The rl project has been done for about a week and I haven't exactly much to show for the time that has elapsed since. I haven't even watched a significant amount of TV (by my standards anyway). The time just disappeared more or less.

I did start posting my 2011 NaNoWriMo novel, a Paul Temple fanfiction, and so far, the traffic stats show no ( Read more... )

Instead of working on my rl project like I should, I have been doing all sorts of other thing. Like editing fanfic, writing fanfic or deleting a few thousand youtube videos (see stick post on top). I blame rabid plot bunnies and copyright owners ;-)

At the least with the fic writing, I have something to show for the time spent: a missing scene for ( Read more... )

Yesterday, purely by accident, I discovered that there was a sixth and final series of Wire in the Blood which I have never seen during the show's original run. Looking forward to watching it, although I might save it for when I finish my current rl project on which I am majorly procrastinating already.

Haven't updated this thing in ages, mostly because I'm lazy and forgetful, but on the other hand, there hasn't been much fannish stuff going on lately, aside from watching way too much TV. Right now, I'm watching my way through various 80s shows like Simon & Simon and Magnum P.I.. Haven't started watching the fourth season of Republic of Doyle, as ( Read more... )

So, I made it this year. Despite some trouble during the final week, including a two day migraine, I managed to write a 50008 word novel during the month of November. The novel isn't finished and there will be some heavy duty editing involved, but I hope to finish it by the end of the year. Maybe I'll actually manage to post it some day. I still ( Read more... )

Four more days, not counting what is left of today, before the end of NaNoWriMo 2012. Word count wise, I'm well on target. I doubt however I'll be able to type the end under the story by the end of November just yet. I have several plots to wrap up and, in fact, two main plot elements have just got under way yet. The crime wave continues unabated ( Read more... )

Aside from today where I spent too much brain energy on other stuff, things have been going well in nanolannd. I'm about 1.5 days ahead of schedule. I still have no idea where my novel is going to lead, but so far the plot the characters have come up with, has, while at times rather surprising, not been too crazy. It's really starting to develop a ( Read more... )

Week 2 has struck slightly early this year. For those not familiar with the phenomenon, the second week of NaNoWriMo is where the going gets though for a lot of writers and it appears I'm one of them this year. After throwing a lot of semi-random events into my novel the first week, I now have to start thinking about where all this is going to lead ( Read more... )

The crime spree that is my novel continues. Now with supernatural elements! Out of nowhere, I had a psychic show up and have a vision of the death of my protagonist. Of course, I'm not going to kill Jake. At least I hope not, but seeing how the story is developing a life of its own, there is no way to be sure ;-) I might however kill the throw-away ( Read more... )

Day 2 was considerably harder than day 1, but I managed to make it to just over the target total, even though I had to stay up a bit longer than usually in order to do so. Part of it was due to me spending all afternoon in town running various errands and so having less time to write, but I was also starting to feel a little lost in my plot. I use ( Read more... )
