So the dead computer DID fix itself and it's alive again (12 years and still chugging) I was able to get everything off of there. Weirdly I was missing some class notes on the external drive so I'm glad I was able to get back in. Chrome no longer works at all but that's it. Everything else is fine ( Read more... )

I am finishing up the 80s monster hunter novel for na/o and then moving on to the something new. It's not going as fast as I would like but it's going. I'm up to one of the biggest battles (but I do dislike writing battles...I'm not much on reading them either). I was hoping to do a cozy fantasy/mystery but it just wasn't gelling. I had the three ( Read more... )

And for once I have something for thefridayfive

1. Where do you get ideas/inspo for your writing?Literally everywhere. Sometimes it's a place I've traveled to or maybe some historical tidbit. It might be a cryptid or two or a haunting. Sometimes it's a person I meet or maybe a book/show/movie I've seen and think but what if it went this way? I'm also big on ( Read more... )

And I'm not alone. Even Sesame Street put out a meme on social media today saying it's okay to be anxious. Maybe so, Grover but it sure feels like hell. It's the 'there's nothing I can do' part of it that I can't get past. I'm sure that's true of a lot of Americans going into tomorrow. I mean yes I voted already and there's nothing more I can do ( Read more... )

spook_me has its master post up and already there are so many good stories up, so many fandoms. I can't wait to dive in. I'll share mine in a bit. I wanted to get both of my stories done and today I did finish the second one which is also my fandomtrumpshate story. I was struggling with it for months but I think it turned out okay. I need to clean it up.

thanks to evil_little_dog for ( Read more... )

My main achievement was to get the MRI on my back today and not clean any of the things I needed to clean. Whee.

I did get a lot of writing done.

so enjoy the stories. Since my spook_me story is long I'll post it here tomorrow. Have another long one (that is getting so ignored right now. Ah, so we don't like seeing the sex worker aspect of Angel Dust)

I started in the coat closet because it's stupidly full of absolute bullshit in bags. Out of bags and just ridiculousness. My living room looks like a bomb went off. Four days of digging around and I'm not done. If my landlord saw this he'd probably pitch me. I have found a coat that slipped off the hanger that I DO NOT remember buying (but I ( Read more... )

After the three festivals in three days I needed today off so it was just grocery shopping, cleaning house and writing and whoo hoo I finished my short story for the Invisible Women open call, it's almost at the 5Klimit (yikes). I'm not sure Luna is invisible enough but I like her. I need to get this beta read.

Yesterday fandomgiftbasket did the reveals so let me ( Read more... )
