What do you mean....

 I have to much free time on my hands ? 

All I did was connect three universes....


Edit/Update: 

Okay, so this blog entry was kinda short. And I had a small update, which is figured was too small for a separate entry of it's own. So I decided to kill two birds with one stone and glue it onto her. Anyway, here we go...

Chess Games In Cairo

So, this project was frozen solid for months. But last Sunday, I spent a day working on the story and finally managed to get some traction again. And today, I've done some basic plotting of scenes. So, tomorrow, I'm going work on turning that skeleton into an actual chunk of story. 

When that it is done, I'll still have to type said chunk into the computer file. (Call me old-fashioned, but I believe writing should be done with pen-and-paper first.) Anyway, forward motion ! Yay !

Starting the New Year....

 ....With Bits and Pieces

Happy New Year Everybody ! 

Hopefully, this year will see things slowly morphing back to normal. (Or close to normal.) 

Meanwhile, I've been backing some stuff up. You see, this is not my only blog. I have another blog where I have a back-up for my Stargate Universe fan-fiction story. Fanfiction.net is a great site, but servers can crash. And the blog allows me to post some notes that Fanfiction.net doesn't. The problem was that said blog was missing a chunk of the story. But now it's all caught up until the end.

On the new story front, the first chapter of Space 2029 - Earthbound is up. Space 2029 is a re-imaging of Space: 1999 in the vein of Ronald D. Moore's re-imaging of Battlestar Galactica. Which brings me to my next subject...namely, this....

If you scroll all the way to be bottom, you will see that Mr. Moore wanted to redo Space: 1999, but didn't know how to do it. As for me...

Well, I have an idea. (And a script that can be found at Fanfiction.net as Space 2029 - Breakaway.) But I'm not Ronald D. Moore, I have zero connections in Hollywood. I'm just a Dutch wannabee, who wrote two novels. But I figure that the worst that can happen, is that nothing happens. So I'm going to see if I can poke the bear.

Finally, things over at Star Trek: Pathfinder are looking up again. We ended up with 21 posts in December. We've had busier months, but I'm not complaining. Anyway, that's it for today.
