I still remember watching the Pirates of the Caribbean films as a kid and being absolutely enthralled. I went through stages of loving things as my younger brother and our friends all got into different genres/movies/books or whatever at the same time. I can't remember exactly when my pirate obsession started, but it was probably … Continue reading I Think I’ve Grown Out of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

A Setback…but With a Bright Side
Well, I might as well just come out with it: I'm pushing back my finishing date for Project Pea. Again. Sometimes, it seems like this WIP has been nothing but headaches. I can't seem to get a firm grasp on it, like it just keeps slipping through my fingers. I keep wanting to get frustrated … Continue reading A Setback…but With a Bright Side
Writing Is Like Baking
I'm not turning into a food blog, I promise. But baking is one of my favourite hobbies, so I can't help but compare it to another favourite hobby, writing. I enjoy both cooking and baking, but there's something extra special about baking to me. I think it has something to do with the fact that … Continue reading Writing Is Like Baking
Where the Star Wars hotel went wrong and what it means for creators

(Here's the link to the article, by the way.) … Continue reading Where the Star Wars hotel went wrong and what it means for creators

Takin’ a Break
Sometimes, you just need to take a break. And sometimes, the break comes to you. I don't have too much progress to report on Project Pea this week because there hasn't been much. I had a lot of things planned last week - a combination of Memorial Day, my birthday, and all of my teacher … Continue reading Takin’ a Break
Forked Tongue
No. 10/100 100-word short stories for my 100 follower celebration! I was suddenly glad that I hadn't cut my hair that morning as sweat trickled down the side of my face from my temple. The hunter’s gaze was unrelenting, but I swore to myself that I wouldn’t look away. “I told you,” I said, trying to … Continue reading Forked Tongue
