Trust me... there are untold depths and dimensions to my insanity. This just scratches the surface.
Ugh! Now I'm all itchy and twitchy...
Ugh! Now I'm all itchy and twitchy...
Ugh! Now I'm all itchy and twitchy...
There is a lot of other things he DOESN'T do here---don't look a gift horse in the mouthonly bcs the monkey doesn't post goals here
I have a plan...the sheep is in charge until i get back.
Are you frakking insane?
Oops, did I say that out loud?
We're doomed! (I sure as hell am)
The Sheep?!
houndies have natural instincts and responses---and i don't have to lift a fingerI can deal with this.
*goes off the fetch the shearers*
*snicker*And the silly string... musn't forget the silly string...
*wanders off, sillly string slung in holsters, humming Mary had a little lamb...*
*charges up the electric shearers*
Or sharpen a shearer.heeheehee...
the sheep has an achilles heel and takes the bait like charlie brown goes for the football.
mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

My houndies never disappoint*prepares casserole dish and potatoes for Shepherd's Pie*
What?
Oh, drat--DL isn't back yet!
*hides everything in the pantry*yummy
Morning, sheepy! How about some nice, fresh spring grass? *whistles innocently*
Just because you are a paranoid nutter doesn't make you wrong.Really?
A nuttier and more paranoid sheep?
Is that even possible?
The sheep speaks the truth.Trust me... there are untold depths and dimensions to my insanity. This just scratches the surface.
Congrats Laurie that is awesome on the acceptance don't forget to post it in brags.My goal was for 500 to one of my big wips.
Didn't quite reach it, added 410 to Telepathy and did some research for the tattoo my evil MC is having applied to the good MC's back as part of her "You can't stop me" campaign.
Did a wee smidge of Delicious editing.
Heard back from Emerald Tales this weekend - A Visit with the Tantes will be included in the June 15 edition.
Almost forgot... wrote short little mini-blurbs for Beware the Butterflies and One of Those Addicting Games and posted on my blog and added a page for my "Stories Published" with links.
This week...
Aiming for 500 again to either Spirit or Telepathy
Forgive me, DL, for I have sinned. It has been several weeks since my last update...
Accomplished:
5 short stories out on sub
1 novella out on sub
1 story awaiting a re-write. It's posted here
1 novel being completely neglected
Goals:
Polish and sub short story
2K on novel
In a rush with RL deadlines, so quickly:
Goal was 2k on the WIP. Did 1500.
Goal remains the same: 2K
Ben,I did get much more of that draft done for An Abused Mind or read a third short for that matter.
I did send out Evicted though and my other short story, My Boss Sucks, and wrote a flash fiction piece which was posted on my blog. I wrote 1320 words in total as I did some more work on my novella as well.
I'm back to setting weekly word count goals too.
This week I hope to write 2,000 words, compile my early short stories and poetry together for copyediting and maybe do more toward An Abused Mind.
I just finished emailing Mr. Tyree Campbell at Sam's Dot Publishing the synopsis and first 50 pages of my science fiction novel HATCHINGS plus the short horror vignette NIGHT ON A BOAT per his request.
While I'm not free of these (yet), there is a certain sense of freedom that comes with shifting these items, particularly HATCHINGS off of the front burner so I can get to work on every other project I've got going.
With a certain trepidation, and an anxious sense of oncoming doom, and the full knowledge that extensive edits are certain to be coming if not outright rejection, I lift one hogshead from my shoulders and prepare to put on another.
Did 1000 words last week on a story, over in Horror SYW under the heading "Need Input on This..." (or something close to that--too lazy to look it up right this second). So my goal for this wee is to rewrite the beginning and finish the first draft at least.
... course, ought to post my own goals.
Got about 3k in this past week. Not a lot, but an improvement over last week, so it's starting to flow again after a slow week before.
Next week?
More words.
Good luck to everyone with subs out there and congrats Laurie on another sale!
I met my goal from last week. Sent off a short last night.
This week...hmm. Really low. 200 words to anything. I have some work projects that are stifling me creatively and taking up a lot of time. Should hopefully have them closed out in the next two weeks and then I'll be back with better output.
Y'all are fun!
First,I am sending good energy out to my fellow horror writers and wishing you all well.
Second,Shaun The Sheep is hell. My son LOVES him and I watch with him.*cries*
Progress:
1.Chopped a 120,000 vampire novel down to 95k.
2. Added 2500k to the other books in the series.
3. Just added some more nasty behavior for Riordan.
On a natural high,as my vamps murder,stalk,feud with each other and this is effing good fun!
Nothing and I mean NOTHING,beats horror.
Congrats Laurie that is awesome on the acceptance don't forget to post it in brags.
I found a pic from a card game I thought was fun
Hugs and pushups,
Tigress Tyrant
Boston I understand you not wanting to set goals but...
or there is a bird cage with your name on it.
I'd think really, really hard on whether that's something you want to encourage me with.
Might end up looking like this.
Which, mind you, I can live with.
It's mid-afternoon here (EDT time, sure, but still...), and I'm *first* in this week?
ooh, don't want to be in your shoes when DL checks in.
anyway, last week a tigery someone said I had to do at least 500 words. I got in close to 4k this past week, along with some retooling and plotting and planning. Trying to turn the current WIP from a collection of ideas into a coherent story.
This week: More words. I'd like to get things churning again, but I need a better idea of the structure of this current WIP for that. So there's that, too.
*skids in, careens around corner, smooths hair, pretends she was five minutes early*
Greetings, Tigery Mistressness.
Goal: 2K
Result: 1K
I await my imminent doom.
If I survive, the same goal for next week: 2K (I figure at some point, by the law of averages, I'll hit it.)
ETA: considers stealing some of he sheep's words when he's not looking
