Finished uploading The Fall of Gnomeregan, my submission to the Blizzard 2010 writing contest. I'll be more prepared for next years. In the meantime:
- Saora asked me to write another story for her character, this one about her death and the Icecrown outcome. I'm about halfway through and stuck again so maybe reposting here will get the juices going.
- I have a "try out" at a copywriter position for an agency in Florida this Monday. If they like what I write, I could get a temp part-time job writing! MY FIRST PAYING WRITING GIG! Nothing exciting or even interesting, but hey it's a paycheck for what I love. Pretty damn cool.
- I made a resolution to write more this year. So far...not going so well. Haven't written a single word. Hoping that changes soon.
- I blame . Enhanced has been bouncing around in my head as a movie for weeks. I can see it, nearly every minute of it, playing in my head and it's driving me nuts. I said I'd work on Tehvi this year...but I think this has to be my next personal project. If I see one more dude igniting or one more girl sensing a bloodthirsty savage racing at her, I may dig my brain out with a spoon.
That's it for now. Couple fun submissions that have nothing to do with anything then I'll start posting Saora: Icecrown. Christ that thing needs a better name.

Apologies and Starting Again
Some things happen in life that consume everything else. Sometimes it isn't even your life. You can do everything right, have everything in its proper place. Things can still happen. Because, no matter how hard you try, there are over seven billion other lives on this planet and every single one affects your existence. For the most part, you're ignorant to their influence, and get to go about your business with some amount of control. Then, there are the times those lives smack you right in the face. Everything crumbles. You fall. You bleed. And you never gave a reason for it to happen.
Bad things happen to good people, and bad people get wh
Back to Basics
After years of writing things because someone told me to, I'm writing something I want to. I started another story for my friend gina-su, aka Saora, a long, long time ago and never finished. Figured I'd get back into it, revisit my Warcraft characters and that whole universe I was so obsessed with for so long.
I've missed my girls.
Though the story is about Saora, it's also a farewell/love letter to my old guild, Zodiac. I made a lot of friends there, learned a lot about myself, gained a surprising amount of confidence. I'll always remember them fondly and miss them terribly. This story is my way of thanking them, without getting all mushy
Back in the Saddle
Well, not REALLY. Just having a fun trip down Nostalgia Lane.
Since my last rant filled posting, I've graduated college (finally) and found a steady office job, one of those 9 to 5 things. With this stability, I'm able to do things I want to do. Saving money is the hard part, what with all the medical issues happening in my family lately. But once I do, we're going to the movies, baby. I have a completed short script I'd love to film. Well, really, I have two, but I'd rather focus on just the one first. I even have the main location scouted already. Just need to save.
Otherwise, thinking of starting my own comic webseries. Again, money is n
Traveling Bites...
Ever tried to keep up with college assignments, personal goals and a virtual social life without the Internet? It's horrifying. Not only do you have to attempt to find some place with free Wi-Fi that you can mooch off of (if you're not lucky enough to have some brain-dead owner that didn't password protect their wireless signal), it's next to impossible to get what you need when you think about it. Before, at home, I could remember something or think of something I wanted and two seconds later it's be up on my screen. Now I have to jump in my car (really my mother's car, mine was left at home) and drive almost 20 minutes to check my e-mail. I
