Updates: What are you Doing?


I am a writer. I am also a human, a procrastinator and an experimenter. I will bring you stories and books, but for now blogs will suffice. My hobbies stretch further than blogging, so does my work, as sadly writing does not pay the bills. Neither does blogging, for that matter. So what does a writer do with his time?


Blogging on Niume

Currently, you can find me writing blogs on Niume (click here to go see it). This is where I find myself most of the time, or was until recently. I realised rather quickly that all the time I spent writing on Niume could have been spent working on my goals for this blog.

The goal is to have more than a blog. This blog will soon retire to make room for a website; a website with an atmosphere. There will be much to tell you soon, but for now let it rest as a mystery behind a veil.

New Logo

Not a bad logo to serve the emptiness temporarily,
but it lacks in the atmosphere I hope to offer.
The logo I'm using is temporary. It decorates the emptiness. Were it not there, this would hardly feel like a blog I could call my own.

I will be working with my graphic design teacher from Japi to create the new logo. This will form part of my course.

The new logo will form part of the entirely new look that will be a home for all of you. For me, it is all about the experience and without a proper website and logo, that experience I want to give you will never reach it's full potential.

Edit and Write

Celebrations are in order as I completed a book. For now I will follow the advice of many authors out there, and leave the book aside. I will edit this book after a few weeks. It will be a while before you can read it.

My work doesn't stop just because I have completed my resting book. I am already working on my next book. This one may take a while to write, as I need it to be done just right. Regarding both the editing and writing, I will keep you all posted. A new website will need some good stories to go with it, after all.

Creating

As mentioned before, I am an experimenter. I am trying to learn many different things at the moment. Some of those include creating 3D art, graphic design and learning a new language. My time is little and therefore I am hardly able to type a blog post for you on a regular basis. Once everything is set up and I have completed my course, I will hopefully have more time to create original blog posts.

I hope that you will find the blog posts at Niume sufficient for now. Updates will be given right here for those who are interested in the eventual unveiling.

Grammar Geek: Is It Believe In, Believe On or Believe That?

Since last week's post was on believe or belief , I decided to ask whether it's believe in , believe on  or believe that . All of these are correct and do get used. The questions are when, where, why and how. Here it is in what I hope is the simplest way to explain it and the easiest way to remember it. Believe In and Believe That Correlation A certain professor, H. H. Price , came to the conclusion that there is a difference between believe in  and believe that . To him, it came down to this, “Surely belief-in is an attitude to a person, whether human or divine, while belief-that is just an attitude to a proposition?” This makes perfect sense considering the words in and that . Personally, in  sounds a lot more involved and personal, whereas that  seems distant. Get that  away from me. Come on in . That might just be me though. However, this view might make things easier. What if this thinking was indeed the correct manner? To believe in someone is intimate. If you

Throne Room | Contact Me Photo Manipulation for The Castle Completed

The Throne Room (or Contact Me) photo manipulation for The Castle is complete ( see it here )! I like seeing how my abilities increase just a little every time I work on something new. I am definitely faster and more at ease to create certain moods and effects. My only issue is that I am not sure about how to create different effects. I got the photos for this photo manipulation here: Background Carpet Knight Statue Ivy 1 Ivy 2 Mural Stars Let me know what you think of this!

Update: A New Start for Scribe's Realm

As a full-time employee, I hardly have time to handle Scribe's Realm and write my stories. But! My artistic wife has agreed to help me, which means from now on, you should see more posts and some writings (we hope). We are very excited about our plans with Scribe's Realm and we are busy implementing them already. Here is what is coming your way this month. New Logo Design This is Scribe's Realm logo. We believe it brings forth what we want for Scribe's Realm: fantasy with a little touch of olden times. As I mentioned before ( here ), I want a complete new look for Scribe's Realm. We (this term will be used from now on for my wife and I) decided on a colour theme and our new logo is finally done. Photo of the Week Posts Every week, on Thursday (if we can stick to it), we will put up a photo of the week. We love photography and we have been learning new skills to take better photos. We hope that you will enjoy these photos, as much as we
