#WhitWritesHerNovel: Taking the Time to FOCUS.

I have so many high expectations for this novel, even though it is my first one.  I want so much to come out of this experience, that if I only sell one copy (possibly to my mother, lol) I will be happy.  Hell, if I only print one copy and put it on my bookshelf…

OneWord.

One word… One word that seems so simple one word where feelings are created in the soul and manipulate their way to the mental 4 letters, with a complex combination and sequence I say complex because most people see to think this word is one of the most difficult words to say BUT If we use words to…

Words Never Spoken

Everyday I have the same routine. I wake up and make tea and sit near my kitchen window at precisely 6am. Why? Because I know that at approximately 6:05am, u will be walking by my window as you do every morning. We exchange glances, bashful stares and petite smiles. Time stops as our paths cross for…

#WhitWritesHerNovel : My Personal Novel Writing Movement!

I made a few Resolutions this year, which is something I don’t NORMALLY do; mostly because I never follow through. This year, I told myself that it would be different. If I only do 1 thing on this list, I will see it all the way through. One of those things, was starting my first…

Work the Job, Don’t Let it Work you!

This quote never rang more true than when I jumped into the workforce.  I will be honest, I have been pretty unstable as far as staying in one place for long enough to move up career-wise.  I have had 3 different jobs in the past 3 years or so.  In my work experience, I noticed…
