Well this isn't even close to the amount of writing I wanted to get in today, but it's at least meeting the basic minimum requirement. Hopefully when I have Tuesday and Wednesday off, I can dedicate a bunch more time to catching up on my word count. And maybe *gasp* even getting my NaNo word count in!

As I was telling landline earlier, I really don't have ( Read more... )

This was a rather interesting weekend, though quite fun. Saturday I ended up spending most of the day with my sister shopping and taking care of chores. Afterwards we had movie night with friends, so to be honest I didn't get to a computer until around 1 AM Sunday morning. And I had intended to sign up for Six Sentence Sunday as well, so before I ( Read more... )

Happy first week of NaNoWriMo all my fellow authors out there! And although the continuation of my sequel is coming along quite nicely, I still have quite a ways to go. And on top of that I missed writing anything on Saturday, but I did have fun going shopping instead. I seriously hadn't been shopping for fun in quite some time. Since before ( Read more... )

So my typical hour-long commute ran to an hour and a half today. Even after I made sure to leave the house a bit earlier than usual, and all that jazz. Some weeks you just can't win, and I'm thinking this is one of them. Or at least today is. I did get a chance to listen to a few episodes on Stuff You Missed in History Class, so it wasn't a total ( Read more... )

The LAN party last night was amazingly fun, even if going back to fetch computers and lug them back upstairs wasn't quite as fun. It's an excuse for me to get more arm workouts in at least, right? I think one of my favorite games last night was Team Fortress 2. Now that it's free to play, we had a damn fun time at the LAN with it, and ended up ( Read more... )

Despite all the numerous distractions I suffered with today, I was able to finally get my word count in - and then some! Here's hoping I can complete this by the 31st with the LAN party tomorrow and all my typical social fun I like to have on the weekend. I just have a few hundred more to get in before the end of July's Camp NaNo - I hope I'm up ( Read more... )

Terry might get more than he bargained for with this 'Get Out of Jail Free' card. His temperament just isn't cut out for this level of death and destruction. At least not yet. It's a good thing he'll be getting a lesson in that area soon, from both Brakkis and Rolph. Did I mention this was kind of a werewolf riot ( Read more... )

And now we get to a character I've been planning out for some time now. He's going to play a very important role in the book, so coming up with a name for him was quite difficult. I literally spent all afternoon coming up with precisely what to use. And he's turning out to be much more of a sympathetic character than I had initially intended. And I ( Read more... )

Some writing done over lunch today, though I admit I got totally distracted with this article, and the inevitable co-worker drama. It's few and far between at my place of work (thank goodness!), but when it rears its ugly head it's always a bit disconcerting. Suffice it to say I ended up getting Subway instead of a lunch out with friends as ( Read more... )
