Nation

Sun Jun 28, 2009, 5:00 PM
I just finished Terry Pratchett's 'Nation', about twenty minute ago. I've been weeping slow and steady tears of joy for about twice that long. It was the most stunningly beautiful piece of writing I've ever had the outright honour to bear witness to.

So I treated my attack of Pratchett's majesty induced girly crying the way any sensible, sane, wannabeauthour Englishman would. I got my ass out of bed, went to make a cup of tea, then came on here and blogged about my new quest. It's epic, so hold your breath;

One day, I am going to be half the writer he is :D

  • Mood: Tearful

Sorry dude, been off the DA for a while. I used microsoft paint, I suppose. I have RPG Maker 2000, and one of the character avatar sets had a similar looking character on it. I took it to paint, snipped it, edited it, and then had the avatar.

But if you mean the Devious Information massive picture, I dunno, ttlyunpopular made if for me.
:iconkelmar-regane:
I was talking about the thing you made. And thanks.

We all find our way back into the fold eventually :P I keep running and coming back...to 1001 messages! :(

I dont know why I watch so many people, half of it I dont look at anymore and the lit I keep meaning to read just stacks up.

I'm fine though, new projects look interesting, hope you've got some light on the horizon? You good?
