Day 74: Blog keeping is not my strong point.

Yeah - I suck at keeping a blog. I keep forgetting to update everyone on what I'm doing, not that it's very interesting, so maybe everyone else is just better off not actually knowing, because it won't benefit them in anyway whatsoever.

So, recently, I've been doing loads of photography (it's important and I do like taking photos :P ) and have been updating my flickr:

It can be found at that link, just in case you wondered. And yes, another shameless plug.

This month, I had 9 consecutive days of not writing after 4 or 5 days of days where I wrote over 1,000 each day. I don't know how I can vary so much in a month, but yesterday I wrote 3,263 words and so far today, I have written 1,065 words. I'm feeling a lot more positive about my writing this week. When I got my proof copy, I read it and thought "This is utter crap" which really knocked my confidence. I'm not sure if I'm going to rewrite it or not, or just leave it as a project that I completed and it was practice for greater things to come. Possibly.

Right now, I've started a short story/exercise where I put iTunes on shuffle, and write scenes for this story depending on the song. The scenes are inspired by the mood of the song and the lyrics. It's pretty fun, and I like music so it does help with writing. Right now though, I'm having a bit of a chill by listening to Basshunter - I love Basshunter xD His music is my guilty pleasure... like James Blunt's music too.

So that's what I've been doing. Take a Bite has reached 39,276 words so far, and it's a way off from being finished, so perhaps I'll be able to get up to 60k or so with it - not sure how much more I'm going to be writing. I think another 20k definitely, although I'd like it to be a little longer than that.

Happy writing.

Day 67: The sun is out, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are...

YOU! :D

So, the past couple of days, I've been slacking on my writing cause I'm bad and have been doing photography instead, which is a good thing in some ways. It's been sunny and the sunshine puts me in a good mood, so yeah :)

For those of you who don't know - I got a flickr account to show off let people see my photography.
Here's a link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/revolutionofperception/
Clickie the photos to make them bigger /shameless plug *shifty eyes*

Also - my proof copy of my NaNo novel arrived yesterday and I love it :D The writing does need work and I've spotted some spelling mistakes in it already (oops) and I need to re-write some of it, but I think the plot is good. Maybe the characters need a bit more development, I'm not sure - I might ask Heather to critique some of my writing cause she's nice like that, and has been wanting to read it :P
I'll take some photos of my proof when I remember later :)
