Hello, pointless blog. I haven't updated you in a while, have I?
Novel update: I've been working on the super absolutely definitely final draft, and have nearly finished Act 1. (Of 4). Weighs in at a sprightly 17769 words at the moment, which is about right.

In the time since I last posted, I've changed jobs, moved house three times, and quit smoking.
Things now on the big self-improvement list:

Finish novel
Quit smoking
Get on diet
Manage money better
Move into place that is not a hovel/expensive/filled with psychos
Fix bicycle
Pass driving test

Fairy tales

I've decided to lose the expository history I've been writing, and re-write it in the form classical fairy tales. Because I can, and because I'm nuts.

Haiku.

I have come to a realisation.
Haiku are sanity bullets that you fire out into a crazy world.
Heh.
Cheers

I'm in the process of designing another site, one that will be a forum/community of like-minded writers.
It's going to be called the Unworthy Literature Guild, and it's goign to be awesome.
I'll probably keep my blog on there once I've finsihed it, and shut this little sucker down for good. It's served me well, but flat php/css is not the way to go now I've learned drupal properly.

New netbook!

This is the very first post I've made on my new netbook. It's very shiny, but it's running too damn slow. I've got some new RAM for it, but you have to take the thing apart to do it. Seeing as I only got three hours of sleep last night, I think that can wait until tomorrow.
Also; teeny0tiny keyboard with keys in odd places!
