Topical Tuesday: ComiPo Conundrum

Posted on December 17, 2019 by Jaluna

Season’s greetings, everyone! Can you believe it’s getting so close to the end of the year? I was thinking about how much I’ve changed over the past year, and I realized something… the most major change, I’ve found, is that I’m using ComiPo a lot less than I used to. Now, It’s not like I…

Topical Tuesday: NaNo is Over! Time for Project Updates!

Posted on December 3, 2019 by Jaluna

Hey everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve written a post, hasn’t it? And I mean actually written a post. It may be the last day of November when I’m writing this, but I have so much to share from the past month that I’m not sure of where to start. Well, for one thing,…

NaNo Special: Writer’s Block

Posted on November 23, 2019October 28, 2019 by Jaluna

Good morning, my special friends! It’s time for another NaNo Special! Today, I’m going to talk about probably the most frustrating thing a writer can go through (in my opinion, at least). Yep, we’re talking about Writer’s Block. I like to envision writing a bit like driving… Which is funny since I can’t drive. And…

NaNo Special: World Building

Posted on November 16, 2019October 21, 2019 by Jaluna

It’s that time again today. That’s right- it’s time for a NaNo Special! Today, I felt like talking about something I worked on for a good chunk of September and October in preparation for this year’s NaNo: world building. It’s a difficult and tedious task depending on how you go about it, but in my…

NaNo Special: Me and My Characters

Posted on November 9, 2019October 21, 2019 by Jaluna

Hey there everyone! Having a good November so far? I’m writing a number of these NaNo Special posts in advance, to give myself more time to write during NaNoWriMo… But I’m sure I’m having a lot of fun and frustration in your present and my future. “But wait, Jaluna, why are you so certain you’d…

NaNo Special: My Writing Style

Posted on November 2, 2019October 15, 2019 by Jaluna

It’s the second day of NaNoWriMo, and my first November blog! I figured since it’s the first NaNo Special, I’d talk about something unique to me: my writing style, particularly how it varies between chatting applications and story writing. You see, I write very differently depending on what I’m writing. A message to a friend…

Throwback Thursday: NaNoWriMo

Posted on October 31, 2019October 22, 2019 by Jaluna

Welcome to the last post of October! It feels like time’s blown away quite quickly, doesn’t it? It’s already Halloween- and that means one thing to me: Tomorrow starts the craziest writing time I have each year: National Novel Writing Month, otherwise known as NaNoWriMo. If you don’t know what NaNoWriMo is, it’s a challenge…

Throwback Thursday: The Characters Who Raised Me

Posted on October 10, 2019October 4, 2019 by Jaluna

Hey there everyone! How are you doing today? The week’s almost over, can you believe it? I got a request from one of my loyal readers recently: a post about fictional characters, whether mine or someone elses, and how they’ve helped me grow into who I am now. Honestly, I find this topic super interesting,…

Topical Tuesday: Conversation

Posted on October 8, 2019October 4, 2019 by Jaluna

Hello, everyone! Enjoying your week so far? Today, I thought- okay, not me. Sophie. Sophie thought of this. I love when she gives me prompts! Anyway, Sophie recommended a pretty interesting topic idea this time around too: conversations. She said she’d be curious to see how I talk to people, how I perceive others in…

Soulful Saturday: Obsession

Posted on July 27, 2019July 26, 2019 by Jaluna

Hello everyone! It’s time for another post of me gushing about things that aren’t just topical, easy to discuss things. For a change though, my topic is actually writing related! (Shocking, I know!) Today, I’d like to tell you about a little problem I’ve had most of my life since I learned to read and…
