For those of you that do not know, I’m a current student at Full Sail University, majoring in Creative Writing for Entertainment. Full Sail University, located in Winter Park, FL, is an entertainment and media arts school. For the past four years, they’ve hosted what is known as the “Hall of Fame,” which is when…
One of the things I’ve learned after nearly six years of marriage is that it’s not always perfect. It’s rarely the beautiful, singing-hand-in-hand-while-skipping-into-the-sunset sort of thing, despite what Hollywood would make you think. More often than not, marriage is a series of compromises, discussions, concessions, and sometimes full on pout-outs [primarily by the lady, I’m…
Every Thursday night, my husband and I compete in a coed kickball league. It’s a poorly organized group of friends who get together with the sole purpose of having a few beers, a few laughs and, if time allows, a few runs. The teams we play against range from the least competitive to the die-hard…
Now that my husband and I are going on our 6th year of marriage this April, most people feel it’s appropriate – if not actually mandated in some way – to ask when we’re going to start popping out babies. The way they talk about it, it would seem that it’s my moral and cultural…
I’ve finally decided to take my own advice and launch a separate blog to detail the love-affair I have with food and my constant journey to live a healthy, nutritional life. As a forewarning, I’ll try to keep my optimistic tone in the majority of the posts, but I plan to be honest and forthcoming…
I wrote the first half of this post on the drive to Lake Whales, Florida at 7:30 this morning. The second half, I wrote on the drive home. Don’t worry – my husband was driving. Morning: In the predawn stillness of a chilly Saturday morning, an alarm clock sounded. The ridiculous cadence of a robot…
No, I didn’t go get a tattoo, Mom, so stop panicking. Different Perspective Productions, the marketing company I hired a few weeks back, has officially presented their logo pitch to me and I am IN LOVE! They absolutely captured my style, the essence of my work, and the overall tone and persona I wanted my…
Ahhhhhhhhhhh! We did it! I just scanned the million-page document in and formally submitted an offer for Dream House Numero Uno. They have until the close of business day tomorrow to respond; that feels like a year from now. I’m practically hyperventilating with anticipation over here. You’d think the second time around it wouldn’t be…
My husband and I have been secretly house-hunting for several weeks. We’ve kept it quiet, mainly because we weren’t in a rush to find anything, as the lease on our condo isn’t up until August. We’ve basically just had our “feelers” out and have been researching properties, locations, and just getting an overall idea for…
OK, so, I did it! I managed to pitch the concept for my novel in less than three minutes, absolutely unscripted and with no editing after-the-fact. I’m a bit bubblier than I intended to be at the start of the video, but I think I toned down the enthusiasm by the end. In retrospect, I…
