Nothing

I tried for a while to be consistent in posting blogs. But, like any other undiagnosed neurodivergent, schedules are hard to stick to when I’m the only one enforcing them. Serotonin doesn’t lie within a new blog post most days – it lies in playing cozy farm sims or completing daily challenges on a mobile…

First Person

As stated before, the second novel of my published author career has been giving me some real guff. I like the contents. I think what I have written is good, but there’s been something off about the 31,000-ish words that hasn’t been working. So, like any author, I turned to my agent partner and asked…

Let’s Talk About…

Yeah, you know the lyrics. “Sex, baby. Let’s talk about you and me.” While I’m hopeful I don’t have to explicitly outline this is an Adult Blog For Adult Eyes (and by extension my book is For Adults), there will be some sexual content discussed here. It’s a little inevitable when I chose to start…

Inspiration In The Big Easy

Ten years is a long time. Maybe not in the grand scheme of life and the existence of the universe, but I’ve not had a good many things last ten years. To celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, the mister and I went to New Orleans for a few days. We did a couple museums, walked…

Pushing It

Last year, I wrote well over 200k words. From perhaps February to October-ish, I spent most of my free time writing (and editing). Publishing a whole ass novel has been so rewarding, but it’s no wonder that I’ve hit a bit of a wall when it comes to the follow-up to Indelibly. I know I’ve…

Control What You Can

Things are beyond difficult right now. And a lot of it is out of my control, which I learned a long time ago to just accept and not get too worked up about. But it still sucks and it still makes me yearn for something I can control. Like organizing. Organizing my home, organizing my…

Stalemate

It’s probably the undiagnosed ADHD, but I’ve never had a set schedule for… well, anything outside of school/work/sports. It’s a wonder I ever got any homework done in school. Or finished any papers. Of course, this carries on to my writing habits. Despite years and years of writing, I’m either hyperfocused on a story or…

Resistance

I was driving home from work a few nights ago and got progressively frustrated with the state of things. I haven’t written since the 14th, and have no desire to. Lemon Pepper went into heat, so things have been tense at the house because she won’t stop marking and yowling and pacing and she has…

Booksky Boom

It seems as though the TikTok ban, temporary though it is, sent a lot of people to other social media platforms. And of those people, a good portion seemed to be BookTok folks. I say this because the tag BookSky has taken off on social media platform Bluesky (where you can find me at elizanixauthor,…

Life Imitating Art

It’s interesting, sometimes, how we use the above expression to explain away experiences that range from the surreal to the mundane. In this instance, it’s about relationships both real and fictional. Perhaps it’s because I saw it coming for some time. The fact is, there was this gap between my girlfriend and I since July…
