That's the first thing, and it's not necessarily by choice, I'll tell you that much. I'll get to why in just a second. But still? BRUH. If last week was a test, then I passed that joint with flying colors! All the craziest things in the
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 22 (5/30/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/05/31/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-22-53016/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS Wow. I think this week is probably going to be the week you guys get to watch me throw in the towel. At least temporarily. Until my life gets a little less hectic, that is. So, updates. Well, things are pretty much a hot ass mess at the moment, and the world has

Reine My rating: 5 of 5 stars For the first few chapters, I was a little bored with the premise. Lol, like, "oh brother, here's yet another tragically beautiful, thrown-int0-a-new-world misfit." And I bucked a bit, not really feeling connected with Rylie's somewhat aloof and stuffy character. At FIRST. But
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 21 (5/23/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/05/24/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-21-52316/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS Have you ever just said to yourself, "I'm so done with _______ ?" Yeah. I had that thought this morning. I've been really trapped inside of my own head lately. I've been doing lots of reflecting, mourning, thanking, inviting in, and also letting go. Just lots of emotional shit, really. I'm trying
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 20 (5/16/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/05/16/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-20-51616/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS Ok, so we're coming down to the wire here. There are only two full weeks of preparation left (this week and next week) until the week of the big move to Tucson!

For about 50% of this book, I was really annoyed and, dare I say it, bored as hell. I felt as though a lot of the story dragged, mostly because Katniss spent a lot of time being a head case

I feel like all of my days are on a cray cray loop. Wake up, write, baby morning routine, breakfast, baby play, clean, baby nap, work / write / pack /
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 18 (5/2/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/05/05/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-18-5216/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS SO! This past week! The short version? Creativity on FLEEK, bitches! And my life game? UPGRADING. Update’s a little late this week because there’s so much that’s been going on! To start, the countdown to Arizona has begun! Woot! We’ll be moving within a month, and so lots of things are happening:
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 17 (4/25/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/04/26/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-17-42516/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS So my word count for this week was ABYSMAL, and to be honest, I struggled with the notion that not only should I cancel the pre-order of The Iron Maiden, but that I should also just cancel my author writing life, lol. But I’m not, obviously. There’s no way I’m going to
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 16 (4/18/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/04/18/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-16-41816/) - THOUGHTS, RAMBLINGS, WHATEVS Not really too much to say here. The week started off strong, as usual, and then it relaxed. A lot. But not in a bad way. Spent some more great time with family, and that felt awesome, especially since I’ll be moving back across country in about 50 days! :*-( This lax

I haven't picked up a romance novel since I was 10 years old, and I'm so glad I chose this one to reanimate my romantic adventures!

Just six big ones. Lol! (Talk about raising the bar...) Believe it or not, keeping my goal list small makes my focus all the easier to maintain, lol. Oh! And I've also included my writing & book production schedule, as well as my creative training / course schedule,

(Basically, a lot got done but it was hard to do, I hit a lot of snags, and things moved pretty slowly. It was truly an uphill battle.) But the point is... Q1 is officially OVER, son! And I

I think I said this before, but sometimes it's difficult knowing what my actual abilities are (putting in creative work for at least 12 hours a day) and
- [Weekly Hustle & Creative Wins: WEEK 12 (3/21/16)](http://www.colbyrrice.com/2016/03/21/weekly-hustle-creative-wins-week-12-32116/) - So last week held its shares of victories and disappointments, but I soldier on! The main bummer last week, honestly, was that I did NOT make the semi-finalist list for the Book Pipeline contest. I'd entered with my Ghosts of Koa novel, but it didn't quite make the cut. It hurt for like a second, lol,
