New stories and essays!

I have added a new fan-fiction category: Doctor Who fan-fiction, and added a story to it.

Also, I have added the essays I wrote for college between Fall 2012 and the present.  Have a look if you're interested.

I may or may not have a new original short story eventually--I started writing something this past week, and I'm not sure how long it's going to get.  If it's short enough, I'll post it instead of trying to get it published.

On a similar note, the original story I was working on turned out to be a novel over 40,000 words long!  I have had it revised by a trusted advisor (Thanks, Dr. Taft!), done the necessary revision and/or rewriting, and am now working on finishing up some supplemental material (maps, timeline, lexicon, etc.) before trying to get the whole thing published.  You won't see it in any of my online accounts, but once it's published I should have copies of the book to sell, lend or give away.

Finally, I have plans to publish a book of knitting patterns, but work on that is somewhat stalled.  I've just got too much to do at the moment to do so much swatching, graphing and pattern writing.

For those of you who don't know, I have completed my Associate of the Arts degree in English/Literature from Frederick Community College.  Last November (2013), I started on a Bachelor of the Arts degree in Applied Linguistics from Ashford University.  The classes are challenging, but the work is made easier due to the fact that I only take one five-week class at a time--and it's all online.

My credits from FCC finally transferred over last month (thank goodness!), and I should receive my B.A. by the end of October 2015.  That is, unless I go for the option that AU offers--working on my Master's degree while I'm still going toward my B.A; then it'll take a bit longer, though I don't know how much.
