Hello all! I need your help - I just created a new blog for "critiquing" writing - both published and not.

It's right here, and I need your help to get the ball rolling on this. I want some traffic. And I'd love to critique some of your writing on it. Let me know if I can - send me something, preferably prose. Maybe even a synopsis. Something from your NaNoWriMo? But be warned - the blogs called "book shreds" for a reason. I'll be tough. ^^

Please do. :D I need all the help I can get. In the mean time, follow it, watch it, pimp it, whatever. I love you all.

New skin! Pretty, huh? NaNoWriMo is in the air, and I seem to be going strong. *fist pump* Add me as a buddy, and I'll add back. We can help each other out!

In the mean time, enjoy these nice pieces of art -

------------FEATURES



Good luck, all, and I hope you're all doing okay.

Love love,

Michelle

Well, it's that time of the year! Today is the first of November, and I know I'll be writing like crazy today. I already have 200 words from midnight! ^.^ I have semi-plotted out my novel, but not everything.

HERE'S MY WIDGET!




If you're participating, tell me!

Good luck to everyone, including me. I'll keep you posted on how it goes.

P.S. - my name is prosaic-scriptor on the nano site.

And I also got my care package yesterday, what a great gift that was!

Wicked

Well, this weekend I went to see Wicked in San Francisco. There was a standby for Elphaba - Vicki Noon, but boy was she amazing. The woman who played Galinda/Glinda was spectacular, too. Although she did manage to be realllly annoying as Glinda. Kristin Chenoweth did a better job of making her more lovable. Anyhow, the music was amazing, everything was fantastic. I cried at For Good/Defying Gravity - but I knew I would, anyway. Also, I teared up when Nessa was yelling at poor Elphie. Oh, Fabala, what has happened to you?

I read the book first, though, so the original version of the story will always be my favorite. There were quite a few discrepancies, but that was to be expected. A few - SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER


were Fiyero and Glinda (wtf?), Elphaba living, Fiyero living, no implied romance b/w Elphie and Glinda, and Liir not even having a part. Also, they made Elphie out to be a lot more innocent in the play. She was the victim, only the victim! *sad face* In the book, she wasn't really a victim - she was just human. She made mistakes, like sleeping with someone else's husband, and killing small children (>.>;) and yet, people made her out to be much worse than she truly was. I liked the book better. Gregory Maguire's writing is pure prose; it's amazing. I could read Wicked every day of my life. I cry every time, too.

Also, I realized that I cry almost once a week. Maybe it's because I tear up at books, and I read so many? Hmm.

Love love,
Me.

Well, I guess you guys haven't heard from me in a while. I haven't had a subscription for what, 4-5 months now? And I've had my beta tester symbol this entire time. Guess what message I got today, after I wondered at my "one week" subscription?


"We totally figured it out.

You thought you'd punk'd us, but the jig is up! We noticed that your Beta Tester symbol stuck, even after your Premium Membership expired. But sadly, most good things must come to an end. Our geeky developers were finally able to track down this bug in the matrix of deviantART and squash it. However, because you clearly love that symbol sooo much, please enjoy a free 1 week Premium Membership on us! (Hopefully you'll see the light and come back as a real Beta Tester in the future. Oooh snap!)
Fella iz laughing at j00"

Damn it!!! Now I have to act like a regular member. Ah, well. C'est la vie.

Anyways, I'll enjoy this sub while I can, I guess. :P I still have my blog going, so if I'm inactive here and you want to know what's happening with me... Check it out!

I'll also have you know that I now have the ultimate, super sexy Studio 17 (all I could afford right now) Dell. I wanted a Mac, but, SHOCKER, I'm broke. So more poetry (if I were motivated) should be up. Working on my novel, kind of, and trying to get my RPG skills up - [link]

I am also highly proficient in C++ now. Bitches.

#iostream<>

using namespace std

void()
{

int num, num2;
char block;

}


I'd write more but... no. And, FYI, that code makes no sense. It's just defining variables that I haven't used. >.>

See ya,

Michelle/Kate

Summer

Thu Jun 11, 2009, 1:47 PM
Ah, yes, it is that time of the year. Today the school year ended officially for me, and summer is nigh. I plan to spend it editing my book, along with being more active on my RPG site. We'll see how that goes!

I'm also mourning the anniversary of my godmother's death. She was very important to me, and I loved her a lot. I only just realized that every single one of my first favorite books was given to me by her. The Golden Compass and the Subtle Knife, the first three Harry Potter books... She wrote something in each of them, and when I read them, I think of her.

Rest in peace, Sharon. I love you still.

Happy summer, all of you! Enjoy life, and the warmth!

Off to my pool. Maybe I'll post more stuff soon. Blech.
