Tornadoes and Words


K.M. Jenkins Writing Journal Graphic

Dear Journal,


It is April 16 and I am writing this as I hear tornado sires going off throughout the city. I’ve been putting off this post for a while now and finally got some time to sit down. Teddy is running around the apartment like a crazed corgi from the noise outside. But I am cooling it in my room two feet from my bathroom. There is an enormous benefit to being on the bottom level of an apartment complex. We are even on the ground some, so the bathroom is the only room without windows. Luckily, I can jump in there if something happens.


Things have been hectic around here this last week. It seems like I have been running every day since last Monday. But today I get to relax and work on things I love. Bonus, I got to take a nap and snuggle with Teddy for a little while. This last week I had appointments for the boys and myself. It seems like they were one right after another. Then the boys had their first soccer game on Saturday. It was pretty much only a practice session for the length of the hour. They got around to playing some rounds with the ball. Zeek did good throughout his time playing, but Zayne wasn’t having it. He wouldn’t even put the jersey on to support his team. I have a feeling the money we invested in for Zayne to play is going to go down the drain. But Zeek seemed to enjoy himself until he got tired. Then he was ripping the jersey over his head and taking his cleats off. We ended up leaving early, and I had to take a nap when I got home from sitting out in the sun for too long.


As for writing, I started revamping my REAM page. It is one tier right now for $5. You get pretty much everything I can offer in entertainment. I have been posting character interviews, character profiles, book excerpts, and so much more. Then I included the Vella I am working on. I didn’t get the chapter written like I wanted to this month, so I informed them it would update in May. My other project is getting up; The Seeker Games on REAM. I have two chapters that are available to read so far with another two coming this Friday. The plan is to upload the chapters as I edit them and release two chapters every other week. I’m mainly focusing on sharing content about Lennox and her friends from my half-blood academy series. Then when I move onto the next book, I can share content with those characters.


Honestly, I didn’t think I had much to write about journal but it turns out I did. Now the sirens are off and the sun is out, so I think it is safe to come out of my cubbyhole. Until next time. I’m signing off.
