Welcome to My New Blog

 Hello, my elflings! IT HAS FINALLY HAPPENED. Welcome to the new Musings of an Elf! (Even though it’s no longer called that, but details.) The wait is over and it is HEEERE. I’m a little excited, if you can’t tell. I’m kind of in love with my new space, if I’m being honest. It’s so much cleaner and better put together than ol’ Musings of an Elf (at least I hope so?). Don’t get me wrong, I LOVED my old blog, and will forever be fond of it, but it’s nice to be on a more professional platform. STILL. I can…

May Hiatus Notice

Hello, my dears! Happy May to you all! (*pretends I’m not freaking out over the fact that it’s already May when it should still be February or something*) If the post title and big picture above isn’t clear enough… I’m going on hiatus for the course of May. I hate to do it. I always hate going a while without blogging. Buuuut Realm Makers is looming. (Like seriously, we’re less than 3 months away, people!!!) Annnnd I have much RM prep that still needs doing. Including finishing up edits for Burning Thorns. My original plan was to really focus on…

2017 Wrap-Up: The Life, the Geekery, the Bookishness

So apparently 2017 is almost done with us and I’d like to know who gave it permission to be nearly finished?????? WHERE DO I FILE A COMPLAINT? Because wow yeah. This year zoomed by at record breaking speeds and has left me sitting here in a daze wondering what just happened like the Hare in the Tortoise and the Hare story. (I don’t know either. Just go with it.) Last year wasn’t my favorite. I wasn’t in the best place mentally, there were a lot of lows, and some tragic things happened. But 2017, 2017 was much, much better. I…

The NaNo 2017 Diaries {Vlog}

THIIIIINGS ARE GOING DOWN TODAY. The title of this post in fact does not have a typo. Nope. It’s correct. I’M SHARING A VLOG. My first ever vlog. With my actual face. And voice. TERRIFYING, I KNOW. So why this sudden video? Well. During NaNoWriMo this year I thought it’d be fun to make a video diary every single day of all that was going on. At first I was thinking I’d do it only for myself—just a fun way to have a log of the month without having to journal anything (because goodness knows I was writing enough without…

NaNoWriMo ‘17 Wrap-Up: In Which “The End” Happens

I don’t know if you’re aware or not but…NOVEMBER IS OVER!!! It’s December! NANOWRIMO IS FINISHED! Oh, and guess what? MY BOOK IS FINISHED TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wrote “The End” on November 30th! And I’ve been dancing and squealing ever since! I was just…shocked I managed to get it done. I really thought I’d have to continue writing through the first few days of December to wrap it up. BUT IT IS DONNNNEEEE!!!!! I honestly think this is the fastest NaNo I’ve ever experienced. It zipped by me so quick, I’m pretty sure it gave me whiplash. Like…what is this??? November…

WEEK FOUR OF NANO ‘17…
