So....I'm gonna try and post everyday. I guess that means I'll have to make the effort to find something interesting to talk about.
I was looking through a list of scholarships I'm eligable for, and a really interesting one came up. You have to write a novelette or short story that's fantasy or horror or whatever, and it gets judged by a panel of writers; Kevin J. Anderson, Doug Beason, Gregory Benford, Algis Budrys, Orson Scott Card, Brian Herbert, Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Eric Kotani, Anne McCaffrey, Larry Niven, Frederik Pohl, Jerry Pournelle, Tim Powers, Robert Silverberg and K.D. Wentworth.
did you see the bold one? Yeah.
Yeah. Holy crap.
If I could whip up a novelette by April, I could have it read by THE Orson Scott Card. *dies*
I'm trying to decide what to write about. I have a few things already started that i could try to expand, but I'm having trouble choosing one. I could always take my "Fairy Odd Encounter" story and write more. I've been meaning to, anyways, but it seems a bit childish. I was also tossing around the idea of making a Biblical satire with the little cult that I helped create in which God is an Author. Considering it's a panel of authors, they might appreciate being likened to God...8)
So, that's what's up with me right now.

I love you.

Did you see that Anne McCaffrey is on that list too? You know who she is? She has writen more best sellers than Card has writen total. I'm am not saying that OS Card isn't a big deal, it is just that he isn't the only big deal on that list.
You totally should right up a yuri smut story for it! =P
'Kay, maybe not. But what about horror? I would think that would be fun to take a crack at.
And I saw Kevin J Anderson on that list, who wrote some pretty popular Star Wars books and some fantasy novels of which the titles elude me at this point. :D
