Hey,

Well, my Journey chapter has been sent off to my beta. It is 19 pages long, and 8,000 words, which is a bit longer than I had expected it to be, but I'm satisfied with it (for the most part). It's Sess/Rin centric, so that's always a treat for me. As soon as I can get it back from the beta and edited a final time, I'll post it. I hope that this will happen sometime this weekend, but we shall see.

The next thing I intend on doing is writing another installment to Songs of Faith and Devotion. I will be writing a songfic centered around the Depeche Mode song "Home" this time, and with Rin's POV. The stories won't really have a "connection" to one another, so it's not necessary to read Shake the Disease to understand Home when it's finished. It'll probably be awhile, though!

While I'm working on that, I'll be plotting the next chapter of Journey, some drabbles, and maybe doing a couple Games requests. We'll see. I also would like to tackle some original writing projects I have made some notes for here and there.

Other than that, I hope you'll enjoy the next chapter of Journey.

Until next time,

Far Away Eyes

Hey,

Well, I hope everyone's May is going well thus far. I know I haven't journaled in awhile, but I've been busy! I worked a lot in April, so that consumed much of my time. I also spent a lot of time working on the next chapter for Journey. I am happy to announce that it is finished, but now I wait for my beta's response on it. As soon as I get a response (or I get way too impatient and post the "un-betaed"), I'll post it for your enjoyment. I am hoping that you'll like it, despite the point of view we're visiting this go round. Speaking of Journey, it took 1st Place at the Feudal Association for Best Characterization of Inuyasha and 3rd for Best Inu/Kag Romance. I'd like to thank everyone who participated. It means a lot to me.

I have also been writing a few drabbles, and much to my surprise they sometimes even win! Here are the banners I have gotten in the last month:


In other news, I have been watching a lot of Ranma. I have the first Perfect Set, and I must say that it is highly addictive. I tell myself I will watch one, and only one, episode, and end up watching anywhere from 4-7 in  a row. It's hilarious and fun, what can I say? I also have all of my Inuyasha US manga releases, so now I can focus on catching up on Ranma. I have 6 volumes so far. Now I have to decide what I want to buy next, another Inuyasha DVD set, a Ranma DVD set, or manga?

Otherwise, that's pretty much it. I will actually get a chance to work on my resume again on Monday or Tuesday, as I have finally gathered a good chunk of my portfolio again. Hopefully that'll help get the career search going again. I most certainly do NOT want to spend the rest of my life in retail, that's for sure!

Until next time,

Hey,




Anyways, I better get into my before bed routine and get some sleep. 3 AM comes so very early, after all!

Until next time,
