Hey..

Yea. I don’t really use this blog anymore, so therefore I now close the blog and keep it on archive so that it’s articles don’t get lost in the oblivion of the net.

I have moved over to my new and more true blog here: Various Random Stuff

That blog is about the true person behind my writing, eg. me.

That blog will still be active and it will be filled with, hopefully, more recent posts, plus it’s linked to my Facebook, Google Buzz and such accounts, so if you’ve gotten curious, I invite you to check out that blog..

Thanks again for those that read this one and I hope to see your faces again, on my new blog.

Started to work on a new story

2009-06-23T00:43:25Z

I recently started to work on a new story.
Right now, I am mostly just working on completing the storyline which will run through the entire story, after I’ve done that I will properly start to work on making the plotline more smooth and seamless, plus making sure that all the different pieces of the plotline fit perfectly together.

After I’m done with the main storyline I will start on an FreeMind map over the different storylines and the main plotline where I will be able to flesh out the different parts of the storylines and plotline.. This will also including comming up with the different characters of the story and jotting down a few things about their character, mental state, goals and such..

When that is done, I will properly start to work on seperating the story into chapters and when that is done, seperating the chapters into scenes. When that is done, the fun really begins, because then I will start to do the creative writing for every scene in every chapter.

When that part is done, I will go back and start to edit the scenes and chapters, making sure that they fit into eachother seamlessly so that my readers aren’t required to do, too big leaps of faith.

Many new game addons

2009-05-31T07:13:30Z

I just recently checked up on some of my XBOX 360 games, to see if they have released some new expansion packs or other addons that will allow to to revisit my older games and get a few new experiences.

Now granted, that I do have quite a few of the older games, that I still haven’t played all the way through, though there are a few exceptions, mostly Mass Effect though, I really really enjoyed that game, and I will prolly play through it once more, just for good measure. *chuckles*

But, yea, for new releases, I was sad to see that Mass Effect really hadn’t gotten any love from the developers, hopefully it’s because they are far too busy making Mass Effect 2 (hey one can dream right), but it is still annoying, but I was very plesantly surprised to see, that there was a host of new content for both Fallout 3 and Fable 2 and both are games I truely enjoyed playing.

It is hard for me to choose a primary favorite between Fallout 3 and Fable 2, mostly because they are both covering two different genres, genres which I really like (Fantasy and Sci-fi), though I think in an effort to be fair, that Fallout 3 would win, mostly due to the fact that it feels less repetitive than Fable 2, which can be a bit of a grind fest. *grins*

All in all, I think it will prolly end up buying all addons for both Fable 2 and Fallout 3 when money will allow me, though currently I have more trouble getting enough money to put food on my table. *smiles* And food is my top priority there, I bet many will understand that choice.

Enough rambling for now.. Thanks for reading, let me know (through the comments) if you have anything on your mind.

Quite Dead

2009-05-29T10:19:24Z

*hmms* Yea, well, sticking to things aren’t really, what I do best it seems, it has been over 4 months, since I last wrote a post here on the site.. Ouch..

*chuckles* I just seem to be very bad at remembering to write at all, plus I never really know what to write about.. So therefore I might be relaunching the site, reworking it a bit or opening up another site, loosely tied to this one, because I really wanna start to get some of my story ideas down on the paper and I am getting very tired of not being able to, get any better at anything, so there has to happen something soon and very soon at that..

Though for an update on what is happening in my life, just about has much as there happens on this site, which is absolutely nothing.

My most recent health issue is that I am fighting with an extreme migraine situation, which is kinda tearing my day apart, but it seems to be passing slowly. Today the pain from the migraine and the dizziness isn’t very pronounced, which is a good thing, so I can actually get a few things done, even though I tend to waste much of my time on casual games and World of Warcraft *chuckles* though I haven’t played World of Warcraft in almost a week and I don’t seem to have much interest in it right now.

I’ve done a little coding (read very little) and I just cannot seem to get into the gist of it currently, but I hope that, that will change in the near future, because I truely enjoy coding amoung other things.

I think that was it for now. I really need to try and remember to post, at least one post in here every week, though it’s very hard to motivate myself to do that, when so little happens in my life.

Oh well.. Till next time.

Hmm Drawing

2009-02-06T01:52:13Z

Well.. I’ve decided to take up drawing again, or at least try my hand on it again again. *chuckles* I’ve tried it before but I got frustrated with myself, because everything I seem to draw looks like crap *smiles* But this time I hope it will be different, not the “My drawings looks like crap” because they still do, but what will be different will be the drive behind my wish..

I have always wanted to become good at drawing, but I have always lacked the drive to really stick with one thing, instead of thousands of things at the same time, which is really annoying, as much for me, as for others that I might have started something with, only to abandon because I got distracted *pouts* but, as I wrote before, I hope that it will be different this time, so I decided to jump in with both legs and see where it takes me..

I have always been very fond of horses, so I’ve taken it upon myself to start there. I found some tutorials online, on how to draw a horse head and now I am kinda just gonna keep practicing that tutorial until I can do it, with my eyes closed and still get a good result. *chuckles* Right now though, phew.. Yea.. Not very good. *chuckles*

I seem to have pretty big problems with proportions, but I hope, after some more study of the equine head shape, that I can (with lots of tries) get the head into more accurate proportions instead of this, well, lizard like head that it resembles right now. *smiles*

I’ll try to keep my blog updated on my progress and maybe I will post some really ugly drawings as well, so you can see my progress (or lack there of) and have something to laugh about..

Any hints, pointers or general comments are, of course, always welcome.

Long Overdue Update

2009-01-27T02:33:40Z

Soo.. Yea.. And again it has taken me like forever to really write about something, but I think it’s mostly due to the fact, that nothing really has happened in my life and I hate to write about nothing really, so that is what has caused the lack of posts..

Most of my time has been taken by World of Warcraft, which a friend recently got me into playing again, only to leave the server I was on, without telling me, very odd in my eyes, though I have also been using quite a bit of time in Warhammer Online, which is like..

It is hard to say what parts of World of Warcraft I like and which I don’t like, but I think that the PvP in Warhammer Online is really really nice.
Warhammer Online and Dark Age of Camelot is the only two games, where I have really enjoyed doing PvP (or RvR as they call it), of course I’ve played quite a few first person shooters also, but I don’t really think of that as PvP, when I am talking about PvP, I am talking about MMO’s in general..

So.. Yea, those are the things that have really taken up my time recently. *giggles* Other than that, nothing much is happening in my life really..

Phew Long Time

2008-12-12T09:42:23Z

Phew, it has surely been a long time, since I’ve written anything here on my blog. *chuckles* I guess I’ve been swallowed too much up in playing some online NWN (Neverwinter Nights), but then again, hey whatever is fun I guess..

So now were in the holyday months, yea.. Well, I have never really been much for the holidays, I guess, there are just too much commercialism in this month, but I guess I will have to do what I can to enjoy myself..

It seems that my weight loss has stalled quite a bit, I’ve been laying on the same weight for quite a bit of time now, which is quite strange and very annoying, but I have also started to train a bit, which might just be the reason, because muscle way quite a bit more than fat. *giggles* Maybe I should start taking my measurement, just to be sure that I am still loosing inches..

My diet hasn’t changed much (yes it’s varied but still), though maybe I should try and eat more greens and less Yoghurt and Fibers. *smiles*

Oh well, other than that, nothing much has been happening in my life really, it’s been quite slow and boring to be honest. *smiles*

Untill next time, thanks for reading.

Crewbux

2008-10-24T10:10:56Z

I have just added a new PTC to my links collection, this one is called CrewBux..

They have many different things that makes them unique, including different ranks which gives you extra benifits and some really nice support and friendly admins.

They have some standard click rewards though their payouts are a little long, for standard members it’s 60 business days but for premium it is 40 business days and 30 business days for what they call honest members.

An honest member is something you can become, when you have gathered a few of their ranks (5), which all in all will cost you some cash..

You have to:

Click 100 premium ads to become Gold Clicker
Buy premium membership ($60 for a year)
Buy 5000 clicks worth of advertisement ($100 value)
Buy minimum 100 refs ($98 value)
Wait for your refs to make an total of 10,000 clicks.

After that, you can apply to become a Honest member, which gives you a whole suite of extra benifits, other than the reduced payout time..

I am currently testing the PTC, but I haven’t invested anything in it yet, because I’m still in the process of testing NeoBux also, though with NeoBux I have soon invested all the money that I need for my plan and I am ready to reap the benifits.

If you are interested in trying out CrewBux, check out the link in my links section, and please sign up under me (SilverDK)

Writing Advice

2008-10-09T19:23:14Z

Hey all..

I am looking to improve my writing, mostly because I love to write (stories especially) but I am rather rusty, especially when it comes to planning out the plot line and how I should structure the story into different chapters, therefore I am looking for anyone out there that has experience writing or just have some good advice on to achieve that goal..

I am looking for writers (or people that enjoy to write) to hear how they do it, when they sit down and want to change an idea into a story, but generally I just want to hear from anyone that has a few advices on how I can improve my writing style and how I can go from a loose idea, to a structured plot line.

I have some experience as a Dungeon Master (or Story Teller) and therefore I can use some of my experience from that field, in my writing as well, but I am still extremely rusty..

So please, if any of my readers (the few there are) know anyone that has any advice about writing, or themselves have some advices for me, please leave a comment or send me a message via my contact form..

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Forex Trading

2008-10-02T20:22:52Z

I have recently gotten an positive interest in Forex trading, though I have never tried it before, but it seems like fun and that it can be profitable.

I’ve signed up for a demo account, which I have assigned $3000 in “play” money, and so far today, with my limited knowledge, I have made an profit of $650, too bad this isn’t real money, but it gave me valuable knowledge into how the market moves and how it works.

So far it is quite fun, though I don’t think I will have enough money to start investing real money into Forex, for quite some time *giggles* Because many I’ve talked to, say between $1000 and $3000 in starting funds.

If any of you, out there, have any experience and/or interest in Forex trading, please feel free to leave a comment with any tips and hints, but please no links to strange scammer sites for Forex strategies, but if you have found any sites that provides valuable information, maybe even tutorials, in Forex trading, please leave that at a comment. *smiles*

Thanks for reading and take care.
