He Cooks Spaghetti and Plays the Saxophone

Second chapter of ››Not With a Bang but With a Whimper is out. I’ve decided to extend it into a series of unrelated one-shots in the point of view of various newborns created during the Southern Wars as well as Victoria’s rampage in Seattle. 

And I’m working on a new fic involving the Denali Clan … I’ve got it all outlined, it’s longer and definitely more detailed than anything I’ve done before. 5000 word minimum chapters. Still writing the first chapter. It’s as long as I want it, and now I’m just … messing about with it. I’m hoping I’ll have it done and beta-ed by the spring/summer. 

I’m really excited about both new writing projects! 

And now I have a goal to write a chapter of Letters to the Dead a Week. It’s five hundred words a week at least, that’s not hard. 

Then again, it is. When I wrote Soul Searching, all the angst was just … easy. I’m in a different place now, it’s been nearly a year. It’s hard to go back to that semi-depressed manic twilight phase that got Soul Searching out, along with 20 + fics, in about three months solid. I should really get organized and figure out a working idea of how long this is, and what the plot will be. 

I FAIL AT PLOTS.

Eh. Enough whingeing!

Instead of writing, which I really should be doing, I entered a wild-card challenge at the Vesperarium. That means by January 27th I need to have made 28 graphics on the theme of the word “ring”.

10 down, 18 to go!

And … I’ve finished Doctor Who (all four seasons and specials). I’m watching Firefly now.

Joss Whedon is amazing! I want Dollhouse to hurry up and premier, so that when I’m done with Firefly I’ll have something of his to watch.

Gallery and New Fic!

Howdy Folks! 

First of all, NEW LAYOUT! It was about time for one, I was getting tired of the old one. This one has better page displays and wider pages, which works for my new graphics gallery! (OMG FINALLY)

So I have a re-write up of a one-shot I wrote a while ago, taking place pre-Twilight in the early stages of Esme and Carlisle’s relationship. Originally titled “I Will Be”, I did some re-writing and editing, and it is now known as “Merry Christmas”.

Merry Christmas is my entry for the Twilight Novel Novice November/December 2008 Challenge: For the November-December Challenge, write a story about any of theTwilight characters celebrating the holidays.

In other news, check by my graphics page, I’ve gotten a gallery up, resources and credits, a tutorial, graphics request page, and fillers for a page of usable icons and signatures and stuff.

So I’ve decided I want to get more -writing- done … I’ve been really focusing on getting a gallery up, and I’m nearly done with those graphics. So what to do now? Work on some fanfiction! I’ve definitely missed being a regular poster, and with Winter Break I can get all sorts of writing done. Who knows, I may even finish a chaptered fic about the Denali Clan that I’ve had bouncing around in my head.

I’m in!

Wow! On Pelirroja’s fanfiction site, I’m cleared for both posting fanfic and art. I’m incredibly excited, and a little bit shocked, because a few hours after I sent in my submission, I found a gaping canon error in the fic that I’d submitted. 

I’ll be in the second shifts of posting, that is, I won’t be able to post until July 5. 

When my account is active over there, I’ll add it to my links.
