5 Ways I beat Writer’s Block

Happy Day 10 of my 14-day book launch! Today I want to share with you 5 ways I beat Writer’s Block.

My book is officially going to be out in 4 days! I just can’t believe it’s getting closer and closer to finally being released into the online world.

I had a realization earlier how it was a scary thing for me to release my first book because this was an idea that I made up in my head, an idea that I took care of and fostered until it became a full-blown story.

2 Years of Arizona Living

It’s amazing the many things that can change in a year, to a month, to a week, to even a day. I mean my book is going to officially be out in 5 DAYS! And I have officially been living in Arizona for 2 years this month!

This to me is so crazy.

Did I ever think that I was going to end up in Arizona? No. I did not think that whatsoever. It was the same with me never ever thinking I’d have lived in South Dakota, but I did that too.

Top Ten Motivation Songs

If you’re like me, I live for music. I will constantly be playing some tune in my head and I will constantly have song lyrics stuck playing over and over again. Now I’m no musician, I can only barely play guitar, I only know how to make noise with drums and I can only play Chopsticks on the Piano (and Beethoven’s Fur Elise song, this I’m pretty proud of myself for).

But there is definitely something about music that really makes you feel something. I mean if you go through a bad breakup, or you feel like your world is falling apart, I tend to turn to music to help heal me, to help me get through those tough days. Or to motivate me.

The Ultimate Guide to the Mall of America

Ever wonder what it’s like to venture into a mall that’s the size of an amusement park? Well, look no further than the infamous Mall of America. And let me tell you, it’s probably even bigger than some amusement parks.

I visited the Mall of America back when I was living in South Dakota as a little mini getaway to Minnesota. You can read about my morning in Minneapolis and at the Spoonbridge and Cherry Park right here.

Now I’ve heard about Mall of America, which is located in Bloomington, Minnesota, which is not too far from Downtown Minneapolis. I’ve seen Mall of America on TV loads of time. I mean Travel Channel always would feature this place as a place to visit for any and all people. And it for sure didn’t disappoint when I visited.
