I hope everyone who participated in NaNoWriMo finished and got your certificate and all the cool discounts. I'd love to give away my 50% off code for Scrivener so if you're interested, let me know in the comments. I have the application and use it every so often, but my go-to is Word. I believe...

A week and a half ago (can you believe we're already in week two of November?), during the week of Halloween, husband, our youngest daughter, and I went to a strings performance called Candlelight: A Haunted Evening. They played spooky songs as well as some classics like The Adam's Family theme song and Ghost Busters... Continue Reading →
Anyone doing NaNoWriMo? I try to finish a manuscript every year, and this year is the same. I'm writing the second book to a published novella. I'm hoping to make this book a full novel. The novella had one main character with a primary secondary character. The novel will have at least three main characters... Continue Reading →
Didn't really listen to anything new in September, just revisiting old songs, so I'll share some of my favorite songs in ASL by Youtubers. "Unconditionally" by Katy Perry, signed by ASLDisney https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAZLBcgRC0A "You Say" by Lauren Daigle, signed by Hannah Mars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzKRN0zlzEE One of my favorites that I frequent every now and then: "I See...

I skipped last month’s play list, but I’ll list it below. I’m not sure how I stumbled upon Empire of the Sun, but I really like their music. I’m sure I’ve heard of their music, but I may have just not known it was them. Anyway, really good stuff. “Alive” by Empire of the Sun... Continue Reading →
Got back from San Francisco a couple of days ago. It was a nice little trip. I'll be sharing some photos later on. This month's music was another trip down memory lane. I've been listening to a lot of DJ Mystik and other EDMs. Except for a few: "Grow Up" by Ian Flanigan. I heard... Continue Reading →
I've been listening mainly to "You Broke Me First," by Tate McRae. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG-erEMhumc Earlier in May, I was remembering "Run" by Collective Soul. It was one of my favorites back in my early 20's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhhjyTJXMC8
Missing early 2K EDM (electronic dance music) so I'm listening a bunch of them. "Ecstasy" by ATB is one of my all time favorites. It was released in 2004 but I think I got hooked on the song a year or two later. This remixed version is what I've been listening to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHqe5D4MsCU "Close to...

I’m late to the game but I’m so glad I came! I watched Kingsglaive Final Fantasy XV and loved it. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. This was something husband and I watched because we ran out of Netflix movies to watch. I know about the Final Fantasy games but have... Continue Reading →
With all that's been going on in our world, I've found myself visiting an old song by Hillsong United that seemed to have helped ease the anxiety. My father-in-law was also admitted to the hospital a few days ago and underwent a triple heart bypass. His situation reminded me of my own dad's heart surgery... Continue Reading →
