Disappearing Act

Well, I expected to be able to handle my November better than I did, but many things kind of piled up, not the least of which was NaNoWriMo. However, I managed to pull through it all, and actually won!


"Winning" basically means I wrote 50,000+ words in November. I am not deluding myself, the "novel" I wrote was horrible, but, it's a good learning experience, and, just like exercising, I want to write more and more now.

Other than that, I have been doing a lot of volunteer work at Discovery World, in their new Design-It Lab.



This is very, very awesome, and I'll post when more of it is opened up, but right now, you can come in to the Quick Shop on the weekends, and create whatever projects are "on the menu" at that time. It's run like a diner, and really fun to be in. There are laser cutters, vacuum formers, rapid prototype machines, 3D printers and more! In the future, I think the goal is to open up the Work Shop area, where you can do longer projects, or (possibly) even just have some personal time with the equipment!

So, it's awesome, but killer work, because, whenever I'm there, it's basically 12 hours on my feet. Fun, but exhausting. And it's cut the time I have to do other stuffs, and I'm trying to get back into my sewing again, but it's hard. Not for the reasons I thought it would be, but it's more because I have too many ideas and I don't know where to start!

Anywho, that is what's up with me. I'll have some December specials coming up in my Etsy shop shortly, which I'll post here, on my Twitter, and anywhere else I can, for anyone who is interested!
