Summer. Blargh.

Holy shit on toast am I bored.

Been watching LOST again though, despite knowing things. I don't even care. I LOVE SAWYER GUYS.

And on the off-chance that you are also bored, here are a few other shows I recommend to fill the void left behind by OUaT and Grimm:

1. Lost Girl. I know I gripe and complain about supernatural detective shows, but this is a Fae private investigator done right. Warning: sexual content.

2. Casshern Sins. Just premiered on Toonami (TOM MY LOVE) this past Saturday and so far I must say I am intrigued.

3. Deadman Wonderland. Not as intriguing as #2, and I feel like I've either seen it or read it (and I think I must've read it) before. The voice actor for the main character annoys the crap out of me, but it might be worth seeing where it goes.

Aaand that's it for now. Anyone else want to add to this list?

More Ideas

Right, so, I was browsing Tor and came across this:


And it reminded me--I always wanted to know/do more with the rest of the HP world. And I thought--hey. Pottermore is open. People can get sorted. We can write some HP shit. And I can continue to keep a tight grip on my childhood, following some HP-inspired characters through Hogwarts and, more importantly, what comes after Hogwarts.

Just another idea on ways to stay creatively invested this summer.

Jumping the Gun

So I already mentioned this to Morgan, and I really want to like...do another themed Halloween.

And I want that theme to be Sherlock.

I want to make my fem Mycroft outfit guys.

 Yes?

You're a Vampire, __________

So I keep coming back to that wimpy-ass vampire idea. I like Mouse's input about adding in other, stranger, never-really-seen-before creatures (the were-elephant is particularly promising in terms of awkward situations--I mean, THINK ABOUT IT). At the same time, whenever I think of this skinny, perpetually perplexed vampire dude, I always see him with a fairy as a roommate. A fairy that controls the weather and gets all the chicks despite his lovely electric green hair and tendency to set things on fire. On purpose.

But whether I go the fairy route is still up for debate as far as I'm concerned. Hell, this whole story is up for debate. But let's say I really do it, just for shits and giggles. What appropriately normal/dorky name would suit an awkward, skinny ass vampire dude?

That is all.

NaNo in the Summer

So I'm just going to spam all of our blogs with this--Camp NaNo is now open, and for those of you who don't know, it is essentially NaNoWriMo, but in the summer. This is great since November is always a tricky month for a lot of us who still have to deal with finals, and the months of June and August are blessedly finals-free! The rules are the same as standard NaNo: write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. I personally intend to participate in both June and August, and I really hope some of you will join me. It's a great experience, and one you should definitely have if you've ever entertained even slightly the thought of being a writer.

Here's the link:  http://campnanowrimo.org/sign_in

You really have no excuse. So do it.

Thoughts n' Shit

Sometimes I just want to write a vampire story where the vampire doesn't have superhuman strength. He's just some poor, photosensitive schmuck who has to come up with increasingly sketchy ways to obtain blood and maintain enough semblance of humanity that people don't hunt his skinny ass down and set him on fire.

Just Do It.

You Must Find Your Own Way


Rule One: You do not talk about All This Shit
Rule Two: You DO NOT talk about All This Shit
Rule Three: USE GIFs. Unless you are questing for the Wagonmaster
Rule Four: Yes, Wagonmaster must be capitalized
Rule Five: All ponchos and sombreros must complement
Rule Six: Post All The Shit--even the writing shit
Rule Seven:  No take backs, no edits. This is YOUR SHIT.
Rule Eight: Don't think about it; just do it.

What's with this Shit?

It started with a quest--for the WAGONMASTER.

Why do we need the Wagonmaster? For wagons. Wagons for...transportation purposes...


Without the wagon, we cannot travel. If we cannot travel, we cannot find the other half of the mariachi band.

But there's a snag in the quest--a traitor in our midst! He has fallen in love with some broa--woman! And her SOMBRERO DOESN'T EVEN MATCH HIS PONCHO!

But I will win him back. I will find the other members. I will make him see--no one will ever complement him like I do!
