I've returned, sorta

I don't know how it happened but I found myself with less and less time on my hands to do any writing, let alone update these blogs. I'm posting this entry to let everyone know that I haven't completely dissappeared even though it has been many, many, many (you get the idea) months since I last posted anything.

I'm going to do my best to continue with Pure Chance; my goal is to have it finished soon so I can start writing a fresh new story. I don't know what it will be about yet, but I'll know when it comes to me.

That's it for now.

Blog Review

So I'm slowly building my blog roll, very, vey slowly mind you and I have a new one to add: Szymon Niemiec. Szymon is a 28 year old LGBT (that's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender for those of you who don't know - as if you didn't! Shame!) activist and photographer. He was also one of the first openly gay Polish person. I never realised that homosexuality was so repressed in Poland, but hey, with people like Szymon fighting for gay rights, the world will become a better place.

My sister is actually married to a Polish guy and they have two adorable boys, so I find it interesting to hear about Polish current affairs.

Check his blog, enlighten yourself on what happens in other areas of the world, expand your horizons people!

I also think Szymon is a cutie, I mean he's really hot! Ok, maybe I need a cold shower.

Sorry everyone

I know I haven't posted any updates yet, let alone a blog entry, but I do have a good excuse (phew...otherwise that would make me just plain slack). So here's what's been happening to me; I went back to studies at the start of July after a two week break, and then I landed myself a job! Recently I've been either studying or working, leaving myself without much of a social life, let alone any time for writing.

I have the next chapter of Pure Chance ready and should have it up by the end of this weekend (that's Australian EST). Didn't mean to worry anyone - especially Antifreeze; you can call off the search and rescue mate!

Chapter Seven of 'Pure Chance' is now up!

I've posted Chapter Seven of Pure Chance like I said I would. If I could I would write faster but as it stands, writing doesn't pay the bills for me and it's mainly a hobby for which I'm trying to hone the skills of. Also it takes me some time to edit each chapter as I take the time to go over it and tweak it. What I do is try and ensure the story maintains a flow that is easy to read. Consequently I'm always editing my stories, even months after I've written it (but don't worry, they're usually just word or sentence changes here and there - not drastic plot changes). So you can see that writing isn't as easy as it seems to be.

Enjoy the update. You know where it is.

Ciao.

A bit about me

I've been sitting in front of the compy thinking of something to write before it occured to me that I haven't written much about myself. Actually there isn't much about me at all! My profile page does a dismal job of describing who I am, despite the fact I tried to update it a while ago.

About me. Hmmmm. Now my mind's gone blank. Am I really that boring? Nah, I hope not anyway. Well, to start with I like to think that I'm a caring and considerate person. I'm the kind of guy who'll try and make you as comfortable as I can if you come over to visit. I try not to step on anyone's toes, I consider peoples feelings and think about what I say before I do (generally - I try to). I'll actively listen to what people say and try to help where I can, I'll even go out of my way to help someone if it's within my power. But don't go thinking "he's a nice guy", because I'll admit that I find it annoying when people say that. Not that I'm not. Nice that is. Although I will say what's on my mind if I think someone needs to be straightened out. That's the thing about me, I'll tell it how it is, and I won't be afraid to do it. I guess you could say I'm assertive. I can be passionate about something and I'll let the whole world know too. I always have a smile to give, even if I'm feeling down inside.

But that's only a little bit a about me. A while ago I was trying to write a list of 100 things about me to post (got the idea from other blogs I read, can't remember which) but didn't quite finish it. It wasn't because I couldn't think of 100 things about me! No, I just forgot about it and let it go. Really, I did! So I went over it and thought I'd list the best ones, it's a really short list of a few things about me and what I believe. Here it is:

Some things about me and what I believe . . .

- I'm a romantic.

- I believe my soulmate has yet to meet me.

- Beautiful sunsets are worth watching.

- I have a tattoo on my left arm I designed myself.

- Sunrises are worth getting up early for.

- I love the rain.

- I drink too much sometimes.

- I won't judge a person, not for any reason.

- I will make observations though.

- I'm loyal to my friends

- Honesty sometimes gets me into trouble.

- I believe you are a radiant being.

- My favourite colour is blue.

- I try to see things from as many angles as possible.

- I love music.

- I don't believe in getting angry.

- I know you have the potential to be more than you ever imagined.

- Jealousy is an emotion I left behind with my childhood.

- We are the masters of our own reality.

- I love the beach.

- Where attention goes, energy flows.

- I am too trusting.

- I believe life is a journey . . . live it.

- I sing when no one is listening.

I was also doing some of those silly online things that test your personality and whatnot after getting the idea from Antifreeze's personal blog Wasteland, and decided to show my results.

Apparently this is the type of weather I am:

You Are a Rainbow

Breathtaking and rare
You are totally enchanting and intriguing
But you usually don't stick around long!

You are best known for: your beauty

Your dominant state: seducing


And this is my personality profile:

Your Personality Profile

You are dreamy, peaceful, and young at heart.
Optimistic and caring, you tend to see the best in people.
You tend to be always smiling - and making others smile.

You are shy and intelligent... and a very hard worker.
You're also funny, but many people don't see your funny side.
Your subtle dry humor leaves your close friends in stitches.


And this is my hidden talent:



Your Hidden Talent



You have the power to persuade and influence others.

You're the type of person who can turn a whole room around.

The potential for great leadership is there, as long as you don't abuse it.

Always remember, you have a lot more power over people than you might think!



Is any of it true though? Only my friends could tell you that. It is flattering stuff.

That's enough from me for now, I should have an update for Pure Chance very soon.

Till then, keep smiling.

Chapter Six of 'Pure Chance' is now up!

Yes, yes, please contain your excitement. I know I'm just literally bursting with delight to bring my latest chapter to my dedicated readers (and others, whoever you may be). Okay, so I'm being a sarcastic smartass. But just a bit, there really is some sense of satisfaction to be had when all is done and posted.

Anyway. Chapter Six. Pure Chance. You know where to find it.

Peace.
