Since this is one of my first blogs this year(and with a Christmas break coming up) I figured it would be a good time to toss out my goals for projects this year. The following are my goals:
Book of Shadows - This will take a great deal of studying and research, but most books out there to be used as reference are clouded with a lot of the feel for Wicca and lack many spells for the already practicing wiccan. I hope to make a personalized written book of shadows this year, perhaps using scrap booking materials so that I can adjust the amount of pages and have plenty of nice space to work with. Finish a short story - This is one that I have been working on already, I have described the world and characters and written an example of a chapter of story. I am currently working on the character design because I am determined to be able to add some illustrations to it and have been playing with the concept designs. I suppose the biggest influences here come from my background in reading tons of fantasy books over the years ever since elementary school and the morbid influence that I have gained from my love of Tim Burton. Though I do enjoy anime, I have only started dabbling in drawing it in the last few months, so am going to use the illustrations as a chance to really explore the style. Web comic - Am currently trying to convince my friends to start one with me (we could partition up the jobs to keep it going!) But I guess the most reliance is on jack….and he really does wander lots… Fill half my new Art book (50pgs) - I am just finishing the last 35 pages in my old one. Cover my two Canvas’s - Must. Paint. Write some lyrics - There have been too many times where I start with humming random notes and then work my way to my own rhythm, feel, and lyrics. Must actually get down to business and write it down and see if its tolerable when taken out of the spur of the moment context. O.o I suppose It would be reasonable to have the goals to not fail my classes or become homeless either. Those I work fairly hard to maintain. Will get more bloggy, and less compulsive list making soon, promise.

Regarding lyrics-writing: the best advice I can give you is to just write stuff down. Don't even consider whether it is good or bad, because that comes later with editing. If stuff is coming to you from time to time, you need to keep the early stages of the process judgement-free, or else you'll never write down a word.
