[Meteor Shower – Owl City]
3 new chapters published! I’d actually written Chapters 8 and 9 back in September/October, when I should have been writing my university essays. I wrote half of Chapter 10, but in the past few days I reworked most of it. I wanted to publish all three chapters in one go (and you’ll see why once you’ve read them).
I’m sorry about the delay though! Chapter 11 might be a while, or it might not be, if I get struck by inspiration tomorrow.

I actually don’t know what Jerusalem bells refer to in Viva la Vida, but it sounds celebratory.
I have uploaded Chapter 7 of my writing project.
I used To The Wolves as the title, because I had just listened to Anberlin’s yet-to-be-released album on their MySpace, and the chorus seemed fitting.
“To the wolves, you fed me to the wolves”.
Will get onto Chapter 8 straightaway, seeing as I finished my essays. I’m not one for spoilers, especially since I can’t be sure what I will write – I haven’t started on Chapter 8, though I have some ideas about what will happen.

[It Ends Tonight – The All American Rejects]
AH! Finally, Chapter 6 is up.
You can read it from the Writing Project tab up there ^^^^^ or alternatively click this link.
This chapter is more plot than anything special or fancy but at least the action is advancing.
I really need to stop introducing characters that I’ll “do more with later on”.
Alright, have fun!
Alex.
P.S. If you haven’t already, or if you have forgotten, the links to the first five chapters are all under the Writing Project page.
[How Far We’ve Come – Matchbox 20]
This is just a quick note to tell people who’re keeping up with the slow slow updates.
In Chapter 2 ‘It’s Only Natural’, Sera had explained that in order to drink from humans, consent is needed.
I had thought about it, and as much as I hate changing details that I, myself, created, I thought it was a) impractical and b) a bit dumb to have that. I have now changed it to the usual myth: that in order to gain entry into a property, consent is required from a permanent resident of the property. It still explains the good looks, but in a less limiting manner for further on.
I am currently writing. I went driving today but it’s not much to talk about.

[Decode – Paramore]
I think I’m wasted enough days sitting around doing nothing. I think I should definitely get some point back in my life! I never wake up early enough anymore, and it’s only partly because I stay up later. I think I should probably get the ‘in bed by midnight’ and ‘up by 10 by the latest’ thing going again. Except I want to get into the World Cup this time around – I have the time – so maybe…that won’t happen.
Either way, I need a reason to get up! I think, I will try to get a new chapter out by the time Jac finishes her last exam, and another one out by my birthday (that’s really pushing it haha).
Today, I updated my iPod again, and now I own every Glee song. Wee!
I think I should listen to Dani again, and get more new music from her, because I always trust her judgment.
There isn’t much I want to rant about these days. Is it because I’m not being stimulated enough – or I am being stimulated the same amount but I really don’t care about what is around me anymore? I think I want to care about what is around me – even if it isn’t politically.
I’m trying to be a good friend and not constantly calling or bugging someone trying to study. Although I really want to.

My Writing Project (which you can access right next to the 411 and home along the top-ish if the page) has had a huge drought, and finally after God knows how long, I’ve written and put up Chapter 5.
Am I satisfied with it? Not really. A lot of the stylistic features I tried to put in didn’t quite show up, but I have no idea how to edit it.
Did I see the ending of the chapter coming? Yes and no. There was always going to be a huge revelation. I just didn’t plan to put it in so early, or even that revelation for that matter. I won’t spoil it.
If you read my earlier chapters and forgot what it was about, then I suppose you’ll just have to read them again. I WOULD do a “previously on Untitled Writing Project” but nah.
I have a feeling Chapter 6 won’t take long. It’s almost like Chapters 3 and 4 coming out so quickly after one another.
I pretty much expect just Cheryl to read it, ha, but everyone else is welcome too.
Alex.
Sneaks, you better be bloody pleased!
Chapter 3 of my newly re-titled “Writing Project” is up. It’s no longer summer, so duh.
I’m pushing to get Chapter 4 out today as well, but that’s probably not going to happen. I want to actually write goot, not just fanfic crap.
I got heaps of hits yesterday because of the George Clooney thing. I felt bad because I wasn’t ACTUALLY writing about anything interesting, just what I did. But kudos to the people who shared their ideas! I loved the George Clooney sleeps with 500-600 male bees one.
I even got linked to this thing called Stumbleupon. And if you google “George Clooney GAT prank” my blog is the third.
Ah, attention from strangers, lovely.
To sum up, Chapter 3 is up. Yes, there might have been some influences from ITLOW…
