Writing in a Fishbowl: Day Two

Posted on March 20, 2016 by nnmh

5:35 am: I may have pushed myself too hard. I’ve been lying in bed ticking for the past hour. It’s hard to sleep when your legs are moving so violently. This will complicate Day Two. from A Splintered Mind http://ift.tt/1RsPEq2 READ MORE

Writing in a Fishbowl: Day One

Posted on March 19, 2016 by nnmh

As I hinted at yesterday, I have long wondered if I could do what Dean Wesley Smith does, and write about everything I do that day. I’m not a successful author with legions of readers who care about how I spend every moment, but I thought that writing out my day in public would force READ MORE

Some Things to Think About

Posted on March 19, 2016 by nnmh

It’s late, and I’m getting ready to hit the sack. Today was a good day. I accomplished only two things on my ThreeDo list, but they were big ones. Tonight, however, a friend of mine plays the latest Splatoon Splatfest without me, the TV isn’t on, and my mind is burdened with glorious purpose. Unlike READ MORE

ADHD: A Nightmare of Disorganization

Posted on February 25, 2016 by nnmh

I recently came upon an old note where I’d recorded a nightmare. Apparently, I was cleaning, organizing, and fixing my life in this dream. It sounds like a wonderful dream, right⸮ Soon, the landlord and some workers came over. At first, I was immensely relieved that I had already been organizing my apartment. Here it READ MORE

ADHD vs. Guest Speaking. I won.

Posted on February 20, 2016 by nnmh

Ever find your ADHD focusing on everything that irritates you? Today’s (long) article shows how that happened to me on a large scale recently. Fortunately, training, humor & hyperfocus helped me stay on topic. Read on! I had a big week two weeks ago! So big, it wiped me out about 10pm last Wednesday. Oh, READ MORE

OverDrive Drive

Posted on February 1, 2016 by nnmh

I’d like to get my book into my local Salt Lake County Library as well as other libraries. Since my book is carried by Overdrive—which most libraries support for ebook loans—I thought this would be easy. I’ve even thought of donating copies. Unfortunately, the only way to accomplish get the book listed with my library READ MORE

Mormon Musings: Does Prayer Cure Mental Illness?

Posted on February 1, 2016 by nnmh

This is a new series I hope to publish over the next few Sundays. I’ve made myself a goal of writing an article every day for my various freelance projects, and since Sunday is the day of rest, I figure I can explore recent statements by my church leaders on mental health while not running READ MORE

Cookie Time: ADHD Distractions as Therapy

Posted on January 31, 2016 by nnmh

As you may have noticed, I have ADHD. One of the ways it manifests itself in my life is something I affectionately call Multi-Irons Syndrome. This means that as I get bored, I have a tendency to abandon one task to pick up another. The shinier the better! Over the years I have trained myself READ MORE

You Should Read “ADHD According to Zoë”

Posted on January 22, 2016 by nnmh

I finished Zoë Kessler’s book “ADHD According to Zoë: The Real Deal on Relationships, Finding Your Focus, and Finding Your Keys” last summer, but then I became caught up with my own book as I fought to finish it. Now that I’ve caught my breath, I’d like to correct that oversight and let my ADHD READ MORE

Saying “No” to Suicide by Douglas R. Cootey

Posted on January 22, 2016 by nnmh

According to the CDC, suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US for all ages. Even if the numbers seem small compared to other causes of death, the hole left in our lives by somebody who took their own life is immense. Saying “NO” to Suicide explores this growing problem in our READ MORE
