The World of Poo

I picked up one of the three new Terry Pratchett books today, the WH Smith's exclusive collector's edition at that, and it was half price too!

new lulu

I've had to reboot my lulu, my old account was so messed up and all the half-finished projects had buried all my finished books and I accidentally deleted my online store so I really had to start again and I hope to spend more time this year writing so it makes sense to start the year this way.

ordered the new Who books

Borrowed Time, Touched by an Angel & Paradox Lost

Stardust

by Neil Gaiman, added to my to read pile

Probably Poetry released as an e-book

my first collection of poetry has been adapted into an e-book, with better formatting and everything (so it scans easier on an e-reader) so buy it if you want or not, I don't expect anyone to buy any of my books so it's always a pleasent if someone does.

Got a Kindle last month

it's great, amazon have a lot fo free books too, so I have some books to read :)

post

the last 3 books I've been waiting for as well as a CD I had on order and another one with it which I didn't order at all!

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner

Not a bad story, one long super chapter without breaks ala Terry Pratchett, it helped the story flow faster and so I got it read very quickly. It's a suitably good taster for the upcoming Eclipse movie, but on the whole I'd rather read Midnight Sun, it seems such a much more interesting project...

tomorrow

Alice in Wonderland is available on DVD and the Eclipse spin-off novella is out as well, which I have pre-ordered and paid for in advance :)

shopping part 2

Bought some books from Waterstones, the black cover versions of Equal Rites, Sourcery & Interesting Times. Also got the remixed & remastered version of Megadeth's Youthanasia CD. Some interesting reactions to me wearing very feminine clothes in Durham, going from a couple of lads laughing at me to a couple of guys really checking me out and even another woman checking me out too, so the feeling good about myself outweighed the ignorance of the insecure. While I am bi and I am attracted to some women I haven't seriously thought about looking within my own gender to find a significant other as my attraction to men far exceeds my lesbian side. I also saw a nice white handbag in BHS but I'll hold off buying it until I get paid on Friday.

major girly shopping day

I've bought a couple of pairs of trousers, a pair of bikini briefs, a large floppy sun hat, loads of jewellery, a new duvet cover, a couple of books, an action figure and a DVD all for just £75 :) That's most of my birthday money spent already but the trousers are just SO girly I had to buy them and I need more necklaces, bracelets and rings for my jewellery collection. What I really need though is a dressing table, a jewellery box and a really good vanity mirror.

books

I've ordered myself the black cover editions of Pyramids and Small Gods :)

book shopping

got the black cover version of Guards Guards, Men at Arms and Jingo toay :)
