My Semi-New Serial Story

I launched the first installment of my online serial story yesterday and tweaked it today because no matter how many times you proof-read these damn things, you will still find a f*king spelling error or mistake later on.

You can find it here.

Not My First Rodeo

Just to be clear, this is not the first time I have done this and I have quite a lot of this saga and other bits and pieces of partially-written novels in draft form. Those who have known me for a long time may have seen some of the tale already.

However, they've been gathering dust on an old ex-drive and I thought I should haul them out, refurbish, recycle and reuse; and have some fun. Mostly because I like the main storyline but also, if I am to call myself a writer, I should bloody well write something.

Since I have had several stories and several attempts at telling them going back over the years, I have decided to roll them all into the creative mixing bowl and have at it.

Kind of like my actual cooking...

The result might be a bit eclectic but I estimate that I have enough material to keep myself occupied - and hopefully you all (gr8 gram skils btw) as well. We can entertain ourselves through the apocalypse.

My Drawing Skills

Are not great either.

But since I spent hard-earned money on a decent artists' tablet awhile ago, I'm going to put that to use too. As soon as I figure out how to plug the damn thing in properly... there's a port here somewhere...

And it's fun. I've always wanted to illustrate a comic but have always bottled out after the first page or two because I really suck at drawing. Instead we will all have to put up with my cartoonish renderings of whatever is happening in the storyline.

 Apologies in advance to real artists.

For Fun And Personal Entertainment

Yep. Primarily I'm doing this for my own amusement and because I need a break from World of Warcraft, but why not come along for the ride and maybe have a laugh or two.

There will be character breakdowns periodically as I attempt to explain why my romance novel chick is appearing in my epic fantasy saga just to make eyes at the hero... even though he's a goblin. And stuff like that.

We can make this work, people!

Stay safe my friends - cheers!

Renewing My Writing Career

When I woke up this morning I had no idea that I was going to go whole hog and actually buy a web domain with Google. I have been upset with Wordpress for some time simply because they do NOT provide the proper tools to keep out other 'tools' that constantly spam, hack, and otherwise ruin my blogging experience over there. Every morning I clear my spam folder and diligently enter IP addresses, trigger words and phrases, mostly from Russian spammers, translating the Cyrillic so I know which to copy and paste, etc., would-be sellers of viagra and cialis, and let me tell you, it's exhausting, time consuming, and seemingly endless. And I refuse to pay further money for a service like Akismet or the like. Back To Blogger Blogger, even the free version, has always been good to me. It has plenty of scope in regard to visual site setup, is user friendly, because, quite frankly I have no time to keep up with coding anymore as that, too, is exhausting. Interesting, but ex

I'm Playing Sims 2 Again

Image
 When The Sims first came out over twenty years ago, I fell head over heels in love with the game. I've been playing off and on, through all the expansions and sequels, since then. My favourite version has always been The Sims 2 and recently I've stumbled on some YouTube Creators who play the game so differently than how I do. They are very knowledgeable and I have learned more about The Sims in the past two weeks than I have since its inception. For instance, I eventually accepted as a given the fact that the game would corrupt itself somehow eventually, usually sooner rather than later, and I would have to start anew. I learned to explore the innards of my EA Games files, and by trial and error, what goes where and does this. When Origin came out with The Ultimate Collection of the Sims 2 , I was over the moon; no more hours of uploading my endless collection of discs, base game and all its many expansions. I could now fiddle to my heart's content and when (not 'if

Preptober

The excitement is building. At least with me. When I tell others I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year, which admittedly aren't many people, they say, "Oh, that's nice," or something equally magnanimous. Which I suppose is better than, "Yeah, right." Nano prep actually started mid-September and I was thrilled to actually be on time, rather than look up from some video game mid-November and go, "Oh... ".  Anyone who knows me knows I like to write and have always aspired to be a writer. Well, this year I am determined to kick off my writing career with 50,000 words. A quiz told me I'm a Plantser with leanings toward the total anarchy of Pantsing. I didn't actually know this and thought all writers wrote like Stephen King until I saw a few YouTube videos about planning and plotting out a novel - which totally scared the beejeebers out of me, by the way - and realized there must be a niche for me. I decided to follow one of the recommended Plottin
