Some 90 days ago, I posted my previous post here. Some 90 days ago, I also started working seriously on my Bachelor’s project in Computer Science – which seemed to drain whatever leftover creativity and willingness to write anything in the creative end of the line. Now, however, the project has been handed in, and [...]
Now that the second iteration of Blizzard’s Creative Writing Contest has finally subdued, it’s time I revealed my piece. I didn’t win this time either, but that’s not stopping me. No reason to give up just because of that – I still think I’ve achieved something, and have evolved as a writer. For those of [...]
Or simply “yeah, I kinda expected that”. I did actually plan to see if I could iron out the last few details of Thunderstruck during this previous week, and see how it all held together. Seems it looked okay for the most thing, but something was indeed rather off, and I couldn’t quite put a [...]
With Blizzard’s Writing Contest of the year coming to an end soon, I figured it might be time to take a look and figure out a submission for this year. Last time, I stayed within the familiarity of the Warcraft Universe, with the story “A Change of Ways“. The advantages was that it has a [...]
To no further surprise, I won’t have Thunderstruck ready for this expansion, seeing as it would only serve for “that long”, before I’d have to re-iterate all of it, to match up with the Cataclysm changes and additions. However, it seems like the coming changes are only going to make it all easier – which [...]
Whenever I get a new idea for my story-project (Fate), the thought about when I should start writing the actual story comes to mind. When will I have enough “content” to really start the project, without getting to a point where I can’t get any further (that isn’t the actual end of the story)?
It’s been a while since I’ve posted about the updates of any of my Elemental Shaman-project for World of Warcraft; the PHP-based damage calculator Thunderstruck (heck, even posting anything WoW related, in fact). While I’ve been in Mexico, I had some time to get some ideas written down, some pseudo-code written both in the real [...]
Surprise, surprise – flying is utterly boring after all. Eating, drinking and browsing through the entertainment system has helped so far, but for now I’m left with listening to music (Röyksopp is easy on the ears) and staring ahead (obviously I’m not now, as I’m writing), indirectly trying to drift into my creative state of [...]
Not too long ago, after finding out that I seemingly wasn’t allowed to “publish” my work for the Blizzard Global Writing Contest, the news were updated to reflect that it was actually “legal” to post them. And yes, I was extremely slow noticing this, but the time was rather critical: on top of my birthday, [...]
Around a month ago, I decided to enter Blizzard’s Writing Contest, with the hope of … well, except winning it, also honing my writing skills and actually drop myself a deadline to follow. I succeeded in getting to a result I thought was good, and submitted it, awaiting the outcome… and finally, a few days [...]
