Burn, candle, burn! [14 Feb 2005|08:37pm]
[ mood | amused ]
[ music | Wilder Napalm ]

You are a WECF--Wacky Emotional Constructive Follower. This makes you a Candle burning at both ends.

You work until you drop, and you play until you can stand to work again. You have so much enthusiasm that you can find it hard to control on your own, and you appreciate the guidance that channels your energy and lets you be your best.

In a relationship, you require lots of attention and support. You often over-contribute and end up feeling depleted and cheated. You may benefit from more time alone than you grant yourself.

Your driving force is the emotional support of others--especially affection. You can run on empty for miles if you have positive energy behind you. Without it--as it occasionally must run dry--you are depressive, listless, and difficult to motivate.

You need a lot of affection. Get it any way you can, but never at the cost of your self-respect or well-being.

Of the 96002 people who have taken this quiz since tracking began (8/17/2004), 7.5 % are this type.

to. You have no problems being naked.

picard wallpaper
You are Captain Picard!
One of Starfleet's living ledgends, you have saved
the Federation many times over. Your battle
experience has pioneered many strategies and
maneuvers that will prove to be valuable
tactics in many battles to come. Your crew
trusts you implicitly. However, you do have a
tendency to keep too much emotion bottled up
inside. You need to do Beverly Crusher in a bad
way. The thing most missing in your life, has
been right in front of your face for too many
years. Your distance from your crew has given
you the perspetive to make the tough decisions,
but at great cost to your own emotional well
being. If you open this side of yourself, you
will only enhance your love of humanity and
desire to protect it, not hinder it. Take
someone into your heart Jean Luc.

Lord of the rings
J.R.R. Tolkien: Lord of the Rings. You are
entertaining and imaginative, creating whole
new worlds around yourself. Well loved, you
have a whole league of imitators, none of which
is quite as profound as you are. Stories and
songs give a spark of joy in the middle of your
eternal battle with the forces of evil.

You Are From the Moon



You can vibe with the steady rhythms of the Moon.
You're in touch with your emotions and intuition.
You possess a great, unmatched imagination - and an infinite memory.
Ultra-sensitive, you feel at home anywhere (or with anyone).
A total healer, you light the way in the dark for many.

OS: Red-Eye Flight novel forthcoming [22 Nov 2004|03:59am]
[ mood | accomplished ]
[ music | U2 - Vertigo ]

Red-Eye Cover_small.png

Rather than go through the arduous process of shipping Red-Eye Flight off to agents or would-be publishers, which could take years, I've decided to use Cafepress.com to produce the book via print-on-demand technology.

So, once the first official OtherSpace novel is finished, I'll put it up for sale through Cafepress.com. Cost will depend on the size of the book (not huge, by most standards) and the type of binding.

Ideally, we'll have the book ready for sale well before Christmas.

Thanks much to Bahamut for the gorgeous cover design!

AN ALL NIGHT CAFFEINE JAG HAS ITS BENEFITS! [21 Nov 2004|09:22am]
[ mood | accomplished ]
[ music | John Lennon - Imagine ]

After pulling an all-day and an all-nighter, I've gone staggering past the 50,000-word minimum for National Novel Writing Month. All the currently finished segments are posted in the Imperial Circle forum at http://forums.jointhesaga.com

I've still got at least 5,000 words to go to *finish* the novel, however. "Red-Eye Flight" has seen a lot happening so far, and it's going to need some space to slow to a stop :D.

I'll get back to work on it after I reawaken from the coma that awaits me.

Intriguing... [16 Nov 2004|01:09pm]
[ mood | hopeful ]
[ music | Sarah McLachlan - "Fallen" ]

I'm expecting a phone interview with Blizzard for consideration as a World of Warcraft game master in Paris. While this would be an amazing opportunity, I'm trying to avoid getting my hopes totally out of whack.

On the upside, though, I've applied for positions at Blizzard before and didn't get so much as a response. At the very least, I hope that if the interview goes well, they might consider me for something stateside.

But the wife and I wouldn't mind living in Paris! :)
