Welp, yesterday was Christmas which means my writing year effectively ended yesterday. I easily broke 100, but I didn't hit my yearly goal of 200 poems which is honestly pretty disappointing. The last few years I've been writing more and more, but last year I just got lazy and caught up in other things.. but that happens. Moving on though, with the end of one writing year starts another and this means I've got a bunch of writing I need to do! Oh boy, it never ends does it? Ahh well, it's enjoyable at the very least.
The new year is coming up, so I wish anyone who happens to be reading this an early happy new year! I expect I'll probably end up breaking all my resolutions as usual, but we shall see! Uhh, goal setting is it? Well, I wasn't able to hit 200 so maybe I'll step it back to 175 poems from now until next Christmas? I think that's doable if I can regain my consistency and keep at it. 175 sounds decent, let's try that!
As always, those of you who pay attention to my writings and ramblings are greatly appreciated. If it weren't for you guys I don't think writing would be nearly as much fun as it is. It's always nice to know that people enjoy my messing around with words, meanings, and the lot. It brings me a certain measure of satisfaction I suppose. Woah, this went longer than I thought it would.. oh well, cheers guys! I hope this coming year is a great one for you all!

Well, well, well.. look who's back.
Well, shit. Really, it's been a long time. Hell, it's been over a year since I've uploaded anything and I'm sorry for that. I've not had a computer but that's a sorry excuse for slacking so much in regards to my writing. This time the ball was a bowling ball dropped through a hundred story glass building. Oops!
Anyway, I'm gonna be putting a conscious effort into writing more often and uploading. I'm actually doing the same bit with my singing, which I might share at some point because why the hell not? It'd be stupid to abandon my passions, so why not share them?
I apologize to all my followers, to the ones who've followed this profile bec
Things have been a little crazy
I've been neglecting my writing this year, and that's honestly pretty disappointing. But I've been busy with school, classes, and a couple practicums. I'm done those now, so I'm apparently a mental health worker. I'm not quite sure what I'll be working in yet, as I've got to find work. I thought finishing would leave me with more free time, but now I find I'm wrapped up in a different kind of busy. Being an adult is a pain that way sometimes.
There's been a lot going on, but I'm trying to be more consistent with my writings and the last few days I've been successful with that. I hope to keep it going, but I suppose we'll have to wait and see
20,000 views?!
I'm honestly a little surprised, I never expected to get this kind of exposure over the course of three years. I signed up to dA in order to keep track of my poetry and see what other artists had to offer and I've been able to do both, but I never really expected to amass followers or get page views or anything like that. I suppose my poetry is kinda like that too, I never set out to write 600+ poems, it just kinda happened.
I know this isn't going to reach everyone who's popped by my page or looked over my poetry, but thank you. Followers both new and old, thank you. It's been a lot of fun, and I've still got a long way to go. It should be
My goal for this year?
It's been a while since I've written a journal entry, so this is long overdue. As I writer I write from Christmas to Christmas as opposed to starting up once January 1st hits. Why? It's just a quirky thing I've decided to stick with. This past year I was able to write 200 poems, which is something I'm rather proud of.
This year though, I'm not entirely sure how many I plan to write. Over the past three years I've increased my output by 25 poems each year, and I likely won't be able to keep upping my production every year. I've gone from writing 150 to 175, and finally 200 poems this past year. That's a lot of poetry.
This time around I'm go

Happy New Year to you, too!
2013 was one of those productive yet not productive years for me, too. I finished my novel's manuscript, but then realised how awful a particular plot line was and, in order to remove it, I had to rewrite the entire thing. But it was good, because the book's evolved into something so much greater now, with the rewrite.
I wish you the best of luck with all your writer goals! Even though it didn't meet your goal, one hundred poems is still a lot, and something to be proud of. ♥
