As always, I can hardly believe it when another year ends. This time around, though, I have to admit that I’m mostly grateful for the fact that I get to have a new year, a new start. My reasons for this are simple–it feels like the time has come to really start over. And in […]

It's been a busy last few weeks. Between wrapping up final papers/projects, celebrating with friends, and getting back home for break, I haven't had a lot of time to myself. So far, this suits me fine. I've spent time hanging out with a bunch of different home friends, making cookies and catching up. We're planning
So, I promised an update a few days ago with regards to my querying progress. I guess you could say this is me delivering. 🙂 At any rate, I heard from the agent about my full request, and ended up earning another rejection. This person was very kind, and gave me a ton of good
So, I meant to update this blog at least twice as much as I actually managed to do over Nano. Which is to say, it would've been updated two times, since I managed one update over the course of a month. *facepalms* I am sorry, you guys. All I can say is that Nano, school,

Today, I'm going to be liveblogging as much as is physically possible given my work and class schedule. This blog will be updated as often as I can, though it's hard to say whether I'll be editing this document or making a new one. I'm aiming for 3-4k, so we'll see if I can actually

Anyway, because I hate when people DON'T do this, I'll be discussing topics in the order by which they are listed in my

Apparently, my half of our thesis workshop now has its own hashtag on Twitter. *points at title of LJ entry* I couldn't help but point out how cool this is to me. A long conversation commenting back and forth on a facebook post is what spawned this lovely hashtag, and I can't help but be

So, just thought I'd take a moment to keep you all informed about what's going on right now. (Keep in mind, this is in lieu of updating my personal diary, which I just don't feel like doing right now.) I sent in The Recruited full to the agent who expressed an interest, and I also

Couldn't help answering the question asked by the title of my last post. Though the weather is still beautiful here, my summer ends tomorrow with the start of a new semester. I go back to work and class on the same day, and I won't get a break from either until December. (Then again, December
I have eight days of work left before I go home until school starts. In the interim, I’m going to be on vacation for somewhere between 10 and 12 days, exploring Canada with the family. When I come home, there will be the hectic rush of trying to get all the last minute appointments taken
