Hope for All

(1109 words) “Arman, did you pack your mask?” “Yes mom.” “Did you pack your stabilizer?” “Yes mom.” “Do you have an extra tank of O 2 ?”   “Yes m –” the young boy paused and started to rummage through his bag searching for the compact canister. A large sigh escaped him as he panned over to his mother who had her decorated hand on her waist. A soft chuckle escaped the tall woman as she tucked the canister in his backpack. “Thanks mom” he whispered. With a scratch on his head, she strapped the mask on his face and fixed the goggles on his eyes and gave him a kiss on his forehead. A heavy and weary sigh left her as she hugged him. “Mom, I’m just going on a field trip.” the boy sighed. “I know sweetheart. It’s just that the gas levels are really high today...the highest we’ve seen in months.” she whispered. “It’s fine. Aren’t you a scientist?” “Yeah,” she chuckled wiping her nose, “Yeah I am. Go on, you don’t wanna be late.” He waved back at her as he walked th...

Post Nanowrimo...Woe is Me!

"Get it down. Take chances. It may be bad, but it's the only way you can do anything really good." -  William Faulkner Welcome back to the cave everyone! It is 4 days past Nanowrimo and the amount of Instagram posts I’ve seen of persons posting them winning it. My whole feed was taken over by photos of Nanowrimo banners and blurry pictures of word counts. The ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhs’ of commenters congratulating them on their success. I have now been seeing posts of people now posting that they didn’t win Nanowrimo this year. And honestly, I loved those ones as they gave a sense of realism to persons writing in 2020. And by persons, I mean me lol. The year of 2020 has been a whole roller coaster, especially with my writing. Oh my gosh, I have never struggled so much to find words for my stories. And I think that’s ultimately why I didn’t participate in nano this year. I was already stressing myself trying to write some flash fictions, nevermind a whole novel I have just sitting ...

♫Guess who’s back, back again. Maria’s back, tell a friend♫

T he fact that I’ve probably written this post like four or five times at this point is just plain funny. And the fact that created this blog the same amount of times on different websites is even more ridiculous. I ran from the idea of having a blog for so long. I considered creating videos on YouTube to streaming on Twitch to streaming on Mixer to just completely giving up the idea of creating an audience and just writing my book and seeing where it would go.   But alas, I am ready to start this new chapter in my life. You know, I never realized how frightening it was to put yourself out there. Especially if we’re talking about going in front of a camera and having to entertain an audience. Though that’s what I’m doing with this blog, but it’s different you know. To just be behind a screen and typing my life away, rather than talking to camera and a live audience. Blogging is less daunting.   Granted, trying to find the words to type on a blank sheet and then upload ...
