February: Why Is February Going To Be So Great?


So I planned on writing something really great and inspiring and amazing yesterday. Another great blog post by me. I even have the beginning of one done from last week at like ten at night when inspiration struck but then I never finished it sooo... But I was sort of busy and the blogging thing ran away from me and now this morning I am tired and my brain is mush. I'm at a slump in my archaeology book where I have to read about all the technical parts of archaeology... like aerial surveys and ground surveys and reconnaissance.
I'm not that tired or unhappy with this chapter but I couldn't resist. I love Lilo.


 I know I need to know about this stuff to really understand archaeology buuut I also just want to get to the fun stuff about mummies and artifacts and sunken pirate ships (cuz ya know that's all archaeologist do. Just happen upon mummy tombs and pirate ships).


So anyways I've been reading that yesterday... last night right before I went to bed and this morning and my brain is fried because of it. So instead of writing something brilliant and writerly I'm just going to talk about February. I'm super excited about February.


February is going to be great. Why is February great? I'm one month away from my birthday! The Big 19! :0 All my shows (except for The Originals) will officially be on. The 100 starts tonight!! I have been waiting too long for it to start again!! All the books are finally starting to come out. I have Roseblood (so good!), Wires and Nerves by Marrisa Meyer and Caravel are being ordered from the library (I got the first holds on them yay!). I predict that my reading slump will be more or less over this month. Oh and I have my first book promotion (more on that later). And the best for last: We're going to DISNEY!!! In just 19 days we will be on a plane heading to Florida and to the happiest place on Earth! I'm going to wear lots of Disney and Disneybound (or try to). I'm also going to take lots and lots of pictures for the blog and go on lots of rides (maybe even a rollercoaster :0). Oh and eat lots of yummy food. We're going to surprise my two littlest brothers plus the oldest of my brothers since he hasn't found out yet a week before we go. It's going to be a blast!
Me waiting to go to Disney


Also it took me all of January to actually finish and be satisfied with the beginning of my gypsy/vampire book. Its turning out to be a little strange... a little unorthodox and probably one of the wildest out there books I've ever written. But it's been fun (and frustrating... very frustrating...). February is the month that I finally finish the first draft! I'm determined that within the next 28 (only 28?!) days that I will finish the first draft and maybe even come up with a title.
Me writing this book.


And is it weird or wrong to switch writing POV's in the middle of a series? Weapon Icean was just Delphi's POV but book two is wanting something a little different. A few bits and pieces of Asher and Liam and Hailey's POV. And I think I really want to try it. Who cares about writing rules right? Right. Hopefully by the end of February I'll maybe have Project Khione a little less messy and a little more put together.


So yeah, that is why February is going to be awesome! Books! Disney! Writing! Disney! And did I mention Disney?!!
*Squeals*


Do you guys got anything exiting going on this February??ļ»æ

March-May Wrap Up!

 Happy Tuesday!  So I had a March/April blog post all written out and forgot to post it! So here's a March-May recap! How has the last three months gone for you? March ended up being a really good month. I turned 25 and had a really great birthday I got to hang out with friends, watch some new shows and am almost done with the Throne of Glass series. April and May have also been really good months for me. God's blessed me in so many amazing ways over the past three months.  I feel bad that this blog has fallen so to the wayside for me. I used to post every week and be so excited and now I just really struggle to keep this updated. I'm starting to think it might be time to let this blog post unless I somehow get renewed motivation/inspiration for it.  March-May Writing:  March was a very good writing month. I just reached 65K in Immortal Circus #3, and despite a few small hiccups, it's been flowing really well. I'm enjoying getting to draft a book after spending ...

Turning 25!

 Happy Thursday!  At the end of February I was looking back at my wrap ups on my Instagram and on here and it almost made me start crying because of how far I've come. It made me stop and think about where I started my 20's versus where I am now. So much as changed and so much of it for the better. Just looking back at the pictures and wrap ups I've done over the past year, I feel like I'm thriving. I'm at a place I honestly didn't think I'd ever get to and maybe that was just me being dramatic or living in on and off depression for so many years, but it makes me tear up and so thankful to see how far I've come since 20.  At 20 I had a best friend I thought I would still be best friends with when I turned 25. I had him and two other friends at 20 and that was it. I don't even remember what church we were at five years ago, but it wasn't the church we're at now and I know I definitely was not thriving there. I felt so behind everyone else my a...

A Goodbye to The Archive Series

Happy Friday!  The final book of The Archive Series comes out next Tuesday. This has been almost three years in the making and I don't know what to say to properly say goodbye.  I started this series in December 2019 with Golden Touch. The idea had been sparked by me watching The Road to El Dorado and having a desire to write a treasure hunt story for most of December. Little did I know that the story of a girl finding a boy with a Midas touch up in the mountains to help her family with their money issues would turn into a five book series and be a huge part of my life for the next few years. I also had no idea that that series would get me through one of the hardest years - 2020. Honestly, God knew what 2020 would be like and He knew I was going to need a story and characters that would make me happy, give me joy and focus on during that very hard year. And for me, that was Amaya and Darren and this whole series.  I poured a lot of myself and my story into Amaya and Darr...
