I've decided to cancel my eHarmony subscription. I've put more effort into it this time and still nothing's happening. Clearly this isn't being blessed by God, so there's no point to it anymore. I'm a little conflicted on whether or not to keep the info up or delete it entirely... it seems a waste to just delete all that info after all the trouble ( Read more... )

A fan-made movie trailer for the book Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. Not a bad introduction to the series if you've never read the books and non-spoilery too!

I'm pretty sure this book is going to be made into a real movie, though it's only mentioned on Brandon Sanderson's blog - no casting or anything done yet. If handled right, this book ( ( Read more... )

Someone at one of the fan communities I frequent posted a link to a video trailer of a character creator for an online MMO game. I have little to zero intrest in online MMOs, but this character creator? *drools* I am soooo tempted to download the free trial so I can try to create all my original characters.

A few weeks ago I accidently discovered a new show. It was a Friday night and the friend I usually hang out with on Fridays was out of town so I was just flipping through channels, waiting for something to come on. I came across an anime movie that stunning, visually, so I kept watching. Normally I stay away from anime, but I'd recently watched ( Read more... )

I just got an email back from the agent I mentioned in the previous entry. Just one line, but it let me know that he is still reading after chapter one! Woohoo!

On an artistic note, rufftoon has some fabulous Avatar art on her DeviantArt gallery with comics too! Just beware of Season 2 finale spoilers.

I finally finished the Avatar: The Last Airbender seasons. Seriously, I have not been this excited about a story since I learned that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows had a publication date. I was literally on the edge of my seat watching the season finale and I can only hope that Season 3 isn't too far off ( Read more... )

I have discovered Avatar: The Last Airbender. I started watching out of bored curiosity when I was babysitting and got interested enough to wonder about how the show got started. Thanks to the miracle that is the internet, I found all the Avatar episodes here!I like the characters, I like the animation, the story is good, and the old four elemental ( Read more... )

D'ye need a t-shirt brother?

*covets*

wittingshire had a link to a really interesting article from the Washington Post: Pearls before BreakfastWhat would happen if a world famous musican threw on a pair of jeans, settled himself on the street with his instrument and played like any other street musician? Would he be recognized? How much would he make? Would his genius for playing even be ( Read more... )

With synaesthete7's recent posts on publishing, "hook" writing, and whatnot, I started thinking about my own recently finished fantasy novel. It's nowhere near ready for submitting to an agent, but it's hard to improve your own writing when you're not sure what improvements need made.

So, surfing around various writing blogs this weekend, I found the ( Read more... )
