Boo-yah!

I hit the 50k mark on Friday, btw.

This has truly been fun for me. My novel is not finished, so I'm still writing (I've decided to hit the goal every day until Nov 30th, who knows I might even hit 75k). I managed to complete something this long (LOL I'm always giving up on things).

( More thoughts behind the cut )

Ganking this link from blackfolk.

Tomorrow morning, November 21st 2009, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is airing! A brand new one! Animated, too!

And guess what: it's the old TMNT meeting the new ones!!! It's so very hard to believe this show came on 25 years ago. That makes me feel so very old, because it was airing brand new episodes when I was a whippersnapper (like most of you all on my FL are currently, LOL)

Here's the trailer.



I'm there!

As of Saturday (it's Sunday here right now, lol), this week I clocked in at 17,991 words this week, which is less than twenty words more than last week.

Total NaNoWriMo count is:



35,970! Who would have thought I could write that much? LOL I didn't.

It's funny, though. I'm not completely in love with this plot, but I'm in love with the characters that keep popping up. I still haven't done any character sheets, but it's alright. Every time I'm writing a scene with one of them, I throw in an aspect of their personality.

Which reminds me: guess which KKM character unintentionally showed up in one of my characters? Three hints:

1) It's a he.
2) He is very possessive (hyuk hyuk hyuk).
3) He is not Wolfram.

( Who's that man? )

Well, I'm finished with this week's NaNo. Total week count from Sunday to Saturday is:

17,979

Current count (this updates when I update, I think?):


I surprised myself!

My daily goals have been 1) hit the daily goal for NaNo (1667.7777777whatdafuckever) and 2) finish a chapter a day (my chapters are short).

( Breakdown on words a day, and discoveries about myself )

All in all, it's been a fun week so far. I haven't pushed myself too much, and I have set limits. For example, instead of playing Tropico like I want to (the old one - I still love that game so very much. One of these days I'm going to get a new computer that's able to run the new one. One of these days...) I wrote chapter 7.

I'll post an update next week! ♥

So, I finally got the chance to watch the anime "Cowboy Bebop". Don't worry - there are no major spoilers in this in case you haven't seen it.

First of all, it's not in a genre I prefer. In fact, the genres and tropes it falls under/exhibits are ones I usually actively avoid (Space, Destroyed Earth, etc.) - but since it's in the crime genre I dove right in. I mainly watched this out of desperation for something new to watch, when usually I would pass it by. Very rarely do I find something outside of my preferred genres that I like, and this show was a prime example of why I usually stick to those genres.

Overall, I didn't like it - but considering that it's not a genre I like, I'm really not that surprised. It really did nothing for me. It had its LOLtastical moments, but I felt underwhelmed by the storyline and the ending. I think had the Spike/Vicious animosity been addressed in all the episodes, i.e having each case connected to it, I might have liked it more. I do love the music, however.

It's funny, though. I took a peek at the fan fiction section, and Spike/Faye seems to be the most popular pairing. I saw more potential in Jet/Faye, personally.

National Novel Writing Month

Anyone doing it this year?

I'm thinking about doing it with original fiction.

Watched it last night. LOVED it! Not only was Batman awesome, but so was Amanda Waller (hoshit I ship Lex/Amanda - and not EVEN as a crack pairing) and even Superman didn't job to the other heroes (he was the shit in this!). It could have been longer, plus a lot of what happened in the comics was left out, but understandable.

Of course, one of my favorite parts was when Captain Marvel showed up. I wish they had fought longer, however, but I'm almost certain it was that way in the actual comics. I'm going to go back and read it again later on (haven't read it in years). I do know I want that theme song so very bad now. I also wish they would just animate the Superman/Batman comic books altogether.

Either way, this is another animated feature that I can point to and go "See? American stories don't always suck!". Also, after watching I immediately wrote a short fic. I'll post that in a few days, probably, after I post the last part to "Kinks". Looks like I'm back into the Batman/Superman game! I'll be going back and retooling the three Batman fics I posted on here along with my older KKM fics.

( Wolfram never joined in on the fun between Murata and Yozak. )

Though I'm still butthurt over the recent news that Mouri Kogoro's seiyuu is being replaced, the Detective Conan series has been drawing me back in with the latest manga arc. I ♥ Inspector Shiratori so much!

Speaking of detective anime, there's rumors that a group is going to pick up the anime Kindaichi Shonen no Jikenbo again, starting with episode 13 (or was it 14?). I hope this pans out, because I love that show about as much as Detective Conan. I'm also bored, and need a new series to watch - preferably mystery/thriller.

As for comic books, Batman Beyond is going to get a new mini! And, I just wanted to pimp out Batman and Sons, by the_dark_cat which is a cute webcomic dealing with Batman as a father. I have never laughed so hard at a portrayal of Batman before. Serious Batman business fanboys would go off into a hissy fit over this, I bet.

Speaking of comics, Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam is the only one I'm reading right now. I'm thinking about picking up Batgirl since I'm highly pleased by who's the new Batgirl. The new Robin can go DIAF, however; I hate him.

Taken from a Deadpool fic (which was sporked here):

I roll my rainforest-colored eyes.

I can't!

Also, after I post the rest of the Kinks drabbles, I'm going to go back and re-edit all my older fics. Tedious, but I was re-reading them the other day and cringing at my old mistakes (the blond did this, the blond did that, the fire mazoku this, the fire mazoku that + Holy italics, Batman!). I'm finalizing the second oneshot that goes to TAATS (which is the first fic I'm going to revamp). I'm also completely finished with the third oneshot (well, sometimes I go back and change things up at the last minute) - but the second one needs to go before that one. I'll probably post the next set of themed drabbles before either of those, however.

I still have 9 chapters of a Do. Not. Want. sequel sitting on my hard drive, as well as a crack M-preg and several oneshots. Eventually, I'll do something with them - even if that means cutting them up and using the parts in other stories.

Kanye West is a douchebag.

That is all.

What's up, everyone? I'm back online! I've missed everyone so much! I hope that everyone's in good health, and I'll try to catch up on everyone's posts, but I'll be busy since I'm in the process of finding another job (not subbing this year after all *sigh*).

All is well with me, I'm on DSL instead of Roadrunner now, and I'm trying to get used to it. This dumb thing keeps going down on me, but all should be fixed by tomorrow. I actually was hooked up Thursday, but every time I'd try to go to a webpage, I'd get knocked off the Internet. If I don't reply tonight, I'll definitely respond tomorrow.

My writing has been sort of slow due to things in my personal life picking up. I'm still working on Suitors, but I'm having a time due to being pulled into two different directions by two different plot ideas. I think I sort of wrote myself into a hole with that one - I should have done what I did with TAATS (lol will never be unfunny to me) and written the entire thing out at one time. I'll be posting some drabbles here and there, so something should be up.

Anyhow, I'm glad to be back, and I've missed everyone! *smooches*
