Updated the other site so thought I should this one as I had been neglecting it as well. Not that there is anything to say, but then that is what makes it fun. Random thoughts being easier to write. Not easier to read perhaps. But so what?
I have to say it is good that there is a spell check or it would be even hard to read. as I said in a comment I can not spell to save me. Then anther guy just had to point out the things I and spell check did not catch. Oh well that just proved my point. lol (should looking into copying smiles some day.) sorry. now back to what I was saying.
What was it? Oh yes.
Well Stirling proved to be as good as I hoped. Rudie is making his way east. they have managed by the end to get to Iowa where the part once again gets split. I like that as technology fails magic is becoming more real. Though I was shocked a bit when the virgin Mary appeared to the priest. The pagan gods and goddess I could understand. After they only appeared at the ceremonies, where proper rites had been made. Or aspect on the battle filled where called, though that is more position then a true vision. And a lot would in other places be called battle fever. Though to quote a char from the book. "Just because you can explain it does not mean it is not magic."
In fairness the priest had been fasting for three days, or so we are told, then hikes up a snow covered mountain to pray. So I guess that ceremony was done there to. It is just more surprising as it is a fermiler tradition. And that we had not seen it getting so personal before. but then with the mains being Wiccan, the other is not seen as much. Anyway I am impatiently waiting for the next to hit pb.So I can see how they get out of jam and meet back up this time. I think it is one of the six or so that will come out in May. So many books and no time.
The one now started looks to be good but it is taking time to get going. likely do to the fact that I keep doing other things. It is takes some adjusting to accept that people take it for granted that others can and do own shares of them. That others can control them by have a Moriarty of there stock. Strange, but then most books I read are. Some just further out there than others. the thing is you are just plunged in with no explanation. but that is how it should be as there is no one in the story yet who needs an explanation so such would be out of place.
ok well that was that. likely I will never think to say more about the book.
well I am running out of time, as the kids will be wanting this computer in a bit and there are other things half done. Oh theses games, how they eat time, but how fun it is to see a city and army take shape as you create.
Oh right I should say something about witting. Well I am not writing every day, but on days when I do I come out around 600 a day so I think it will work out ok. only I need to do more if I am going to get any editing, beyond basic spelling, done by May. Witch I kind of am hoping to.
Ok that said.
GOOD NIGHT IMAGINARY, and not so imaginary, READER. hope you survived should you have tried to read this.
A lot of random thoughts. Perhaps a bit of since now and then, but don't count on it. This is mostly just what ever thoughts pop into my head as I set to write. there is little reason as to what is there. Subjects change randomly and not always as paragraphs do. Barbra

Last of '09
Just thought i would do one last post this year. Not there is anything to say, but then there never is. life is life. there is nothing outstanding to report, but nothing devastating either. So all is well, or at lest more well than wrong. I had hoped to have Dragon's Heir (how dose one underline? titles should be. but as I do not know how stupid italics will have to do.) done to night, but that is not to be. So Stirling must wait anther day to be opened. So many books calling and so little time.
And as I have signed up for write year I have even less time. there is just to much to do. I need to get on the ball and figure out how to fit it in. but in an odd way I need more to do before I am motivated enough to do that. I might be crazy for signing up like I did, but I think the goal I chose is reasonable enough. After all I did 60k + for nano, and that was just one month. So I should be able to hit 100k in 12. Right?
True I have a bad habit of only writing that one month. But before I signed up for nano I had not written 50k. In fact at that point very little was making it out of my head. This will give a chance for more of the stories to breath a bit. So in that since it is a good thing.
But where will I find the time? between the games I have going and the e-pets I tend I am on the computer to much as it is. The logical thing would be to give some of it up. But I can't. I just have to see things though. I tried this November. But it didn't work. I gave up one game, just to start in a different world. However I can tend the pets and one e-mail act. in 30 minuets then write for the next hour or two. That will still leave me time to read before dinner. then tend the others at night, before bed. Witch is what I should do anyway. granted it makes it riskier. but then there are a lot that only get on every other day, so once a day isn't so bad. and if so then perhaps I would be best in anther realm of that game I am not that suited for wars. Yes that is vague, but it must be. there is privacy issues with those thoughts. Yes it is only a game, but still. It is.
Man I am crazy. But at lest it is fun.
that said I think it is time I say good night. This is to fun. Just writing what ever I think.
Lord I wounder if anyone ever tryes to read this.
That said good night and good dreams.
Talk to you next year.

dreams
I had the strange dream last night and today I am finding I can't type. No relation I just now found out the typing thing so of course my fingers went with it. To close to Nov for backe space to work. Now the dream.
I was being hung from a pole and well. that is enough. Any way the thing it wail it scared me at first after a bit it seemed normal. Like it was an every day thing. (ok DoRD go away now) I have no idea where this could have come from, or anything. I was thinking of nano before bed. (yes I know that is what the other blog is for, but it fits.) yet there is no one in it who is beat. not that I know of. The bad dude is bad, but if so it would be a minor char. and happen off screen. The book I am half way reading, as said it is all most nano, dose have a sick person in it. but she has been missing for at lest a hundred pgs. so it is not that. Nothing on tv fits either . So just what caused this dream?
Not that I expect an answer. I just had to make up for my last one liner and the dream was something to talk about.
There was something, what was it? Why do I keep typing somthing I know it is something?!!
well I don't remember so.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

Nanowrimo is coming
Check it out http://www.nanowrimo.org
I had this all thought out but yelling has caused me to forget what I had planed. It was just some randomness about nano. So nothing importuned. Yet I am posting even so. That is me.
I have no idea just what I am going to write but I think there will be a person named Raven Storm Feather, as I can not get that name out of my head. Then a few days back I was looking though the Adopt pages and a Title caught my eye, but after thinking about using it I came up with a different one that felt right. Echoes of Yesterday and Tomorrow. But whether or not it will stay, I cannot say. It is odd, I usually do not have a clue as to tittle until a week or so in. Yet here one hit me.
However I have no idea as to a story that will fit it. In fact I have no story at all. Not that is fit for Nano. The once I am kicking around seem to go nowhere.
Maybe I will do something with dragons and two opposing tribes? Like see there is this child that gets born in the wrong place and taking in by the dragons and the people around them. Then one day something happens and she gets taken away. Sent to her "family". Who just happen to be from the cites where folks don't believe that the dragons are real. or that Magic is, or any of the other things the kid grew up know to be true. grew up in the middle of, a part of it. She is even bound to a dragon. Space means nothing. Yet the ones who um "rescued" her tell her it was all a dream, a delusion. That she will come to see the truth.
What do you think? Does it sound like anything?
I just don't know. It sounds to complicated to me. yet I want to know more. It is the best I have so far. The other just dies. It doesn't go anywhere.

I had somthing to say.
I opened this to post something but it has been driven from my mind,. So instead of what ever I had wanted to say I will just say here is a new entry.
It is all most Oct. witch means November and Nano is just around the corner. Soon I will be infected by novel madness. It comes on me yearly, and can be contagious, and is incurable, but not fatal. Thou it dose tend to lead to increased caffeine intake. And increased mumble and the midnight shouts of I got it, or that is it. Or grumbles about stupid plot holes and completes of about charter revolts. I can't wait. November maddens is like no other.
Even though I have no ideas and am worried that I will not find one. I can't wait.
Even though I dread the start I can't wait. I fear that the infection is all ready waking up. take the form of increased pointless blog posts. Aren't you glad that you are just an imagine reader.?
What is the point of this? I don't think there is one. unless it is to warn you to look for bits of unedited novel to appear here come Nov. unless I just leave those to myspace. but at this time I am thinking to put them in both places.
Good night and good dream Oh imaginary reader

Life
Just wanted to say hi to my imaginary reader. Nothing happening.
Had a bit of rain today
My last two books have been great. Not surprising with the current, but Speak was a new write. new to me that is. always nice to find a new one that takes me by storm. It could easily have been a one siting book. it was one that you hate to sat aside for anything.
well games awaiting so
night and good dreams to you oh imaginary readers.
