NaNoFeed: on being a winner at 10K (2017)
So your Third Shift ML did a third-shift all-nighter the other day, which is a very sneaky beast because it looks like Normal Daylight Life, except I’m supposed to be sleeping during the day. Anyway I did some of the … Continue reading
NaNoFeed: There is no One True NaNo and I am Not the Pope of It
Two years ago, I got recruited as a Municipal Liaison for National Novel Writing Month. One of my less visible duties alongside my colleagues is to moderate threads on our regional forum. So of course my first question was “What’s … Continue reading
Writer Tech(nique): the Sandwich Theory of Non-Chronological Composition
No, it is not “start at the beginning and proceed through the middle till you get to the end.” Seriously not. Especially because people hang up with “but what’s the beginning?” I now lay upon you: The Sandwich Theory. How to … Continue reading
Goals: the 2016 Really Short New Year’s Resolution Post
Dearest writer peeps, for 2016 my resolution is 1) #dontselfreject(also, check spelling of hashtags). I have two others: 2) moderation (DONT BE A FRAKKIN WORKAHOLIC) and 3) mindfulness (HEY YOU FELL DOWN THE SAME STAIRS TWICE) Here’s a real-life example of #dontselfreject from the amazing Merc Rustad (story “This is Not a Wardrobe Door” plus story notes) Here’s the whole twitter hashtag – go to town! Be encouraged! The … Continue reading

NaNoFeed: Northern Tour, after the fact (Wilde Roast Cafe)
For the last stop of the night, the Northern Tour came to Wilde Roast Cafe, a venue that holds a well-deserved warm spot in my writerly heart. This is the place where I’ve sipped a mocha and carried on chats … Continue reading
NaNoFeed: Live from the Northern Tour! (Lunch is a many-splendored thing)
So now we’re at Geek Partnership Society here in Northeast Minneapolis, where we have all unpacked our lunch and are nibbling and/or crunching and/or typing/scribbling away. There are cozy sofas and cold northern light out of a Vermeer still-life blessing … Continue reading
NaNoFeed: the little things
