Vegetating

Yeah, I’m completely vegetating on Dragon Quest IX.  Great game.

I’ve said it before, but everything goes back to RPG games.  My writing comes from my PnP RPG, and that comes from video games.  Sometimes, I have to go back to my roots for a few weeks and just have fun with no deadlines, plot problems, or fussy characters refusing to come on set.

I’m still hoping to finish that Halloween story, but I’m not going to push it.  Fighting the writing blahs has proved to be the worst thing I can do in the past.

Tryin’ to get it back together

Being off the computer long enough for my back to quit aching has gotten me out of the habit, so it’s taking me a while to get back on the writing horse.

There’s just nothing singing to me right now.  I’m musing at work, but just nothing coming on strong.  Once I get a solid inspiration, I should be able to get rolling again.  Until I manage that, I’m in a bit of a rut =P

Lit’s Year End Awards

Lit’s Year End Awards are finally up and running after umpteen delays.  I made it to the finals in this one with Forever of the Wood.

You have to have an account with Literotica to vote, but it is free to sign up.  If you’ve never visited the forums before, you might just find your favorite authors hanging out around there and get a glimpse of them “behind the scenes”, so to speak.

There’s a fair amount of backbiting, sniping, and politics, but there are always gems out there.  And, if you have any aspirations of your own to write, there are plenty of people who can help guide you on your way, helping you avoid the common mistakes new authors make.

The awards are the important thing right now.  Here’s a link to cast your vote for Forever of the Wood, if you think it’s worthy.

I’m also going to plug one of my favorite stories, in the Humor/Satire category.  I was laughing out loud all the way through this one.  While only chapter two is linked and nominated in the thread, you’ll obviously want to read chapter one as well.  Trust me, you won’t be dissapointed.

And Soon My Evil Plan… Ch. 01

And Soon My Evil Plan… Ch. 02

And finally, the voting thread for the category:

Almost there

Only a bit left in that sex scene, and just below the 11k word mark on SOTM 17.  I’m going to try to wrap it up today.

Then, I’ll be knuckling down on Lowborn 07.  I’d really like to get that one finished and start posting it.  I’m intending to do two chapters a week, unless a contest falls in the middle.  If a contest interrupts, I may very well pause completely.  I certainly won’t put out more than a chapter a week if that happens.
