So I’ve been quiet lately. Painfully quiet, boringly quiet. I could blame it all on work and the stresses of daily life, but I have to admit it. I’ve been lazy on the blogging front.
However, I’m ready and willing to buck up. Starting today, Monday the 30th of June 2008, I pledge to blog on [...]

How do you take rejection? As a writer, how do you feel when a publisher says ‘nah’?
As I wait on a couple of submissions, I wonder about this. I’ve had both acceptances and rejections. Yes, the acceptances are better on the ego. But sometimes a really great rejection can be the stuff that will make [...]

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 [...]

Over the weekend I watched three movies. That’s what always happens when I finish a first draft, I spurge on DVDS. The three I rented were The Number 23, Evan Almighty and Trust The Man. And you know what? They weren’t half-bad.

We watched Evan Almighty first. We were in the mood for a little comedy [...]

I just caught the trailer for that new movie Beowulf. That’s a whole lotta naked Angelina Jolie! Has anyone seen it yet? I want to take my little cousin to see it for her birthday. Would it be suitable for a 10 year old?

It’s started. 70 Days of Sweat, Round 2, has officially begun. And although I haven’t written a word yet I’m already sweating like a pig.
I need 1000 words before I go to bed tonight and I still hav no clue which novella I’m gonna work on. Maybe a contemporary? Or the vamp that I still [...]

On Saturday night, I went to the movies to see I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. It wasn’t my first choice, I wanted to see The Brave One, but it was my friend’s turn to choose so I kept my mouth zipped.
I didn’t think I’d like it. I’m not a huge Adam Sandler fan [...]

On our last night in London, me and my sister decided to treat ourselves to a movie at the Odean theatre in Leicester Square. The movie that was playing was Atonement, something I’ve been wanting to see since all the hype began.
So we paid the steep price for our tickets (12.50 pounds sterling each!) [...]

I blogged over at the Twilight Fantasies blog today about summer blockbusters. Go check it out here and tell me what you think about this year’s summer releases. What sucked and what kicked ass?

I saw a few movies this week, but two stood out in particular.

The first was “Sixteen Candles”. How cool is this movie? I’ve only seen Molly Ringwald in one movie before, “The Breakfast Club”, and this movie cemented my status as a Ringwald fan. Sure, it’s not as good as “The Breakfast Club”, but it [...]
