It's Wednesday again, which means it's time for another chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy. It's Chapter Five, so we're now at the halfway point, so yay and stuff. Here's an excerpt: Read the rest of Chapter Five here. Also, I am happy to announce that yesterday I finished writing BIONICLE: The Legend Imploded, the final comedy in my parody trilogy. I will need to edit it, however, so don't expect to see it anytime soon. I will say, however, that I think it is probably the best and funnie
At the top of the blogs, I saw an interesting advertisement for a writer's publishing kit (or something like that. Can't remember what it was exactly, except that it had something to do with writing). Anyway, it had the delightful title of "Becoming an Writer," which I think tells you all you need to know about these people and their abilities as writers. Unfortunately, I do not have a picture of it, but it was there and I had a good laugh at it, so I'm in a pretty good mood right now. -TN
I almost forgot to post this week's chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy, due to being away for about a day. Thankfully, the mere sight of BZP reminded me of my weekly duty, so you are all blessed enough to read more of my writing. Here's an excerpt: Read the rest of Chapter Four here. -TNTOS-
It's Wednesday again, which means it's time for another new chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy. Here's an excerpt from Chapter Three: Read the rest of Chapter Three here. -TNTOS-
Today I got the third and final book in the Kane Chronicles series, The Serpent's Shadow. I've only read up to Chapter 5 so far, but it's pretty good so far. I've been meaning to get this book for a while (as I already have the first two), but I've never had the money to buy it until just recently, so yay and stuff. -TNTOS-
It's Wednesday again, which means it's time for another chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy. Here's an excerpt: Read the rest of Chapter Two here. -TNTOS-
As of today, I have posted the first chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy. Here's a short excerpt to get y'all interested: Read the rest of the first chapter here. I will update the epic once a week every Wednesday. I will also post a blog entry every Wednesday advertising the newest chapter with a short excerpt, similar to what I'm doing here. -TNTOS-
A few days ago I finished editing The Ghost King's Tragedy. I'm confident that it's ready for posting; however, the release date is still August 1st. Besides, I might do some last minute editing, which is something I always do before posting a new fanfic or chapter of a fanfic. Usually it's something simple, such as word choice or arrangement, so often what you see posted on BZP looks a little different from what is writen in my Word documents. Also, I'm proud to announce that I've officially
So I just downloaded Skype recently and it works on my computer and everything, but the problem is that whenever I click the "Add contacts" button, a screen pops up that says "You don't seem to have an active internet connection. Please check your connection and try again." I've checked my connection several times already and it still says that. I even disconnected and reconnected my Internet connection and it still doesn't work. My Internet connection works just fine (otherwise how would I be
While at Wal-Mart yesterday, browsing the video games, I noticed that they had, apparently for sale, Kingdom Hearts 3D. This is interesting because KH3D is supposed to come out in America on the 31st. Yesterday was the 27th, meaning Wal-Mart was selling the game four days early. I didn't buy it, but it was interesting to see that they were selling it early. (At least, I think they were selling it. It wasn't on a shelf, but it was in the case they keep all of the video games. Bet I could have g
Howdy, y'all!* In anticipation of my upcoming epic, The Ghost King's Tragedy, I've decided to share a short excerpt from the story. This is from Chapter 3 and it probably won't make a lot of sense until I post the epic itself, but if it generates interest then I'll be happy. So here it is: The jungle was just like Kiriah remembered it: hot and humid, with vines and tree branches sticking in their path. It was just as muddy, too, and more than once Kiriah nearly slipped. She didn’t feel s
Looks like my ad (that's what it is, I won't lie) for my upcoming short epic, The Ghost King's Tragedy, has been approved and is on the Calender. Check out August 1st on the Calender to see it. I am most likely going to use this for future fanfics because this seems like an easy way to increase awareness of my works. -TNTOS-
Some of you might remember a short epic I was working on some time ago, which was known as The Ghost King's Tragedy. I put it aside for a while to work on an original novel, but recently I have been working on it again and I am pleased to say it is almost ready for posting. Assuming I don't run into any unexpected problems, expect to see the first chapter of The Ghost King's Tragedy on August 1st. So, to get y'all excited, here's a short preview of the epic. It's more of an explanation of wh
I saw The Dark Knight Rises yesterday. Twice. In two different theaters. Because it's that awesome. One of the best movies ever (at least of the movies I've seen, anyway). -TNTOS-
Just got back from church camp an hour ago or so. It was really fun (although I heavily disagreed with the theology being taught, but that's crossing into religion so I won't say any more). Got to see some old friends and make some new ones. I'm really tired, though, because they kept us busy with games and stuff. Anyway, expect the TLE side story to be posted sometime tomorrow. Figure I should get it done as soon as possible rather than putting it off like I've currently been doing. Hopefully
As of today (should have been yesterday, but oh well), I have posted all 19 chapters of my most recent comedy, BIONICLE: The Legend Exploded. There will be a side story posted later, but the comedy is basically finished. Of course, the Legend Trilogy isn't complete yet. There is still the next comedy in the Trilogy, The Legend Imploded, which as I stated in TLE's topic will probably come sometime in late 2012 or early 2013, depending on how things go. Here's a few things to expect from The Leg
'Sup, everybody! Just wanted y'all to know that I have, as of today, entered the Library Summer Olympics. You can read my entry, Dimension Cookies, here. Yes, it is based on Dimension Hoppers and yes, I did try to write Isarot's POV similar to how he was in DiH, but whether I succeed or not depends on what y'all think. IMO I'm not too happy with it, but go and see it for yourself to come up with your own opinion. -TNTOS-
Please stop starting stories, posting a few chapters, and then quitting and starting a brand new story that will inevitably go down the same path as your last. This is not an attack on or criticism of inexperienced writers. It's merely a gentle reminder that giving up on your current story won't make you a better writer or make you more popular. Your story isn't completely unsalvagable and you'll learn far more about your abilities as a writer if you stick with your story to the very end than
As a writer, I'm always seeking to improve. I try to make each story I write better than the last. Sometimes I get lazy, unfortunately, but overall I seek to become the best writer I possibly can, which means doing my best at every level and listening to the criticisms that readers give me. However, being a good writer also means recognizing one's limits. It means knowing what one can and cannot write at their current level and a good sense of when to try something new, something you never tho
So I decided to enter the new Short Stories contest, Warm Up. Thought it was worth mentioning, 'cause I wasn't sure I was going to enter it at first (didn't think I'd have the time or inspiration). My entry does take place in the Shikaverse, for anyone interested. It basically expands upon Kafor's vision of the future that she mentioned at the end of The Other Tale. That's it, really. Not much else I can do with a story that has to be between 400 and 600 words, although it was pretty fun to wr
I just posted the twelfth and final installment in the Glatorian Chronicles series, called The Future Begins Where the Past Ends. Read it here. Right now, I'm kind of in a state of shock. To think that I actually went ahead and wrote and posted all twelve GC stories is just . . . unbelievable. I'm glad I did it, mind you, but . . . just wow. I'm just very happy and excited right now. Also, I posted a new chapter of TLE today, for anyone who is interested. -TNTOS-
I finished watching the entire series of Avatar: The Last Airbender recently. And, because Netflix has it, I decided to check out the live-action movie adaptation, called The Last Airbender. I'm now going to pretend the movie doesn't exist. -TNTOS-
Hey, I know I said I'd do in-depth reviews of the cartoons G. I. Joe Renegedes, Transformers Prime, and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, but I realized just how unrealistic a goal that was. It might be something I do later, but for now don't expect any in-depth reviews any time soon. Instead, I'll post some quick thoughts on each series. Please note that I am going to talk only about the first seasons of each series, for those are the only ones I have seen in their entirety. So here we g
