I almost forgot about that writing meme I was doing!! It’s definitely way more than the 30-day writing meme at this point haha. At least it gives me an excuse to write in my blog, because I have just about no motivation to write anything these days…

13. What’s your favorite culture to write, fictional or not?
Non-fictional culture would probably be modern-day United States, namely northeastern United States, with the sub-culture being Mary-Sue-like teens/young adults (if that counts). Yeah, not too exciting… I usually rely on my knowledge of that sort of culture to help get me through NaNoWriMo as quickly as possible!

I’ve been such a damn slacker! My job takes up most of my day, and then I go home and I’m either A. too busy to get on a computer or B. too tired/apathetic. I have a lot of ideas for blog entries but I’m not motivated to write them down heh. I wish I could get back some of my old motivation.

I think my motivation changes with the seasons. In the summer I really do tend to be pretty lazy. But in the fall I get hyped up–because school kicks back in, the weather changes and energizes me, and NaNoWriMo is right around the corner. So maybe once fall hits I’ll start feeling a little more energetic. I do get pretty excited as November comes around. I usually say that May is my favorite month, but I think November is starting to kick it out of the top spot. Who can beat the occasional snow flurry, Thanksgiving (best. holiday. EVER!), and a whole month dedicated to writing your ass off?! Not May, that’s for sure.

So anyway, maybe I’ll get on some of the blogging topics I’ve been meaning to rant/rave/write about. There’s definitely a few… I’ve just been a damn lazy bum.

I finally got around to uploading a few pictures from this summer so far! I put them in my gallery.

In other news, it is a beautiful day, nice and relaxing–I feel like I should sit outside and do some writing, or take some more random pictures of cats and butterflies :P Right now, though, to be totally honest, I really feel like taking a nap haha. This weekend will be pretty quiet for me: Andrew is camping with a friend, and not much else is going on. Next weekend, my family, my dad’s girlfriend and her kids, and our neighbors the Browns are all going camping. It’s going to be pretty great.
