Words. Words. Words. Words. Words.
I am writing a lot more lately. It feels wonderful. I'm excited about NaNoWriMo. Giddy almost. Like a teenager before their first slumber party. I don't know why this year should be different from any other. Perhaps the larger number of friends participating in the madness too?
DRAWING
After a six month hiatus, I'm starting up Every Sad Story Needs Nuns again.
Right now I have a zombie movie marathon* going while I draw up strips in my sketch book.
This post would be a lot cooler if I included a sample drawing of what I'm working on.
But I don't have a scanner and don't want to hook up my Bamboo tablet to my netbook.
I want to get a flatbed scanner. Something that can scan pages larger than 8" x 11" without cutting of the edges.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
WHAT NOTS
It's cold**. I took advantage of the crisp weather and baked up a batch of vegan pumpkin muffins and bread loaves.
Came across some sketches I made of future crappy lil' charms. Looks like I know what I will be crafting this weekend.
In the line of Crochet Today magazine, is a new magazine called Knitting Today. I picked up the premiere issue, mostly because it contains a pattern for a hat similar to the one Schwartz wears in the film "A Christmas Story".
Schwartz, on the viewer's right, aka not the kid with his tongue stuck to the pole.
-------
*Also, I have decided a movie marathon is somewhere between four and six hours in length. Since that is the standard time range it takes an advanced to a beginner runner to run the distance of 26 miles.
**Cold in Florida is anything below 70F/21C. That's when we whip out the wool sweaters and parkas.
