Holy hell, an update!?
15 years ago
Quick, look away! Don't read this if you want to get out with your sanity! Oh, you're already insane? Er, well, I suppose you can read, then . . .
Yeah, I know, posted two journals before this that said I'd be starting things. I really did mean it! Just, well, real life attacked. Things are starting to slow down enough that I can get back to some projects I've been working on, brainstorm ideas, and so on. Again, I plan on putting some submissions up here and seeing if they get any attention. If I get responses, criticism, and such then great. If not, that's fine too. Right now I'm pretty much just rambling so . . . lemme type some stuff that may or may not be more important:
* Website - Using freewebs.com to make my own website. There I'll put up my roleplay characters, some blogs, pictures I like, etc. Nothing too grand, just a spot for me to do whatever and practice with my HTML and other coding skills.
* Roleplays - I have only one going. I NEED more roleplaying. Been suffering from intense writer's block for a few months now and can't seem to get out. Some help there would be much appreciated.
* Stories - So far I've got the backstory for my signature character, Addis Hellfire, in the works. Sorta. I erased the three paragraphs I had to start over. I might post an incomplete rough draft and see what people think from where I'm at. Also thinking of doing random, most likely short stories to get back into the swing of being an author.
* Real Life - Trying to get into college and land a decent job that won't cause a tear too great in the welfare program that's keeping my family and I up and running. Not going well so far, but hey, I am trying.
* Video Games - Started Final Fantasy VI, like, a day or two ago. Problem is that I've had the game on, TV off, and been . . . erm . . . AFP? (Away from Playstation) for most of the time. Think i've got an hour of gameplay in, despite it saying I had 21. Anybody else do that? Haha. Couldn't help but chuckle at the "There's sand on my boots!" scene. Just beat Sabin's first encounter, if that tells anybody where I am in the game. Also hopelessly addicted to Dissidia Final Fantasy and M.U.G.E.N.
* Books - Just finished reading 1984 recently, and have picked up a copy of Fritz Leiber's book Swords against Wizardry. Fucking love this guy's work, especially as his setting happens to also be my favorite D&D setting of all time - Lankhmar: The City of Adventure . . . or better known as, the City of Thieves.
Think that's about all I have to say so far. I think. Not sure if all the above (books, video games, etc) should be listed under projects though . . . Eh, if not I'll change my format for the next journal.
Hey, anybody mind me hitting them with a meme? Zhugeliang (not sure how to do that fancy trick where you attach a person's name and avatar) sent me one that I haven't done yet for the sole purpose of not knowing who to send. Most, if not all, of my Watched By list are people I don't talk to anymore. Would love to fix that! Just, well, yeah, for some reason things went silent >_>
Anyways . . . I'll hit the magic Go button and see what happens.
You guys must be really bored to have read all this. Send me some feedback, please!
