The End is Nigh, Verily, It is Upon Us!

Posted on April 1, 2014 by A.L. Katherine

But seriously, I just handed in a project worth 60% of my grade last night. I have ONE MORE DAY of classes!! Then my first year of university is DONE! I only have 2 final exams! Evidently the last one being on the last possible day which is April 24th, BUT that just gives me plenty of time throughout April to work on my book and to study for the exam 😀 I’m so freaking stoked. You cannot even believe how excited I am! Not just to say I finished my first year of university, but also to say I passed and I survived and I get to spend all summer writing my book and making music with my brother. Ever since I took that first leap of faith I have been stressed out of my mind on certain levels, but on the scale of life I have felt mostly overjoyed! Obviously there are still really bumpy days, but the good things that have been happening have so been worth all the daily living crap.

I haven’t posted in awhile, so I guess this is mostly an update post. I’m in a good mood because I get to work on my book today and I get to play D&D tonight. I guess what I’m trying to say is expect a lot of this !!!!! because it’s just one of those good days. Really, any day I get to work on my book is a good day. In fact, this post is going to be short because I want to go finish the scene I started.


March highlights:

-Bachlorette Partybig

Maybe it wasn’t THAT crazy, but there WAS karaoke 😀

–St. Vincent concertNosebleedThis is the most accurate representation of how I felt. This is not a joke.

–End of Termalphonse-alphonse-elric-anime-books-brain-dead-edward-Favim.com-100183

But hey, I survived, right? I think?

Cheers!!!!

Back to school

Posted on January 6, 2014 by A.L. Katherine

My break is over, my brain is tired and I’m already wondering how I’m going to survive until the end of semester. Today is the longest day, my first class starts at 8:30am and my last class ends at 8:20pm, so that could also be why I feel like this after only the first day. This morning it felt like I was being forced out of hibernation, and I was much to comfortable in my cocoon. I can always tell when I’m feeling tired because I can’t write. I can sit and stare blankly at my computer screen for 30min and am surprised that all that time has passed.

On the bright side I have been making awesome headway in my book, which you will know if you’ve been following my twitter feed. I feel like I’ve just added a whole new arc of character development, and now I’m stuck trying to tie it back into everything. Hence, tired. I got a burst this morning for some added details in the end of the book that I’m pretty excited about, but I need to get this story moving again for that to happen. I have been good and written almost every day, even if it’s just a little bit, and I hope I can keep it up. My classes this semester will be a lot of work, so I might be less present, but I remain hopeful.

I am coming up to the one year mark since starting this novel. It would be exciting to finish it by then and have a big party! When this is all done I’m definitely having a big party 😛

I guess I’ve been busy

Posted on February 15, 2013 by A.L. Katherine

So my life has been mostly ignored since starting this book, and I think my blog has also been somewhat neglected. I try and post every few days but I’m starting to think of anything that takes me away from my book as a hinderance hahaha. To say I’m obsessed is probably an understatement. This week is the first in two weeks that I actually went out with some girlfriends and we went for Poutine! It wa sooooo good!! If you’ve never had Poutine you need to visit Canada for some. All that gravy and cheese curds on french fries is enough to make your mouth water. I added smoked meat to mine, it was like heaven. But it was tons of fun! I can’t even remember the last time I had a strictly girls night, no boys allowed, and we wandered around downtown for hours, went for coffee after the poutine and just chatted.

Everyone is starting to grow up, and its weird. Our one friend just got engaged, so we were busy chatting about wedding plans and dresses, I got to tell them about my book and I even mentioned my blog, but refused to tell them the name of it. I know its not googlable even if they search my name, I checked, so they would need the actual name of the blog, unless they had hours upon hours of time. But anyways, we also talked about reading, what books we were currently into, job hunting, since two of my friends are in the market after finishing school. Sometimes its just nice to catch up, and we decided to make our poutine nights a monthly gig, there are a lot of poutine places around here, so we are going to tackle them all 😀

I started Chapter 15 last night before bed. It seems weird to think its been just under 3 weeks and I have almost finished a book. I thought my husband was crazy when he showed me this website that is writing a book in a month, but I guess it can be done! Life is about to get busier once March hits so I want to at least finish book one by then. I’ve got enough notes to start book 2 at a later date. I hope all is well with my fellow bloggers in the writing world! Have a great weekend!
