A to Z Challenge Theme: A Turn of Phrase

Welcome to the reveal of my theme for the A to Z Challenge!

For those who may be new to this, The A to Z Challenge (http://www.a-to-Z Challenge.com/) is a blogging challenge where you post once a day (except for Sundays, with the exception of the 30th this time) and each post must correspond with the days letter.  For example, your first post would be A and so you could write about air, anteaters, April (the month or Ludgate).  It's up to you!

Now as for themes, they are not required. I like to have on though, because it keeps me on track and they're fun! So without further ado, my theme is......

A TURN OF PHRASE!

Do you have butterflies in your stomach?  Do you wear your heart on your sleeve? Each of my posts will be a short flash fiction based on a phrase that you may have heard used to describe a feeling or action in a more colorful way.

I'm looking forward to getting started!

Week of the Writer Wrap Up

A glorious week of reading, writing, and relaxing has come to an end.  I'm currently posting this on break from work actually.  A severe hit from reality if you ask me.

But that doesn't mean that I have to completely live in the real world!  (Ok, that sounds like I'm in denial.  I'm not in denial.  Promise.  Hey.  A girl can dream can't she?)

Later this evening I'll be posting the reveal of my A to Z Challenge theme!  I had the week to come up with the letters and I have most of them down.  All that's left to do is write the posts.  I'm looking forward to it and checking out everyone else's posts too.

Because working doesn't mean I can't daydream, you know.

Week of the Writer: Day 4

It's another day in the Week of the Writer. This one will be short. I'm currently taking up post in my cousin's place having a Harry Potter movie marathon. Currently on 'Goblet of Fire'. I'm winning at the nerd game right now.

I did do some writing yesterday. Not much but it was better than nothing. I imagine that very little will get done today so I'm hesitant to set a goal. Perhaps I'll make a point to write some more and share a line or two tomorrow.

Until then, Harry's fighting a dragon. Better go.

Week of the Writer- Day 2 (Hotel Edition!)

Is it really Day 3?  I think it's technically Day 3.

Week of the Writer continues to be successful!  I only have 7 letters that are not filled in for the A to Z Challenge. Which is really good for me.  I could go ahead and get started on some of the posts, which isn't cheating right?  My NaNoWriMo trained brain wants to say it is but I don't think it is for this challenge.

I haven't written anymore on my story, but I hope to change that right now.  It's currently 6:24 in the morning and I'm sitting in the breakfast room of a hotel working like an actual little adult. (Because I am an adult... But not little.)

I'm actually really proud of myself.  If I didn't get up then I probably wouldn't have gotten my post done by now and I would have rushed it later.  I also wouldn't get any writing done. (Because hotel beds equal a sleeping Black Hole.)

I'll admit that this makes me a little self-conscious though.  Not sure why but thinking anyone is watching me do something when I'm not with someone else makes me nervous.  (Being in my pajamas still might have something to do with it.)  I really want to go back to my room and be lazy but I can't.  I'm writing.

Take that procrastination and unproductivity.

Week of the Writer- Day 1 Success!

I did it! I have a theme and now all that I have to do is look up all my letters. Theme Reveal Day for the Challenge is March 20th so you'll find out what mind is then.

New challenge!
- Get a bunch of my letters filled in for AtoZ
- Write a good portion of the next scene I have in my head for the story I've been working on for AGES.

Week for the Writer- 2017

Its Spring Break! Time for a Week of the Writer!

One week. A time for focus. A time to push ones self. A time to put my butt in a chair and actually do some stuff.

Now this is the point where I usually make a list. But this time I think I'll do things just a bit differently. I'm going to name one thing a day and that is what I'll work on. One post every morning and hopefully one completed task before the next post.

First thing first, what in the world am I going to do for the A to Z Challenge??

These things creep up on you fast. I haven't really had the time to think about it yet. So I will spend the rest of the day thinking on this and tossing ideas around hopefully, HOPEFULLY, something will stick by tomorrow morning.
