I remember a couple years ago for NaNo, I wrote a story called Snegurochka. Recently I found myself thinking of how I could edit it. The ending was a real mess. Reading it over, you'd literally have to be in my head to know how any of the characters jumped from part A to part B. But reading over the tale again, I think I have an idea on how to ( Read more... )

NaNo has officially started. Now given what I did last year, I figured it would be better for me to have some sort of rest this year. However, I am going to be participating though in a rather odd manner. Most of my fanfics get stuck at the editing stage and while I know there's a national editing month for NaNo, I think I'll do this with everyone ( Read more... )

This post is otherwise known as Beyond Burning Dawn. I swear it's taking more brain bleach and sandpaper than I thought to get rid of thinking about it. Mainly because either something reminds me of being better than that book or being worse than it. Most of the time, it's the former. Then there's the fact that I've been leaning away from vampire ( Read more... )

If this were a letter, I would be starting off with "Hello Stranger" as is my usual greeting after not seeing someone for a long time. Sometimes I say it in sarcasm but most of the time I genuinely mean it ( Read more... )

The subject is a bit misleading but a majority of these books are from the public library. There are a few that are from my own library if that counts for anything. I should warn you that this is a very long entry and that I've split the entry up by title unless the review is short enough to be coupled with another cut ( Read more... )

It never ceases to amaze me on how I can just open my mouth and things come out. It wasn't something necessarily bad but it wasn't something you would reveal in good company either. Then again, it's more of society's restraints than my own. Mind you, I could have not said anything but my mouth works faster than my mind as it seems. No wonder ( Read more... )

Wandering around online, I found this meme, which helped in figuring out what exactly I was writing/editing. I needed to get a start, except my candles seem to have multiple split ends.

If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence (or more) from each of your ( Read more... )

I wanted to post this up yesterday but my mother was burning incense, which makes it really difficult for me to pick up the scents if I need to refer back to them while writing. Rarely do I order from BPAL, mainly due to the current shipping rate so I wait until there's a huge repertoire that I would like to order at any one time. This means I ( Read more... )

Bloody idiot, that is the first thing I have to say. Bloody idiot! And I am literally saying this as I'm not doing the typing for this post. I'm using my dictation software on Yuzuki. Why? Because for the past 48 hours more or less have been hell ( Read more... )

Another day done yesterday, another assignment down. Today, if I can get all my print assignments done and tomorrow, the last of my computer assignments. Then I'll be free to study for finals as well as continue writing. Because of the rush of the last couple of days, I haven't had a chance to write down my thoughts about the latest CSI episode as ( Read more... )
