An actual update, huzzah
Nov. 17th, 2014 05:19 pmEven though I don't have much to say at all....
> I am trying to get the brain to do various things. Like write things. Read things. Comment on things. I still haven't slept yet, so we'll see how much actually gets done this weekend.
> I did get my polybigbang in on time though! Now to see if I get an artist. And to try and finish it. Whether or not I get one, because goddammit, I want to write this story.
> December meme still has most of the days open. I may try to post every day even if I don't fill every day, so please come give me things to talk about or I'm gonna resort to disjointed fic or something....
> I am working 10-7 on the night of Wed-morning of Thursday, and then 6-4 on night of Thursday-morning of Black Friday, assuming they don't ask me to stay later. I'm so excited. I'm filled with glee. Can you sense the joy in my tone. I'm going to punch someone by the time I get home. (but 12 hours of holiday pay, plus at least an hour's overtime for the week, so... there's that.)
> I've marathon read the entire Percy Jackson series plus the first book and a half of Heroes of Olympus this week at work. I like PJO much better than the first HOO; without spoilers cause I'm too tired to review it indepth enough to warrant them, I think first-person works better for Riordan than third, so while I understand the reason he went for third, it made the book weaker. However, the influx of new wordbuilding and interesting things to learn in the second has balanced that out and made it a lot stronger in some ways, especially now that I'm past some of the clunkier exposition, so we'll see if it keeps picking up.
