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, saw my family!
  • Got a new laptop! Woooo
December
  •  Surprisingly mild! After that early November snowstorm December was like, "whatevs I'm just going to chill"
  • I went back to Minnesota after Christmas and saw my family and friends, which was super awesome! It made me miss home :(
  • I think that's about all that happened, honestly
January
  • WHAT THE EFF, JANUARY YOU SUCKED WHY DID YOU SNOW SO MUCH
  • (And on my birthday I turned 26) 
 February
  • SO. MUCH. SNOW.
  • I set up this sweeeet deal with my landlady where I get reduced rent at this adorable sea-side cottage until June 1st, so the day after my burfday I moved (in town)
  • My sister had a baby shower! Surprisingly, it's the first baby shower I've been too. I guess unlike everyone else's friends, my friends aren't having babies? So that's cool
  • The best thing about February was when it ended
And now it's mid-March! Hello!
Also, it is currently snowing
So no, winter is not over.

Ummmm yup. My sister's baby is due any day (LITERALLY ANY DAY) and I plan to hike it down to Boston to be there for the birth/watch their dogs, which will be a nice break from Maine. Also, yay a nephew!

I've spent today fracturing fairytales and trying to decide if my character named Quinn should be a boy or a girl. Is it strange if I write them as a boy in one story, but as a girl in a different story? Nah. Quinn is a magician-in-training and gets into all sorts of shenanigans? Or something.
I've also spent today listening to an endless combination of Kelly Clarkson, Cloud Cult, and Taylor Swift. Sorry, upstairs neighbor! lololol rofl etc

Yup, that's about all I have. Sorry for being away for so long, blog-reader(s).
....why did I just assume that I only have one blog reader right then? Who knows!


I leave you with this:

Cheers, and Happy St Patrick's Day! (please drink responsibly)

Villains

This morning I was thinking about antagonists in my stories, and realized that I'm actually horrible at creating really solid evil characters. I have plenty who are snotty, or rude, or sort of grumpy, but not any villainous  villains. I think I'll work on creating someone spectacularly wicked for the second part of Andrian Adventures. I'd like to stay away  from the usual fantasy/fairy-tale stereotypes, and since I've already made a wicked wizard for the first part of AA, I guess that's out. Maybe it'll be a recurring antagonist-- should they go from being good to bad? Time to get to work :) In other news, here's a picture of some alien beer. We actually didn't find this in Roswell, but in Las Cruces... in hindsight, I wish I'd tried some. I was flipping through pictures on my phone and was filled with regret :)

Superman

This episode has been brought to you by a bottle of Riesling So, movie #8 was Sydney White No need to worry, I brought it Genres: Some Geekery, Amanda Bynes, Fairytale Highlights: Amanda Bynes not crazy all the sneaky geekery references awkwardly based off Snow White Lowlights: They could've made her SUCH a geek her hair. the whole movie. There is something off about it. I mean, this movie is ok. Also, why is Amanda Bynes a genre? Mysterious. I sort of zoned out while watching this and read webcomics instead. Still, it's cute. anyway, onto tonight's main attraction (attractive man whaaaaat) SUPERMAN   Genres: Superhero, Action, Fangirl ...does the Fangirl genre count if I'm the only fangirl? yes. So, this is the story of Kal-El, who was sent to earth as a wee babe because his native home of Krypton was about to BLOW THE HECK UP. He is adopted by a possible Minnesotan (Jonathan Kent, I'm l...
