I don't know why I looked for my final grades that semester- I had a good idea of how they'd shake out. I suppose I wanted to know how much my GPA was going to tank, manufacture some semblance of normal. In the stead of a grade was an incomplete and with it, no updated GPA. I wasn't prepared for the professor telling me the incomplete would remain until I took the written part of the final. I hadn't taken any of my finals and this class was the only one without a final grade for the … [Read more...]
What Shame Is There, If It’s You: A GISHWHES Story
I'll start with something that's an important reference - No Man is An Island. I say this because there's a chance there are new readers here. A quick summary of that series is that I stepped forward and talked about that last six years wrestling with Clinical Depression, getting out of its grip and essentially fighting everyday to never be back there again. It's work. It's frustrating and fatiguing- the constant inventory taking, the timeouts to talk myself down if I start to panic...but … [Read more...]

NaNoWriMo 07- Teaser
I don't have a title just yet, but I have two choices for one. I do have a teaser. And teaser's a fitting description to say the least. "Why do you call them..Starfish?" "Cut off a limb, it grows it back. The cut off limb? It can grow another starfish. Seems like no matter what you do, they don't stop" "Wouldn't something like..Hydra fit?" "Starfish are invertebrates. These people have no backbone" "I'm having instances of 'My logic is undeniable' in my head right now." Off the look he … [Read more...]
NaNoWriMo 07
It's that time again, and I've signed up for the challenge. I got my idea for my 50K 'novel' a couple months back. So we'll see how it goes. I'll be posting up excerpts [hopefully] at Anodyne. Anyone that’s participating and would like a place to post their work, feel free to get an account there. Anyone that would like to read at my 'novel' progresses, please get an account there as I'll only be posting excerpts on my blog. Since it seems blogging here doesn't want to play nice and show … [Read more...]
New Look for Anodyne
For any that have perused there now and then or have wanted to and just haven't, my writing archive has got a new look. Both of them actually, my RPG archive and Anodyne are sporting very similar looks. That's because the layout's smart, clean and in my opinion, easier to read. You can click to them here if you're too lazy to use the main page links or links at the top. Anodyne | Obsidian Accord's Archive … [Read more...]

NaNoWriMo 06
It's nearly that time again. As some of you might have noticed, I've already laid SDS out for November's National Novel Writing Month endeavor..where I will once again try and get my story outta my head and hope that it's 50K words long. I've been looking forward to this since my stress level is extremely high [it worries -even- me] and writing will be a good way to channel that into something and reduce it. In this capacity I am grateful that writing does that for me. In spare moments that … [Read more...]
