This evening, I just spent four hours researching the path of becoming a writer, as well as reading multitudes of articles written by published authors about the long, hard, and often times soul-crushing details of the literary world. I will be honest and admit that I grew terrified while reading this articles. Will my novels ever become published ( Read more... )

Venting in two places is better than venting in one. I originally posted this to the AVEN forum, but I thought I'd post it here, too. I'll just copy and paste everything, even about how I didn't want to originally post in my LJ. XD  I need a hug. :(

"I wasn't sure if this should go in the rant section, but since it is not about asexuality, I put it ( Read more... )

So, I'm in there cooking dinner when mom rings and asks me to help get her a drink. She's not feeling well at all today and she was watching August Rush ( Read more... )

LOL! They do! :D ( Read more... )

One thing that is always on my mind is the constant debate of what I am going to do with my life as a career. I've thought of everything from interior decorator to a pharmacist to a forest ranger to a realtor... plus about fifty different career paths in between. The problem is that I like so many things. The other problem is that my future job ( Read more... )

And no, I'm not talking about erectile dysfunction. I'm talking about the Encyclopedia Dramattica. I really don't get this thing and why people think it is so funny. Is it actually *meant* to just be a funny joke and to laugh at yourself, or is it actual hateful people that are so beyond retarded and bored in their life that they need to sit around ( Read more... )

I thought I would post this here, as well. I made a FurSpace account for my Jewel character and the entire account is just a creative writing exercise, but I thought I'd post it here, too. :) Should I make an LJ for this, do you think? That way, I can update her life without interfering with my own. XD

***NOTE*** THIS ENTIRE ACCOUNT IS JUST AN ( Read more... )

First off, dad's surgery went well. I really can't give an update because I don't know shit, and neither does my dad. His surgeon comes in on Monday so dad has to wait until then to talk to him. Hopefully, dad doesn't have MRSA. We'll see what next week brings. At least the surgery went okay as far as we know ( Read more... )

First off, I'll talk about commissions. I finished sketching the con book cover for Confuzzled. YAYY! It's being looked over by the Confuzzled committee for approval. Hopefully, they like it. :) Mace's commission is almost done and I'm starting the background for Exkhaniber's commission ( Read more... )

Finally. Dad went to the ER for the two holes that were blown open in his legs last night due to his osteomyelitis, however, they admitted him under isolation. He might get to come home tomorrow with a PICC line so he can do his IV antibiotics himself, but that all depends on whether or not he has an MRSA infection or not. They did a biopsy today ( Read more... )
