Me and my girl...

Finally remembered to upload  the pictures onto my computer... We had fun this day getting our pictures taken... and afterwards, we went to a pub and had an awesome counter tea. So no one tell her that I have plastered her picture up everywhere or she'll kick my arse.

Okay changed my mind back...

Two reasons why I've decided to stick with Sons of Evenmore: Blood to Blood as my NaNoWriMo story:

1. I saw these two pictures and it gave me a whole new run on the storyline itself (guy in picture by himself - Dominic Cervola. Taller man in other picture Ollun: Mercer & shorter guy Jhex Lunos).

2. And the most important reason - Em threatened to kick my arse if I didn't get this story written.

ON OTHER NEWS:

I have relatives coming to stay for the weekend... this should be interesting as one is a young kiddo who the last time I saw her two years ago talked a mile a minute.

I'm also going through my dropbox and have been checking on WIPS and seeing which to keep, which to toss & which to place on the back burner for now.

I think I have changed my mind.

I saw this picture and got the insane urge to scrap my planned NaNoWriMo story and write this one instead... I have a ton of notes on a series: story... called Day-walkers: Together We'll Be Something More. Yet the story idea now running around inside my head is so different from all the notes I had planned out. So I will be starting from scratch... but this is the story that is waking me up at odd hours and demanding to be written.

Imagine if you will the guy on the left and the guy in the middle both have shoulder length black hair... Their names (L-R) are Claude Reynar, Hayden Gillis, & Mitch Evans.

I just wanted to let you all know where my mind was heading.

Waking the Demon

Yes, today I feel like I have a demon inside of me and his name is Vladimir... my bastard of a muse is still off on vacation and I need him home ASAP. It has been a week since I have written anything at all, and it is starting to freak me the hell out.

On other news: I have spent that time cleaning my office after returning from the Oz MM Meet in Sydney earlier this month. I had so many ideas that it sent Vlad running. Looks like it is up to me this time to sort my head out... he's taken Michael Marsden & Doyle Kerwin with him - I hope he brings them back in one piece.

Sitting here I realise I need to rearrange my noticeboards again, so that it makes it easier to get to some important bits of information... Things I have tacked up - like story idea's/notes/my necklaces...etcetera - all the important stuff.

LASTLY

Red Sunday

Today I'm feeling a tad red... it could be because I have so much to do and no time to do it in... Or it could be because my Muse has gone on vacation with my Sanity and haven't left me a date they'll be back by- Hope it's by November 1st when NaNoWriMo starts.

My office looks like a cyclone has just blown through it - why do people think it's okay to dump there junk all over my office desk? Then I have to clean everything up by sorting through it and putting it away.

I have two of my nieces coming to visit next weekend it will be good to see them as I haven't seen them in two years.

I'm having a spruiking (being proud of myself) moment today as well... First time ever I am finally on top of all my taxes... & I plan on staying that way. I have finally gotten into a routine of sending everything off to my book keeper at the end of every month. Though while filing stuff away I didn't realise until I'd finished one folder that I have to pull everything out and do it all again because I put everything in the folder backwards.

I haven't heard back from Steve L (MLR editor) on The Lines Of Marsden: Living In Shadows... Nor do I know what stage Experimentals: Blessed With A Curse is at. I fricken hate waiting, but in all honesty - I don't know how busy Steve L is. I just hope I hear about them soon so I can let all of you know.

Today I am...

My hubs as wonderful as he is put up some more shelving in my office/library extension and I have just sorted and put up all my DVD's only to find that a shitload of them are missing - Fast & Furious number 4 is just gone - why would you only take one DVD out of a set and Harry Potter 7.2 is gone as well and a heap of my very bad vampire and werewolf books has vanished. - Man it pisses me off when they just magically seem to walk away and everyone you ask swears that they don't have them.

You know you're having a bad day when...

• When the first words out of your kiddo's mouth is "Mum, I'm so sorry." Then she brings her hands from behind her back to show you she has accidentally knocked water all over your marriage certificate and ruined it... Yes, the one she promised to be careful with...
• When you have to drive for 15 hours to pick one of your workers up from hospital and then drive him all the way into Brisbane and not get home until 9:30 pm.
• When you go to drink your coffee only to find the cat has beaten you to it, and left fur floating on the top.
• When you want to write - something/anything and your mind has gone totally blank.

Well that pretty much sums up my days yesterday and today... 

I hope tomorrow is better.
