Flickr A venerable dragon, revered for centuries. Records of dragons stretch far back into the fogs of ancient history. Was there a lineage of proud drakes, or was there only the everlasting Frang Kaai, as he once claimed? So, the dragon MOC which I've had in various degrees of completion for over a month now is finished! And I think he turned out pretty well, and was an interesting build, as a more serpentine Asian-style dragon as opposed to my main previous dragon MOC, the Tyrannarahk, which is a Western-style dragon. In part the difference is because I currently think a proper dragon needs cloth/fabric wing membranes, unlike the Tyrannarahk (whose wings I've grown increasingly critical of), and I didn't have those on hand to use. They're also remarkably rare and expensive on BrickLink, especially the Black Pearl sails. Hence, a wingless serpent dragon! Speaking of pieces on hand, I also don't have much blue HF cladding at all, only really what Dragon Bolt had, so I had to make do in that regard as well. Lastly, if any of you are wondering about the name, it's partly a stealth reference, which his bio further hints at, so let's see if anyone can catch it. Comments are welcome! ~B~

Just kidding. I haven't shaved for over a week. -CF Speaking of November, I'm having a really hard time being motivated to start NaNoWriMo this year. I just have so much other stuff going on that I don't want to neglect by insisting I type on my computer for a few hours each day. That, or I don't have a story formed yet. If I did I'd probably want to jump right in. I was thinking of retrying one of two stories I've tried for the past two years, one steampunk and one sci-fi. And now I'm thinking I might just try both in one story! Maybe. *Sigh*

If you remember, I started growing a beard in February. After two weeks it looked like this. I didn't talk about it much after that. I think there are pictures of me at eight weeks, but those aren't too good. Then, at twelve and a half weeks, I had to remove it (or felt like it? It was getting unwieldy. I had stuff to do. It was fun while it lasted). It looked like this. (And like this.) And then, in all her awesomeness, Nukaya worked her magic: And presented us with Paul Benyan and his blue ox Babe. Beard: Feb 4-May 3, 2011. It was bittersweet returning to normal, but I think it's for the best...for now. -CF
