Away

Away from my home location and stuck at a location with Internet that dislikes https protocol; I have a post that I want to make, but am unable to do so right now. It should be up Sunday.

Question

So, as I'm writing "Six" (up to 18k words right now), I'm encountering a few things that I've never had to deal with before, and that leads me to a question that I must ask my readers:

Up until this point, I have mainly been doing progress updates on this journal. I am aware of a few popular writers' journals that also give occasional writing advise and whatnot--would anyone reading this thing be interested if I did some of that? I've posted a few things over on Apocrypha (and am in the process of posting a question over there as I write this), but I've often held out because I didn't think it was worth calling too much attention to myself.

Any opinions?

"Six" notes

Since I'm going to so many clinics in the upcoming days, I might be holding off on updating "Six" until I'm done.

(Also, the RB clinic left me inspired to write a crapload; hopefully the all-staters will inspire me even more.)

Clinic

Posting from my iPod at a hotel--I've arrived at this weekend's clinic site. Excited because clinics are always fun; depressed because I have no computer to write with. ;(

News

For the next three weeks, I'll be going off during the weekends to band clinics, so I won't have much time to write. Considering that most of the school week will probably be spent with make-up work, I'm left with precious little time.

Right now, I'm working on Day Three of "Six." I've been struggling to write this section, mainly because I have so many conflicts that it's difficult to manage them all.

I haven't done much work on The Ambassador recently (because I'm not sure where to go with it), but I plan to go through and thoroughly analyze it one day to determine the direction in which I need to take it.

Anyway, I'm off to try some writing.

Notes

If you haven't seen them already, the next two chapters for "Six" are up on FFN. I'll be waiting a bit before posting the next chapter, though, for plot reasons and for I-need-to-write-some-more-of-it reasons. (I'm four chapters ahead, but I'd like to finish most of it first.)

Also, bad news: I have to write a short medieval romance for school. Though I don't really mind doing it, it'll be taking away from some time that I'd originally intended to use for writing parts of "Six."

Vamlumtimes day!

Happy Vamlumtimes Day!

So, uh, I'd originally planned to have a oneshot to release today, but with school and "Six" and trying to write "Conflict" and a few other projects, I never got around to it. (Though I'll admit, the main reason is 'cause I didn't have any ideas.)

So, uh, sorry 'bout that. Instead, I present a lynx to much lulz.
