Morning Freewrite
Here We Go, Again…
Goal: To blog every day this week (yes, I know it’s a holiday), starting with this Monday morning freewrite.
I got out of bed and had a million things running through my head: my review today, the work I need to get done, the laundry I didn’t fold. Then I took the dog for a walk. [...]
One More Time
Okay, I’ll try this again… I’ve been slacking on my freewriting lately and apparently I haven’t posted in almost a week. Ooops!
What have I been up to, you ask? Well, I took a few days off of work. I’d call them “mental health days” but that’s lame. Basically I had a migraine that probably could have [...]
Let’s Talk about Stats, baby!
I was going to do another morning freewrite when I logged onto wordpress, checked my blog stats (as I do obsessively 3 or 4 times a day!). So I decided to scrap the freewriting idea and focus on the sexiest idea I could think of–blog stats!!
Even before logging in, I was anticipating what I would find. I’ve [...]
I’m looking at…
I stole this idea from http://simmonssays.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/writing-exercise/. I’ll totes give her credit.
I’m looking at 30. Yeah, that’s right. I’m getting fucking old. One of those legendary stories growing up was how, at the age of 3 or 4, I said that Madonna should retire from being a singer because she was 30. Because she was ancient. [...]
It’s been a while…
I haven’t done one of these freewrites for a while. As usual, I have lots of stuff going through my head.
My dog has to have surgery.
I hope I’m making the right choice.
I don’t have any money.
How did I manage to piss away my entire stimulus check without knowing it? I
‘m trying to do some [...]
I’m a jackass
The topic of this mornings freewrite is what an ass I am…. I went out the other night with work people and got ridiculously drunk. Then I sent some ill-advised text messages/emails. Then sent apologies the next day and haven’t heard back. I’m probably being paranoid, but I just feel like I’m making a complete [...]

I stayed in last night. Finished packing, went to bed early. Then my cousin called and wanted me to come out. I don’t get to hang out with him much, but I was being good… then he kept calling. So I went out. At midnight. The night before I had to leave. Ugh.
Pretty fun time. [...]
Saturday freewrite
Unfortunately, I’ve been up for over an hour already, but still haven’t managed to get anything done. And I have TONS of shit to do.
Last night was fun. Work peeps. Regular peeps. Friends. Friends of friends. I didn’t do as good of a job “connecting” as I’d hoped, but-hey- I had a good time.
Except next [...]
Really?
I read a blog post* yesterday that said in order to determine whether a story is good enough to sell (it was a post about freelance writing) you simply have to guage people’s reactions to it when you tell them. If they say “Really?” it’s something that might be publishable/useable.
I wish I had saved that link [...]
Freewriting Frenzy
Monday. Ugh. I considered calling in, but that will just throw off my productivity for the rest of the week. Plus, I’m pretty sure I can’t spend another day on the couch. I wasn’t even tired last night so I took some Tylenol p.m. I went to sleep, but it wasn’t exactly “quality” sleep. Oh, [...]
