(Untitled)
I was genuinely about to post a piece I've been working on recently, but Microsoft Office decided to suddenly leave my computer and tell me it's not installed (even though I know for a fact it is).
So ... fuck MEME TIME.
Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one ( Read more... ) -
Meats & Madness
Thought I should actually, you know, post something.
I've great heaping piles of material I could post, but I'm just not going to. So there.
This takes place shortly after Vivian enters the Neitherworld, and is staying at the Throckmortons' house with Aquilla, before they head off. This is the morning after they've arrived.

Black Glass
Antimony watched the ends of the robe flit about as he followed it. He always has to wear it, doesn’t he? The fabric flicked around a corner, and Antimony spun to follow. The pile of ledgers weighed heavily in his arms, dragging him down even further.
‘Hurry up, Antimony.’ Antimony rolled his eyes. Firstly, they didn’t need to hurry; they just ( Read more... ) -
Nurses & Nautics
From Millie.
Directions: Pick 10 characters from a certain fandom THE NEITHERWORLD, arrange or write their names down in random order, then answer the questions. No peeking at the questions first, okay?1. Maudlin Trickett ( Read more... ) -
Designs & Doodles
I've been meaning to do this for a while. I've scanned all the little doodly bits I've done in class when I should be working or listening, and jammed them all together for viewing pleasure.
I'm sure I had more. Particularly on lined paper. They're probably on the deck during the renovations. Or I might've handed them in. I don't mind handing in ( Read more... ) -
Melbourne Writers' Festival
Yes. That's right. Another journal-like post.
It is quite relevant, though.
I received a free ticket to the first day of the three-day event (valued at about $100) through Chisholm.
So good.
I met Rita (the super-sexy Irish woman) and Sue (my TAFE mum) at the station at about 8:30, and we took a train to the city with a few other students (mostly from ( Read more... ) -
A Slightly More Journalistic Post
I have written very, very little recently. I'm in a rather unpleasant rut right now, but it should be gone soon.
The other day, in Applied Writing, we were asked to write for 10 minutes about somethingorother.

Contests and Counties
‘Old Bolingbroke is getting older, I’m sure of it.’
‘Oh be quiet, Claxby, he’s just as old as he’s ever been. No more, no less.’
‘See, Mavis, I would have agreed with you the other day. But I’m sure he’s got an extra few wrinkles behind his right ear today.’
‘You are nothing but paranoid. He’s been this old for years, I hardly see why he’d ( Read more... ) -
Drawlings and Dinings
Such a liar by omission, I am.
I have indeed been writing every day, yes, but that does not mean you silly people can read it. You'll just have to wait.
Who am I talking to? No one reads this stuff unless I tell them to.
Ah well, here's something I whipped up for Story Structure. It's kind of dodgy in some places, because I was rushing through it, and ( Read more... )
