So my local library is gearing up for Nanowrimo in a big way, at least on the teen front. I've asked about the adult side of the coin and there is some furious discussions about the idea, so hopefully something will happen on that front. I didn't realize how much I missed having real people to talk to about writing. Not that the Internet isn't ( Read more... )

So I signed up for picfor1000 again, even though I've had bad luck finishing stories for previous incarnations. I wound up with this picture this time around. Initially it didn't inspire me all that much, so I asked for ideas at the brainstorming post. I wound up three possibilities last night. One is outright original fiction.

With the Snowpocalypse upon me, I've been looking through my old files (and fighting my keyboard). It's depressing seeing all the fandoms and interests collected around me. I even found a fic for a very obscure old ABC fandom "Strange World". I watched it mostly because of Peter Wingfield. As fate had it, he didn't show up until the end of the ( Read more... )

Never has the "special snowflake" been so appropriate, since we're due quite a few of the darned things this weekend. *nervous ( Read more... )

So I've lost my mind and signed up for yuletide this year. I've offered up a bunch of fandoms, some obvious, some not-so obvious unless you've peeked at my book collection. I'm nervous with anticipation over my assignment.

mini_nanowrimo is going well. It's good to be writing again. I've done two fanfic stories and the rest of the days have been filled with original ( Read more... )
