The Mad Scratchings Of An Electronic Pen

I actually managed to do a little bit of creative writing the other day.

On Friday I was at work when two of the toddlers started having a growling conversation (it was super cute). The women who runs the day care said, "Can you just imagine that sound as the monster in a horror movie?" We started riffing off of that for a bit and she made that comment that her husband hadn't done a fun film project in a while, so we should totally try to get him to make a baby horror movie.

Over the weekend I wrote three one page scripts. Think of "Are You Afraid of the Dark?", more creepy then real horror.

No, I wasn't eaten by lions, I didn't run away to the circus, I just got super busy.

RL 1: I'm in the application stage to start midwifery training. Which would happen in Texas. Yes, I've been kind of freaking myself out over that, both with the OMG!Texas! and the YEY!Babies!

RL 2: I have two doula clients that I've taken on in the last month, one of whom is due on the 24th.

RL 3: re:rl 1, I'm going to need $1,000 by June 14th for enrollment fees, books and such, so I've been putting together a blog/web site to let people know what I'm doing and asking them for money.

There is still tinkering that needs to been done (the links page is nothing but dummy text right now) but you can check it out at: www.yankee-midwife.co.cc

FL 1: I signed up with the Remix/Redux, so I wrote my story for that, but I also filled a pitch hit as well. So two stories written in a week and a half, go me!

Look for an in depth post about that after the archive opens.

FL 2: I'm also taking part in the who_rumble icon challenge. So here are some icons from "The Next Doctor" (the first one was my entry for the challenge).
