_News: What even is a second draft._ Let's talk about churches here for a second. About a half a year ago I had a discussion with the leader of the middle school ministry of my church about why everyone seems to be bashing churches and church goers now-a-days. And I mean everyone. Even Christians themselves. Especially Christians, I think. My friends...

_News: There is no news. There never was any news. Time is an illusion._ Journalistic quick fire update because I haven't posted a thing-thing here in a while. -Filmed a video. On my YouTube. Click this sentence.  -Started school, therefore the irrational fear of forgetting I signed up for a course, never attending said course, and getting an...

_News: Getting geared for draft 2 of novel in progress._ ...

_News: I took a vacation. See below for details._ This is going to be another journalistic post but at least time it won't be preachy so sit back and enjoy if you wish. About three months ago (give or take) my best friend moved from Chicago to North Carolina with her Aunt and Uncle. And so, two months later, I bought a ticket to fly out and visit...

_News: Yes I've been gone a month. No I wasn't kidnapped by space pirates. Where did you even hear that?_ Okay, listen, this post will be a little more journalistic and preachy then my other ones but I figured I'd put it out there for the better of mankind. God's been nudging me to talk about it. Like, poking my shoulder my shoulder while I'm sleeping...

_News: Finals and writing a book and work and street fair planning many other shenanigans so here. *shoves a pile of scraps from desk* *stalks back to desk* *cat settles on lap* *home life=happy life being doodtiful to my doodling. *high fives self* *feels a bit to proud* have you listened to this?  Tired...

_News: It's happened guys, I am Undertale trash. Full blown, AU trolling Undertale garbage._ It's been said before but it is a golden age for the independent artist. With real practical means to market and distribute product, consumer art is no longer defined by what is the most popular or what pleases the most amount of people. Not only that, but...

Education has been on my mind this year. Well, this semester. There's been an ongoing discussion about it in my speech class and ever since it's been popping up all over the place in my life. So I really feel like talking about it because for some reason it's so gosh darn fascinating. Now, I haven't really formed my own concrete opinion on it just...

_News: Book review with Princess Faith is up, see it here._ Ladies Gents and Germs, I have a confession to make. I, Nikmacpattywak, am a fan of coffee. I know, shocking. I love coffee. I love drinking it,  I love pictures of it, I love pictures of me drinking it. Also, coffee has very little to do with this post. So, in church we're going...

*If you prefer to read, script below* What up nerds, this is an update. If you are a person who don't care about updates then I can respect that, why don't you go enjoy some Sonic tater tots instead? As for the rest of you, might have noticed my blog is different now. You might have also noticed that I haven't posted a video in quiet some time....

_Stop making fun of people for auto correct typos. Auto correct needs to get its crap together, we all know that. We can't always be on top of it. We've tried, we've failed. Time to move on with our lives. And I feel like all the time we waste making fun of people for typos is time we could spend curing cancer or making a decent Superman movie....

_News: School starts next week._ Valued Reader, I'm trying. I'm trying really hard to not be the type of person who needs to talk about everything that happens to me professionally, whether it be good bad or just plain ugly. But, seriously, I just got an awesome rejection. I loved it. It was the best. [context] I said in my last post that I had...

Ladies and Gentlemen, your attention PLEASE. I would like to inform all of you that I am no longer "theoretically" a writer. No, we opened up this box and after we scooped out the cat who had technically been dead for the entirety of Schrodinger's lecture we found a real life bonafide miracle. God is real. _And in other news I am published. First...
