Hi everyone! Wow, it's been a while since the last Rambling, huh? Well, I'm still here! I've been very busy with my day job, the house, my mental health, and my physical health, too.

Things have been pretty quiet in the forest lately. Sorry about that. I’d been gearing up to get some intensive revising done on my Apothecary WIP, and was excited to shout about it, and then...life happened. Mid to late October, I got a call from my landlord telling us he’s selling the house. Big shocker. … Continue reading A Forrest’s Ramblings #2

July is almost over, and that means only three more months until the next NaNoWriMo! To be honest, I’ve had NaNo in the back of my mind all year. I can’t help it: I’ve written a book every year now for the past four years because of it. But I keep asking myself: Will I be participating this year? What will my next story be? What do I want to accomplish?Â

Happy December, everybody! November is over, and that means NaNoWrimo 2020 has ended. How did you do? Did you hit 50,000 words? Or your own personal goal? No matter how you did, know that every word you managed to write, no matter how small it seems, is more words than you had last month! That’s… Continue reading Forrest’s 2020 NaNo Experience
Ah, October. The month of skeletons, pumpkins, and general Spook. It’s also the month of NaNo prep! NaNoWriMo is the annual National Novel Writing Month (of November), and the goal is to write 50,000 words in thirty days.

When I lost my job due to Covid-19 near the end of March, I expected it, although I thought we might last another week or two. I was laid off, not furloughed, but I knew that once we reopened our doors that they would rehire me. Still, the uncertainty along with the stress and lack… Continue reading Creativity During Covid
