Carpal TunnelMarch 27th 2008 05:41
Well I haven't been here in ages and OF COURSE when I want to get back into writing a lot more, I get something that MIGHT be carpal tunnel.
Now doesn't my life just suck?
 A Lack Of DriveMarch 11th 2008 00:47
I haven't been writing much and to be honest a lot of my drive seems to have disappeared with a stressful weekend. I'm sick, lacking smokes, possibly being broken up with, among other things.
It sucks to be me. And when it sucks to be me... sometimes that's good for my writing, other times it's horrible. Right now it's horrible. I have absolutely no drive to do anything at all right now. Even this is effort I'm barely willing to go through with. Thoughts on how to change that?

I am so excited. I've been waiting for something good to come along in my world of writing for a very long time now. And it's starting. I'm going somewhere and I can feel it. It may be a long, hard road... but I've got my foot in the door and I've got the feeling that very soon I'm going to kick it wide open and maybe, just maybe, go somewhere great. What I wouldn't give for that. I love writing. Writing is my work, my passion, one of my only joys. It is maybe one of the lights in my life. A bright one. And I have great hopes for my writing. This is something I can and will do. I wish all you other writers luck-and myself. I'm going somewhere great, I think. My foot's just creeping in the door. Maybe someday soon I'll get an actual poetry collection published... I would love that. It would be awesomeness. So to all aspiring writers: there is hope. It can be done. I'm doing it.
So...February 29th 2008 03:36
In three weeks I'll have nowhere to stay for more than two weeks or so. I'm being kicked out.
But I will continue writing 'cause I'm stubborn like that. I will get a big break in writing, I'm pretty sure of it. And I grow surer every day
Writing Is My WorkFebruary 27th 2008 04:40
Writing is my work, my passion, my joy in life. Writing is everything to me; it is the one thing I have had for six years, the one thing that I rely on and trust in.
And there may be something called a 'day job' but I'm praying I'll never need one. I guess I didn't really see much hope until that publication. Now I'm out searching for more of the same and I'm ridiculously happy
...I win...February 25th 2008 02:30
Thank you very much for your submission! We'd love to include it in the March edition of the Rag.

Blogging 101: Ten Big MistakesFebruary 22nd 2008 16:23
Yeah, I'm low on ideas so here's what I have. Ten big mistakes of blogging, at least five of which I probably committed at least once in my life.
1) Posting once. And then never again. You need to post consistently
So it's not quite every day yet...February 21st 2008 15:29
However I have been writing! I've been writing quite a lot lately, actually, and the other day I sent out two of my poems to small no-pay markets. I need to get my name out there somehow, even if it's just 'I was published by Unheard of Magazine 1', ya know?
I've been very hard-working, studying, looking at things, reading, writing, all sorts of things lately. My school attendance is still lacking and that is simply because I don't care. I don't care about my education. Really
A Little PoemFebruary 14th 2008 13:00
To hold you in my arms forever,
Would be a dream come true; And the only thing that I'm afraid of
BackFebruary 14th 2008 12:41
Have you ever noticed that the best writers go through some of the hardest times? I cannot begin to describe to you how much I have suffered in the last two months. I was fighting with my mother; I went into an open relationship before being dumped by a guy I'm completely head over heels with, I managed to fail all my first semester classes, and I suffered a hospital overnight after which I became severely stress sick for over a week.
All writers go through times like these. And I have written so much and been so inspired during this whole time that I'm almost grateful for the pain. In the end though, it all worked out well
