A bag of mixed fun

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

Loads to do this evening: a tasty dinner, finishing Necroscope II: Wamphyr! by Brian Lumley, starting Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, working on a bit more of Desert of Zin and the Vampire Story, looking up Space 1889 info (thanks for that The Other Big Al), thinking of old RPG projects and watching Cigarette Burns (the John Carpenter Masters of Horror episode).

A busy time indeed…

The Prisoner on ITV catchup

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

I realise I’ve covered the entire post in the title.

Oh well.

It seems that ITV are repeating The Prisoner after the passing of Patrick McGoohan and, if you don’t have the series yet on DVD (and if you don’t, shame on you), it’s on their online service which can he found here.

If you have never watched any episode of The Prisoner I would recommend it heartily.  I love it just as much as Classic Who.

High praise indeed…

NaNoWriMo 2008, T minus 5: Meetings

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Didn’t get the Deathwing Terminators finished.  :(

Did get housework done, some work on The Fracture and a few key upgrades to the site.  :)

So an overall success.

Got a meeting with fellow NaNoers tonight.  A pre-NaNo meet.  I’m quite excited.

And I bought the wife flowers today because of a top class image she’s done for the site (which isn’t up yet).

NaNoWriMo 2008, T minus 6: Names and Places

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

Six days left until NaNoWriMo.

I’ll share a bit of info on what this years NaNo will be.

Title: Planet of Snakes

Plot: Searching for info about his lost loved ones our intrepid crew visit a planet off the beaten track and find more then they bargain for:  Treachery, Loss and Giant Snakes!

Heh.  Giant snakes.  What the hell is going on here…  :)

So today I’ll not be working on NaNoWriMo plotting much at all.  There are a number of things I was to get cleared away before next Saturday arrives, as I may have mentioned in yesterday’s post.

I’ll be painting my two remaining Deathwing Terminators and once they’re out the way I can clear my desk of painting and miniatures, and hopefully keep it clear until December arrives.

After that, housework beckons and I’ll be working on the Fracture story I started ages ago.  There’s some work on the website required before the 1st, I don’t want to be thinking about any of it during November.

So a busy day ahead of me.  I’ll check in later to say how wisely I’ve spent my time.

Hello Cthulhu

Hello Cthulhu.

It is both helplessly cute and infinitely terrifying at the same time.
