Wow! It's hard to believe that the "Wise Sayings" series is about to wrap up. This realization is definitely confirming the fact that time stands still for no one; and more and more, I'm feeling the effects of a sped-up existence. Everything is rush this and rush that. And, no matter the amount of effort … Continue reading Wise Saying #6

Outlining and Self-Publishing
I can't believe that I'm at week 10 already. Can I ask time to slow down a bit? Please? Okay, that was a rhetorical question in which I already know the answer. Time stands still for no man. So, I guess I'd better keep plugging right along with it. Week 9... week 9... what can … Continue reading Outlining and Self-Publishing
Wise Saying #5
The past four Wise Sayings were like epiphanies that floated down to my brain and instantly spoke to a situation I was dealing with at the time or had dealt with in the recent past, resembled a call to action that has been on my mind for some time, or emphasized a better way of … Continue reading Wise Saying #5
My Comeback Week
You can call me the "Comeback Kid", if you don't mind. I pulled myself up by the bootstraps and came back with a writing vengeance in week 8. As you may recall from my report in last week's post, there was a whole week's writing deficit that I needed to make up in week 8. … Continue reading My Comeback Week

Temporary Writing Set-Backs
I'm going to be really transparent with you today. Week 7 at the DOM Writer's Block was pretty much a dud. I absolutely missed my weekly writing goal by a lot. Reason being? There was an unforeseen antagonist that swooped in from Uninvitedland and forcibly put up some substantial roadblocks that negatively affected my ability … Continue reading Temporary Writing Set-Backs
“Wise Saying #3” Quotable
Wise Saying #3
It's been awhile since I put up a Jana's Quotable, so I thought it was about time to spring another one on you. (Pun intended. I don't know about you but I'm so incredibly happy that it's officially springtime. Woo Hoo!) I'm sure there's some variation of my wise saying out there in the atmosphere; … Continue reading Wise Saying #3
Writing Oddities and Organization
I am happy to announce that, with all of the obstacles that seemed to present themselves directly in my face last week, I was still able to achieve my weekly word count goal. I'm not going to say that all my currently typed-up words are in pristine shape with no possibility of revision, but I … Continue reading Writing Oddities and Organization
Wise Saying #2
Today's wise saying is a Toodlez original. Yes, my daughter's written content is the inspiration for Wise Saying #2. Prepare yourself for some awesome profoundness from an at-that-time high school senior. And, here it is... "The unpredictable future and the memorable past depend on the individual in the present." Say that, girl! I still get … Continue reading Wise Saying #2
