Funny how things go in bursts. I used to be very active here on dA for quite a few years, but interests change and I just haven't wanted to paint or draw lately. It's not a thing I'm stressed about, I'm sure I'll want to paint again once life calms down a bit and I can afford a painting program that's compatible with Windows 7 and won't have to start up a separate computer for it.

I have written a great deal though, with three ongoing novel projects and several short stories. I suck at writing short stories, but how can you get better if you never write it? It's not like I was a novel-writing genius earlier on... Anyway, I think all of the novel projects have potential. I'm currently fiddling with the plot, trying to make things make sense and get the whole thing to flow properly. It's difficult, being that it's actually the first time I edit a plot instead of just making a brand new one.

In addition to that I have my master's thesis that's still not finished (will finish it in May at the latest), and which has top priority. I also have work, and I've just started doing translations... I also have a book blog (ciuva.blogspot.com - only in Norwegian though) that's starting to go well. So it's a lot. But it's fun.

I've also been without Internet for nearly a week - got it back just before the weekend, and got a TV subscription as well. It's such an effective way to procrastinate...

What have you guys been up to?

Ooh, you have a LOT going on! o____O Recently my life has gotten a lot /less/ busy. Now, pretty much all I do is listen to music, paint (either in my yard or in my bedroom), and read. xD It's fun, but I hate not being able to write anything good. I'm definitely going to follow your blog; I don't know Norwegian, and reading it will help not only with my Norwegian skills, but with my Swedish. :)
