How I Deal With: Blanket Expressions

Image
  Hey all, and welcome to the first session of this "revamped" Blog. If you follow me on any other platform Wattpad Insta Fb then it will come as no surprise, I still suck at introductions. So we're gonna skip some of the info dumping (where I'm from, where I've been, what I do for the most part) because it's all in the bio  《------ For this first post we're going to discuss the big question that most hoo•mans have:  WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME? And maybe you all have the same issues and you'll be able to resonate or maybe you'll find my writing style hilarious and want to stick around. Probably not that last part, but here goes. Hi, my name is Nichele (you can call me Nina, you know, pen name and all) and I have Anxiety. Yes, I am aware that is a blanket expression encompassing all of the little things that are probably wrong with me but if I were to start listing all of those things you'd probably stop reading. BTW super gratefu...

The Big Change

Part of being a blogger means actually coming back and creating something. I get that. I understand completely the task that I've bestowed upon myself. However, actually doing it...is another thing. So instead of apologizing for like, the trillionth time, we're going to just jump on in. #SorryNotSorry Do you ever feel like you're not good at anything? Like you're in the prime of your life and yet you don't have your life together? Do you relate to this meme? You're not alone, trust me. And this post is for YOU ! In this day and age, it's hard NOT to compare yourself to others and I recently found myself spiraling down the rabbit hole that is the: insta and youtube star. You know what I'm talking about. Where you stop writing for a fraction of a second to check out your newsfeed and somehow end up 3 hours later on youtube watching makeup tutorials or how to keep your cabinet clean with these 5 simple dollar store hacks videos. I digress. Whilst pro...

If at first you don't succeed, forget and try again in ten years

 Fourscore and like, six years ago...  The author NinaKari started a blog that she promised she was going to keep up with. And as with anything writing related, she forgot. Until right now, at this very moment.  So I write to whom or who-I still don't know the difference and I've graduated two colleges with degrees in literature- that it may concern, I am sorry. A sorry sack you ask?  Yes.  A sorry sack .  Yes, (S)he does. I am alive and well, well, well being a loose term. Get it? No? That's fine.  Moving on. I haven't been doing nothing, I promise.  Life just gets hectic sometimes, between juggling a full-time job, family, a social life, and a non-existent writing career it's just been straight up...what's the term I'm looking for ? Is that what he's saying??? 😂😂 Okay then yeah, that's it. Kooky(apparently not poopy)-dooks.  But I have been writing. Not as much as I or my readers would...

Insane or Just...Overly Optimistic?

I've tried my hand at blogging a few times before and have tipped my cap at those who have lasted more than a month. I was weak, I couldn't last seven days. But I'm back, ready to try again, and hopefully this time I can stick with it. On another note, I've also decided to try my hand at NaNoWriMo again. For those of you who don't know what this is, it's an acronym. Oh, you knew that? What does it stand for, you ask?  Well, it's only the most *downloading completely made up words* horrifying-est, stupend-erous,  hair pulling out-erous 30 days of pulling a novel out of your bum, that an author can endure. But most love doing it because...we love to push ourselves I guess. We love seeing what we can come up with when put on the spot. And to be honest, most do a great job of doing just that. There have been many who have conquered  NaNoWriMo and went on to publish their work-after editing and reediting I'm sure-and gaining many fans along ...
