I believe I’ve mentioned before that this is the third blog I’ve started.
The first, back in 2008, was a mock presidential campaign I ran for a friend of mine, as a joke. The second, in 2009, was Coffee With Sargeras, written from the viewpoint of World of Warcraft’s biggest villain. And now this one.
(Oddly enough – and I’m just realizing this right now – I started all three in the February/March timeframe. Must be something about the end of a long winter that makes me want to inflict my suffering on other people.)
Anyway, for a while now I’ve been meaning to write a post in celebration whenever this blog surpassed the other two and became my longest-running to date. I always meant to look up when that would be, but never got around to it. Figured it was still a while off.
Yeah. Turns out, it happened almost four months ago.
So…
*cuts cake*
*pours champagne*
*raises glass*
A toast. To kicking ass and taking names. (Where “taking names” means “people leaving their names in the comments,” and “kicking ass” means, as it always does, “putting a lot of words on the Internet.”)
Man, enough about me. What about you guys? What have you celebrated lately?

Well, I was really happy when I finished the second draft of my novel. Over the next two weeks, I have christmas break, so by the end I should be done with my third draft. Then I have to do a contextual edit, then a grammatical read-through, and then I send it off to beta readers and get feedback. After that, my story will be sent to a publisher. Writing and school is really all i’ve been doing recently, so that’s all I’ve celebrated.
Very cool! Congrats, Alex, and good luck.
