CloverReef

I love October!  Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Prime have the best scary movies in October.  I have been watching them all day!

I think I might be waking up or something. I’ve just written some kind of beginning for a fun little Clegane/Brienne/Tormund fic. Just need to work out some plausible details. Writing Clegane’s pov atm, but might chop and change about. Hard to tell yet.

Yay! Beyond the Milky Way is complete! 14.2: The Esperian Child 

I want to put something witty, upbeat and positive here, but this is me, so…
(insert swear words of choice)
You may have noticed I’m never online. Sorry about that. I’m really ill. Can’t even read atm. I've restarted Matt Haig’s latest about half a dozen times now. Still haven’t got past the first four pages. Goldfish have better concentration and mental agility than me right now.
I can’t even do you any politics…
Well, except to say to all: Fight fascism, with everything you’ve got. But then, that’s not really politics. That’s just basic humanity. I still have some of that left in me.
So, apologies if you’re waiting on me to reply to emails/admit I’m alive/do something I’ve forgotten. I honestly don’t mean to be ignorant. I just have zero energy. I have no idea when normal service will be resumed.
This status update is the most writing I’ve done in weeks. 

Just got a job! Finally! Working with animals too! I'm so excited... and I just can't hide it... Fuck. Now I got that song in my head.

Recently I wrote something.. and it's really close to my heart. 
How much more should I burn
   that even the fire would get
          scared of my face..!

How much more should I break
   that even the Sands wouldn't
          mind if I tag along..!

How much more should I harden
  my heart that it'd come across
        as a stone to the bea..!

How much more should I soften
 myself that my thoughts would
   acquire a state of tranquillity..!

 

The very happiest of birthdays to the amazing pippychick! Love you, lass!    

Just wrote this and had to share…. “Good thing that’s not Pinocchio's dick, no room for lies.”

We have new hires, that are even trained!  Let’s see how long this lasts, to where I can actually work a NORMAL week.  Keeping my fingers crossed!

Happy Fourth of July, to those that celebrate it. 

It’s Canada’s 150th today! Happy Canada day!

I'm now legally old enough to drink; although I'll never want to.

Posting a brand new story feels kinda like flashing strangers. You kinda feel exhilarated, kinda insecure, hoping your boobs aren’t lopsided, you spend the whole time trying to glean approval from their reactions, and at the same time reaaaallly wanna put your top back on… Or is it just me?

Hectic, stressful and nonsensical… but that’s just my life atm. Now onto the election.
Everyone lost, but Labour won. Labour is not forming a government… yet. I predict another election by October, which Labour will win by a landslide. And when I say Labour, I mean socialist Labour. Bring it on!
Kensington is Labour! The richest people in the country voted for socialism! Also Canterbury, which Labour has never held, ever, is now red. New poll today shows the surge continuing, meaning Labour would win outright an election if it was held now.
Not sure what you guys make of it across the pond. There’s a good Irish contingent amongst you. Tories making deals with the DUP breaks the Good Friday agreement. This is awful. Remains to be seen how much damage May can cause negotiating with the EU, given that she shown herself to be utterly inept in every way. We’d be better off sending the Chuckle Brothers. “No deal is better than a bad deal”… wtf?! No deal means standard WTO tariffs for EU market access, which is 40% on agricultural goods. 
 

And I’m home. I had never realized before how essential I am, since it is apparently impossible for the household to function unless I am there to be the chauffeur, cook, laundry person, and all-around dogsbody. I’m going to fire my family, although the corgi can stay.

So the job program I’m in, that’s been taking up all my time and getting in the way of me writing awesome shit, is going to end in 2 weeks. Right on my birthday. Part of me really hopes I get a job out of this. Nothings more stressful than wondering how you’re going to survive the month. 

But a huuuuge part of me – the big fat hermit with the mullet and the shotgun that lives in the back of my shoulders – wants to get time to myself again. I miss being able to stay up all night, writing for 10 hours straight, and following that with a 4 hour betaing session for friends. I’ve been a writer for 18 years – more than half my life. I have no idea how the majority of you guys are able to work all day and still have the mental capacity to churn out a page or two. 

Woohoo.  Australia now holds the new world record for having gone the longest without a recession, which is 26 years, and still counting.

Time in the story where I most frequently have existential crises, and question all the skills I’m normally (over)confident of…? The first. Frickin. Sentence.
And yes. I deleted and redid this status because of a typo. FML.
