2020-03-30 Balance and Flow
When you put in the work, sometimes it sucks. But man oh man does it feel good when you’re close to the finish line. That’s how I’m finally feeling today after putting myself in a box for the last three days. Not only did I need to crank out some pages for my MFA thesis…

2020-03-22 Super-Sized Sunday Status
It’s Sunday again and I really need to get some steps to boost my stats and get my heart going. Plus, I’ve got a lot to say today so this could get long. Imma start with school. Yesterday I had a two hour phone conversation with my assigned mentor for the semester and though it…

2020-03-20 Best Laid Plans 🤷♀️
Today I’m going to try… really try to get through the last third of my manuscript and revise those pages based on feedback from my mentor. I have a call with him tomorrow. *** I literally wrote that opening sentence 7 hours ago. I was called away by other duties as assigned and now it’s…

2020-02-19 Back to Basics with an Unexpected Twist
Dear Diary… How I have missed you so! It’s been several moons since we had any quality time together and I’m starting to feel anxious and nervous about our relationship. My biggest fear is that in my absence, you have started reading other people. Please say it isn’t so!.. /gasp /swoon But seriously, since I…

2020-01-10 Frying Pans and Forest Fires
One of my goals at Residency is to blog my experience every single day. I almost made it. 8 out of 10 days made their way into the official record. Then things just started moving way too fast and my priorities and desires went elsewhere (appropriately). At the time I thought to myself that I…
