Movies!

Monday, January 28th, 2008

So, it’s Monday again. The weekend is over, though it didn’t really feel like a weekend to me since I worked both Saturday and Sunday. *sigh* what happened to Monday-Friday, 9-5?
Anyway, remember that movie I mentioned in the last post. Well, that movie turned into 2 movies. 2 really good movies. And that means I [...]

Bad Blogger

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

I am soooo bad. I know I am so bad. I haven’t blogged in so long, and even this is a fly-by post.
Good news: I got my revisions done. My word count increased by 15k. I’m very happy with it.
Bad News: Still waiting on a number of companies to let me know about jobs. I [...]

Revising

Monday, January 21st, 2008

It’s past 2 a.m. here right now, and I’m just closing my WIP. I’m working on revisions for a story, and I’ve expanded it by 10k in a couple of days. Pretty unbelievable for me, especially since I had no plans to work on it this week.
Now, let’s hope that the extra words are useful [...]

Wanna Know Something about Me?

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

Well all, it’s been a trying few days. I’m searching for a new job, hopping from interview to interview, waiting for calls to see if I’ve been successful. But by some form of a miracle, I’m actually getting some writing done too which is pretty amazing for me.
But since I’ve been so busy, I’ve [...]

I’m On Top of The World!

Friday, January 11th, 2008

I’m feeling much better today folks, ready to take on the world! Well, that might be exaggerating, but I’m not down in the dumps anymore. Good things are happening and I’m feeling pretty damn pleased with myself. And one very good thing that has happened is that I’m going to be joining Phaze Publishing as [...]

Ick!

Sunday, January 6th, 2008

I think I spoke too soon in my last post. A personal incident which totally threw me off my game has left me procrastinating all this weekend. No writing, no blogging, nothing to do with furthering my writing career. My goals for 2008 took a backseat to my self-pity. *sigh* Now all I can think [...]

I’m Starting!

Friday, January 4th, 2008

I’ve made my decision on what I’m gonna start with and I’m starting today. I think this will be novella length, maybe 20K. I want it done, or at least most of it done before the end of the month.
It shouldn’t be too difficult. I’m really feeling the plot, the characters and I haven’t even [...]

New Year’s Resolutions

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

During a quiet spell at work today (yes, I worked on New Year’s Day, ugh) I took the opportunity to write out my resolutions. I rarely make resolutions–I never take the time to make them. But, like I said, work was quiet today and I decided to go for it.
Here’s what I came up with:
1. [...]
