Gratitude Challenge

November 2, 2019November 2, 2019 ~ Suzanne ~ 3 Comments

Every November for the past six years I have participated in NaNoWriMo. If you don't know what it is, just Google it. Last year I wrote just over 20,000 words and then just... stopped. This year, out of habit, I was planning on participating, but as October went on my excitement for November to arrive … Continue reading Gratitude Challenge

Nonstop

September 4, 2018September 4, 2018 ~ Suzanne ~ 2 Comments

I've been listening to the Hamilton soundtrack (again) this week. The lines that have always stuck out to me are in the song Nonstop. Do you remember it? How do you write like you're running out of time? Write day and night like you're running out of time? Every day you fight like you're running … Continue reading Nonstop

For the Love of Money

January 18, 2018 ~ Suzanne ~ 2 Comments

Something God has been reminding me of for oh, about the last 15 years, is that we are only in charge of ourselves. I tell my students all the time - your responsibility is you. And God is telling me constantly - Suzanne, your responsibility is you. True confessions: lately I've been feeling the ol' … Continue reading For the Love of Money

2018 – It’s gonna be great

January 14, 2018 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

It's nearly mid-January so I thought it was time I got around to my annual Resolutions post. First, a look back. In 2017, among other things, I... Found a puppy and accidentally fostered him for a whole year. Who wants him? Moved to a new house that I love and adore. Worked three very different … Continue reading 2018 – It’s gonna be great

2017 Goals

January 1, 2017May 8, 2017 ~ Suzanne ~ 5 Comments

This morning I knocked over my mop bucket, spilling dirty water all over the living room. Then I realized that my stove isn't broken like I thought it was for the past week, but that the gas line just wasn't opened all the way. New year, same me. But also, new year, new goals! Well, … Continue reading 2017 Goals

With Her Heart

December 20, 2016December 20, 2016 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

Just a little over four years ago I was a fresh little baby just off the airplane in this new crazy place called the Dominican Republic. I met a lot of new people in my first months in this country and most of them are still part of my life today. One of those people … Continue reading With Her Heart

Beta readers – A request and an offer

February 22, 2016February 22, 2016 ~ Suzanne ~ 6 Comments

The time has come for me to finish my dang book. The one I started three NaNoWriMos ago! I'm feeling a little stuck though, knowing that it's not quite finished but not knowing what to do with it or where to go from here. So I'm looking for some fresh eyes. Would anyone be willing … Continue reading Beta readers – A request and an offer

2016 Goals

January 6, 2016January 16, 2016 ~ Suzanne ~ 5 Comments

  We're almost a week in so I guess it's time to set some goals. Read 100 books.  I was checking out my TBR (To Be Read) list on GoodReads and man that sucker is long. And I just keep adding to it! I'll add any half interesting-looking book to my TBR list. And then … Continue reading 2016 Goals

Here’s the thing about words

August 26, 2015 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

I wrote a sestina. There’s nothing more beautiful than a story, Nothing more meaningful than words. Your story gives life to my spirit. Your story demands to be heard. Whatever is living inside you You must find a way for it to be shared. Experience are meant to be shared. Anything and everything can be … Continue reading Here’s the thing about words

Here’s the thing about my novel

July 2, 2015 ~ Suzanne ~ 2 Comments

Remember when I did NaNoWriMo? Twice? For the same novel? Well it's still not finished, even though I once ambitiously set a self-publish goal for August of this very year. (Which is next month.) In fact, I haven't even looked at my novel for months. MONTHS. Because I was pretty far into the third draft … Continue reading Here’s the thing about my novel
