LJ is becoming useless
I've noticed that only very recent posts show up on my Friends page any more. Used to, if I got busy or my internet refused to work for a while (a constant battle), I could meander over to my Friends page and see what people had been up to. Not any more. If you didn't post it five minutes ago, it's gone. There is NOTHING on my Friends page. ( Read more... ) -

Shoot me now!
So, my flash drive died. The one with all my school powerpoints and study guides and syllabi. Some of that is posted or an early version is saved somewhere else or I can recover it from email. Then there are the "cannot be recreated or replaced" things like several unfinished SGA stories, some that are pretty long and close to being finished ( Read more... ) -
NaNoWriMo Update
I'm just past 33,000 words so 2/3 the way through. I'm a bit behind but I think I can catch up over Thanksgiving break. I plan on hitting that 50,000 mark by the end of the month, although I don't think that will be the end of the novel. I'm only about halfway through the story at best, so I think it's going to be more like 75,000 words, give or ( Read more... ) -
NaNoWriMo Begins!!
November 1 - so NaNoWriMo starts today. I am ridiculously excited, I think because I've wanted to participate again for years and always talked myself out of it due to a total lack of time. I don't have heaps of time now, but it's not as bad as some years and I kind of have this burning desire to write this book. I'm mostly ready - outline, ( Read more... ) -
One week to go!
One week until NaNoWriMo kicks off and I'm making progress toward getting ready. I think my outline is about two-thirds done. I've been working on plans for the spaceship and that is almost complete. I need to do some more work on character backgrounds and world building this week. I have to admit that I'm getting anxious to get started writing ( Read more... ) -
I did it!
I signed up for NaNoWriMo. I'm so excited as I've wanted to do it again for years. I don't really have any more time this year than I've had the last couple of years, but I signed up anyway. I think the HUGE craving to write has reached a point where I'm going to have to indulge myself. The novel I wrote last time was crap, pure and simple. I ( Read more... ) -
I must be crazy!
Why? Because I'm thinking about doing NaNoWriMo. Seriously. Usually I'm committed to writing a Secret Santa fic for Sheppard H/C community, but since that's an extinct critter now . . . I know. I should be finishing one of ten or twelve SGA fics I'm in the middle of. But for some reason, NaNoWriMo is calling to me like crazy this year, even ( Read more... ) -
Late Happy New Year!
Yeah, I know - late, as usual. There goes one resolution (LOL). On the plus side, I did manage to get my winter fic exchange story posted on time. Barely, but I made it. I didn't actually procrastinate like I usually do. I had the whole thing outlined and part of it written, but I was planning on doing the lion's share of the writing over ( Read more... )
