Musings

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

I’ve delayed writing. I’m thinking about turning it upside down and inside out. Sounds messy. I also realized that I have zero female characters in my novel. Which makes me wonder what kind of book I’m writing. I have also come up with a semi-plausible twisted faerie tale very loosely based on Red Riding Hood [...]

Testing technology

Friday, August 13th, 2010

I am currently lying in bed, Luna is protecting us from the cats that are fighting outside, and well … I won’t say that Aaron is snoring. While I am typing this up on my iPod, Tappi, I am looking at the time. I really should get to sleep. I bought several notebooks tonight. I [...]

Overhauling

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

Yup. I am currently in the process of overhauling the entire story, cleaning it all up, changing locations so that it’s mostly featured in Canada, and fine tuning plot points. Partially why I’ve been so quiet.

Doing Something For Others… a bit of a Rant

Friday, March 26th, 2010

I’m on facebook (who isn’t, really?). There’s a meme going around. For the first five people that sign up, you must create something handmade for them and send it by mail by the end of the year. Which has got me thinking. It seems that people only do things like this when there’s a meme. [...]

Backing It Up

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I came home from vacation Sunday, and yesterday was the day my computer went all wonky. Greg got fried. There was a really bad malware infestation yesterday so I had to wipe everything out. I did make sure to save my resume, my NaNo novel and Push the Limits. Everything else, as much as I [...]

Vacation

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

I’m in the middle of vacation. It’s not really vacation per say, as I am only asked for two days off work. (Well, really, four in a row, but big whoopdi do. I get two days off in a week anyway.) I’m at my parents place in Winnipeg, and had a crazy time this afternoon [...]

Validation

Saturday, February 20th, 2010

I remember having a conversation where I was discussing with somebody that people have a tendency to need validation. They don’t even realize that they seem to crave people’s opinions. But, for the most part, people do. Take me for instance. For the longest time, whenever I wrote a story, or a scene that I [...]

Overhauling Changes

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

I am in the middle of changing the layout of my blog. The current layout was always supposed to be temporary. Now, I realize that butterflies really do not suit me. I’ve been making some huge personal changes (almost akin to jumping off a cliff and hoping I sprout wings so I can fly) in [...]

Unintentional Hiatus Now Over

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

It’s been five months since my last update. What have I been doing all this time? Procrastinating. I did National Novel Writing Month, aka NaNoWrimo (aka NaNo) and on November 19 I went in to have my eyes altered for the rest of my life. I had laser eye surgery. So, because of that I [...]

Update to Short Stories

Friday, July 24th, 2009

I wanted to try my hand at a short story. Some may think it rough, but overall I’m quite satisfied. I did this in about thirty minutes or so as a bit of a test, so to speak. It’s called Stars, and can be found in the Short Story section underneath the Novel section. Hope [...]
