Almost ten watchers, and over 3,000 pageviews on my DeviantArt! I can’t BELIEVE it!
Thank you to all. I can’t tell you how happy I am!
On a side note, I’ve been busy with videos, (I’m soon-to-be professional director!). I entered in the contest that the CW held (Making the Cut) and my video made it into the finalist round! Even if I don’t win the internship, this is fantastic news.
Here is the video!
All in all… the past couple of days have been beyond any words that would be able to describe my happiness.
Just made a page titled, “Links/Affiliates.” Yeah, yeah. I know. Very original. So far, only friend’s sites are affiliates. But! I’m hoping that it’ll grow.
Here are the affiliates!
Speaking of chadlings… http://www.chad-lindberg.com is the first un-official site for the fan-freaking-tastic actor, Chad Lindberg (big duh there). You may know him as Ash aka Doctor Badass from the hit series Supernatural. I am a helper on that site (which is a big WHOOP for me!), and am the video maker and a forum admin.
I also made all the pretty little buttons that you see there for linkage. *big grin*
Just a quick update: I am at 10,000 words in my book. Only 40,000 to go until I’m at the minimum requirement. It may seem like a lot, but I’m happy.
On a different note (well, not so different), NaNoWriMo starts in 86 days. You remember the feeling that you had before you took your first dive off the diving board at a pool? It’s a mixture of fear and excitement that is so exhilarating you stand there for a few moments before you force yourself off. The feeling that grips your heart and squeezes so tight you have problems breathing.
Or how about your first kiss? Or just a kiss from that special someone. Your soul nearly implodes which causes your knees to shake. After you walk back inside your house, you lean against the door and feel like you could fly away to the Moon. To Mars. To Jupiter! You feel as though you could do several laps around the universe.
That’s how I feel right now. I am so excited to do NaNoWriMo this year. It isn’t the feeling of achievement that you get when you win (although, that’s a big contribution) is the competition. The thrill of competing against several hundred, maybe even a thousand, people around the world. Then, when you win, you feel like you could anything. ANYTHING!
Wow, it has been ages since I’ve posted here! I can’t believe how long it’s been. Let’s see what’s been going on…
I am doing the Script Frenzy thing that NaNoWriMo does in April. As the title suggests, it is when you have a month to write a 100 page script. So far, I’m on page 40, which is really good if you think about it. I came up with a title, called Abandon All Hope, based off of Dante’s ‘Inferno.’ Here is the text that I used to base my script off of:
Through me you pass into the city
of woe:
Through me you pass into eternal
pain:
Through me among the people lost
for aye.
Justice the founder of my fabric
mov’d:
To rear me was the task of power
divine,
Supremest wisdom, and primeval
love.
Before me things create were none,
save things
Eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
I love that verse. It is from ‘The Inferno.’ I changed the last line to make it fit with the movie title.
You should be able to get the general feel of my idea for the movie. All hope is abandoned, yadda yadda. It is based in the future, December 21, 2012 and aliens come to destroy the world as we know it. That is all I’m going to say because I don’t want someone to steal my idea.
Lets see…what else has happened…OH! There is a good possibility that I broke my ankle a few months back and I didn’t know it. I know, right? How would you not know that you broke your ankle? Well, it must have been a tiny bone, so I could have gone on with my life without knowing.
It was stupid how I did it, too. I was training in martial arts, kicking a punching bag. There was a guy in front of me that kicked it up right when I went to kick it. I couldn’t stop my foot and WHAM! I hit it full force. If I did it properly, I would have busted up my shin (probably get a techno colored bruise) and would be fine now. But, I didn’t. And I hit it full force. The punching bag didn’t move a bit, which just made it worse. So, now, I have to wait for the doctor to have an opening for me so I can get it checked out.
I don’t regret doing it, though. I love martial arts, and I miss it terribly. I haven’t been able to go for a few months (for health reasons) so, now, I’m out of shape. I’m working on getting back into shape, but it is hard because of my ankle. And, what is so funny is this: Because of my ankle, I have to accommodate for it, which is hurting my hip. Then I have to accommodate for that, which is really hurting my back, and that is connected to my neck. You know the song, “…the leg bone is connected to the hip bone…” yadda yadda? Never seen it in work like I do now.
Lets see…I think that’s pretty much it! I have to go back to work on my script before I loose this idea of mine.
I hope that everyone had a blessed Easter.
Okay, sorry, I just HAD to post that. I love that picture!
I just wanted to thank everyone for voting for me at Ajana. It means a lot to me, believe it or not. I am now in the finals, and soon to be onto the semi-finals. Come check back here for more info next week!
So, everybody dance now!
On a darker note, here is a new poem that I am writing. It is called ‘The Black Hand of Justice’ inspired by Within Temptation’s ‘Hand of Sorrow.’ Enjoy!! ((Remember! It is a work in progress!))
Picture done by me!
The Black Hand of Justice
What is man,
But a selfish race dying for revenge? A whisking willow,
A dying Hindu.
Mayhap a man dies cold and alone,
Or the rains accompany him to Hell? A sinister child,
A butchered dog.
Turn your head into the wind, Michiko,
You must not eat the blood. Thump in the night,
Break your bone.
Why do you cry?
Do you cry me tiny tears of silver? Sing me a lullaby,
I cannot sleep ((ever, ever sleep)).
