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 am … Continue reading Creative Minds and Depression Or is it A Transition?

It's a new month, meaning it is time for a new writing prompt! It took me a few days to figure it out. I have a list and I had to pick one. I got tired of trying to figure it out so I just went with the first one that brought an image to … Continue reading Drum Roll Please…(February Prompt)

How My First Computer Changed My Writing Journey

February 1, 2025 / Heather / 4 Comments

Daily writing promptWrite about your first computer.View all responses I was fourteen when my family got our first computer. We didn't have internet yet, just the computer and Microsoft Office.

Reviving My Writing Challenge: A Fresh Start

January 15, 2025 / Heather / 1 Comment

Back in the day, when I first started writing this blog I created a challenge for myself. It was to help wake up my writing brain and get it kicked back into gear. I fell off the habit when I realized it was the only writing I was doing at that point. Then I quit … Continue reading Reviving My Writing Challenge: A Fresh Start

2025 Goals: From Poetry to Wellbeing

January 12, 2025 / Heather / 1 Comment

I know how cliché it is to have New Year's resolutions but, what better time to set some goals than the beginning of the year. I don't know when it became such a bad thing to be honest. I love sitting down at the beginning of the year and setting some goals for my new … Continue reading 2025 Goals: From Poetry to Wellbeing

October 7, 2022October 6, 2022 / Heather / Leave a comment

There is a challenge for artists in the month of October called Inktober. I found out about it from someone I no longer talk to, but I found the concept fascinating. Writers have NanoWriMo and I love participating in that, but I do not participate in the other things they have throughout the year. I … Continue reading Writing Challenge: A little Different

Where Have you Been Heather?

June 7, 2022 / Heather / Leave a comment

I might have forgotten about my blog for a minute. I didn't forget about it as much as my brain just couldn't process anything. I didn't want to put my focus anywhere at all. I couldn't even get a lot of writing done. I think maybe it was a little fog of depression trying to … Continue reading Where Have you Been Heather?
