Another bout of Bad Writer

Bad Writer! Bad Writer!
Except this time it's for A Blue TARDIS at Red Sunset that I didn't write up a chapter for.
I'm considering doing an every other week set up for the stories. Angels of the Disc this week, A Blue TARDIS at Red Sunset next week.
That may or may not happen.
I also wrote a new story called And They Called Him Mad, which is a Master fic--Doctor Who realm. It's a format I have fun writing. Bit angsty, bit sad, bit hopeful. All jammed into about 600 words.
Angels of the Disc throws our characters back into danger, so I hope you go check that out!
The book I'm going to be reading for this next week is The Moonstone. I can't promise I'll have finished it (547 pages) but I'll give you a review of the point I'm at in the story.
I'm not writing as much original stuff as I hoped I would be, because we're not actually writing new stuff in my class right now.
Sorry.

Shellshocked Mood

As in I'm not quite sure my brain is working properly enough to really give a well written and coherent post, but it's Wednesday so I'll give it a try.
The reasons for this doubt about my abilities at this time will be listed here
1.) My english final today. 1 hour, Thirty minutes, 15 paragraphs and 7 pages. Three prompts. Honestly, I thought it went well.
2.) I actually had the two chapters(LONGEST ONES YET) finished Monday. Which hasn't been my MO lately.
3.) starting the one for my 1000 readers celebration. It's about a dog, a wombat, and two bunnies.
4.) MAIN REASON? The book for the next book commentary. It's called Looking for Alaska, and it is, in my opinion, one of the best books of this entire century. And maybe the one before and after. But more on that next time.
5.) Snow. So much snow. Mother nature hates me.

Right, on to the fanfiction. Angels of the Disc had the longer chapter by about 159 words. It's basically the spliting up of different groups, and Death is played with a bit more. Which is fun. Also, take the quiz on my page to help me out a bit.
However I'll admit that as plot developing goes A Blue TARDIS At Red Sunset had a better chapter! I got to play with the Slitheen Dictator and have a few fun lines. It's a pretty good chapter, and important to moving the plot along.
So check them out! Until next Wednesday!

Knew I forgot something else...

Another new look; except I like this one. I'm pretty certain I'll stick with it, too. I'm surprised I didn't run across this book one before, because it's really kind of PERFECT.
Any way, not much to report on the original writing front--I've been dabbling here and there with a few ideas, but the only two I see something concrete coming from is something like a Pride and Prejudice Fanfiction and ZOMBIES. I had this really odd dream that inspired it; it was really creepy, and involved my sister and brother becoming zombies that lived with me.
Odd, but good inspiration!
Okay, so for all of you who actually read the Fanfiction, I was a bad author this week, because A Blue TARDIS At Red Sunset didn't get a full chapter yesterday, just a teaser, which ended up being 513 words long. It starts with Amy teasing Grace about her reaction to the TARDIS and goes down hill from there, basically. However, I'm doing my best to have a full chapter up and replacing that one tonight!
Angels of the Disc has a friendship building chapter thown in now. Last chapter, the History Monks appear; I took the chance to establish the relationships of the characters through conversation. The two sidekicks(Rose and Soto) had a little chat, and Lu-Tze and the Doctor had a tiny conversation. I did advance the plot a bit at the end, using DEATH to impart news. DEATH is suddenly a plot point creator. I love Sir. Pratchett's work, but I feel that this might be a bit abusive to DEATH. So, take a chance to read it and post a review!
Okay, I decided I would read the Romance Novels. It's a series and I own two; the third one is out and the fourth should be out sometime soon.
I have to tell you, this is the title I'm considering for the next one;
Redirected Author Rant? Editor's Eye? Can't Believe I Actually Like Reading This?
