So as it turns out, University ate me alive again.

Between assignments, classes, and sleep, I occasionally get a chance to eat or hang out with some pretty awesome peeps at KonJa (Japanese Club), WBN (LARP), and just a bunch of extra general stuff and activities. This experience of going to a university city where I actually know people beforehand has been wonerful. I can't stress that enough. I know some of you from my old uni might say that I had a great time there too, but it was still slow going. It took me almost two months to get to know people, and then I was gone again at the end of the semester, and I feel I didn't make the full connections there that I have here already. I digress, between everything that I've been doing, I've managed to pull out my laptop on the bus to and from school every day to get some mad writing done. I'm sure the people who see me every day must be wondering what I'm doing by now, XD (or they think I'm the crazy computer lady).

Anyways, the primary reason for this entry is to tell you that I'm going to be doing a 10k Kiriban. It's not going to be a fantastic prize, probably just a quick drawing of a random character from your gallery (one of your OCs), because I can't offer nice pieces right now with how much work I'm doing. (Also, because I've been trying to get 10k for NINE years! Some people have been on for six months and they have double that. My dA page is a little sad and neglected). XD

Additionally, you may have noticed, (for those of you that watch me regularly), that I have added a new gallery folder. "Witching Hour Saga," is my series of novels that I've been slowly working on for three years. I'm in final draft of book one, and once I'm done, I'll be querying an agent to see if I can get published. Until then, I'll be doing art of my characters. I would really like to put up little excerpts to got with them, like the character's best line so far, but I don't want to risk damaging any contract potentials I might have. I'll also keep you watchers updated on that front as well, because I know some of you love my literature. *smothers you all with hearts*

Also, if any of you have points that you're never going to use, I have a donation pool up to earn enough points to get the digital artist's backpack. My current bag is in terrible condition and it kills my back because it's a crappy 20$ walmart laptop messenger bag that's been pulling on my spine in an attempt to snap it in half. :V Such are the sacrifices of a poor university student. Points are loved and rewarded with llamas if you haven't gotten one form me already. If you have, I'll see about some other way to say thanks. :3

I wanted to add an ammendment to my journal. I created a plz account for NaNoWriMo because everyone else who created one made a crappy one or did nothing to it, thus using the names up so very selfishly. :V ~WRIMOplz is now available for anyone who wants to show that they are participating in NaNoWriMo www.nanowrimo.org  for any year here on in! Enjoy!
