Go With All Your Heart
Howdy! This is my Realm Makers recap post/amazing things I learned at the conference. I don't have pictures to share because, honestly, photography really isn't my thing. I think it's part of the writer brain that makes me want to just soak everything in visually and mentally and not try and snap pictures. So sorry … Continue reading Go With All Your Heart
Write Fearlessly
Howdy! This might be a kind of rambly post because I'm not sure where I'm even starting with it. I can feel your confidence in me right now. 😛 There's all sorts of advice about writing - write what you know, write first, edit later, write the book you want to read. But what happens … Continue reading Write Fearlessly
Drowning In Words
Howdy! Time for a writing update! I feel like I've been kind of hit and miss over the last month or so, but as the post title might give you an indication, it's been kind of crazy. First things - I'm still studying away for my test that's now in just two weeks! My day … Continue reading Drowning In Words

Vacation, Jobs, & Fairy Tales
Howdy! All three things happened in the last week and a half, believe it or not. I went on vacation for the first time in probably 4-5 years. Isn't that terrible? My family had planned a two week trip out to Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee and I decided kind of last minute that I'd … Continue reading Vacation, Jobs, & Fairy Tales
Write What You Know
Howdy! The other day I read a blog post about writing misconceptions. One of the top ones was "write what you know". The author of the blog called out whoever originally said that, and I totally agreed. I mean if you're to take it literally, you should have had more ridiculous adventures than Indiana Jones. … Continue reading Write What You Know
Finding A New Dream
Howdy! Last Saturday marked one of the biggest milestones in my life. Ever. I graduated from Physical Therapy school!! I'm still not sure if it's sunk in or not. 🙂 My name is now officially Dr. Claire Banschbach, DPT. And I got to wear a dorky hat. 😛 It was a crazy day. I was … Continue reading Finding A New Dream
