Busy and distracted.

This past month has bin filled with more than ample stuff to keep my inspiration flared up for at least the duration of summer.

To start things of I spent the first week with a cold, I got so tired of that that I decided to call my general practitioner, but the one currently running the practice was on a holiday so I had to call around to find another that could help me. After finally getting an assistant on the phone I was informed that I should call back the next day because they only make appointments between 8 and 9:30. So the next day I call all the numbers again and once again only the last on the list picks up. By that time it was 9:10 and I was informed that all the slots for that day where filled but if I thought that what was ailing me was really annoying maybe she could help me. So after telling her that I have bin dealing with this cold for 7 months now, she wrote down my specifications and tolled me to call back after 12 because she was going to ask the doctor if there was anything that needed to be done. So after waiting for 3 hours I called back and I was informed that considering my past ailments I most likely was suffering from an inflammation in my Eustachian tube. Whoopee. Last time that happened there where some very traumatic things done to me. Just imagine a rubber screwdriver and your nostril. This time all I got was a nasal spray. So I was all happy that I was coming of fairly easy and pretty happy left for the pharmacy. But when it was finally my turn my bank card declared that I didn't have any money on it. I knew that could not be correct as I had checked just the previous day if there was enough money on it to pay the bills I was expecting and I had more than enough. So here I had to ask them to hold on to it and I had to call my mom asking her to come bring me some cash. It was a lousy 2 Euro and I didn't have it.

In the end it seemed that my bank had inadvertently paid a bill that was scheduled to be paid 5 days later (when I had gotten paid) because of that 2 other bills had not bin paid and I had less than 1 buck in my account. So in the end I had to take a nasal spray and hunt down everything that went wrong with my money and clear everything with the people that did not get paid. The bank at least admitted that it was a flaw on there side, and helped me with getting my money to the proper accounts.

Then on the 16th my best friend and I went to Disney on Ice, I have bin dying to go to one of those shows since I was 5. I loved it. put pretty much the entire show on my mobile. If I knew you were allowed to record and take pictures I would have taken my camera with me.

And after that I was informed that the group I joined on Deviantart had found me a beta reader. Now I just need to get the courage to contact the person. Wish me well.

Maybe this will help me out.

My entry survey for Beta-Readers;

I am a writer.

1. May we send your survey response to your partnered beta reader?

Sure, can't see why not.

2. Are you new to beta reading?

Yes and no. I have had people Beta-read my work before, but they were to close to me to say anything about errors.

3. Your age (optional):

Consenting adult. (bin writing for 20 years if that helps)

4. Genre(s) – Please be specific:

I write every genre and nearly every type of format.

5. Rating: G, PG, PG-13, R, or MA?

Depending on the story, all of the above.

6. Warnings: Sex, violence, politics, religion, and other hot button issues.

Most of my story's are written in a way to relieve my mind from thoughts about what goes about in the world and my direct surrounding. So I can write about the weather or a Gay serial killer who goes after religious politicians. I don't hold back.

7. What's your writing skill level?

My writing started as a way to tell my story's and to overcome my dyslexia. In time I have become better than the average beginner but no where near a professional.

8. What writing aspects are you trying to improve?

What I hope to improve is the flow of my longer story's. I'm quite capable to have a start, middle and end to my shorter ones, but the second my story become longer than 8000 words I loose oversight, my characters loose dept and I let holes drop in the plot.

The next thing that needs improvement is that I need somebody to pick my inconsistent words out of the ruble. It happens that I call something "this" the one moment and "that" the other.

9. What are you looking for in the beta reader?

Somebody that isn't afraid to 'hurt' my feelings when pointing out flaws. Somebody that isn't scarred about putting there foot down. Somebody that can handle a moody, shy, and seriously lacking trust in ones self writer. Somebody that doesn't quit the second my temper gets the better of me. Somebody that understands that I am completely loyal to those I trust and is capable to give the same amount of loyalty.

In short somebody that I can build a long-lasting 'relationship' with.

10. Do you promise to put sincere effort into your partnership?

If I wasn't I'd never have filled in this survey.
