  • A Busy Little Writer’s Update

    Update : Added images. Updated formatting to current blog standards. So Blogger’s autosave feature decided to bite me in the butt. Pressed some weird key combination on my keyboard on accident the other day, which somehow cleared the entire post I was working on. Then Blogger decided to autosave my blank page. With no recover…

  • Why Is Writing So Hard for Me?
