misskorya: Found on Good ST Icons Live Journal (Katherine Janeway)
 Sorry about the long MIA. I've been working on getting my stuff done for the Texas Workforce Commission. Life has been busy since the last time I've posted. I'm mostly excited about getting my life back. Simming with my Star Trek team, and being an active member of the contributing society. The background check for this Port San Antonio job came back good, and I went down to the local college and got some paperwork out of the way. Super excited about the farmer's market this weekend. Also really excited about this past week's episode of Arrow.

I love this series. I totally see this like Macbeth meets Hamlet in a way, and I love it. I love every minute of it and I can't wait for more DEATHSTROKE! Which you know we'll see him again, and I hope we get some more comic book characters thrown in. Specifically maybe STEEL before he's STEEL, I can see him working with the Sciences of Queen Industrial. I'm very glad that this show happened, and it's as good as it is, I hope Amazon is this damn good.

So again simming that's just basic play by forum role play but it's fun to get the band back together and have a go at playing again.

I know this isn't much but I wanted to keep you guys up to date.

 Standing in a row...

Anyway,

I've been kind of catching up at the Library and apparently have dozed off on the fact that I have stuff on hold, eight of twenty-two to be exact. Nope, I don't go to the Library very often, no I don't.

Just a lot of Star Trek and one Doctor Strange but its Star Trek I - IV and the first season of TOS. That's really about it though. I won't be doing any novel writing this weekend, sadly. I need a break though my mind is mush I couldn't even muster up five hundred words yesterday. I also realized that I yet again wrote a chracter out of character? I mean this is the first time anyone will ever meet him and I've already established his way of talking and how he pretty much thinks so to go out of that, is kinda a real bummer.

So now I'm going to have to go back and read it, and rethink how to get his problem across without just duping him from the very get-go.

I know you're like WTF are you talking about. Trust me, just trust me, character voices are kinda tricky.

Read Kotaku's review on Wreck-it-Ralph, and okay fine the move doesn't go deep into "video gaming waters,' but uh, if it did it would probably loose the value of its story. Just understand that it's just there to tell the story that Disney, mind you, wants it to tell and is not going to cave into the muddled mess known as gamers.

C'mon you know we tend to whine and moan, and groan. So hey it's a great family flick that's all anyone's going to care about.

If I had the money, this would be mine. Just sayin' but hey I actually have not played ME3 yet. SHUT UP AND DON'T SAY SHIT!

I wanna play through with my FemShep and her curvavious Liara and then again as John Shepard who dumped Ashley for Miranda. I mean Ashley was kinda bitchy to me, so I was like you know what I'm gonna bone the woman who saved my ass. Then I played again going for the all too cute Quarian-Shep romance.

So yeah I know the ending apparently sucks but please don't ruin ME3 for me! I want to believe that I get a last chance at boning the respective hotties as my Shepards.

 I spent four hours on the bus today. Two going to my friends house and two coming back. The two hours in between were simply okay, I suppose. My son Luke disapproved of the stuff badger and gladly nom'd on stuffed penguins. He did this at my friend Kyle's house. Kyle was helping me with Subnetting. In regards to calculating hosts. 

IT HAD TO BE THE MOST IRRITATING AND PROBABLY MOST USELESS THING I WILL EVER NEED TO KNOW ABOUT NETWORKING!

With that said, I'm slowly wrapping my head around it. Slowly. I'm probably going to have to have someone shoot me some problem while I go back and look at the book. I'll be reading that part in particular tonight. I'm still working out on the math part but it still boggles my mind, completely. 

I just hope I Understand enough of it to pass my Network+ certification.  I'm now resetting my 30K goal and making it for this month of November and I estimate that my Star Trek novel won't be complete until say, December. I'm figuring it's going to be over 60K but not 90K. Once finished with it. I'll go back and run through it several times. 

More than likely whilst editing I'll probably start up on my next novel. Like I said I'm already playing around with titles for the second book. I plan a three book series per ship. So yes I will probably leave this crew out for a little bit and focus on another ship and come back to them. Then go to a different ship. This vessel will be the main one I write about. But I have other characters I like to show case.

Well. I say this now. But I'll probably just keep with this crew and introduce the other in a different manner. 

I think each book like an Episode. So I want twelve episodes, and the ending episode surrounds and ends with Hobus and the end of Romulus as it ended in Star Trek XI. I'm also looking into the for profit colleges but I need a college that will work with me regardless of my past and that will help me reach my goals. I'd love to attend a traditional university but it's not going to happen and the longer I sit on this the longer I prolong my dreams and goals. I'm just not going to do that. 

At any rate I need to get back to writing so I can get back to studying. 

Live Long and Prosper

Almost.

 When I started this whole writing thing. I told myself, I would challenge myself. I wasn't going to just start and then never finish. I wanted to finish. Not just finish, but make a goal my goal was 30,000 words in one month. Right now I sit at 25, 212. I won't hit 26K tonight. Tomorrow I most certainly have to hit 28K, in order to achieve 30K by the 31st. 

In this whole undertaking of writing. I've done character development, and of course moving the plot along. 

It's been as I've been writing, that I've started to really fall in love with certain characters. Their voices are starting to stand out more and more. 

I love these characters, and I can't see myself killing any of the main group off. Please remember I said main group.

I've been working on my Network+ and man that's taken up a lot of my time. I have chapter six in my Network+ book it's like forty-five pages over physical installation. Physical installation, the stuff I've already done. This, this has taken up so much of my writing time.

Time I could be using to write and to achieve my 30K word goal.

It's ass this goal has been sitting in my mind that I realized, this is not going to a 30K word novel. This is going to be more like 70K, in the time that it's taken me to get these characters to where I want them to be in the climax. Wow, yeah. This is not as short as I want it to be.

This isn't a bad thing mind you. I am super excited. Very excited and damn well proud of myself for achieving this thing. Hell I'm ready to start working on the back cover and prep up the front cover for the next novel! I always have to tell myself, calm down and just get this finished with. I am really looking forward to Halloween, not just because it's my son's first or that I'll be that much closer to Christmas or anything else other than. I really hope to have achieved this goal.

Proving so many things to myself, that I can do it.I can set it out there and do it. I mean, I knew I could mentally it's just the psychical part of sitting down and doing it.  

When it is all said and done, I will tell you all with much happiness.

So I'm almost there, in so many ways. I wanted to make one entry today. 

Now I'm off to bathe my son, and help him get off to bed, he had his second flu shot today so he's not so happy, and I have like another thirty pages of bookwork. I just wanted to get on write out another thousand words and if I have time tonight I may sneak back and try to hammer out another 1000 words or at least do a mad dash to 28K tomorrow. 

Let's pray the muses will be kind.
