“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
Structured Approach to Writing
Week 5 was all about the organization. I pretty much stopped writing this week and got my stuff in order.

Stop Controlling the Narrative!
Week 4 of my book was more on point than week 3. I gave myself week 4 as my last 7 days of unorganized chaos before getting into a definite writing rhythm and I totally needed every bit of this time frame to really create some personalized structure for what I need to accomplish through … Continue reading Stop Controlling the Narrative!
Don’t Hold That Sneeze!
I just completed about 2 weeks worth of letting my winter cold run its course, and I promise you that I put up somewhat of a fight. Over the past few years, I've learned not to be so quick to reach for the quick fix when it comes to applying healing balm for what ails … Continue reading Don’t Hold That Sneeze!
Learning How to Write
I'm going to start this discourse off on a positive note and say that Week 3 has been a slightly productive week. I've put a tentative schedule together for the writing of the book, which will include 2-hour work days on Sunday through Tuesday and 30-minute work days on the remaining days (except for Saturdays). … Continue reading Learning How to Write
The Trouble with Writing
I don't have trouble when it comes to getting written content on a page. My challenge is finding the time to actually write. The title to this post could very easily say something like The Trouble with Time-Management in Writing. Herein lies my predicament. How could I be experiencing a road block so early along … Continue reading The Trouble with Writing
