things what I have done lately

seldear1. My knee. (Ouch.) Getting better, but still achey and prone to twinges when bent too far. Constantly strapped.
2. I wrote over 50K of words in June. o.O Obviously not all of them are viable - some were story notes, by and large the majority were discards from scenes (where I wrote several thousand words that just weren't the right ones for that scene) - but I did finish 7 stories (nearly 8)!
3. Hockey. See #1 - Knee.
4. Joined "Camp NanoWrimo" - basically 50K of words in July. We'll see how that goes. *looks dubious* I'm going to try to add those words to Avengers Epic Of Doom. But the first scene between Maria and Steve is giving me heartburn. Too many iterations by now, so frustrating! Action? No problem! Relating? Ugh.
5. Worked really irregular weeks. A few days here, a few days there. A weekend or two. *grumbles*
6. Getting back into quilting - current project beneath the cut.
7. Had 3 quilts I worked on displayed at the Sydney Quilt Show 2013! (No prizes, though!)
Eternity: completed and hung! Now I have to work out what to do with it!
The Rainbow Connection: a group quilt by the Sydney Modern Quilt Guild - we're going to raffle this one off and the money made would go towards a women's shelter.
Santorini Sun And Sky: another one of mine that people might remember.
July will be the last month where I have large blocks of time free, so I'm going to have to split it out between my quilting and my writing. August will be full-time work again, and September will be travelling to the US and Italy! I'll put up a post for cities I'll be in if there's anyone who'd like to meet up!
things what I have to do in July
a) quilts, quilts, quilts - for the people I've stayed with and am staying with this trip! (got a colour or style pref? let me know!)
b) get as much of The Right Hand Knows Not (Avengers epic) written as possible before August.
c) lose 5kgs (~10 lbs) - enough so my clothes aren't all tight around the waist.
