Sigh
Every so often I have one of those days when I feel like everything I've ever written has been completely terrible and I'll never sell anything because it all sucks. Just keep swimming... -
Non Voter
Every now and then someone on my FB will post a link to some contest online and ask me to vote for their friend or family member's entry so that they can get something awesome. It's usually a photo or video contest or something else that requires some talent to put together. And pretty much every single time this happens I will click the link, look ( Read more... ) -
Good Guy Kim Eun-Oh
What? A male protagonist in a drama who actually listens to the girl when she says she doesn't like him back (even if she is totally lying, the lying liar)? A guy who doesn't try to kiss the girl into loving him? A guy who even goes out of his way to make her feel better about it after a la, "It's okay, we're still friends, and I'm not going to try ( Read more... ) -
Lee Jun Ki
Assuming Korea has an equivalent to the Emmys, Lee Jun Ki needs to win one for his acting in Arang and the Magistrate. He emotes SO WELL. [Spoilers coming] In episode 12 my heart was tearing apart in my chest as he listened to Arang describe how in love Lee So Rim was with Ju Wal before she died. Jun Ki didn't have to say a word and I knew ( Read more... ) -
Titles and Orders
I've been meeting a lot of new people lately, which means I've been asked what I do a lot. I am getting a lot better at talking about my writing without being self conscious, but there is one aspect I never thought about until recently. In the last week I have had two or three different people tell me that their kids "are going to want to meet" me ( Read more... ) -
Time Traveling Romance
Spoiler Alert - If you have any interest in ever watching the K-Drama Rooftop Prince and have not done so yet, don't read this post.
Rooftop Prince ended in exactly the way I hoped it wouldn't--with the Joeson Prince traveling back to his original era and leaving the girl he fell in love with in the present. Forever. She does meet his reincarnation ( Read more... ) -
Crazy baby-hungry women
Venturing into the world of women trying to have babies, I have quickly discovered that many women are completely, utterly insane. 90% of the reviews for pregnancy tests on Amazon are from women who apparently compulsively take them in the hope that they can spot a pregnancy way before they miss a period because they are super impatient, I guess.

You're Beautiful
The problem with watching relatively old Korean dramas is that no one else is watching them and even if they were, I don't know anyone else who likes to watch them so I can't gossip about them. :p
I'm currently watching You're Beautiful, which is a 2009 drama starring Park Shin-Hye and Jung Yong Hwa and some other dudes. It's basically The Sound of ( Read more... ) -

Telling people you're going to try and have kids means never, ever being able to mention feeling sick ever again. -
So Many Projects
There are so many different things I want to do. I already have a young adult fantasy lined up after the epic fantasy trilogy I'm writing, and there's another epic series I am trying to develop mentally at the same time. And all the while, in the back of my head, is that comic I wanted to write, too. I wonder if I'll be able to master so many ( Read more... )
