I write this with a sense of responsibility towards my blog. Having deadlines does force me to write more, meaning these reflections are a way to keep my writing muscle working and not lose momentum; it is not a lack of subject matter, but a lack of motivation, which I can only conquer by forcing myself to write....

Although I endeavor to sound coherent and confident my way of writing, it must be clarified that this confidence is mere pretense which I compensate by ways of practice and study of the art of writing as a way of thinking; a pretense akin to my elementary school presentations where I learned to “fake it till I make...

[!NOTE](This is my first submission to a the IndieWeb Fiction Carnival, hosted this month by James. The process for this story was a true humbling and learning journey.

The second day of school. The fortune of living close by means we do not have to rush, but the misfortune means I often loose track of time. So I rush out the door with the children, dropped the first at the school, and biked on with my second to her daycare. After this, I begin the journey to work, looking forward...

There was a draft, a detailed version of the week. The week did not go as designed. My mind feels the weight of having no focus, scattered words, learning, thoughts, ideas; scattered brings no peace. I type this, a entirely different version from what I intended; my daughter home due to stomach flu — she is...

Just discovered HTML5 canvas and I am going down a rabbit hole and I know my brain will not let me sleep with all the ideas... I miss learning something to code and this just woke up the monster.#coding #website #ideasThank you for following my feed! ♥ Leave a reply here.

Sometimes I feel I need to simplify my website... so many areas I do not use and yet they feel part of me, so it is hard to let go... maybe I will redesign the blog again on it's own theme to allow me freedom of design; which is part of what I enjoy about blogging.#website #ideas #blogThank you for following my...

“A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that...
