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)

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...

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...
