"If you want to make trouble, go work for Parker Brothers!"

Have I mentioned how much I love the show Community? If, for some reason, I haven't, let me just put that on the record.

Granted, if you had talked to me last season, I wasn't watching it. Because NBC, in their wisdom, decided to fire the show creator, Dan Harmon. After a season that didn't do too well - with not only the critics and the fans panning it, but also the ACTUAL WRITERS, they decided to bring him back. And oddly enough, the show is good again!!

It's amazing the difference a talented writer can make on a project. Well, OK, it's not that amazing. It's pretty self-explanatory. But it's amazing how many people think it's something you can just plug in with someone else!

But nothing beats the original vision of the right show creator! *cough* see the last season of West Wing for details *cough*

For those following the "when will Idol start?" graph, we edged right up to the edge of the halfway mark!!

I figure that I will be releasing the FAQs when we hit 2/3! Not sure what I'll do for 1/2. I kind of want to put the new look up, but yeah, you are going to have to wait for that! :D

Cool.

Cool cool cool.


Just writing my story to enter in Fey Publishing's anothology, 'Pets are People, Too.' Jan 31st cutoff, in case anyone's interested. If you get your skates on, you can finish the story before Idol starts!

Also, I couldn't even finish the last Season of West Wing, for that very reason.

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I started it - wanting to give the new guys a fair chance. It was just awful.

Seriously, am I the only person in the Green Room right now? Or Lobby, whatever. No wonder it's draughty.

Went to join the library today. I love libraries! I love them better when I don't have my pesky children with me, though. Think I'll make a solo trip next time so I can actually look for books I want to borrow, rather than gathering random ones I think my offspring will like, while protecting the other patrons from said offspring.

I am up because I am in pain.

but I am so ready to sleep.

To be fair, I didn't actually see this till I visited the LJ Idol page just now. Because I'm slacking on LJ. LOL.

I should be hanging out here with my new alias, but I'm lazy there, too.

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

Oh, me too. Although I'm planning to play with both this one and bringing_words, because I have SO MUCH time on my hands.

I posted to that journal for the first time in months and I had 272 messages waiting for me. Two of them were actual messages, the rest were birthdays, etc. Ha.

Morning GR! I'll hafta look into the deets re the anthology.
I'm doing my own book promo when I can, just finished reading two books, one being Orange is the New Black. The other is September's Child, written by a writer colleague of mine about her adoption/ subsequent child abuse and neglect experiences. It's kinda sad and also needs a bit of editing. ( She should have checked better before going off and pubbing. ). Anyway I need to give her a decent review because she needs help, and I said I'd read and post something for her. It's fast-paced and shows her resilience well. I'll figure out how to say it for the Amazon entry.
I tutor and work at Curves all weekend.

How was Orange is the New Black? I devoured the show and have been considering picking up the book.

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

The show was great. I want to read the book now. (well, OK, I want to see Season 2 now, but I also want to read the book!)

[kandigurl.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, I know. :) When I watched the last episode the first time, I didn't realize it was the LAST one, I thought there was one more, and Netflix did the whole "You might want to watch one of these other subpar pieces of crap next" and I was like, "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT, THAT'S IT?????"

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I knew that it was the last one. I just forgot how long I'd have to wait until I got any new episodes. Fortunately, once I do, I'll get A LOT of them at once!

[adoptedwriter.livejournal.com]

It's a great book. A Fast read. I was bummed out when I finished, it was that good. AW

[adoptedwriter.livejournal.com]

I loved the book! It's chick-lit and not all in one. AW

I decided on a whim yesterday that I want to do FAWM this year, even though I suck at making music (that's actually largely why) and now I'm seeing visions of having to do both FAWM and LJI SIMULTANEOUSLY. I will....explode? We'll see. Maybe I can combine the two.

so... if anyone is on the fence about playing in the next season

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

or might be waffling about it, or hemming and hawing, and wondering if donating is worth it?

I happen to know a certain someone who has never played before, who has in the past loudly and frequently spoken of an extreme hate for all things LJI related (including you know who)... and who has said, yeah, ok, might write until it gets boring.

DAMN IT FOLKS! QUICK BEFORE MINDS ARE CHANGED!
