My personal hierarchy of creative writing

Had a lunch date with a girl. To some who listen to the blogcast, it's the same girl who I had to reschedule with because of blog-related stuff. Well, this is the second one so far, and so far so good. However, during the commute to Toronto, I was obsessing over a missed opportunity to work on my novel. But I figured that I was doing the right thing, since I rea… Continue

Heading into Week Two

Week two is usually the time where most novelists are over the 'honeymoon' of writing so much so fast. Getting to 10k was cool, but the push from there to 50k loses a lot of people. For me, I love week two.. I'm usually way behind anyways. And it's true, I've only got about 3.4k to my name, but that's not for lack of trying. Week one is usually filled with so much STUFF to do. It's tradition that the site breaks. This year there was an amazing round of power outages, and servers straight up ba… Continue

Story Thus Far

I don't know how much these blogs or comments can hold, so I'm going to refrain from copy-pasting the first couple of days' worth of my novel up here. Nevertheless, I'm very eager to kind of show it off, especially ever since the switch was forced upon my by my muse. I finally made the switch official, yesterday, on the Nanowrimo site, by clicking the dropdown and changing the genre from Fantasy to Sci-Fi. Technically, it's a political murder mystery with elements of the fantastic thrown in. B… Continue

Inspiration

OK so I finally found a story line that's worth writing. It's kind of odd how sometimes things have to sit on the back burner for about a month before things get anywhere. I don't have a huge word count as of yet, but I'll just have to push the envelope to get the words out in time. Continue

For you spreadsheet geeks out there

No writing yesterday

Not one word. And I have a job interview this morning, so we'll see how that goes. Wish me luck, Nano peeps! Continue

No vlog for you!

Sigh. Isn't it always the way? I have a ginormous zit on my chin now. There may be some of my ego I'm willing to sacrifice but not THAT much. We shall wait until it's gone. Continue

Day 1-Still Alive

So I have a guildie in town, major clean for parental unit visit today and recovering from a very bad headache, AND still managed to meet my quota for today. 1758. How did you go for you? And may the plot bunnies be plentiful tomorrow! Continue

The vlogging will continue until morale improves!

Yes, I will try to do a little vlog entry every day (or as often as possible) as we march through November. Dunno why. Glutton for punishment I guess. Continue

I hadn't realized I could blog here

So I waffled back and forth as to whether I really was going to do this thang. At first I was all excited to support Bre. And then the more I read about it I freaked out about the fact that I didn't have a novel to work on. And then I was gonna flat-out quit because of the demands of personal blogging + WI blogging. I thought, "the last thing I bloody well wanna do is Nano on TOP of everything else I've got going on." Well, as most of you know, the WI monkey is off my back and I've put my perso… Continue

Dude, where's my reading comprehension?

In my drive-by signup to this site, in between being so pleased to find it and struggling to spell my own name (it was really late, hey) I didn't realise Ning.com will not allow you to edit the profile blurb once you set it. Oops. I never really got a chance to introduce myself, so.. Hi! I'm Jive, and I've been owner of my own small Raiding Resto-Druid themed WoW-blog since about Patch 2.4, which you can find here. I've known all about the Blog… Continue

He Just doesn't know

Many, if not all, of you have received an email from Chris Baty, the Nanowrimo program director, outlining the month of Nov and what we can expect. I would ask you to inspect what he listed on November 13th: "November 13: Nothing really happens on November 13." /Shakes head. Oh Chris, poor unaware Chris, how little do you know... Continue

Howdy

So they say that everyone has one novel in them. I've had something forming in the back of my mind, and maybe this would be a good excuse for bringing it out. I'm glad I stumbled across this while reading Pugnacious Priest and Gun Loving Dwarf Chick. I've been playing WOW since April (2008) so my feet are still wet. But I've loved the game and I love the intricate lore woven into it. WOW is pretty… Continue

Multimedia

With the fun addition of having much of my novel inspired/supplemented by my photography from October, I'll be putting a lot of pictures up to help show you where the ideas and imagery came from. In exploring how to do this on World of Wordcraft, I discovered a place to put music as well. Since a couple of my music interests may be a bit obscure, I thought I'd share a couple samplings. Two are from DJ Earworm, and two are from OC Remixes. I have a thing for blended genres and musical styles. I'… Continue

Finally finished something!

Sorry to badger you guys with this and feel free to ignore, but I had to write this somewhere that way it is real. And I need to share it because I am going to burst. I finished a story. I know it may not be a big deal, but this is the first thing a very long time that I have written and finished a story because I wanted toread the story, because it won't leave me alone and because it demanded I finish it. I don’t know if it is the excitement over Nano but I finally, finally have a story I st… Continue
