2020

2020 means a lot of things! Here's a highlight of current details:


  1. I have a New Years resolution to finish this novel project I will begin at some point. I'm almost done with my Harry Potter project, and once that's finished, I'll work on this novel project. Title and details will be hidden, as if/when I publish it, I'm planning on using my real name...and thus keeping the details hidden will keep this blog disconnected from my real, actual life!
  2. Edge of Space Roleplay will not be immediately activated. I'm going to wait for at least a total of 3 characters. (I've already made one, so I'm really only waiting on two.)
  3. Lots and lots of puns regarding vision. Here's one for you: "Why didn't I realize a new year had started today? Because I don't have 2020 vision." (Fun fact: I really don't, in either sense of the pun. Another fun fact: that's a true story. I didn't realize it was 2020 for a couple hours.)
  4. A New Chapter of the Mark Borne Nexus. But, fun fact: many chapters aren't that different from the previous chapter, so you can count on 2020 being very similar to 2019 on this blog, except for possibly me being super busy in the fall and beyond. More on that at a later date.
  5. January Ant Awards is slightly delayed...again. This indicates you can expect it to be a "Within the first week of the month" kind of post, not an immediate post. I'm also discontinuing the Spotlight Author thing. No one contributes to it, which forces me to think hard for 10 minutes and make a huge decision, so I've decided we might as well not do it. As I always say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it, and if broke it is, replace it." Except, Spotlight Author was the replacement for Author of the Month, so there'll be no replacement.

My Talent (Poem by Mark Borne)

By
Many places, I've come to know, People of different cultures, too; They all have their thing, Something that they can do, But not me, not yet, My talent has yet to show up. I write and write, plots And twists and poems and Even the rare favorite of The readers I've lured And ensnared in my blog. Yet deep inside, I force myself To write the words that meet The lines of text and thoughts. Then I turn to run, and Find the wind upon my face As I escape my life, But it always catches up, And the worries I face Distract me, making the Outside world obsolete. Even in reading, I find Myself buried in stories That show misfortune in the Lives of fictional characters, Directly only to do as they Were told by the writer. And yet, in stories there is a Beauty unmatched by reality, A world that eventually Results in kindness and Peace and excitement. And being in those worlds, If only for a mere moment, Is my hobby. If only I could Be the character in the ...

Nexus Mad Libs

By
I assume most of you are familiar with what Mad Libs are. Basically, you're given a bunch of blanks to fill in, and you do so without knowing what the story is. Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per...
