Written with fragments by Nichole
Woke up. Went to the bank to fix debit card mistake. Went to the post office. Mailed zines. Came home. Finished website design. Sent to client. Ate lunch. Talked to my brother on the phone. Talked to him a lot. Got my mail. Zines inside! Left to visit Donna. Caught up on life. Left to [...]

Written with a lost of things by Nichole
Haven’t been blogging much because I’ve been living life as much as I can, though I will admit my lack of blogging has been touched with a smidgen of laziness. Here is a quick rundown of what I’ve been doing, if anyone really cares. Had a wonderful night to eat, drink and be merry with [...]

Written with validation problems by Nichole
I’m bad about giving myself vacations. Do you think 90+ days of writing and such warrants a vacation? I have a bit of a cold thanks to Chris, but it’s sweeping through my immune system rather quickly. Fine by me. It’s only day two and I’m already with a drippy nose and hacking up a [...]

Written with self-esteem issues by Nichole
GoldenTech recently put out a challenge, pushing people to focus on inbound marketing for 33 minutes a day. I left my job in web design with an online marketing firm without so much as saying good riddance. Even so, I still can’t shake my marketing persona. It’s been with me for the last four years, [...]

Written with a drained brain... ugh, by Nichole
Today is one of those days. I feel drained in terms of writing. I typed up two rough drafts today, about 4,000 words worth of prose, and I am just looking at them, asking myself, “Where the heck do I go from here?” I should know this answer because I’ve been doing it for the [...]

Written with a Bic by Nichole
The following is from the paper journal I started today. Updates here on out will most likely be transcribed from that journal. I don’t know why… but I find it easier to write on paper. The computer screen is just too blinding! After reading my old journals, the ones that spanned from 1998 to 2006, [...]

About Nichole the not-so-starving artist from Northwest Indiana
I quit my job to be a full-time writer! I'm also a web designer, gamer and a level 12 necromancer-in-training, sort of. I cook like a mo-fo and bake when the mood strikes me. Angel food cake is a specialty. I make choices in life by rolling percentile dice. TV is lame, so I watch Let's Plays. My iPod is filled with video game soundtracks. I support local commerce by shopping local and supporting the emerging artists in my community.
@ripsup They would have to dump the contents of it out first. I guess they could always paint with it like some women do. in reply to ripsup 7 mins ago
