First off, it looks like I have to re-write the second installment of The Rotting Man and give them proper names. I'm getting a fucking headache just trying to figure out who's who without a name.
Take that as a lesson, boys and gals. Never write a series without giving them proper names and personalities or you're going to get one hell of a headache. Only do the nameless character thing when it's a one-off story. It'll take a while since I'm traveling back today, but I'll try and get it done as soon as possible. I'm also really tired for some reason, but I'll try my best.
Secondly, I might start a new tumblr account dedicated for my writing. Otherwise, people will have to sift through my posts about bands, music, cartoons, politics, posts about anxiety and depression just to read my stuff. So, I might just start a new oneand hope some well known author or publisher will notice my talent and I'll soon be rich and famous, so watch this space.
Also, due to recent family events, I decided to take two steps back and come up with a list of stuff to do before I turn thirty, since I'm only 23, so I should seize the opportunity while I'm ahead. Maybe write a proper book and get it published, learn how to make android applications, dye my hair green, whatever I think I should do.
So yeah, that's it for now.

Wow
Has it really been that long since my last journal entry?
I'm really sorry, guys. I've just been busy and I haven't been writing as much as I used to.
First things first, I had just finished my internship, did the necessary paperwork, signed my reports, yadda yadda yadda.
And now I'm job-hunting. You know, polishing up my resume, lying about how intelligent I am, attending interviews, that sort of thing. In fact I had two interviews yesterday. One was an interview at HP's offices, and another was a call-in interview, and they said they will call me again today to conclude it. (They've called me twice yesterday, one for oral, one for techni
So....
Sorry I haven't been around for months. Really, months. I just realized recently. I guess it's due to the fact that I have writers' block, which means I have no stories to write about, which also means I don't really have much of a good reason to visit dA, since I have no stories to publish and the feedback I can receive for them.
Anyway, another reason I haven't been around is I'm in the middle of an internship program, so I'm kind of distracted with work most of the time.
And another, and more important reason, is I got one of my stories published for real. How did this begin, you ask? Well, you see, my friend (who's a slam poet) shared a
Devious Journal Entry
Rules:
1. Answer the questions.
2. Tag at least two people.
3. Have fun, and make the answers as short or as long as you like!
1. When did you discover you enjoyed writing?
When I was in school, I guess. English class was sort of a stress relief for me, since I get to read and write in class. It wasn't until I decided to start writing for myself, rather than for class, that I truly realized how fun it was.
2. What are your strengths in writing?
Hm. I guess my strengths include the ability to think out of the box when it comes to new stories, and coming up with slightly different ideas for my stories. And I'm good in writing dialogue.
Another update
Well, I guess I should update a bit.
First off, I guess I'm done with school. Woo-hoo and what not. I'm still waiting on my practical, and I've celebrated Eid.
Um...I guess that's about it. Nothing much going on with me right now, just reading Odd Thomas (I'm on the third book now) and trying to come up with story ideas, so I'm afraid there won't be any new stories for the time being. *sigh* I also celebrated my niece's birthday last Wednesday, played Watch Dogs, boy was that a shit game that frustrated me to the end of the earth.
So...um. I guess that's it now for now.

It always easier if you create the characters and develop them before trying to write a story with them. Trust me; I've made the same mistake at least a hundred times. lol Good luck with your story, though!
