First thing I have to say is that I'm sorry for not commenting and critiquing more often in the past week. My grandmother suffered an infection-based heart attack earlier this week and was committed to intensive care, so most of my time has been spent with my family and at the hospital. Right now she's doing okay, but her foot has suffered a bit of a snag and might need some serious work done to stave off amputation. It's gonna hold back my progress on both Beyond the Mist and Silverfell: Circus of Sin, but there's very little I can do to help the situation.

In more positive news, I've been working on a personal nerd project while sitting around in waiting rooms and in cars. If you didn't know, I'm one of the nerdiest individuals you might ever meet. Dungeons and Dragons? I'm a DM with over six campaigns under my +3 Belt of Levitation. World of Darkness? I have all the expansion books and three characters. Anime? I hate most of it, but I would marry most any character in Ghost of the Shell. This pet project has to do with the card game, Magic: The Gathering, of which I am an avid fan. I've played a lot of video games, but nothing matches the strategy of Magic, at least not that I've found. Anyway, I'm designing planeswalkers, which are the big bad boys of the game, to go with the decks I've built. It's nerdy, yes, but I'm hoping to commission art and cards done when I get the chance and the spare cash.

And yeah, it's hard to find good writers on deviantart, you are definitely one of them.

Shameless self-promotion is the cornerstone of humanity.

*NexusYuber Jul 18, 2009, 8:55:52 PM

It is. I have a horrible penchant for bad time management, so I hope I can get that under control.

It's easier when your life had a schedule, like.. School, for example. You have to be there more or less five days a week at such and such a time. I simply set my alarm earlier and use the extra time to write. I find it harder to write during the summer however.

Luckily (only sort of) for me, I'm taking summer classes so I can get my degree sooner. I get up at six in the morning EST and get back around ten, but that leaves me exhausted, and I usually fall asleep... pretty much as soon as I get out of the car. I'm also horrible at sitting still, so when I start writing it doesn't guarantee that I get anywhere.

Last summer, when I didn't take classes, I was in that same boat. I couldn't write for some reason. I wonder why that is.

My uncle preaches that someone with nothing to do rarely gets any work done, and I think he's right about that.
