  Oops…

  12.03.06 | Permalink | Comments Off

  Fixed a silly bug in my NaNoWriMo graph creator; if you viewed it on a month that wasn’t November, it Went A Bit Wrong…

  YES!!!

  I appear to be the 3546th or so person to get my fifty thousand words this NaNoWriMo! It took me right up until midnight. I usually get my total in five minutes before (in case of network delays), but I discovered I was 25 words behind!!! I’ve never typed faster, I can tell you! It’s [...]

  A day of rest

  At least that’s my excuse. I did get my NaNoWriMo graph maker to cope with graphs that go over fifty thousand; it should also always return an image, even if it fails to get any NaNoWriMo data (before it supplied a text error message, which presumably would break anything that was expecting an image).

  Day 25 Part III

  11.26.06 | Permalink | 1 Comment

  Didn’t quite get the 4500 done today that The Plan dictated, but only 88 down is not bad. I didn’t quite get the distinct afternoon and evening sessions I wanted – I sort of dozed during part of the afternoon session and it all bled into one big long session (hence why no “Part II” [...]

  Day 25, part 1

  11.25.06 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  The plan – and I know that mentioning it in advance makes it unlikely to succeed – is to have three writing sessions today, and get 1500 words (at least) in each session. That should allow me to get a nice total and still have enough time to get some vital slacking and goofing about [...]

  The weekend starts here

  11.25.06 | Permalink | Comments Off

  Strange how things go. Okay, so I got home an hour earlier than usual because it’s Friday. And I’m feeling that little more cheerful ‘cos a) it’s Friday and b) I’ve got the next week off, meaning no going back to work for 10 days. But still, I basically had my two thousand words done [...]

  TV is distracting, film at eleven.

  11.24.06 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  On Thursdays there’s not much TV on that I’m interested in (that I can remember, probably tomorrow I’ll think of something that I’ll be devastated I missed), so I didn’t bother with it tonight. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, had my first good day in quite some time. Nice. Only one more day of work before my [...]

  What I need is an outline

  11.23.06 | Permalink | Comments Off

  I’m kind of stuck at the moment; it’s seeming fairly hard to get going. What I need to do is some outline work so I have at least some idea of what I’m writing next. Very much looking forward to the next week being off; if I get some outline work done over the weekend, [...]

  Half done day

  11.22.06 | Permalink | Comments Off

  My internals are still unhappy with me since yesterday; I don’t really know what I’ve done to annoy them. I’ve tried apologising, but it hasn’t helped. Plus I’m kind of blocked, creatively – not sure where I’m going or how to get there However, did actually get some words in, unlike yesterday. I do dislike [...]

  Unwell

  Well, my Week Three is going very well. Not Very Well tonight; really weird chills and upset stomach. Thus, no writing. Looks like my Week 1 plan of getting a buffer was a reasonably good one…

Musings of a Creative Slacker

"Creative Slacker" referrs to the fact that I should be doing creative stuff – writing, art, 3D animation, RPG stuff, but I don't. Maybe "lazy bastard" would be more appropriate.
