I’m Not Dead!

April 30, 2017April 30, 2017 Serra SwiftLeave a comment

Really! I’m not! What I AM is really, really busy. I’ve completed 2 Shitty First Drafts so far this year. They’ve been cooling their heels for a month, and I’m going to start revising them on May 7th. In the meantime I’ve been working on a 3rd Shitty First Draft…I’m ALMOST done with it, but… Continue reading I’m Not Dead!

Resolutions

January 1, 2017December 18, 2016 Serra SwiftLeave a comment

I do not like New Year’s resolutions. At least, I don’t like those vague wishes to be a better version of yourself. They don’t work. They don’t stick. We are who we are, and if we truly want to change, we have to have a PLAN. We can’t just say “this year I’ll finally put… Continue reading Resolutions

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, Blessed Yuletide, Joyous Winter Solstice (though that was technically a few days ago), Merry/Happy All the Holidays I Know Nothing About! No post today. I scheduled this one in advance, because right now I’m either gleefully ripping fancy paper off of books or reading those books or taking a… Continue reading No Post Today

I KNOW NOTHINGGGG

December 11, 2016December 11, 2016 Serra SwiftLeave a comment

I had a completely different post planned for today, but due to an intense realization on Friday which led to a subsequent rethinking of my entire approach to writing, this is the post you’re getting today: I know nothing. *cue the Jon Snow jokes* Okay, see you next week! No, no. Just kidding. So, what… Continue reading I KNOW NOTHINGGGG

Challenge Yourself, or, Difficulty Setting: Hard Mode

December 4, 2016December 4, 2016 Serra Swift2 Comments

Hello, writers! Can you believe it’s already December? I can’t. It feels like only yesterday I was holed up in the bathroom at work crying my eyes out over David Bowie dying. I am so fucking glad this shit-show of a year is almost over. But enough of that. Today I want to talk about why… Continue reading Challenge Yourself, or, Difficulty Setting: Hard Mode

Start Something New

November 27, 2016 Serra SwiftLeave a comment

Happy Sunday (and for my fellow Americans, Happy Post-Thanksgiving Food Coma)! Forgive me if I fall asleep at the keyboard today…all of the blood in my body has rushed to my stomach in an attempt to digest the ridiculous amounts of roasted meat I consumed over the course of the 4-day weekend. *clutches chest, suffers… Continue reading Start Something New
