Home
Every once in while I get this overwhelming sense of needing to go home. The trouble with me and my life is...home changes every couple of years. Was home where I grew up in Nova Scotia with the highest tides in the world, being less than 20 minutes drive away from the ocean at all times and walking home from school through a mall and apple ( Read more... ) -
Another day in Freakin' Paradise...
Okay folks...it's snowing. Spit snow but still. I wore my sandles to the pool for spite anyways. That's me. I'm TIRED OF WINTER!!!! There, that said I feel better. I have one quick question for you all who work out regularly. Are you ever NOT sore? It's a good sore, don't get me wrong, but still. I want to be able to not wince when I put my arms up ( Read more... ) -
Mrs Giggles reviews: Even For Me by Taryn Blackthorne
Okay, I got a good review!!!! This made me happy, in a dancing fool sorta way. I'm trying not to be jealous of my fellow authors, I really am. I just am not good at being unpopular. Hated it in school, now I hate it in writing. And when 5 out of 6 of they authors who have been released on the same day consistently place in the top ten, what's a ( Read more... ) -
Taryn Blackthorne
Okay, so this is a test of my computer skills as well as my posting ability from this nifty button on my toolbar that simply says 'blog it'. I am just shy of being a complete technophobe. I'm getting better, simply because there is no one else to do this for me and I can't afford to hire anyone. The life just isn't that great yet, when it comes to ( Read more... ) -
The stupid things I do #Gazillion and two
Ready for it campers? Here's something to brighten up your day.
So my friend and I decided that after a hard week of teaching we would go to the gym. Don't ask, our logic is twisted and we need to lose weight. Anyhoo, we finish a grueling punishment...er...workout while NOT visualizing naughty boys and girls we'd liked to choke and decide to reward ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Here's the Skinny...
No and ick, but it got me writing and updating. I have a hard enough time working exercise into my normal daily routine, let alone anything that even remotely looks like being naked (there's this great class given by a friend of my, stripercise or something like that I'd love to try. Booty basic training too, but I'm just way too shy).
I printed ( Read more... ) -
Dear Sweet Mother of Mercy could I just choose already?
Okay, I admit, I am not great at posting so regular. I've been trying to do too much in the passed month or so and worrying all about the wrong types of things. I'm no longer house-bound...well, not as much as before. I have very little ice and snow I have to deal with though they are calling for snow this week. I hope not. I am actually getting ( Read more... ) -
ramblings and rumbles
Started 70 days of sweat to try and get myself motivated enough to write something. Ready for how many pages I have? Zip. I don't know what the problem is. It could be that I've chosen the wrong narrator, but I don't think so. She's perfect to tell this story. It could be that I've chosen the wrong place in the timeline to start the story. It ( Read more... ) -
Melancholy Maddness
My mind is wandering, not towards the story that I supposed to be writing, but instead to others. My grandmother's, who I didn't understand until after she died, my mother's (who's story is opening up the further I get from her, and that makes me sad as I recognize the patterns of hers that I'm unconsciously repeating) and my own. Sometimes I think ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: *blushes*
I get the "if only" quite a bit. You know, the "if only you lost weight, you'd be pretty...successful...happy...etc." I am stuck in a rut. Started a new project set in the same world, but different place. Signed up for 70 days of sweat to kick me in the butt and get me moving on it. No dice. I'm just blah...
But I did get the Final Line Edits (FLE ( Read more... )
