Summer Thoughts

Posted on July 9, 2019 by ecn • Leave a comment

I don’t know if that’s a good title. It sounds more like I have thoughts about summer, whether that’s the sweltering heat and humidity or just not being in school. Maybe about the fact that technically I’m in the summer of my life as I’m to old for spring and too young for fall. Oh … Continue reading →

Reflections on Being a Student Again

Posted on July 2, 2019 by ecn • Leave a comment

I’m about halfway through (maybe a bit more) my online class and though it’s not the first class I’ve taken online, it’s definitely the most academic one since finishing my degrees. And I’ve learned some interesting things about myself. I am an overachiever. I was not when I was in high school, college, not even … Continue reading →

When Did My Summer Fill Up?

Posted on June 8, 2019 by ecn • Leave a comment

It’s been over two months since I posted last. For awhile I did well being weekly on posting, but then the last two months of school happened. Everything goes into hyperdrive and now that it’s over, maybe I can get back to this. Because the summer is chill time, right? What did I do to … Continue reading →

Writers’ Groups and You Should Have One (or be a part of one).

Posted on March 4, 2019 by ecn • Leave a comment

Is it writers group, or writer’s group, or writers’ group? Does anyone know? Just this past Tuesday, I closed a Facebook group by removing all those who were members, and then myself at the end. That’s how you delete a Facebook group if you wanted to know. This Facebook group represented a writers’ group I’d … Continue reading →

Book Series I Intend to Finish (someday)

Posted on February 18, 2019 by ecn • 1 Comment

So to add to my earlier post about New Year’s Resolutions (only the book ones cause those are the only ones that matter), I thought about the books I have that are now completed series (none that are ongoing will be included in this list) that I just stopped reading, or forgot about or for … Continue reading →

Let’s Do That Resolutions Thing (Book Version)

Posted on December 31, 2018 by ecn • 1 Comment

Resolutions about books, because I feel like I might actually complete said resolution if it’s about books. I’ve been thinking about this so so long. Which speaks to the excitement of my life. So there are five books from my high school/college years that I did not read/complete. I think all of them are just … Continue reading →

The Exciting Weekend Plans of Me

Posted on December 15, 2018 by ecn • Leave a comment

So, i just finished my first edits of the new Shift (to coincide with the new Phase). I have some more to do; bigger stuff with order of scenes, and some questions that need answers threaded through, but the more tedious stuff is done. And school’s not even out for break yet. Two more days … Continue reading →

It’s actually October…

Posted on October 29, 2018 by ecn • Leave a comment

I wish I could say that my time away from this blog has been oh so exciting and therefore, I have a lot to tell. I wish I could say that. It hasn’t been uneventful, by any means. School has been a lot more involved. For the first time, I’m teaching three different literature classes … Continue reading →
