I’ve seem to be hitting writer’s block far too often now. My grade in my creative writing class is suffering because i don’t turn in anything because i’m never really satisfied with anything i do. all my good ideas seem to turn into bad ones once i write it down. How do you get pass writers…

I can’t understand why people honestly think It is cool any funny to harass artists in real life for drawing pictures they don’t like on the internet. And the people who get behind it because they don’t like that artist either? You’re just encouraging that type of behaviour and making cons worse…

      And two sisters moving to the area. Things have been a little slow this past week as not only has Travis’ sister moved to the area, but so has my youngest sister. Needless to say, we’ve been busy helping them get settled and show them around our town and introduce them to friends and reacquaint them with any family that happen to live in the area. We’ve been having a fantastic time.

      That said, this week should see more progress. Also, my beta reader/editor invited me to attend the local Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc. chapter (shire?)to see a lot of weapons and armor up close. Many are very knowledgeable and there’s a love for what they do present in everyone. Have a question? Someone is bound to know the answer. They loved the idea of pictures being taken for reference and were keen to talk with me and answer any questions I had. They even let me handle some of the weapons. I plan on going back next week to take pictures and ask more questions.

      I should be able to make more progress this week. Especially now that the summer term is looming ever closer. I want to try to get the edits done before all the homework arrives.
