Thanksgiving Craftiness: Knitted Pumpkins…with Pattern!

Whenever the weather turns a bit chilly, it’s time to reach for the yarn and knitting needles…and what better use to make of yarn than turning it into pumpkins??? :D

For reasons unknown (my thinker is a mystery even to me sometimes), it suddenly became a crucial part of my continued existence that I figure out how to knit a pumpkin that didn’t involve very much sewing at all…and definitely no…

I truly forgot how summer feels like. Near the coast it cools of during the evening, if it's not raining. So here I am sitting writing my novel as fast as I can before I melt into a million little puddles.

So this is how my morning started re: writing. I am happily typing away before I remember that the wedding is next week and they told us to bring a quote or advice or whatever and I start panicking. I can't give advice! I barely know how to sympathize with someone who is in love. So my challenge for this week is to find a great wedding quote or something like that.

If you have any please throw them my way!!

Back to writing, it's been a tough day as I realise I am immersing myself too much into the one character and I have to change a few things. 

Do you have a guiding principle?

(more…)

I may not always say the right things, and sometimes I might be wrong; but stick with me so you can see where I was getting my groove all along. I know we all have bad days that make us feel so all alone; we’re fighting wars, we’re people-poor - or so it…

Seeing that I am on leave soon and Wednesdays are half days I have decided to embrace my writing a bit more. 

But I've also decided to bring back - WoTD and a sketch or something...

We'll see how it goes later.

I am not usually keen on Thursdays. They are just little meh. I have made peace with that but sometimes Thursdays just bring me down. My friend Jon Savage usually has a radio show on the internet at 9pm (GMT +2). It depends on how busy his recording schedule is.

I am visiting friends this week and will have quite a lot of writing time which I am excited for.

Tomorrow night I will finally go watch Thor: The Dark World. You have no idea how excited I am. *insert overexcited gif here*

It just started but I can't write at the moment. The amount of fear coursing through my veins just makes me freeze up.

Yesterday I got home from a lovely weekend away, I really enjoyed it. But later that afternoon I found out that the criminals/thieves/robbers who are trying to get into our house cut the telephone wire - so we are without any internet at home. Next they'll try to trip the power and I am not prepared to be there for that

On Thursday I am visiting friends for 10 days - still going to work though. So I'll see how I feel during that period of time. 

I was so amped 15 days ago but by the time NaNo rolled in I have not felt the vibe. :/
