Hi, guys. :)

Writing news:

My chapter lengths are crazy, so I'm going for 1K - 2K per scene.

I'm going on holiday for two weeks at the start of August, so I'm just going to do Camp Wrimo in July.

Other news:

My headphones are broken (they keep cutting out), but the ones Mum leant me are broken as well. :(

Trying to write something, or do some research...

But I can't :(

It's only 8:30. I'll do something... Now.

Hey Missus, sorry your heads about to explode. Writing always helps me when i get to that point.

I just went through the folder in my computer "Other book idea" and spruced up all the few page summaries. I have a Plot and Character description of the Two ideas in there right now. I found look alike pictures of what i think the characters should look like and now i really want to write the one... Oh well

Speaking of story ideas, I hate it when you have a story idea and you are about to start the story then another story idea comes along. And you get conflicted. :< I am so indecisive.

I know how you feel, Horserider. I already have ten assignments from two classes due tomorrow online and I have yet to do them. I am such a procrastinator.

A world of pure imagination...
I've been a good student so far this semester. No procrastination, and gone to all my classes (even on Thursday when I was feeling like absolute crap).

Yes, it has. :(

The writing has started kicking my butt again. But until I figure out the cause, I won't be able to figure out the solution.

I think my desire to write has disintegrated since I started my semester. :<

Missus: :(

Weirdly, a part of me has urges to write a collection of YA short stories and self publish them. This is weird because I hate writing short stories for uni.

I don't think I've written a short story for one of my courses yet, but I fear like if I did then I would most likely not be able to stop. That is probably one of my habits, I tend to try to keep a story going even it should end. Trying to change that though.

I do think that's a great idea though, Lisa! Where are you going to self-publish? Lulu?

We always have to write short stories for my creative writing classes. >< Well, mostly.

I'm not sure. I've looked at Createspace, Smashwords and Amazon. What I really want is for them (well, it - it'll be a collection) avaible in book format and e-book format.

I don't know if I'm going to do this, though. I guess it depends how Sticks and Stones goes, and the other projects I want to do this year.
