Day Three


My cat and I could not handle the end of Daylight Savings this morning. (not a surprise).
He woke up at 4am hungry for breakfast, I woke up either at 7 or 8 and I'm still not sure which one it was.

In other news, we didn't get snow last night!
Sure, it's November, this is Maine, and if it's anything like Minnesota in the early winter, it's going to snow in November. I should probably find my winter clothes...? Yeah, that's a good plan.

Oh yes, NaNoWriMo!

I'm slugging along, not doing too badly considering that I've been busy the first two days of the month. I really can't wait until the plot gets going but I'm close to that point! So close!

so close.


The grating protagonist is paragraphs away from meeting her Wise Mentor, who is named Phoebe. They don't like each other. Who am I kidding, Sin doesn't like anyone. Phoebe is still stuck in that post-college "wtf am I doing with my life" phase, and she meets Sin in a YMCA locker room after Sin loses control of her powers and tries to drown her nemesis. High school is great. Actually, I'm already tired of writing about high school drama. It'll be nice once I'm done with that part of the story!
Let's see.... Phoebe... I'm excited to write her. She's going to act all bad-ass, but not actually think she's that bad-ass, but she is that cool. She's book smart but not that good of a teacher, which Sin will constantly remind her of. Phoebe likes to think and act like she knows what's going on, but most of the time she's just as clueless as Sin. Mostly, I'm just super excited to have Sin call her "Pheebs" all the time.

Uhhh I've introduced Hot Guy #1, Alden. So smoking hot. Love interest, yes. Sin isn't going to fall pathetically in love with him. Yet.

Mostly I've just thrown in a bunch of Sin's high school friends, who probably aren't all that important anyway, other than Mel the Nemesis. Poor Mel.

Oh yes, and the other important character is Gracie, who is haunting Sin's home. She and Sin are bffs and yaaay friendship etc whatever.

Ummmmm yup. Writing.



like this corgi, I am just gliding alonggg



That's all I've got. Whooo Sunday!

IT'S ALIIIIIIIVE

I mean, what's two years in the life of an indifferent blogger? Just a blink of the eye. So, kudos to me, it's not NaNoWriMo and I'm updating my blog!!!!! Anyway I thought I'd update the ol' Spete Blog with my newest publication announcement! Two (2) short stories! Both are older (3+ years old) works that I decided on a whim to publish ( read as: I was working on my novel and had fallen into a pit of despair because it's so long and I'm never going to finish the thing and I dismally remembered that I haven't published anything since Andrian Adventures like 10 years ago and what is even the point of keeping all my old stories to myself on my laptop if I'm just going to stare sadly at them day and isn't it much better to publish them and then stare sadly at the 0 Sales report instead ) .  They're fractured fairy tales of the silliest sort. Also, both take place in the kingdom of Atlis. I have done so much world building f...

Hello...

Um, hi. Long time no see! I was dicking around on the NaNoWriMo website today and realized that I have a link to my blog on it, and I was all, "oh yeah that's right, I have a blog!" *insert derp noises* Ok. My life. November: It DID major snowstorm on the 2nd of November, which was a slap in the face after the beautiful fall we'd been having I did write a science fiction story for NaNoWriMo and it was based off the fairytale that I was going to base it off of, and it turned into a hot hot hot HOT mess because oh yes that's right, I'm terrible at NaNoWriMo. But the main character was named Bix, and there was a computer who was in the body of a human, and an evil mastermind who just kidnapped people for no reason, and at the end a very possible alien invasion! idk. It's on my list of stories to go back and revise, because I do think it has potential, but I sort of lost my control over the story about halfway through the month Thanksgiving was fun...

This is Not a Drill

FRIENDS I DID IT. I MADE A BOOK. Hold onto your pants folks, for coming in mid-April is As the King , a Young Adult Fantasy novel full of sword-fights, wicked uncles, and mistaken identities!   ( it has none of those things, don't listen to me) ~~~ (artwork by the amazing Marion !) This is Elisan, our intrepid heroine. She is unfashionably freckled but please don't hold it against her.  She was shipped off by her family to live with a foreign aunt and uncle at a young age with no explanation why. While traumatizing at the time, she's now decided was for the best, as she is quite content with her life. Elisan enjoys climbing trees, drinking tea, boxing, and dancing. She is not an accomplished artist, thinks she's a better actor than she really is, and  will  fight you if you insult one of her friends. She can currently be found boarding a train back to Verica, having just received a mysterious letter which claims she's th...
