Strolling with News Reels

A stroll down revision lane

I’ve started the revision/editing process for my NaNo novel. This is going to a be a slowly–very slowly–but surely project. As long as I keep up with it and do a little bit each week, it will see the light of day. I think working from an outline was the best idea I’ve ever had. The ending was planned out and written down before I even started writing!

I’m thinking about drawing a comic of one of the chapters. The chapter is unique in that it can stand alone as a short story. I’ve drawn several sketches so far. Here is one of them:

From the burpleberry news reel

Mr. Burple Berry completed his first ever Fiction Friday on twitter. He successfully wrote a story in 140 characters. The wingless ding is sitting back and enjoying the sights and sounds of Earth while he plots his next story. He dropped by to give us a copy and next week’s prompt. Word has it that he is spending his lazy Sunday afternoon doing word search puzzles.

His boot crunches into a gritty substance. The brawny alien before him jabbers in gibberish; the translator catches it. “Welcome to Earth.” – Mr. Burple Berry

Mr. Burple Berry invites you to join him next Friday, March 8th, for another round. This week’s prompt is “Meteor.”

SGS: Creativity!

Looking at Heather’s wonderful prompts, I just realized that April is almost over. Is it really the last Sunday of the month already!? How did that happen? Even with quarantine it feels like it just zipped by! This week’s Seriously Geeky Sundays theme hits close to home, and I am super excited about it. As you all know, I’m an artist who loves to draw, paint, write, and sew! 26th April – Creativity What does creativity in fandoms/geeky interests mean to you? EVERYTHING. Just look at Club High Castle! High Castle is the one fandom where I’ve felt like I’ve been allowed to flourish. The countless hours and dedication I’ve put into the things I’ve created has been appreciated by both fans and the cast and crew. I have never experienced anything like it, and it has genuinely made me happy over the years. I’ve been in other fandoms where art and things just slipped by unnoticed–not that I’m seeking attention, but knowing that there are people out there who enjoy my...

Saving the world with High Castle and Field Team 6

Tuesday I had the awesome pleasure of joining the Axis of Good (Joel de la Fuente, Rufus Sewell, Chelah Horsdal, Stephen Root, Jason O’Mara, Frances Turner, Michael Gaston, Sebastian Roché, and Isa Hacket) with Field Team 6 for an evening of textbanking. Let me tell you about the absolute blast I had! I didn’t know what to expect–was I nervous going in? You bet I was! I am probably the shyest person you’ll ever meet…until you get to know me, that is! The week started off with absolute chaos, as 2020 weeks often do. I spent that day doing a bunch of house projects which involved a lot of nit and grit. I scrambled to get my laptop ready in time without bothering to fix my hair and without any attempt at looking presentable. Normally fans are muted and shuffled to the back of these things. Well….I clicked the link and HELLO WORLD! Hello Joel in particular because I know you saw me fumbling around and flustered! 😉 After a minute or so, I managed to turn my...

Chasing Frequencies

The past few weeks have been busy and stressful. I’m posting an update to let you all know that I’m still here! The end of month post for October will be uploaded sometime this week. I’m hoping that things calm down soon and that I’ll be posting regularly again! In other news, I am doing NaNoWriMo this year! I’m 7583 words in so far. As for my illustrations and that project, I’m almost finished with it. The formatting is almost done. I can’t wait to finish it and to show it off!
