I continue to be the worst at keeping up with everything

[last01standing]

I went to Boston over halloween to visit bff. It was lovely despite the fact that it slushed on us pretty much the entire time. We did a ghost tour on actual Halloween as well as the customary horror movie marathon. (The line-up: Daybreakers, You're Next, Event Horizon, and Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil. Was a quality day for film.)

Appear to have been sucked into comics. Have been binge reading Deadpool. I regret nothing but I blame this for the gratuitous violence of my most recent nano scene.

Oh yeah, nano. This year is the valiant attempt to finally finish the Fucking Space Opera Stowing Away. It's going well for the moment though I'm pretty sure I will have to rewrite every single sentence at one point. Here is my word count thingie. I know it's completely obnoxious to post it when you're actually on par, but I'm doing it anyway:

 

25564 / 50000 words. 51% done!

ALSO I'm having one of those moments where it occurs to me that this worth noting. I entered ENEMIES LIKE THESE in a contest thing. If you have a second and an Amazon account, it would be awesome if you could vote for it: HERE.

(Also, hi f-list. How many of you guys are still out there or has everyone jumped ship for tumblr? I WOULD MUCH RATHER BE HERE THAN TUMBLR)

Your link didn't work with the /preview at the end of the url? I voted for it, and I have been liking the excerpts you have posted so far here and on tumblr. And good luck with Stowing Away!

Ack. Thanks for the heads up. I could have sworn it was okay by my end. (Thank you so much for voting! This is why LJ/DW continues to be 15000x more effective than tumblr. IT MEANS I CAN GIVE GUSHING THANK YOUS. SILVER, YOU HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE I WAS A WEE THING WRITING NOTHING BUT RIDICULOUS FANFIC AND YOU HAVE STAYED AND QUITE LITERALLY WATCHED ME GROW AS A WRITER AND THAT IS AWESOME AND HUMBLING AND 50 SORTS OF AMAZING. YOU ARE THE BEST. THE BEST.)

Your welcome, and it has been fun to watch. Ridiculous fanfic is always a good starting place, and congrats on making the transition to original works.

(And sorry, I just noticed that I forgot to reply to this....) Sorry that the Kindle Scout didn't work, but congrats again that you will be serializing it soon!

[Also, I have been rereading Timewise recently, and I still really like it]

[last01standing]

Haha oh man Timewise. I wrote Timewise when I was like eighteen and it is still one of the most entertaining writing jobs I've ever done. I had no idea people actually read that. Glad it's held up okay.

[Hey you want the complete copy of Enemies? Because your one of the folks who I will definitely send the complete copy of Enemies?]

[silverblade219]

It is a good nostalgia read for the morning commute ;)

And sure, I would like a copy of Enemies. I tried leaving a message on Tumblr (I'm silversays there), but I usually fail at the tumblr messaging system...

Thanks in advance, and look forward to reading it!
