NaNo Here I Go #IWSG

Posted on November 7, 2018November 6, 2018 by Loni Townsend

November kicked off pretty well on the writing front. If you’re not familiar with NaNoWriMo, it’s where people everywhere try to write 50K in 30 days. This is my 7th year going for it, and though I failed the past two years, I think I’ll make it this year. Why? Because this year, I have…

Halfway Through October Already?

Posted on October 17, 2018 by Loni Townsend

October’s been busy for me! At work, we’ve been strengthening our IT relations and that’s include multiple multi-hour meetings. As a programmer, I don’t use many of the systems that the techs or net ops uses, but for the sake of awareness, they want to make sure everybody’s on the same page. I’m a bit…

Digital Painting and Sales

Posted on September 26, 2018 by Loni Townsend

As you may or may not know, I’ve been trying to improve my digital painting this year and my focus tends to be my characters. I managed to capture personality in my comic style, but I can’t help but want to see what other styles might suit me. I opted for something a little less…

Paint Me A Picture

Posted on July 18, 2018 by Loni Townsend

When it comes to hobbies and interests, I’m the type of person who starts something and usually abandons it half-finished. Girl Scouts, ballet, gymnastics, knitting, wire-working… Eventually, my love of the activity fades and I leave it by the wayside. Thankfully, that hasn’t been the case with drawing (or writing for that matter). Back in…

Mid-Year Progress Check

Posted on June 27, 2018 by Loni Townsend

Can you believe June is almost over? My husband and I celebrated our 12th anniversary on Sunday. We were lucky enough that my sis-in-law was willing to watch the kids for us after she got off work, because we completely forgot to plan anything. I’d even forgotten about our anniversary until my daughter asked me…

Aesthetics on Pinterest

Posted on June 13, 2018 by Loni Townsend

I’m late to the game, but there’s this thing people do called “building aesthetic boards on Pinterest.” My friend Dani introduced me to the concept and then another email pal sent me links to her own aesthetic boards. I have to admit, there’s a certain charm to putting pictures together to create a feel, so…

Suggestions for Outsourcing?

Posted on September 13, 2017 by Loni Townsend

If you’ve followed my blog or know me, you probably know that I like art. I draw. I mess around with digital graphics. I even have a stinkin’ nice computer so I can draw digitally as if it were a sketchbook. Well, we’re our own worst critics, right? Okay, maybe that’s not true, because I’ve…

2016 – It Ain’t Over Yet

Posted on December 14, 2016December 16, 2016 by Loni Townsend

Every year, I get letters from friends giving their year in review. I ogle at the pictures and how organized they must be to achieve such feats, while I haven’t been able to get even a Christmas card in the mail for …well… forever. That’s not going to change, but I figured I might as…

Racing Like A Rabid Squirrel

Posted on September 21, 2016 by Loni Townsend

As you might’ve guessed by my previous posts, it’s been a month of doing stuff. Since I’ve already regaled you of my leap from an airplane, I won’t rehash that. But hey, look! I’ve got pictures! Hopefully they don’t make anyone sick. I mentioned running a 5K. The Ultimate Wine Run was set in a…

Finding Inspiration Through Conversation

Posted on March 9, 2016March 9, 2016 by Loni Townsend

“Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration, the rest of us just get up and go to work.” – Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft Technically, I’m not sitting and waiting. I’m digital painting. Still, it’s a case of me not writing because I’m inspired to do something else. I’m the type of…
