Busy, Busy Bee

Ok, so took a family vacation at my house, so we've been doing quite a bit. I got pretty good at writing, and then suddenly I'm just too tired! I'm going to try and write more tonight. I've discovered that I suck at planning ahead in writing, cause generally it changes as I write it. I did, however, make some astounding connections in my own story. So woot on that front. In other news, visited some local caverns today, and it was just too cool. Amazing some of the natural wonders in the world. I've been away from the nature front for a bit too long, I think. I got a cool cd that they played during a bit of the cavern walk, and I got a cool bat shirt with several sayings on it, my favorite being 'guano happens.' If you don't know what guano is, look it up. And I must say, there are some obvious stuff about bats that I thought everyone new and turns out they don't. Like, for example, that there are those that eat bugs and those that eat fruit. And, the floor of the cavern is... on the floor! That was probably the funniest question of the night. Anyways. Off to write I am, I am.

Tchao!

Almost

Almost there. I am so close to finishing this chapter! I know exactly where I want to end. And I am proud to say that I have a good bit of hte story planned out. The ending, that is. I have all these different pieces colliding into an amazing finish in my head, and I'm so excited! I wrote it down so I wouldn't forget. I'm bringing together a lot of the older pieces, which I found rereading the story, and a few new ones I'm introducing in this chapter here. So far, I'm at ten pages. Wow. That's my longest chapter yet! I think it's because I have a lot of talking in the beginning, though. The word count is only second highest. I guess I should say I think the page count is the longest. I never did go and look up chapter fourteen's page count. Lazy, me? Anyways, I can't wait for everyone to read this chapter. I'm really liking where it was going. I hit a bit of a wall, but damn if I didn't overcome it. I even liked how I overcame it. It was a nifty idea, I thought. You all will have to tell me what you think.

In the meantime, it is a good possibility that I might go to bed now. I haven't been getting as much sleep as I need, and as such I feel super tired at a paltry midnight!

Tchao!

Choo Choo

Chugging right along. I'm writing more now. But here's the sad part, I haven't written in so long, I've kinda forgotten what I've written. I have to go back and read my own story. In doing this, I realize it sucks in parts, which is just depressing. Makes me want to go and edit the darn thing. But one thing that makes me mad (possibly due to never having experienced the need myself), are complete stories, or half written stories, that undergo a complete revision. It just bugs me. Serisouly, I should write the whole thing, then revise it from there. That, to me, is the proper way things should be. Unfortunately all around, I was too anxious to write the whole story without commentary. Commentary helps. If nothing else it boosts a fragile ego. So, hopefully I shall get the next chapter up soon. :)

Cheers.

In other news, read Laurell K Hamilton's latest book, Blood Noir. I must say, I liked parts of it and I didn't. The beginning was ok, just a bit boring. It set up the rest of the story, so I realize the necessity. But I was sitting there reading and thinking, "when, when is the violence going to come in??" And then when it did, woohee, what a doozee! When that major thing happened in the middle, I was in awe of a stellar idea. I was so excited at all the possible directions this could go. And then the ending. The ending left me a bit wanting. It was good, but it felt a bit rushed. I'll be honest, this felt more like Micah to me. :( Oh well. And damn if Richard doesn't just piss me off. He reminds me sometimes of me ex, which is just terrible. And then, some of the stuff he did!!!!! And what Anita took back, that was an awesome idea. And what happened with Jason after the middle was just kewl. Anyways, the ending made me want more in an unfinished perspective. But the middle kicked ass. It just rocked. I can't wait for the next book. I'm happy to know she's already working on it. Hopefully, Edward will be there. :D I love Edward. He just kicks ass.

And that's all for now.

Moving Along

So it's a little bit slow, but it's going. I'm at a paltry 2000 words. I like how it went so far. Just kind of thinking of the next part. .. Ok, I'll be honest. I'm tired and going to bed. It's four in the morning. I'll hopefully get a chance to write more tomorrow. We'll see. Turns out after working, I don't really feel like writing. :( I'd rather watch Christian Bale, the hottest man on Earth right now. Hehe.

Tchao for now!

P.S. Dude, I'm watching the Machinist, and it's weird. I'm feeling seriously bad for Reznick. :(

At your markers!

Ok, I am beginning to write. Eventually, it shall get to you, dear readers. Heh.

Insanity Plea!

OMG - I am going insane! Crazy! I am shellshocked. And I still have two finals to go! Thus, writing has been postponed until a time when stress isn't slowly killing me. Sorry all, but dang if school didn't finally catch up. Amongst other things. So, hopefully in another week. :(

Thcao!

Been a while...

Yeah, it's been a while since I've posted even something so small as a blog. I've had some personal stuff come up that completely dominated my life for a little bit there. And now, the end of school seems to have popped up unexpectedly on me, and I am kind of panicking. Sooo... no writing.

However, today I sat and wrote for about an hour, and I was quite proud of myself. I didn't work on Ultimatum, rather the one shot I mentioned. I felt more in the mood for that, especially since it was already started. :D It is now four pages. Not that long, but it's coming along nicely. It's kind of a weird one shot. It doesn't have some grand plot, just some expression going on. Hopefully, it shall convey everything that I want it to. We will see, if I ever finish it. I have resolved, once again, to start writing everyday. So hopefully it will be finished sooner rather than later.

Anyways, just wanted to give a quick update saying I had finally written something again. Ultimatum will soon follow!

Tchao!

Just Starting

I just started writing the first draft of the one shot I've been thinking of. So far it's going well. But I don't even have two pages done. I'm glad I finally started writing it. You guys will get it much later. I will definitely be doing at least one draft. I figure, it will be easier to learn how to revise and edit on a small scale rather than waiting for me to finish a story. I also don't have to worry about losing reviews when I change the chapters, should I ever update. This is a big step for me, since I tend not to do drafts.

We shall see. I just wanted to put out a small update. I haven't abandoned the writing world. I've just gotten very busy.

Tchao!
