I managed to double mywordcoint from yesterday and I'm stil no done writing for the day!
I've been eyeing it, I have a little money in my Eshop account but probably not enough for the Pokemon titles. While I feel Nintendo has largely done a good job with their online service, the company is incredibly stingy about their titles going on sale or getting markdowns. I think I grabbed Link's Awakening due to the company celebrating Zelda's Anniversary a few years back.
Awesome. Saw a reminder of it on my fb today and thought you might be interested.
I may pick it up after I grab the Zelda Oracle games.
Oh, btw, apparently Nintendo rereleased the GBC versions of Pokemon Gold and Silver on the eshop for the 3DS, so you can grab that if you ever feel like it since your cartridge's batteries have run dry
I pretty much only have the opening paragraph and even that will most likely get scrapped. I do have a pretty solid grasp on what the story is going to be about, so if I actually do manage to get in the zone, churning out a story like this shouldn't be a problem in between writing chapters. And no need to rush with the piece. It might make little sense outside of context, but if anything about it intrigues you, feel free to ask. While the concept for book 1 is finally falling into place (though it'll still probably change a bit during edits), I still need to really workshop the stuff that happens in books 2 and 3. Though the story is continuous from book one to three, I really want each book to be really distinct in terms of tone and stakes.
Sure, I still need to read the piece you sent me earlier. I need to finish up my entry for the Halloween story contest as well, I'm about 3/4ths of the way done but I've already been getting in entries.
Don't do the lottery thing, trust me. This may go a bit personal, but my dad constantly plays the lottery and has been addicted to gambling for some time. And let me tell you, it's definitely a contributing factor to the financial ruin my parents have placed themselves in... But enough about grim adult stuff. I've written quite a lot yesterday and am leaving job earlier today and plan to write as much as I can. I am definitely going to try to force myself to keep at it. If I succeed, I think I should probably have the draft ready by the end of the year. Can I count on you as my beta reader then?
Ain't that the truth. Luckily, I got a bit of a lucky break in the department so I will be able to go back to saving money in my account instead of dipping into my savings. I need a better job is the real issue or win the lottery, but I never put much stock in that.
Yeah. Money stuff sucks. We currently need to order all our kitchen equipment because our furniture is going to be installed in less than three weeks. it's great that we'll finally have a kitchen, but was also need to put a lot of money into it. Just sent a big chunk of money to the kitchen guy and we have very little money left over, and we need to regularly pay him the rest in installments for five months (which was still awfully nice for him to agree to this, but we're kinda worried we won't manage). So we need to pray that we can also pay for the equipment in installments because we really don't have that kind of cash right now, and my parents have been dead broke for a long time now and cannot help us in the slightest. Oh, and we still don't know how high rent is, because the building is still beign set up, so we expect we'll get three months worth of rent to pay once that is established. So I totally know how you feel. Money stuff is very stressful and being an adult sucks.
