Casual life update.

So, it's getting kind of difficult to write things twice a week on this blog because I seem to not be able to prepare them in advance. With yesterday being one of my last days of partay time before I start loads of assignment, today I thought I might just write some stuff on here that hardly anyone will find interesting :D

For a while now, I've been toying with the idea of buying a game or two to keep me occupied, such as Pokémon. I don't have the money to get a DS though, is the problem. But yesterday I played the Pokémon drinking game - and it's really fun. It does kinda screw you over though.

Recently I've been more laid back than normal, due to listening to excessive amounts of classical music. My favourite composer is Erik Satie. (youtube link.)

I've been working my way through lots of books. These books have both been thoroughly enjoyable and given me inspiration for my own writing. Patrick Rothfuss is one of my favourite fantasy writers after reading Name of the Wind, and he is on a par, in my books, with the God of character building - Ian Irvine.

But after reading Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island - I have been pushed forth to read more Penguin Classics. Which should be a lot of fun.

Most of my reading for the next two weeks, however, will be dull philosophy books, because I have 3 essays to get done. But... here comes the more exciting part for me...

After I've sorted out my real work - I'll be completely free for a good couple of months to start on my novel(la) which I've laid out the foundations for. I had my epiphany the other day, and my good friend is drawing up a map of my fantasy world as we speak. The story will be adapted from Of Deals and Undoings and it involves some character I'm really rather fond of.

It is a working title, but I have very high hopes that I might be able to get a significantly approvable version written up in a year. After that it'll be looking around for writing work to see if anyone might notice it.

I think this is one of the more boring blog posts you get. But there's not much I can do about that at the moment. More hilarity will ensue one day, I'm sure.

Thanks a plenty!
