One writer's journey through life and blogging as I try to rebuild a writing routine. Hopefully I will succeed, since, after all, "everything in life is writable about."

Prompt: “I do my best thinking at night when everyone else is sleeping. No interruptions. No noise. I like the feeling of being awake when no one else is.” ~ Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

When do you do your best thinking?



I used to love writing at night. I was such a night owl. But as time has gone on, I've begun to discover that I prefer early morning to write, as soon as possible after scripture study. The later the day goes on, the harder it is for my brain to think about and focus on my writing. So I've needed to build my days around getting as much work done as possible in the mornings and early afternoon.

Maybe that's why I've been struggling so much this month to plot my story and build my world for NaNoWriMo. I haven't been working on it first thing in the mornings. Can I fix that during this last week and a half of October?

Prompt: October
“The trees are in their autumn beauty, The woodland paths are dry, Under the October twilight the water Mirrors a still sky.”
William Butler Yeats
What do you think of October in general and what do you expect from October 2023?


I am so happy that October is here at last. The summer heat is still hanging around, but I'm sure that will begin to change soon. Rain is expected this week, which is supposed to drop the temperatures into the 70's for a few days. Not long enough for me, but I'm sure the temperature will catch up with the time of year. Maybe I haven't been outside much so far, but I haven't even seen the colors begin to change.

Still, I hope for a happy, successful October, both in writing and in business. It is Preptober, and I'm finally able to start working on prepping a book for NaNoWriMo. Fingers crossed that I can actually get farther than just a few thousand words this time around. I've struggled writing for almost two years now, but I think I'm finally starting to come out of it.
