Happy Birthday, Sarah! -
Phoenix Comic-Con
So this was a thing that happened. IDRIS dress? Turned out awesome. The Part Like a Timelord party? Indescribable.

Or Not
I suck. I've got about five days left and, what, a little less than 40,000 words I really ought to write.
Seriously. What the fuck else are you gonna do, nepnthe? I couldn't care less how cute Bunny is right now. Call the parents, finish this stupid book so you can get on with your life.

Progress . . . ?
I have been working on my book, which is good. Did about six pages today, which is about 2,000 words. Not bad. I'm not sure how far along I am altogether, but I can say with certainty that it's not as far along as I need to be. Sucks. In part it's because I'm at a place that's exposition. A lot of exposition, and weirdness, with the aliens having ( Read more... ) -

A lot has happened since my last post. I won NaNoWriMo with about half a book to show for it. I went to Japan for about 11 days and spent five of them with a cold. Got laid off from my job. Moved out of the apartment I've shared with my twin for almost three years to stay with the chica I roomed with about a year and a half ago when Chrissy was ( Read more... ) -
Word count
I've got a lot of news, but I chose to focus on what matters most: WriMo word count. I currently stand at 33,518-ish which is a mere 1600 words below where I need to be; at least I've managed to keep my head up and not sunk impossibly further down the hole. In fact, I'm sort of flying in my own Wri-Mo cheating way. I was surprised to open my mail ( Read more... ) -
WriMo, Day5
WriMo update: over the past two days I did about 1,400 words. Not bad, but not fantastic. I'm about 2,000 words off schedule. Not insurmountable. And I think one of the most historic elections of my lifetime is enough of an excuse to slack off a little. As long as I make up for it.
I went to a coffee house called Monica's for WriMo tonight. It was a ( Read more... ) -

I suppose I'm going to fall behind another day in WriMoing (I know, I know. I'll regret it later). But I feel the need to write a rhetorical letter to the characters on the Sarah Connor Chronicles.
Sarah: You are awesome. You are kickass. You make Broklyn cops wish they had stones like you. That being said, YOU CAN EAT A DOUGHNUT ONCE IN AWHILE.

WriMo Day 2
I need to be off to bed, but I before I throw in the towel, i just want to post to the universe that I did 3,133 words today. Yeah, that's no typo. 3,133. And that was working on what's likely the most important part of the book to get right. It's not perfect yet, but I think I managed to get a little closer to that scene working. And a few baby ( Read more... )
