Fuck me. I've just spent the last hour and a half typing up the talk I gave to my Editing class on comics (although, to be more accurate, it could be titled "The effect British comic book writers have had on the industry in the last twenty years, or, a selected look at my comic book shelf."). It clocks in at two thousand and forty words. That's a huge amount. I'd better fucking well get an outstanding result on this, considering the effort involved. I just need to fit all the images I used (about thirty, I think, from memory) to the text, then I plan on posting it here. I daresay I have some things (perhaps most things) embarrassingly wrong, but ah well.

I brought fairy floss to Novel class today. Also, I got my novel manuscript back and I got an HD! Life is good.

Yay!
I've been waiting for your update!
I want to read your presentation, please ma'am.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Update on what? *perplexed*

You shall. As soon as I HTML it and put the pictures in, and so forth.

[notfudge.livejournal.com]

On LJ.
Because I have been Stuck and Bored with Nano, and your updates are always interesting.
*is a damn dork*

Whoo...reading of things...!

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Aw, shucks.

[jennuine.livejournal.com]

Oohh, congrats on the HD!! :D

Ah wait this means that you were in B94 today!! Did you see me, perchance? I was the girl in a pink hat and pink jacket.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Don't remember. Mind you, I went into Novel class, left the building quickly, walked down to Minotaur, back to Short Story, went to class, then we left and went to the pub. So y'know, not particularly observant, and suchlike. But I will be in tomorrow from 12.30, as I have a Vis Ink meeting, on level 3, then a computer class on level 4.

Hmm I'm not sure what time my assignment's due in - I'll probably be in and out before noon. But, I procrastinate way too much, so I might be running around the library around then. If you see someone in bright yellow or pink and looks like shes going to cry and who answers to the name Jennifer, its probably me. :)

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Aw. *pets* Then here's hoping I don't see you. ;)

[celeloriel.livejournal.com]

Good lord. That's HUGE.

Yaaaay!

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

And the frightening thing is it's horribly short. I didn't have remotely enough time to talk about things.

[darketherdream.livejournal.com]

HD! HD! That is incrediably joyous to hear!!!

If you have any comic pointers, would you post them? I'm starting to ink mine in today, and I don't believe it is...comic enough. *cries* I need sleep.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

Yep!

I don't really have any ... I'm the wrong person to ask. I just pencil it, then ink it, and scan it and colour it. *shrugs* You might want to try playing with the line thickness a bit. That can be fun.

[darketherdream.livejournal.com]

Hm, I never thought to colour it. It's very monochrome in character. *muses*

You know I never thought drawing, writing, and inking a short comic would be so...difficult. *sigh*

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

*laughs bitterly* I could have told you that. ;)

Will we get to see it when you're done?

[darketherdream.livejournal.com]

Maybe, I don't know...I have to hand it in on thursday. Maybe I'll get photocopies.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

GLEE! You must! I want to see. :D

[darketherdream.livejournal.com]

but it's horrible! *cries* I finished inking it last night (I mean, I still have a bit to go but still), and I hates it. Maybe because I've been staring at it continuously for the past two days. But I grow weary of it.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

*nods sagely* That always happens. *pets* I usually ask people neurotically whether the latest Wackiness is actually funny, because I've been staring at it so long I can't tell anymore.

[darketherdream.livejournal.com]

I only recently began reading wackiness. And by revently I mean two days ago (I followed a link there, yay!). I love it, and shall read it now forever after, ha ha.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I'm pleased. ^__^

[buhfly.livejournal.com]

HD?

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

High Distinction.

Pass, Credit, Distinction, High Distinction.

So yeah.

[buhfly.livejournal.com]

Oh, you don't get letters?

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

What, A, B, C etc? Only in school.

Though the grade style changes depending on the uni. Melbourne Uni (and I think they're alone in this) has H1, H2A, H2B, H3, Pass, Fail. (Honours class 1 etc)

[buhfly.livejournal.com]

How odd. We have letter grades all through uni.

[delirieuse.livejournal.com]

*tilts head* Hmm. However, our tertiary institutions are vastly different from yours, so I'm not surprised. I suspect we're closer to the British model.

[buhfly.livejournal.com]

I wish I'd gone to british schools....
