Our journey begins…
Happy New Year!
I’ve been putting off starting a blog/newsletter for a while since, though I claim to be a writer, I find these things awfully hard to write.
DISCLAIMER, do not judge my actual books on this writing- I beg you. I promise my real writing is much more organized. This is just my brain dump space- a place to tell you about anything new regarding upcoming novels or projects in the works and to just rant & rave. A place to get to know me as an author, if that’s in any way important to you. No offense taken if it’s not!
That said, lets get down to it.
Incoming Brain Dump:
2026 looms with all it’s threat and promise. It goes without saying that I wish you all the best. But more specifically, I wish you the one thing I’m trying to manifest for myself this year: MOMENTUM.
All my shortcomings, writer-wise, stem from stillness. If I can just keep moving, I think I could get a lot done this year. That means when I hit a wall, it’s time to pivot! No sitting down and pouting about it. Pick a different direction and keep moving. Writers block? Switch to a different WIP. (I have like 3 right now) Still blocked? Read! Watch a movie! Chasing inspiration is just as important as actually creating- something I often forget.
And my to-read and to-watch lists are getting loooooong. Unwieldly, even.
I won’t prattle on too long. This was more or less just a public promise of maintaining some sort of online presence. Something I hear authors ought to do. Suppose if I want to call myself an author, I better start acting like one. Right? Right.
2026 is the year of my first published release. It doesn’t feel real. I don’t know when it will start to feel real short of holding the damn thing in my hand and even then I may take some convincing.
I cannot wait to introduce you to The Spellbound Alchemist, my young adult fantasy releasing this spring. But I’ll save that for its own update.
Thanks for joining me- I’ll try my best not to be a bore.
