Behind The Pen

Well, hello friends!  I must be honest in saying, I don't really have a plan for this post. As I'm writing this very sentence I'm wondering what will come next and what will come after that.  Believe it or not, that's often how writing goes. Sometimes you have a basic idea of what you want to say, but you're still not quite sure what will come out. And then, like occasions such as this, you just have absolutely no idea what will occur.  But that's ok.  Because the fact of the matter is- I'm writing. I'm getting words down on paper and I'm no longer procrastinating writing this post.  It's interesting because, just today [the day of writing this post's first draft, that is], I listened to a lesson on YDubs that Brett Harris shared on writer's block. Essentially, the best thing to do is to sit in front of the doc and just write. It could even just be one sentence and that would be enough. And then, since you're there and you're just

Hello, my loyal friends who have stuck with me over the past year+ of me barely writing anything at all! *hides face* Here's the thing- my blog so far has been all about "behind the scenes" of my writing because there is a life behind every pen. However, there's only so much I can share about my writing without giving things away, risking my content being stolen, and so on. Whenever I would come on here to write a post I would find myself almost stressed with writing posts because I just didn't know what to share. SO... This made me realise that I need to make some changes around here. With the way I'm doing things right now, I'm unable to share so many of the things I wish I could, but I feel somewhat restricted. I want to be able to write posts on any topic that comes to me and I want to share with the world so they can be partake in the joy, use, encouragement, etc. that I get from that topic. Now don't worry- this is still Beh

Well, that worked out a dream, didn't it... *facedesks* Ok, but seriously. I'm taking a device break right now (excluding my laptop, which I'm using for writing and school) and it's really been helping me out writing-wise. But that's a post for another time. For now, I'm just letting you know that there are posts planned and I plan on getting them to you very soon. Sooooooooooo....... Yea. Sorry about that. Ok, well, I guess that's all I wanted to say! See you in the next post! -Beth Xx

April. April 30th, 2018 was the last time I posted. 😱 I AM SO SORRY, GUYS! THIS IS SO BAD OF ME! After April, the whole busyness of summer sorta kicked in and, after that, I never got back into the daily rhythm of blogging and weekly posting. I hereby take complete responsibility for this lack of posting. I can only hope that you guys haven't completely left me after I was gone for so long and that you still read and enjoy this blog. SO, that being said! Where have I been and what have I been doing? Here are some things that have happened in my life since posting- I turned 15 in May My wonderful baby brother was born I went to an AMAZING camp (Shoutout to Camp Victory! 🙌)  We had our last year of the Bible Conference we go to These are just a few of my non-writing highlights since the last update on life.  A few things that happened in my writing life are-  I became a Community Assistant on Y-dubs I completed the first draft of Henry's Story (I
