Oops, It's Christmas

-
So, I, uh...got distracted. And haven't updated in a while, you'll notice. But good news, if you were following what I was talking about back in October!


I did manage to pull off NaNo!

Anyway, with that over for now, I think I'm going to be focusing mainly on...well, whatever the hell I want to talk about. I'd love input on what people want me to babble about, though. I think next time I post, I'm going to talk about how goddamn awesome my stepdad is.

But for now, Christmas!


Katz: Yay Christmas!

Me: Stop humping the tree, Katz.
Katz: I'm not humping this time!

Me: Why are you climbing the tree?

Me: Katz, what are you doing!

Katz: Yay! 
Me: Great. Now I can't reach you.
Katz: Ohgod. I hate heights. I feel sick. SAVE ME!
Me: BROTHER!

Katz: BUTBUTBUT TREEEEE! STAAARRRR!!
Me: YOU SAID YOU HATED HEIGHTS!
Katz: But tree! CHRISTMAS!

Me: Thanks bro. Katz, behave.
Katz: ...

Brother: Present time!
Katz: YAY! PRESENT!
Me: Oh god, see what you've done?

Katz: It's huge! Is it a Warthog?
Me: No.


Katz: Thanks!
Brother: No prob.

Katz: MINIONS! Just what I've always wanted! Lookit how cute he is!

Minions: Iie! Iie!
Katz: Uh...are minions supposed to do this?
Me: Sometimes.

Katz: Ummm...get...back in the box?
Minions: Iie Iie!


Well, at least this will be entertaining.

Merry Christmas, Yule, etc. everyone.

Magic, and the Orders of the Exodus Covenant

Magic! Ah, magic. Always a pain in the ass. Magic is broken up into a few subcategaories. Racial Magic: Racial magic is magic that is innate to all members of a species. Very few races have magic common to every member of a species – a good example would be harpies; every member of their species has racial magic enabling them to actually fly. Dwarves, too – they have sort of an earth sense. Personal Magic: Personal magic is magic that is innate to a certain person; they are born with the innate ability. This one is a bit odd – for example, 90% of all non-Covah humans are born with magic that makes them highly adaptable; that 10% means it’s not racial. Most people have two, maybe three gifts like this, and half the time, they don’t precisely seem like “magic”. For example, the naga in my NaNo – her special talent, in addition to the human adaptability, is a gift for languages – it takes her very little time to be able to be fully fluent in a new language. The dwarf, ...

Inspiration and Riding Things, Pt 1

Inspiration to write is hella weird. It can jump out of nowhere and bite you in the ass, it can wake you up from a dead sleep going, "WTF? Where is my notebook?" Or, inspiration can abandon you completely. That really, really sucks. I've been lucky the last few years that, by the time NaNo rolled around, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do. Execution is pretty terrible, but at the very least I like what I have and do enjoy the process. I go through a half-dozen plots every time, though. Some of them I still like, some of them are shelved permanently. A ton of them come from the Adopt-A-Plot thread on the NaNo forums, others come from watching movies, and some just pop up. What I'm trying to say, I guess, is know that it's always around. Don't shut inspiration out, or, more importantly, NEVER IGNORE IT. Doesn't matter how dumb you may think it sounds, it's always worth it to keep that idea. Even the silliest idea can be expanded into...

Paradise Fiber Club Box - August: A Pop Art Fiber Adventure

No super hype leadup this month, sorry, I've been super sick all through July and I'm just starting to get my enthusiasm back. However it does make the box anticipation all that more tolerable, when it's hardly there. Well, at least until the delivery notification showed up - then I got a little hype. :D That means, however, that I get to go into this month totally blind! No hints, no nuthin! It's nice. This month guest starring my mom's house, her...appropriately themed carpet, and Nacho. First view of the open box! In high school, my design class did an entire stint on the pop art style. That was the first thing that came to mind when I opened this puppy up. Nostalgia??? Info about this month's fibers. Might be a touch hard to read. The "menu" for the month, with my fat finger blocking the exclusive codes. Nacho broke in here, as he needed attention. Gaze upon his sweet orange face, and my mo...
