45 minutes until Humans Vs. Zombies. Prepare for the infestation! 3 hours and 45 minutes until Nanowrimo begins here this part of the good old US of A. Bring on the mass noveling! That is all.
More Shakespeare
My binge is complete. I have everything finished, I’m caught up in the class, and my grades are pretty damn good. Hallelujah! In other news, I’ve had an 8-10 page essay assigned for Victorian Literature that is due–you guessed it–right in the middle of Nanowrimo. That might very well kill me. On the plus side, it’s
Writing and Shakespeare
I’ve been doing a ton of writing lately, to the point where it’s become hard for me to focus on homework and, you know, practical things.

News on the Nano front!
The new Nanowrimo website is up and running! I suppose I don’t need to elaborate upon how excited this makes me. I may decide to update my information tonight, just to avoid putting off doing homework. (Who am I kidding, I’d be updating because it’s fun!) I have an outline for this year’s story, minor

This is just to say . . .
. . . that I finished the 100 Drabbles of Summer Challenge with seven days to go! Rock and roll, baby! Funny how I feel as though I’ve just gotten my life back. Just in time to start on another writing project. Massive sigh. My work here is never done. Still, I AM TRIUMPHANT.

As quoted from Nanowrimo: My Big, Fun, Scary List
Wow, this may be the first actual blog-like entry I’ve posted in months. I mean, I’ve been a regular here with the 100 Drabbles of Summer Challenge, and various memes, as well as at community, where I’m posting. But still, I haven’t much kept up my blog because, really, when you’re trying to do as
