Recap of why I have suddenly stopped posting as much...

Hey everyone, it's me... sorry if I haven't been as active for the last few weeks. I've been working my ass off at work and class. Just got through two mid-terms and a less-than-stellar 30-day review from my managers; more to say, I got drained and did a small private rant post to vent.

I'm only working one day next week and two the next, so I'll probably get back in the saddle and catch up with my subs (I haven't forogtten the one's I've subscribed to ) But hell, I'm bleepin tired

I have some posts a quarter done, but I'm just too worn out to try and put my brain to work. I'm also trying to get another neu short story done for another HBFF group for this month. I am still trying to get some things out of the way, but hell, I can sleep it off for a while

QTU: So what's been up with y'all?

Me... I've been blasting this on me ipod for the last few days - yeah I know it's already a week old, but I just caught some recaps of the neu South Park episodes on a night I wasn't working =/

My first published short story!

Entering a contest this year being hosted by Author MM, DPebooks and prizes being provided by Horrorfind, I was able to snag third place with my entry My Smile Stays Plastered (early/edited version of Disassembled Love with alternate ending) Here are some fotos of the goodies they sent me with a letter of thanks from the author who hosted this ordeal 

Awesome swag; got three books, two decks of cards series 1 styled by Horrorfind Weekend, as well as three t-shirts (two XL and one M) along with a mountain of business cards for their annual weekends - which I hope to attend one day

The shirts kick so much ass!!! (and I needed some more clothes anyway )

My entry My Smile Stays Plastered is currently available in the 2009 compilation of Author MM's ebook collection [links to 09 compilation and uncensored story at the end of this post] This also marks as my first officially published story. I probably would have gotten into one book a year earlier, but that project fell through - though I've seen some activity in the group trying to revive what's left, I'll end up reediting my first short story later for people to read

So I'm pretty happy, and now I can say I'm an amateur writer! *wails in the room like a mad man*

Neu/Re-edited horror short stories

I ended up procrastinating as usual, but I was able to reedit some of my latest short stories in time for the holiday. Sadly this is my only offering since Welcome To Tallen and Lifeless are currently in limbo due to all the work I've been piled upon from me job and class.

None the less, one story is actually neu and is the entry I submitted to two contests (which for one I sent a rough draft that was a censored shorter version) and the other is a repost if anyone remembers of an earlier horror story this year. I wouldn't mind some friendly feedback to point any more edits I need to implement to make them sheen with terror

WARNING: Some material in these works are recommended for 16+

Fresh from my WEbook collection:

Beneath It Swallows (reedited)


Disassembled Love

**Trivia: For the second tale, I decided to use GURO styled writing due to the fact it harkens back to how I originally wrote back when I was fifteen doing all those fanfics **

HAPPY DAY OF THE DEAD!!! (Feliz Día de los muertos)

 Halloween is over for another year, but last night's haul is pretty long lasting I didn't really get a big collection, but trick r'treatin in Monterey proved to be worthwhile. Compared to my area, all the stuff I got in the upper hills were great! Sure it's not much, but hell, a lot of good stuff out weighs the usual numbers of Snicker and Rees's cups I usually throw away to anyone who wants them (hate peanuts)

Looks small due to the foto, but when organized...

Currently I have like six different piles of sweets I organized. The candy not in a container (the very back) is stuff I'll give away. The stuff in the paper bag is what I'm gonna eat, stuff in the Grinch tin and red Tequila box is what I'll slowly dig into through the months, then the one in the small round Japanese cookie box is my special occasion stuff

To repeat myself, I did get some really good stuff this year. Going up Monterey, I got some pretzels, bags of Oreos and Cheetohs, as well as black Play-Doh

"never really saw black Play-Doh before, so it was pretty rad XD"

I also recieved free stuff over at the Tin Cannery; Ghiradeli I got some free caramel chocolate square samples, and in the candy shops, I got a wrist band with a lollipop (a take on those ringpops) It was also a good thing I got some granola, because I think I would've been sugar-poisoned throughout the night X_x

"Yeah, my hair got dried out from wearing a mask half the night"

So now it's DAY OF THE DEAD (also the title to one of me fav Romero films) and currently I'm fixing a bathroom and attacking my house with bleach with me dad. Have to go to work at 5pm today, but all in all, I don't mind - till later in the week

My halloween costume finally assembled

I decided to go standard this year and be a doctor for trick r'treat (and just in case bag happens to fill, TWO extra pockets ) I'm borrowing one of my parent's stethoscope to complete the costume due to the fact I don't have that headband with that big metal round thing; another reason why I could never follow my family's profession.

I was choosing between using the novelty Texas Chainsaw Massacre chainsaw or a big syringe, but I think the syringe was an obvious proper choice

I got my route planned out and I'm pretty much gonna hit my home area before heading into Monterey. I'll probably stop at Jose's by IMAX since my sister's boyfriend is playing in the underground club with his band. They said they'll be there till two a.m. so I could either just grab some nachos and hang with them for a bit then leave, or wait until their gig is over.

Hopefully I haul in a decent amount of sweets, I've been abscent from candy hording for a few years, and I am out to get them treats
