Gosh, its quiet.

Well I'm here.

And for once, having just about finished whatever it was I was supposed to be writing, (and it's not awful ... it's not too awful, anyway) I am now chilling in my crib

Ok, that seems too boring.

The other thing I did today was that I hired a goat from the appropriate agency, and failed to make a mask of the beasts skin. I did not, suitably covered in gore, go to a shopping centre and start blasting. Instead, me and the goat (the goat existing perhaps only in a notional sense) drank gin and played GTA. SA. Word.

For shizzle.

It may not be late but I am shifting. Anyone about?

Hey there. I'm playing Final Fantasy VII. It's so eleven years ago I'm gonna die.

I'm so not writing my Screenplay that I'm going to die!

We're all going to die, but not all of us may die doing a wheelie.

FF7 is the business but, yes, just a little dated. To think I was only 12 when I first stepped foot in Midgar.

What's your screenplay about?

I'm currently pissing about online (watching episodes of QI mainly) and trying not to think about drinks later with someone I quite like.

Currently? Not a shitting clue, to be honest Trips. I've been trying to salvage a stinker of a plot for about a month now, and the deadline is approaching (Noon Tuesday) and I haven't written a word of the actual script. I'm wracking my brains trying to come up with another story to force the characters into.

I can't scrap everything, because we've been building up a portfolio for the course, and some continuity is required through the development stuff.

Hello there.

Will someone please force me to do my laundry?

Evening kids!

Liger Null, do your laundry. No-one likes a stinky ficsuit.

What does QI actually stand for (from the show (hello, by the way))
 
 
Liger Null
23:56 / 13.01.08
Thanks Ubermouse.

Just put my clothes in the dryer.

Hey Benny!

Quite Interesting, I believe.

This hot fuzz film, it's quite entertaining ain' it...

So there's this THANG:

Apparently, I'm an 'innovative young' writer; I 'say things most Southern refuse to'. But again, I get the rejection letters. So...hell.....

I won't give up. I won't give in.

I'll just light the cigarette I don't believe in.

Yes.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy

Heartburn is bad.

Ice cream is good.

Rejection letters are character-building, Kali-cakes. I've got a few.

And I've got a story I need to rework from the first scene onward. Which shouldn't be so bad.
 
 
Liger Null
02:32 / 14.01.08
I've got an idea, Kali, you should start a rejection letter collection. Get yourself a file folder and set a goal for yourself, such as: I'll get seven rejection letters in seven weeks. In other words, make the rejection letter a happy thing to look forward to. As I understand it, the key is to keep writing and getting stuff out there.

Of course this is coming from somebody who never got a rejection letter in my life. But that's just because I've never submitted anything.

Those comments sound promising, by the way.

So I wrote this whole bit--and I'll admit I felt a little Neil, though he's hated--and the computer ate it.

It was good, though.

There were funny bits....because I laffed.
 
 
Liger Null
02:37 / 14.01.08
I don't hate Neil. And I don't understand why everybody else does.
 
 
Liger Null
02:39 / 14.01.08

Can you get the computer to cough it back up?

Or will you have to follow it around for a couple of days?
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
02:41 / 14.01.08
Liger, can I send you my last semi-"failed" story? Let me know what you think, please?
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
02:42 / 14.01.08
I like Neil in small doses. I actually really enjoyed that "Midnight Days" collection of old Swamp Thing stories he did. "Smoke & Mirrors" was a good story collection as well. But I can only read so much before it gets a bit repetitive. But you can say that about any writer, really.
 
 
Liger Null
02:43 / 14.01.08
Liger, can I send you my last semi-"failed" story? Let me know what you think, please?

Sure.

Everybody keeps sending me stories. It's like Christmas all over again.
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
02:47 / 14.01.08
Well, it'll take me moments.
 
 
Liger Null
02:48 / 14.01.08
I really liked Anansi Boys, even more so than American Gods which seemed kind of slow and convoluted to me. I also really love the Children's books he did with Dave McKean.
 
 
Kali, Queen of Kitteh
02:50 / 14.01.08
Remail me your personal email here and I will figure out how to send it to you. I just need to know if you (and well, most of 'Lith) if it's awright.

Graveyard Book is pretty ace. Did anyone hear the shortshort scary bit back in October for NBR? Chills. I don't care what YOU say. Thats some sweet unnerving shite.

Look at your dog the same way again.
 
 
Liger Null
02:58 / 14.01.08
Graveyard Book sounds like something I'll definitely have to check out.

Did you get my PM? I was having technical difficulties.

Which is usually a sign of tiredness.

Laptop before sleep. Neil has me on this. Hate as we do but he and Lorraine small things and I agree. I said the correct thing. Geaux yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta stop doing this. This last-minute creating of important documents before the deadliest of deadlines is seriously unhealthy.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
05:23 / 15.01.08
It was a productive evening in the sense that I wrote 1500 words, but I'm not sure I like them and I feel like the story keeps dead-ending on me. How is the rest of the Lith? I've retreated into sci-fi gladiator comics to sooth my brain.

Things are good. I've spent the last two days doing nothing but art and drinking... (ok, in truth the drinking portion has been going on for more than 2 days) but its been very nice to get back to my art.

And you
