New Wordpress Blog
I've got a new blog where I'll be posting information about my writing, as well and book and manga reviews. If you have a wordpress, I'd love if you followed me there.

I'm not closing up my livejournal, though it has been neglected lately. I'll keep it for anything private, as my wordpress will be public. -

Things I sewed
My sister took these photos almost a year ago, and I've been meaning to post them for a while somewhere on the Internet, but didn't. So I guess that today is a good day to do it... on LJ. I think I posted my first sewing project on here, but I've sewed quite a lot since then. Anyway, this is only what I sewed from July 2007 (thereabouts) to about ( Read more... )
