A dose of randomness
Jan. 19th, 2007 10:17 amA couple dreams over the last week or so, didn't feel like writing any of them up as solo entries: ( Read more... )
We've gotten a couple more video games around here over the last couple weeks. Of course, the PS2 isn't in my room so I haven't played them too much. We got Ultimate Spider-Man and X-Men Legends 2.( Read more... )
From video games to TV: We're almost at the official start of the return of cool TV. We've just had a few shows here and there for the last few weeks. I'll talk behind the cut but be non-spoilery, don't worry:( Read more... )
So, writing week one is over, so I'm off-again from a week. I think it went fairly well... a bit of a slog at times, but at least with the promise of a break ahead it helps me slog through them. Mostly I worked on a couple longer form works, but I did start and finish a short story, based on a random idea I had walking home. Once I edit, I'll probably actually post it online cause I'm not all that pleased with it. I know that sounds assbackwards, but it makes sense: the stuff I think might be at least halfway decent I'll try to get published in a magazine or something, and some of them are picky about buying a work if it's appeared anywhere else, including simply online. So, directly posting something usually means I don't intend to try to get it published. But it still needs some cleaning up. Not that I think the story's horrible or anything though, or I'd be too embarassed to post it at all. And, most importantly, I got it done. I've mentioned before finishing is always a big problem.
And before I go, Yet another edition of Wiki Random Battle:
