Creative Writing
I have developed a lot of different pieces of writing over the years and I’m so glad to be able to share it with you here! Feel free to take a look at any of my works and I hope you find them enjoyable!
Guilty of Fraud
Ever feel like a fraud? Like you’re somewhere you don’t belong? “Oh, all these people are so much smarter than me. I don’t fit in with them.” Or “I don’t have the experience that they all do. How could I help in this situation?” Or maybe “I haven’t work on my stories in months. I…
Notes from #TENNWW
Hey everyone! I have the great opportunity to attend the online Tennessee Writing Workshop this weekend. I’m learning a lot and even have the chance to pitch to a couple literary agents (fingers crossed). With everything I’ve learned, I wanted to share a few things. Author E.J. Wenstrom gave a great class about busting writer’s…

It’s Okay to Say “No”
Do you know a “people pleaser” in your life? Maybe you are one? I’m certainly guilty of being one, and let me tell you: It sucks. As a people pleaser, you want people to like you. You don’t want to be viewed in a negative light. So, when someone asks you to do something for…
Bare Minimum
Ever have a day where it could be better? You get out of bed, go to work and you find yourself doing the bare minimum to get by? I had a day like that last week. The morning starts out normal. Get up, get dressed, drive to work, and hope for a good, productive day.…
Build a Kingdom
I’ve been working with a friend of mine to create different kingdoms and cultures based off the 16 different Pokemon types. We have a kingdom of fire, a kingdom of water, grass, fighting, etc. Between the two of us, it’s a lot of work and making each one unique is proving a challenge. Not only…
Everyone has those random thoughts you have throughout the day. Something might be stuck on your chest that you just can’t shake off. Writing helps me shake things off and maybe checking out these random thoughts might help you? Sometimes, we don’t realize that other people can think or feel the same way about a topic that we might think is off the wall.
Wonder
Take a deep breath and let it out. You’re sitting on your couch, your bed, or your floor, but you swear you’re in the world in your hands. Be it a book. Be it a video game. You feel the breeze on your face. Fly through the skies, jump out an airlock, stand on a…
Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms. To new moms, experienced moms, to moms of moms, and moms of angels. Happy Mother’s day to you. I hope your day isn’t blue, and I’ll speak for all us kids and express our gratitude. Thank you for the late nights you helped us with fright. For the…
Power of Characters
I saw a writing prompt the other day where it wanted you to list some people you admire and the qualities you admire best. Now, I do have people that I admire, but I’ll be honest, the first ones that came to my mind weren’t real people. The first people I thought of for this…

About Me
Hey, I’m Nikki! I am a nerdy geek who has a passion for writing, drawing, painting, and many other art media. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been crafting stories in my head whether they were original works or fanfictions. Over ten years ago, I started writing a novel and developing my skills as a writer, and, now, that novel is near completion! I do consider myself a Christian writer, but most of my stories are all fantasy and sci-fi based. Read more...
