I’ve finally been feeling *just* well enough that I have been able to restart doing some behind the scenes work on Normal Systems. Nothing too fascinating, just finally pulling some thoughts out of my head and into draft sales pages. One offer not on the website yet will be a day of voxer type […]

The Stab and Twist
There are plenty of moments in life where you get stabbed, but also feel the knife twist inside you. Hopefully they’re all metaphorical and not real, because while the metaphorical sucks, I assume the real also really fucking hurts. I’m still trying to unpack layers of mental crap from my last job. I think […]
July Creative Contemplations
I took my first “real” time off work this year in July. A whole week without the day job. Of course I am casual, so that’s also a whole week without pay, which means digging into what savings I have… but the only time off I took this year was two days between leaving my […]
Swirly Brain Filing
I had the longest, most useless dream(s) last night. If there was any point to any of it, they probably would have been a cool arty film. But there was no point. I was in a city that was familiar(ish), but flet like I was always a block away from any landmark I […]
June Creative Contemplations
Right now I find it both helpful and unhelpful to look back over what I can and can’t do. Over the past 6 weeks I’ve had some kind of post viral relapse and my fatigue is becoming unworkable. Project Updates: My Fictional Life With Kids: Last month I finally got it swapped from self […]
Camp NaNo April 2022
I had plans for Camp NaNo in April. Big plans. I had a 11k romance novel that I was going to rewrite into a cozy mystery. I was reading a cozy mystery series to get a sense of style … and hit a snag. (Yes, of course I decided to rewrite it before I’d […]
Randoms 27
First up, don’t catch covid, kids. I caught it in mid-late March when I was in the emergency department with Ben. I’ve had some level of fatigue for years, because living with chronic pain and discomfort (discomfort is the good days) is exhausting. But this post viral fatigue is next-level. I spent 1.5 hours mattress […]

Own your platforms!
A few months ago I had an idea to offer a content strategy/ideation type service on a particular platform. I wondered where I had gotten up to with it and logged into the platform. I was pretty impressed with how I was nearly done with the offer, so I decided to see if I […]
Not all creative projects bring wonderment
The good, the bad, and the ugly*. The internet still seems to have overwhelm tendencies that it’s only for sharing the good. Born in the 80s, growing up in the 90s, so much of the internet** feels like the annual Christmas letter, where there’s a shining perfection, a glorious story to be told about […]
May Creative Contemplations
I finally did a ton of overdue blog work. things like publishing posts, adding images to them, scheduling them in my social media tool. I’d let it go for months and felt awful. It was hanging over me. I can’t say it’s satisfying to have it done cos it is kinda boring work but it […]
