I started a writing group, a “Shut Up and Write” writing group. If you don’t know who or what “Shut up and Write” is, let me enlighten you. They are a nonprofit organization that encourages writers worldwide to write together. The structure is simple: come together, shut up, and write together for an hour, giveContinue reading “A Hipsy’s Creative Journey”

Diary of a Hipsy
It’s officially Gemini season, which means my birthday month is coming soon, and I love my birthday. It’s a time for reflection, recreation, and rediscovery. Another year around the sun means I should be older, wiser, and growing into someone I am proud of. The company I have been working for the last ten yearsContinue reading “Diary of a Hipsy”
Old Chapters, New Year…Best ME!
Happy New Year! First, I want to thank you, my dear readers, who have followed me in my inconsistent journey of blogging about the different things in my life. It was such an incredible year, and I have big plans to get more consistent with my blogging schedule here. It’s been quite the week, month,Continue reading “Old Chapters, New Year…Best ME!”
In my new home office…
It’s been a while, dear readers. I had the worst writer’s block, or perhaps I got too far into my head, and every time I would sit down to write, someone’s words of judgment would pop into my head, and before I knew it, I was spiraling down a rabbit hole. Not all who wanderContinue reading “In my new home office…”
In a bookstore…
Describe one positive change you have made in your life. I set these prompts on my jet pack in the hopes that it would get me to remember to write more often. Some of these prompts are interesting, though none have brought me to write anything and usually results in the dismissal of the reminderContinue reading “In a bookstore…”
In a bar
I’ve been on the greatest weekend adventure. An unforgettable whirlwind of adventure. Today I’ve been crashing from vacation blues the way a drug addict comes down from their last hit. Okay, that’s a bit drastic but I’ve spent the day lost in “The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue” because I’m not ready to face theContinue reading “In a bar”
In a coffee shop
Today has been a different kinda day and right now I’m sitting at a coffee shop without my headphones because I forgot them at home. I am wearing heels and I didn’t want to walk all the way back to my apartment. I told myself this was an opportunity to listen to my thoughts andContinue reading “In a coffee shop”
Wander On Hipsy
It’s hard to believe that the end of the year is almost here, time really flies when you’re having fun, or really busy. Either way, how are we already here? I’ve been in a sorta funk lately that I can’t seem to shake myself out of. It’s been hard to keep up with my dailyContinue reading “Wander On Hipsy”
Hipsy on a Mission…
It’s been awhile since I’ve published something here, and not because I haven’t written anything, but because nothing has been “worthy enough” to post here. I would blame it on the writers block I’ve been struggling with for the past year or so but I’ve been doing some soul searching and perhaps it goes muchContinue reading “Hipsy on a Mission…”
Memorial Day
8 years ago I was standing at the top of the Indiana sand dunes asking myself when I would stop making excuses and start actually living life. 🥺 7 years ago I was just starting out my life in Houston. On my own for the first time with two kids. I had just starting outContinue reading “Memorial Day”
