It struck me today that everyone who practices multiple disciplines (usually motherhood, work and some kind of hobby) talks about balance. I don’t work the way they say I’m supposed to. You’re supposed to focus on one thing for a really long time and make it really successful before moving on to something else. But [...]

It’s lovely when people actually want to help with a project especially when you ask them to but I definitely see why so many artists go out of their way to get their own spaces. The experience I’m having now starting my film series is definitely enough to make me realise the value of owning [...]

A lot of famous writers suggest that they wouldn’t write if they didn’t have a set time and place in which to write everyday. Now I admit that most of the time I like this too but does it make sense? I’m asking this because the second thing they say is that they are writers [...]

I got a direct tweet from AC first thing this morning saying that my story I posted a few days ago is now fixed so go read it on Associated Content.
I was so excited and I will definitely be posting more fiction on AC as time goes by. Having it fixed so quickly and efficiently [...]

Of all the categories of people you would think would be easy to find online wouldn’t you think it would be graphic novel writers? I mean come on, people!
Maybe I should explain. I am a member of a website called Zhura.com (I wrote about them here if you want an overview) and this website is [...]

I’ve got some celebrating to do today! I’ve finished my second graphic novel script in the series!
It’s only a three part series graphic novel-wise. Actually as far as the series goes it’s three graphic novels and one traditional novel (eventually). So that means that the next graphic novel I write has to wrap up the [...]

If you can’t stick it out through the beginning of something you don’t deserve the rewards of success! I hate that every time I start something I start teetering on the edge of collapse after a few days. It makes me feel as if I can’t follow through with anything!
Ever notice how successful people never mention [...]

I have recently discovered something about myself…I’m obsessed with internet radio. Regular radio sucks comparatively so I thought I would post some thoughts about my two favorite internet radio station players/programs/communities.
Last.fm is a community I discovered about a year ago (this is debatable because I honestly don’t remember when I found out about it). At [...]

So today I had my first taste of Second Life. While I was going through all the tutorials I met someone from Algeria but after I got to Help Island all was well again. I’m also on Last.fm listening to some serious Manic Street Preachers right now. I don’t think I’ve ever heard them before [...]
