    Depending on your time zone: Happy Halloween Happy Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Happy (  ) Dia de los Inocentes (All Saints Day) Happy (  ) Dia de los Muertos (All Souls Day) It appears that Week 3 has been released for the Yearly Anthology.

Review of Gay Themed Movie "Were the World Mine"

If I keep watching more gay movies, I might just end up making my own blog for reviewing these, but as for now, I will just write a review whenever I feel like it:   "Were the World Mine" was a movie made in 2008, so it is quite recent, but I did not hear about it until I began looking into a list of recommended gay themed movies.   First off let me get this off my chest, I hate Shakespeare adaptations in modern times, especially after watching the wreck that is "Private Romeo" (a gay themed

My Problem with Writing Right Now

When you've been depressed for a while, and you've found writing really hard, getting back into it can be a bit of a challenge. I'm feeling a lot better now. Going to school to study sound engineering this autumn, and it feels like my life is back on some kind of track. But the writing is still difficult.   The problem is that I have lots of ideas, and I want to get back to writing properly, I really do. But I'm mostly motivated to work on my new ideas. So I sit down thinking, 'I'm gon

My Supervisor Had One Crazy Paranormal Experience As A Teenager

I've been working as an intern in a museum with my supervisor, Katie, for the past couple of weeks. Today, we had a discussion that turned into the paranormal, and she told me about something that happened when she was a teenager. She tries to debunk crazy things that have happened, but this is one she hasn't been able to do. It was the summer after she graduated from high school, sometime in the second half of the 1990's. She was 18 at the time. Her friend Billy was a few years older, but stil

2014 Fall Anthology: Scars *Getting Started*

Now that the Summer Anthology: The Backup Plan has gone live, it’s time to look towards the upcoming 2014 Fall Anthology: Scars.   I thought it might be a good idea to share some thoughts on getting started with your next anthology story, if you haven’t already done so.   Have you thought about the plot for your story? The topic “Scars” can lead in so many different directions. It could be physical, it could be mental, and it could only be a tangential link to the theme. Your entire story do

Menace Years

Adulthood

It's been a few weeks since I've turned eighteen. Metamorphosing from teen to adulthood was kind of scary when I thought about it. But I'm more scared of being an adult.   Under my sugarcoated happiness and weirdness, I have fears of things that it's sometimes stupid and childish at most but also maybe it's because I'm having an early mid-life crisis.   Under my armor, I'm scared of what will become of the future. The unforeseen sights and events that could occur in my life. I wonder what is

Officially as of 1:47 PM today, I am a homeowner

My blogs are pictures of my life at a certain point in time, so on my birthday on all the possible days for this to happen, I close on my house.   I can bore you with the process that had occurred through the last 2 months, but I won't. Suffice to say, I believe the Municipal government of Boston is incredibly corrupt and is getting kickbacks from contractors in order to enforce ordinances that seem on paper to be easy to follow, but in practice, require an accuracy that can only be done by m

eBook Review: Let it Ride by L.C. Chase

Let it Ride by L.C. Chase My rating: 4 of 5 stars   I read Let it Ride... and then let it ride. It's hard to write this review without spoiling the story. My first impressions of Bridge were of a big, affable cowboy whose everyone's friend on the surface. Under that, he has a great big heart that's set on Eric. Eric is cautious, and with his past, slow to trust.   Watching their dance play out as they go from the private 'I want him, does he want me?' moments to the end was great. At no tim

Interesting Conversation with my boss

So today I had a meeting with my boss to do my monthly performance review. Usually it is done face to face but this time it was via telephone.   We talked about my numbers for the quarter and what I have been doing and trouble I am stirring up in a good way.   So the good news: I work the next 3 days but have been told not to do anything relating to our team email box. Not because I am going on vacation but because I have done triple the amount they want us to complete. Some people are strug

I need to vent!

For the past few months, I've had the misfortune of having to work three jobs to keep my head above water financially. This is getting increasingly harder to do now that one job is done for the summer season and the remaining two are constantly cutting back on hours. I've worked almost 50 hours a week sometimes working two jobs a day for three months. But now I find myself barely working twenty hours combined for the last two weeks. How am I supposed to pay bills and rent when my jobs are taking

Transition

By no means do I have a particularly complex job... but it turns out I do have a broad base of responsibilities. Until you start writing your "transition" documents, you don't realise just how "big" your job is.   I am writing four separate transition briefings. The first two are client specific, for my two major clients and are currently running at around 10,000 for client (1) and 8,000 for client (2).

Featured Story: The Matchmaker Is Grounded

It's the start of another week and that means it's time to look at a new story. I'm always asking for reviews for the blog (by the way, if you want to do a review, PM me) so this week I decided it was past time that I did another review for the blog. With so many talented authors on site, it was hard to choose a story to review. In the end, I decided to review "The Matchmaker is Grounded" by Dark. I hope you enjoy the review and that it inspires you to check out Dark's story. The Matchmaker i

Writing an interesting character, real ancient royalty

As I am getting older and wiser as a human being and a writer, I am recognizing a lot of fictional tropes that people fall into when writing characters. In order to create picture perfect fiction, writers fall into stereotypes like the fairy tale storyline of medieval and ancient kingdoms.   For example, the princess stereotype is not merely a Disney concoction, but a revisionist historical view of females in actual history. Actual princesses did not stew around in their rooms looking pretty a

So all is good.   However, I hadn’t told my mother yet. As many of you have heard, my mum can be a bit of a nightmare. She has a lot

Tired of being Sick, going on vacation

My friendly mosquitoes gave me something fun. It's called Chikungunya and it really sucks balls ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chikungunya ).   In addition to an astonishing fever, you get arthritis affecting multiple joints and insomnia. There's other fun that I missed out on.   The fever part lasts a couple of weeks but the joint inflammation is only just beginning to subside. It's been a couple of months and I am feeling a lot better. Just never thought I would catch something that comes
