Mombie – a bit of everything

Starting my day with writing

I enjoyed my evening of writing so much that I decided to start the day with some more writing.

My day felt really grounded today and I wonder if starting my work day with writing contributed to that.

I’m going to experiment with it a bit more and see. 🙂

An evening of writing

I always forget how long it takes me to really dive into my writing.

Sure, I can knock off something light or something with a narrow scope pretty quickly but if it is important, complex, or if the details need to be worked out through the writing process, I need to give it more time.

But I think the thought that it will require more time or more concentration is one of the things that keeps me from diving in.

I know my brain considers ‘needs concentration’ as an obstacle.

So, how can I remove that obstacle and spend more enjoyable time writing?

Fall Shadows

I had fun with how weird mine and Khalee’s shadows looked in the fall sunshine today.

A photo of Khalee, my light haired dog, standing on some grass next to the sidewalk. She is facing off to the right but looking over her shoulder behind us. Our shadows are bing cast onto the grass beyond her making us both look tall but my shadow looks kind of rectangular.

Another fun night of storytelling

I had the privilege of sharing the stage with another group of talented tellers this evening.

I never get tired of hearing different stories and all the different ways to tell them.

It’s an honour to be present for someone else’s telling and it’s an honour to have skilled tellers give you their full attention when it’s your turn.

What a wonderful experience it is, each and every time I am on stage.

I did the thing!

I created a zine page for a piece of flash fiction I wrote a few years ago.

And I submitted it to a Zine that was looking for pieces.

I am so proud of myself for following through.
