Summer Writing

August 7, 2018April 21, 2020 ~ mindyqs ~ 3 Comments

This summer has sucked for writing. Absolutely sucked. I have gotten nothing done. I wanted to have a draft of my book finished by the end of this month, but I am miles away from that now.

Billy Collins is my favorite poet (aside from Jim Danger Coppoc whose poetry I love for totally different reasons). I am writing for NaNoWriMo, as I have mentioned and I was looking for a snippet of poetry that would pop into the head of my hero and help her put the whole mystery together. But … Continue reading I love Billy Collins

NaNoWriMo

November 2, 2015 ~ mindyqs ~ Leave a comment

I wasn't much of a writer in high school.  I did my English essays adequately. I daydreamed out stories in my head. And it is true that my senior year Chem grade was saved by my essay on Louis Pasteur. But I was going to be a veterinarian so I didn't really focus to much … Continue reading NaNoWriMo

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain

simple Ula

I want to be rich. Rich in love, rich in health, rich in laughter, rich in adventure and rich in knowledge. You?
