happy New Year! Well, at least I hope it is a happy new year. I definitely had to prep this post up in advance because this is the busiest time of the year for my job and I didn't know if I would have the time to get anything written if… Continue reading Goals for 2025
Hey all, Sam here. It has been quite the eventful month, even if it has been not so very productive when it comes to consistent writing, but I should have expected as much because November is usually a difficult month to keep creatively progressing. I know that from 16 years of participating in NaNoWriMo. But… Continue reading PaWriCo Week 3 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. When I posted about my participation in a end-of-year writing challenge last week, I believe I mentioned that I wanted to try and do semi-regular check-ins on my progress. We're just over a week in, so I guess let's talk about my progress... Well, I knew Day 1 was going to… Continue reading PaWriCo Week 1 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. Well, as I said yesterday, today I'm going to be talking more about my writing plans for the rest of the year. I was an avid participant in NaNoWriMo for years and years, and was an ML for over a decade, but due to a number of issues, I've parted ways… Continue reading Pathfinders Writing Collective (PaWriCo2024)
Hey all, Sam here. We have reached September, and as we get into the fall months (here in the US anyway), I often find myself thinking to writing challenges. I am happy to say that I have found a challenge to fill the void left by NaNoWriMo...and that is Writer's Atelier's Write Brave Challenge. You… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Write Brave Challenge 2024
Hey all, Sam here. I admit that I went into a little bit of a shutdown in the days after Gen Con. Between all the panels, the running around the convention center and Indianapolis in general, and the travel distance....I needed the time to rest, so I let my little blog streak die. And, I'll… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Inspiration from Gen Con Writer’s Symposium
Hey all, Sam here. Today is Day Two of Gen Con, and it is a busy day of panels at the Writer's Symposium for me. Though I'm writing this up a few days early, I'm pretty sure I'm taking lots of notes at my panels, and so I might share some of my notes in… Continue reading Weekend Writer: August Writing Prompts
