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

So, I'm well aware that it's been a while since I've posted. Blame my crazy schedule this year, the social life I'm attempting to have, and mostly my epic procrastination skills. Apologies. 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

I don’t think it’s legal to be this bored on a Saturday night on a weekend when you’re not working. Seriously, I should be out partying it up or at least hanging out with people right now. The one lame thing about this town in the summer is that most of the people I talk

I’m back at school working for the summer and on the whole it’s kept me extraordinarily busy. I work two shifts a day, sometimes three, every day of the week. And I work every other weekend, including the one coming up. Between that, hanging with my remaining roommate and hanging with work people, things have
In the time since I’ve last blogged, I’ve taken a huge step forward with my novel The Recruited. The other day, I received a partial request for the first 50 pages of the story. I literally cannot begin to express how thrilled I am, both that someone is taking an interest in this project and
