I feel like I'm pretty cagy about things and this is supposed to be my writer blog.  So, that's what I'm going to do with it right now.

I've been working on a novel and once again things are taking unexpected turns.  Someone has turned up murdered and I wasn't really intending to make this a mystery.  I still don't know if it will be one because the main character is not going to be an amateur sleuth.  She is currently dating the guy who could be doing the detecting (he is a series character but this particular book is not from his point of view).  So I'm not sure.  She knew the victim.  I may just make it a sideline of the story but I don't know.  This guy was an asshole when he was alive and he's still an asshole now that he's dead for complicating my book!

In the meantime, I had a cleaning spell at home because I was avoiding writing.  Also because I discovered that my nose piercing isn't closed up and I was looking for my body jewelry so I can put something in.  I also might not have lost my septum piercing, which would be nice.  I miss all my jewelry.  I have no idea where any of it is and it's probably outside in the shed.  Inconvenient.

I also have to make Halloween costumes.  I have to hunt down a shirt to turn into a Kirk shirt for Nick. And I'm not sure what I'll be.  I would like to dye my hair again but I have no bleach.  I have some fairly serious roots going on, though, and the pink has faded a lot.

I also had a waxing adventure on Friday night but it turned out pretty well even though I gave up partway through and just shaved.  I think I'll make it a gradual waxing so stay tuned in two weeks when I give it another go.
