I’ve just posted the latest update to Alayne’s Story over on the WoW-Europe RP forum. This week takes the characters through the Frost Wing of Icecrown Citadel. Soon, they’ll be facing the Lich King himself.
The wind-down of Part III is much smoother than Part II’s was. And, now that things have gotten…if not exactly calm at least less hectic at work, I should have time to work on The Unexiled and start doing the editing I want to do on Alayne’s Story. I’m also going to cut down my WoW on the Weekends time significantly so that I can spend time working on my writing more.
And, I know, I promised you guys a lot of information about my past. I’m working on it. I still need to try to clear things up with a couple of parties involved in it and make sure that they’re okay with me posting it all up for the world to see, even though I’m planning to leave real names and identities out.
Anyhow, back to work.

And now, back to work.
Ruby Sanctum Video
Well, on Monday my guild cleared Ruby Sanctum. They’d been having trouble getting raids going for the two weeks I was in the States due to about half of the guild also being on vacation or being distracted by that pesky World Cup thing. So, Monday, migraine notwithstanding, we went in and bagged Halion. I couldn’t record the first encounter because my video drivers were out-of-date and FRAPs was being an ass. But, I got the second encounter we did last night and uploaded it with credits to the people who were in the first kill. I’ll have to redo the credits to include the two others who were in last night’s kill but I’ll do that later.
So, for your viewing pleasure:

Things are getting rather hectic in my life right now. We’ve got a major deadline coming up at work and other things, while going well, are still not great. So, I’ve been slacking a bit lately just trying to rest and recuperate from my vacation.
And, speaking of that, I’m going to go do some resting now.

I’ve just posted the latest update to Alayne’s Story over on the WoW-Europe RP forums. We’re finally drawing near to the end of Part III. I’ve actually finished the last scene and will just be spending the next couple of weeks posting what I already have written. Once I get back from the US, I’ll start work on The Unexiled again and will also try to find a way to get Alayne’s Story printed out so I can proofread and annotate it for revision.
I’m enjoying my vacation for the most part. I’ve managed to get a pretty good sinus infection, though, what with all of the pollen. And, my parents are kind of peeved with me at the moment over something I told them. Still, they’re taking the news better than I thought they would which is saying a lot.
More about that when I’m back home. For now, I’m going to go try to enjoy being here.

And, last night, I started on the last scene of Part III. I’ve been slacking a bit, taking it easy and trying to rest up before my trip to the US. I’ve had a lot on my mind lately and hopefully, after some pretty frank discussions I’m planning to have while over there, I should be able to finally get most of the whole twisted sodding story out there.
I’ve a reason for wanting to drag some of my skeletons out of the closet, you see. But, enough about that for now. Now I need to go get finished packing.

I’ve just posted the latest update to Alayne’s Story over on the WoW-Europe RP forums. This week’s update takes us through the Halls of Reflection and an encounter with the Lich King. I mixed together the Horde and Alliance versions of the attacks for this update.
And, in just seven days, I’ll be packing my bags for a two-week long vacation in the US. I’m going back to visit my family. I’ll hopefully get to take some photos of my nieces and nephew and will try to put them up here.
Also, I am almost done with Part III. I’m really hoping to get a chance to sit down and do some serious work on the last few scenes tonight and this weekend. Then, somehow, I’ll have to find a way to bribe my husband into letting me print them out at home (my boss would shit a brick if I asked him about printing out 1100+ pages at work). That will give me something to do on the plane since there’s a LOT of proofreading that needs to be done.
And now, back to work.
Counting Down the Days
Just twelve days left until my husband and I fly to the States to visit my family. I can’t wait to get to see my nieces and nephew again. And, while I’m nervous, I’m looking forward to the chance to finally talk with some people and get some things cleared up. Win or lose, there will be some pretty major annoucements coming up here in a few weeks.
Two Weeks
In just two weeks, I’ll be flying back to the US to visit my family and see my nieces and my nephew. I’m really looking forward to this trip even though I know that there are going to be some rather unpleasant aspects to it.
And yes, I’ll tell all three of you who read this site about it (or about as much of it as I feel comfortable revealing) when I get back.
One of the more pleasant things is that my youngest niece will be christened while I’m there. I’ve been asked to be one of the godparents and I’ve agreed to do it with a few reservations. First of all, my neice will be raised Catholic. I was raised Catholic but I converted to Orthodoxy ten years ago. So, I’ll be making certain she learns the beliefs and practices of both faiths, not just the one. Secondly, I’m hoping that if a certain situation on the job-front pans out, I might be moving to the States again and, if that’s the case, I’m hoping that my sort-of-sisters will consider naming me my niece’s legal guardian in case something were to happen to them. It’s not that I’d want anything to happen — I’d pray that I’d never have to excerise my guardianship. But, I’d like to know that, if something did happen, she would be well taken care of.
I wouldn’t mind acting as guardian for the other two as well. However, the situation there is a bit different since there’s no blood relation between us and their fathers might have something to say about the matter.
Ah well. We’ll just have to wait and see. Just two more weeks…

I’ve just posted the latest update to Alayne’s Story over on the WoW-Europe RP forums. This week takes us up to the end of the Pit of Saron.
I’m rather hopeful of being able to pull off a marathon session over the next few weeks and getting Part III finished on my end. I know that there will a lot of editing to do since I had to do so much work on-the-fly in this part what with unexpected raids, encounters, etc, etc, etc.
All of that is making me think that I may wait until later in Cataclysm to get Part IV started. It’s an on-going argument with myself. However, I am hoping to make good use of the time lapse to edit Alayne’s Story and get some serious work squared away on The Unexiled.
And now, back to work.
