Creative Minds and Depression Or is it A Transition?

April 24, 2025 / Heather / 1 Comment

I started this year with big dreams of blogging all the time. I was going to write book reviews and read more indie authors. I was going to write all the stories and I was going to publish a book of poems. Then depression grabbed me by metaphorical balls and wouldn't let go. I am … Continue reading Creative Minds and Depression Or is it A Transition?

Nervous? I’m Not Nervous! You’re Nervous!

April 22, 2025 / Heather / Leave a comment

Daily writing promptWhat makes you nervous?View all responses Everything! A better question is what doesn't make me nervous. Though, I can't think of a single thing that doesn't make me nervous. Even books make me nervous because you never know when a book is going to break your heart or set off an existential crisis. … Continue reading Nervous? I’m Not Nervous! You’re Nervous!

Reconnecting with Reality

April 20, 2025 / Heather / Leave a comment

Daily writing promptHow do you use social media?View all responses I sometimes forget I have social media. I scroll through Facebook to keep up with family and friends and to see random memes that make me laugh. I use TikTok like it is my lifeline, but I don't post anything on it anymore. I used … Continue reading Reconnecting with Reality

There is No Balance…

April 11, 2025 / Heather / 3 Comments

Life has been so weird lately. I have all these things I had planned on doing and I had planned so much that I planned myself into a slump. The year started out great. Then it was too much. I shut down and ended up doing the bare minimum. The worst part about it, is … Continue reading There is No Balance…

Games are Rotting my Brain

March 21, 2025 / Heather / 1 Comment

Daily writing promptWhat do you wish you could do more every day?View all responses This is an easy one. Write! I wish I had time and energy to write all day every day.

Comfort Movies and Shows: They Never Get Old!

March 13, 2025 / Heather / Leave a comment

Daily writing promptWhat movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?View all responses I have comfort movies and shows. I have seen more than I can count, one show and one movie! I feel like people will laugh at me for one and probably not really know either one of them. The … Continue reading Comfort Movies and Shows: They Never Get Old!

The Cup Dilemma: Why I Have Too Many

February 25, 2025 / Heather / Leave a comment

I have a cup problem. I think it seems to be a common problem for a few people and I kind of want to figure out where it all started. I have too many cups. Cups that I drink out of on a daily basis. I have a cup for plain water, a cup for … Continue reading The Cup Dilemma: Why I Have Too Many

The Dullness of Normal Life

February 22, 2025 / Heather / 1 Comment

Daily writing promptWhat bores you?View all responses Life. Life bores me. Just hear me out before you call my therapist. I read so many books and write so many stories that normal everyday life is just...boring. There are no dragons to fight or ride. No vampires to track down and manipulate into turning me. There … Continue reading The Dullness of Normal Life

The Fragility of Digital Ownership in Reading

February 18, 2025 / Heather / Leave a comment

I have a very extensive library of digital books. Most of them were either free or 99 cents. If I can get a hard copy of the book cheaper than the digital book, I will get the hard copy because it doesn't make sense to pay more for a digital copy. I also frequent second … Continue reading The Fragility of Digital Ownership in Reading

The Art of Spontaneous Storytelling

February 17, 2025 / Heather / 8 Comments

How do you write? A question for anyone writing a story. How do you write? Do you plan everything out and then write the story, or do you sit down and let your fingers lead the way? I have always been the type to have a story idea and just start writing. I hate planning … Continue reading The Art of Spontaneous Storytelling
