Perhaps I need to use dynamite on this block
I should be writing. I decided to do a script for Script Frenzy. A video game script for which I already have a bunch of ideas and plans. But somehow I'm having a really hard time getting started.

Change
A few things have become clear to me over the past week or so. One of them is that it's time for a dramatic change in my life, a move to another city I think. The idea scares me more than I care to admit. I have always lived in Toronto, or at least I've lived here for as long as I can remember ( Read more... ) -
Gender, Children and Me
I've decided that if I have a child with Mark I won't reveal the sex of the child for as long as possible. I will avoid finding out until the child is born whether it has boy bits or girl bits ( Read more... ) -
Why NaNoWriMo is a Good Thing.
I've been doing a lot of thinking, and have decided that National Novel Writing Month is a wonderful thing. Like many wonderful things it isn't for everyone, but here are a few reasons why I think it is often a wonderful experience.
- It teaches you to ditch perfectionism. I don't think it's possible to write a good novel in a month for moat people ( Read more... )
