Why am I having the urge to blog? Every once in a while I remember this space, and how dedicated I was to it back in the day. I started WOAW nine years ago, posting every other day, unashamed, not caring about whether my words would be judged, or if people would think I'm nuts.…
Writing Prompt, Day 3!
Write something that revolves around movement. Welcome to Day 3 of the Writing Prompt excitement. Something that revolves around movement... Since the lockdown due to the pandemic, I've added a couple of new talents to my repertoire. First, I've become an expert bread-maker. I have a great no-knead recipe that comes out delicious every time.…
Three Things Post
A million years ago, I started to draft this post after lifting the idea from another blogger. Check out Essential Doctor Who, who hopefully doesn't mind that I'm half a decade behind. I'm not sure anyone is interested in all of this information about me, but this seemed like a fun thing to do and…
Beatlemania? I got it!
A little over a year ago, I was procrastinating with my writing (shocker, I know, haha). It was the middle of the night and I was sitting at my dining room table, laptop open, searching for anything to do other than write, when lo and behold, I found a Procrastinator's Paradise: Carpool Karaoke, a segment…
Publishing, Rejections, and Writing is Weird
Being a writer is a weird thing. Some days, weeks, months, you seem to have it all together and everything is flowing. Words, marketing, tweets, posts. Other times, you open the laptop and stare at it until your head starts to bob because you're falling asleep. When things are going great, whoopee! Those are the…
When Good Things Happen…
Sometimes good things happen to good people. I know, I know... it's hard to believe. Well, sit back, Blogtropolis, and let me tell you a little story... I work with a lady, let's call her Terry. Terry has worked in my office for a million years, since she was a teenager (she's in her 50's…
Another year…!
Where does the time go? I started Waiting on a Word four years ago. How did it get to be 2017? I'm sorry I haven't been around much because WOAW is still my favorite corner of my cyberworld. So where have I been? 2016 was a whirlwind. After starting a new day job, I…
Happy Blog-iversary WOAW!
In January of 2013, I started this blog and wrote a post. I hit "publish" even though I had zero followers and hadn't invited anyone to read it. Here's part of what I wrote: I don’t know where my ideas will come from, or if I will ever even have another one, never mind a…
Just Being- For Now
I sit on my couch and watch the lights twinkle on the Christmas tree. I consider keeping it up all year because taking it down seems like a daunting task. Also, it's pretty. Little M., who's not so little anymore, smiles on the couch next to me, watching the iPad and playing with a toy.…
Do-Re-Mi, ME ME ME … Stuck on Me
I've been writing posts and keeping them in my drafts because I feel so incredibly self-centered talking about me, me, me all the time. Especially with everything going on in the world. But guess what? Here's another post about me. I tried checking out the Daily Prompts. There was one I liked about a mystery…
