I am literally Madonna

October 14, 2007

Honestly I am. I only haven’t started a new blog because I like the url of this one. Seriously, Scattered Postcards is an inspired name. :-)

Well, it appears that the time of year is nearly upon us. Not Christmas. Don’t talk to me about bloody Christmas. I’m sick of it already! I mean National Novel Writing Month (or ‘NaNoWriMo’, if you want to be really smart). Despite  everything that has happened to me this year, I am sooooo doing this again. I had absolute ball last year. Its all just writing material isn’t it? This time, my challange is to actually finish a story that is 50,000 words or a bit over. Even worse, I’m just going to start off with a random sentence on the 1st of November and then stick with whatever comes out. Bring it on.

Urgh!

August 19, 2007

Dear sweet lord, I am bored today. All I have done all day is eat grapes, drink Kronenbourg, listen to Greenday and fiddle around on the intranet. I know I should be writing but I can’t be bothered.

The thing is that I owe some writing to a forum, but I don;t feel like writing it, and I feel guilty trying to write anything else. It’s a vicoius circle. I’m trapped between a rock and a hard place, desperately trying to pick between the fire and the frying pan (and other assorted clliches).

Balls.

I also think ‘balls’ might be my new favourite phrase, along with ‘Damn it all to pus-spewing, blood-splattered hell’. That too.

So, yes, I’m going to fuck about with my blog for a bit, because I can;t bring myself to do any writing. Sue me.
