    2020

    It's been a very intense year for me. I've been fortunate enough to have been working this entire time and was promoted twice since March. This was the cause of the delay in this story. I've been learning what it takes to lead people at work, but also how to manage my own self care while being able to care for others.

    Completed

    I have finally concluded “The Phoenix King”. It went on longer than I ever thought it would and probably didn’t need to be so long to begin with. Although, I had a great amount of fun writing every chapter of it and felt that it had literal arcs that focused on different things to keep it fresh. Or at leas to hope it did.

    Smolder 1k

    Where to begin, because I know where I had left off.

This led me to becoming a 'Lead' within a department, which meant reading a large "SOP" (Standard Operating Procedure) and doing a lot of overtime to get ready for the position. It

    New Beginnings

    These last two weeks I had dedicated myself to getting this new job, revamping my resume and going to two interviews for the position. I am happy to say that they have offered it to me which means I am over the moon at the moment on the possibilities this affords me. Full time, 401k, health insurance, paid vacation, and on top of all that it is a government job. I feel very fortunate for this

    Smoldering It Over 3rd Anniversary and Smolder 900

    Today marks the third anniversary of Smoldering It Over being uploaded and coincidentally happens to be the same day that it has reached nine-hundred views. I feel like I simply repeat myself over and over again when I say how humbled I am to have reached this milestone, but it couldn't be more to the truth. I was excited to know that thirty-four viewers had taken a glance at it and left a

Learning To Fly · 5:16am Oct 3rd, 2017

Tom Petty was among my most beloved artists, my favorite song of his being "Learning To Fly", and these lyrics inspired the the premise of 'Smoldering It Over'.

It was a simple message that life could beat you down, break your heart, steal your crown, but we can still learn to fly; learn to overcome.

Rest in peace.
