Hey all, Dani here. Well, another week has come and gone, and that means I'm here with another Weekend Writer post. I need to try and get some of these read through and prepped in advance, which will hopefully be a bit easier once I've finished with this book. It's pretty chunky compared to the… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Narrative Design, or Chapter Four of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer

August Wrap-Up and September TBR
Hey all, Dani here. Another month of 2019 has come and gone. It was a pretty decent month overall, though I still feel like I was a little slumped in the reading area for the month, which is silly, I know. I still did read a good number of books, but I just feel like… Continue reading August Wrap-Up and September TBR
Weekend Writer: Beginnings and Endings, or Chapter Three of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Hey all, Dani here. I didn't realize what I was getting myself into by doing my Weekend Writer posts this way. For those first couple of chapters it was like 30-40 pages, so not that much material to cover. Well, hello chapter three, thank you for changing all of that for me. Yes, this chapter… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Beginnings and Endings, or Chapter Three of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Weekly Wrap-Up (28)
Hey all, Dani here. Man, it bums me out when I have small weekly wrap-ups. I mean, I know I'm still doing decent reading overall, but after the past few months, I feel like this month has been kinda slow. Realistically I can look at my list of books for my wrap-up and it actually… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (28)
Weekend Writer: The Ecosystem of Story, or Chapter Two of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Hey all, Dani here. If someone had told me years ago that I would have a decently successful blog posting content every day, or that I would have a dedicated blog series focused on the craft of writing and inspiring people to write, I don't think I would have believed them. Sure, I've always dreamed… Continue reading Weekend Writer: The Ecosystem of Story, or Chapter Two of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
I Need Your Help. Please and Thank You.
Hey all, Dani here. Sorry to break my typical scheduling of posts, but I got some pretty exciting news at work today. I will be getting an interview for a job that would be pretty much perfect for me. It is an office (HR-ish) job at the factory, and one of the primary responsibilities is… Continue reading I Need Your Help. Please and Thank You.
Weekend Writer: Inspiration and the Creative Life, or Chapter One of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Hey all, Dani here. Welcome to the first actual post of Weekend Writer. I've been so nervous about really diving into this series on my blog, but I think it will be good for me, and hopefully you all get something from it as well. It would be really cool for all of us who… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Inspiration and the Creative Life, or Chapter One of Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Weekly Wrap-Up (26)
Hey all, Dani here. Holy smokes, this is the 700th post I've written and posted for this blog. That number doesn't include the posts by Damian or Signy; just mine. I'm not going to lie: this feels like a pretty big accomplishment. I never dreamed that this blog would do this well, and I'm constantly… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (26)
Weekend Writer: Introduction
Hey all, Dani here. In all honestly the Writer's Symposium at Gen Con had the opposite effect I was hoping for. There were a few interesting things I learned, and it was cool to meet authors who either work as a writer full time or who have a day job and then write on the… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Introduction
Weekly Wrap-Up (25)
Hey all, Dani here. I feel like today's wrap up isn't all that exciting of a post. But then again, most of my excitement from the past week centers on our trip to Gen Con, and I've already given you pretty much all the details from that (Day One, Day Two, Day Three, Day Four).… Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up (25)
