This cannot go on.

August 25th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I refuse to let myself go two weeks without posting here. Very very *nearly* two weeks is quite bad enough, methinks. So. What can I say?
Finally saw The Mummy last week, it was great. Saw WALL•E a couple of weekends ago, and it was also great. Fantastic. I loved it so much, I can’t wait [...]

Goals? Progress?

August 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I was looking at my writing goals just now — they’re tacked up on my wall, eye level in front of me; now accompanied by another 3×5 card with “DO NOT GIVE UP. NO MATTER WHAT!!!” written in about four vivid shades of Sharpie. I realize that not all of my goals have a date [...]

Last Friday I went to a midnight release party for Breaking Dawn with Lenneth and Johan (who kindly drove us, and Lenneth’s niece, down to Redding for the occasion.) I spent the evening finishing the last third of Eclipse, watching cute little emos!!!! people drift around; at midnight we picked up our copies and headed [...]

I put aside all of my writing projects early this month — okay, all two projects; Selene and Olivine — and since then, I’ve been brainstorming lists of things I like, things important to me, things that move me. I find, as I do this more, I hit things that really and truly resonate with [...]

Twilight, Stardust

July 21st, 2008 · 2 Comments

Finally broke my month-and-a-half not-reading streak by tearing through Twilight on Thursday, then Stardust with equal speed today. I’m starting to feel my imagination again; things are once more catching my eye, wandering away with my thoughts, and I can feel the juices stir ever so slightly.

Writing (that thing I’m not doing)

July 14th, 2008 · No Comments

(Blogging.…that thing I keep forgetting to do. Oy.)
For a month or more I’ve been in a severe funk, not writing, and not reading anything more than light manga or a short story. I haven’t been able to write as much as a regular blog entry — I posted thrice last week because, hey, I had [...]
