Bio
I'm a creative writer in the way that I write. I hold the pen in this unique and creative way you've never seen. The content which I write... well, it's still to be determined if that's any good.

The Physical Copy
I had already been published in The Fifth Di... and I had already seen it online. I had already told everyone and I had already been told that I'd receive a contributor's copy. I had a good feeling it was going to be a physical copy but I wasn't sure. I knew if I got a physical copy, I'd be so happy... having a tangible thing... with my work in it.

Mid April: Seven Goals Accomplished
One more goal down! That's seven! It feels like a "Finally" moment, but it's been less than a month since I accomplished my last goal and began working on this one. The "Finally" feeling comes from fact that I began this project a while back and left it on hold for some time.

Late February: Three Goals Accomplished
As the Ancient Greeks used to say, “The Gods have smiled upon me this moon cycle, giving me abundance in crops and goods and smiles and levity.” Or something. Some of their stuff is difficult to translate/make up. But no, February has been kind to me in 2025. Or have I just been working hard, and February has rewarded my hard work accordingly?

February: One Goal Accomplished. Top Story - February 2025.
Early February: I've completed the first of my 2025 goals! Ooh it feels good. I put together a list of writing goals for the year of 2025. Admittedly, I assume there will wind up being more that pop up throughout the year, but I wanted to put down some things that were most important to me, and then try to get through as many of those as I could. It was 16 different goals I jotted down, and I assumed I wouldn't get through them all. But I wanted to try to get through as many as I could. Give myself constant goals on the horizon to strive for.
