Being a writer is one of the scariest things I’ve ever done. It takes a brave soul to put their words out for others to pick apart. I say this as someone who struggles at times with grammar and syntax. You should see when I write something in rilenese, it looks like English, but it … Continue reading Day 63 of 90: Proud to be a creator #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration

Nothing like pain to remind us of all the great things in life! As I write this, I’m dealing with excruciating tooth pain. It really hurts, I mean to the point where I have tears in my eyes. Feel like I was kicked by a mule right in the mouth last night while I slept. … Continue reading Day 62 of 90: Pain and stress #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors

You shouldn’t let yourself be controlled. I see it a lot nowadays, a wife who bows to her husband’s wishes, a man who wraps around his daughter’s pinky, even the mother who gives their child throwing a tempter tantrum what they want. Everyday we allow ourselves to be under the control of someone else. We … Continue reading Day 61 of 90: Have to be you #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration

You know what I love about being an author? I’m beholden to no one but myself. I feel free to do what I want, how I want. My words carry me to other worlds and show me people's differing perception.

I have an author friend that's struggling right now. They're sad, and questioning why they … Continue reading Day 58 of 90: Not Giving In #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration

In the greater scope of life, we have very little control. There are a lot of everyday scenarios that are completely beyond our ability to affect. You can decide what someone else eats for breakfast, but you can’t decide how much they like that food. And yet we live in a society where too many … Continue reading Day 57 of 90: A theory in practice #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration

It was a long night last night. Suffered through the night, twisting and turning, trying to find a way to get comfortable, but it proved too difficult. I decided after a couple hours, that it was time to get productive. I could have wasted my time, lying in bed, waiting for the sun to come … Continue reading Day 56 of 90: No Time Like The Present #IARTG #IAN1 #ASMSG #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration
