Lack of time is lack of priorities.

This is one of my (many) favorite quotes and it used to hang on my door in my old office. I should put it up in my new office and also at home because lately I haven’t had time for anything. Or so it seems. Especially the past two weeks time seemed to fly by. I got home from work, ate, did a few things and then it was time to go to bed. Where does my time go!? I’ve also neglected my blog here and I still haven’t had time to finish our home page..shame on me!

I haven’t spent much time writing stories lately but therefore I went back to writing letters with my penpals from all over the globe. In one of my books about writing I read that if you want to be a writer, you have to write. Every day. It doesn’t matter what as long as you write. It is important to keep it up so daily writing becomes a habbit. That way you will be able to finish stories/books you’re writing. When I wrote my NaNo novel last year in November, I wrote at least 3,000 words every single day. One time it was almost 6,000 words and I finished my ~57,000 word novel in only 19 days. It takes self discipline to finish a project…not only when it comes to writing. (Websites too I guess )

I don’t really have an excuse for not working on this website. All I can say is that I have been busy with work and my freelancing AND some big changes in my life. As soon as I have time I will finish my blog post about my dream of writing a novel and how I was able to do it.

I’m interested in a ton of things but coming up with the main topics/categories for this blog was easy. I am going to write about Graphic Design, Web Design, Writing and Psychology.

Why?

Well, in my first post I said that I’ll get into more detail in my second post. And that’s what I’m going to do now.

Graphic Design

I’ve discovered my love for graphic design when I bought my very first own computer in 1997. Back then I only had Microsoft Paint and Paint Shop Pro but that didn’t hold me back from designing graphics, backgrounds and drawing digital pictures.

…and running! I’ve been working on it for the past 12 hours and I didn’t want to go to bed before it’s working.

It’s been a few months since I had the idea for this website. It was during National Novel Writing Month, when I was writing my second novel and my cousin Christina and I talked about writing a lot. We’re both into writing and design/art and so I thought I could make us a website where we can actually write about what we love.
