Royal Wedding! Random Thought

The Royal Wedding! Can we get a collective cheer?

Now there are two types of people when it comes to the Royal Wedding. There are the ones who scoff who complain rather loudly about the coverage and there are the ones that wait with bated breath ready to see Kate in her big white dress.

Myself I am in the second category. While I haven’t been one of those people who have been watching every about the Royal family, normally I hear white noise whenever the Royals are mentioned, but this is different.

Why is it different though? Is it because of my soft hopeless romantic side or is it because I, like so many, need some escapism. Escapism, there is a reason why during great depressing times in history that the cinemas boom with musicals, comedies and films where we are the good guys and beat the people threatening our ‘shores’.

If we look around today we see people killing each other, mother earth unleashing her beautiful fury and the death toll rising all the time, so why not bask in a little bit of a fairy tale. With the death in the world why can’t we take solace in watching a girl becoming a princess without having the Disney accompanied soundtrack.

So a scone, a glass of champas, turn on your T.V and embark in some escapism, even if it’s only for a couple of hours.

ANZAC Day

Happy ANZAC Day!

The 25^th of April is the most important day in Australia’s history, well to me personally. Its a day where Australia unities and remembers those who sacrificed for the freedoms we now take for advantage.

I am not going to use this here today to make some soap box flippant repark like some idiot who shouldn’t have twitter have, because today is not the day for that. Today is a day where we remember those fought and are still fighting now. Today we remember those who have been touched by the horrors of war and today is the day where we one day hope that the world will be at peace and there will be no need for wars, deaths and heart ache.

Lest we forget.

 

When the Edit is Finished

Hey all!

I told you I would keep you up to date with all the amazing goings on with the fantastic world of editing. (Please note the sarcasm.) 

Well it’s done. Which may not seem like a huge deal for you un-objective third party, but to me it’s almost as a mile stone as finishing the story. I am a major procrastinator, which is why this blog only has a couple of posts, so for me to finish and have the outline for the next two stories (well really the next story) is unheard of.

So what now?

Well I am going to write a synopsis.

How do I write a synopsis? Good question, I don’t really know, but that is why God invented google. 

Anyway this was just a quick post to keep you up to date.

I am hoping to post some other stuff in the near future that isn’t always about my writing, but this is after all a public record of me writing and finishing and hopefully trying to get my work published.

Keep Wearing those Fancy Pants.
