Write more, Procrastinate less.

I swear one of these days I’ll actually write more on this site, instead of posting with months in between. If not years. LOL

And it’s not like I don’t have the time to post anything, because I have days off from my daytime job to do just this. I seem to be always making excuses to not do what I say I want to do.

Between my daytime job, doing my regular housework, gardening (when the weather is nice), reading a huge load of to-be-read books, and writing my own book, I’m surprised I find the time to breathe.

So this is me, making an attempt to write a little in the book I have saved. And this is also me trying and taking an hour each night to read whatever book I have on my night table by my bed.

With a combination of Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, I’m going to have to do some serious cutting off the apps so I can truly focus on my projects and complete them.

I get a sense that’s probably why I haven’t found a publishing company to take me on as I seem to be too curious as to what’s being said on the apps I’ve listed above.

So, here’s me, starting tomorrow (after work), to take my writing project more seriously. Considering I have an amazing person helping me with certain aspects of my book, I don’t want to disappoint him. And I have an awesome local #1 Int. & USA TODAY Bestselling Author, who is always encouraging me to keep going.

Hence why I don’t want to prolong this as much as I have already. I want to get this done and make those who mean the world to me, proud. I know they are already, but I’ve had this book started for a few months now, and I need to get it done.

Though, here’s where I ask a favor from you all. If by chance you are following me on Twitter, give me a virtual kick in my behind to get my book finished. Trust me, I’ll appreciate it in the end.

And on that note, I’m heading off. I have work in the morning and I want to get a good night’s sleep.

Thank you for reading (or listening to) my short-ish post.

Until next time.

Breaking out…

There’s so many things I’ve always wanted to do with my life, besides getting married and having kids.  Some things I’ve accomplished.  Others, not so much.

Growing up, you’re always asked “what do you want to do?”  And for the longest time, it was an actress.  Something about TV and film fascinated me.  But it was looked down upon.

So then I thought of being one of those stewards aboard airplanes. I wanted to travel all over the world (or wherever the plane would take me, lol).  But that didn’t work out either.  Even though I was enrolled and was having such a great first day with my classes.

So I ended up doing a Word Processing Operator course.  I’m not dissing that profession, I really enjoyed it.  I did my 3-week on the job training in an office building in the downtown area and was learning so much from the people there.  Until I was finished my course and was seeking actual work.

I went everywhere I could think.  Dentist offices, law offices, even schools.  Nada.

I ended up working at a fast-food place.  Not the most glamourous job, but at least most of the costumers made it worthwhile.

But I had dreamt of so much.  This wasn’t what I had seen myself doing when asked, “what do you want to do when you grow up?”

It took many years later that I would get to dabble into acting.  Mind you, it’s fanmade films, and all voluntary, but what an awesome experience.

So now, besides having done a bit of acting, I’ve also written and published a book (with 2 more on the way).

But what I’m so proud of (besides my kids), is that I was able to join in on a project for a music video from one of my favorite singers – Ben Haenow.

He won X-Factor 2014 and as soon as his first single came out, I had to buy a copy.  He’s got one of those voices that you just fall in love with.

Watch the video, stream and buy his new single If You’re Lonely, and see if you can find me, LOL.

Sending lots of love to anyone who needs it.  And remember, you\re never alone.

Until next time,,,

K ❤
