I was a bad girl

heavenly_pearlI broke the promise I made to myself not to start collecting any new manga series until I finished three (well, now two) of the series I'm currently collecting. >.< Mom's boss gave her a small bonus this week, so when we went to the bookstore today, she told me I could buy $30 worth of manga. I actually wanted the omnibus edition of Azumanga Daioh, since I could get all four volumes at once and (technically) not break the promise, but, unfortunately, they didn't have any in stock, so I ended up getting the official Fruits Basket fanbook (which is so much better than the unofficial character guide I got for Christmas) and the first two Full Moon volumes instead.
Oh, well. At least Full Moon is only seven volumes long. That's not too bad, I guess.
On the writing front, I'm almost finished with my first Princess Tutu fic, Search for the Missing Past. (Yeah, I know the last time I talked about my writing, I was working on Only Human, but I'm afraid my inspiration fizzled out once again on that one. *sigh*) I actually really wanted to finish it this week, but Dad took his vacation this week, and it's always more difficult for me to write when other people are around. It's turning out quite a bit longer than I originally thought it would be. *laughs* When I first got the idea, I thought it would be a 5,000 to 7,000 word one-shot, but it's already over twice as long! I may even post it as a multi-part, but I haven't made a definite decision yet. Anyway, I'm working on the last (or maybe second-to-last) scene, so I am pretty sure I will finish it next week. *crosses fingers* I can't wait to finally finish something of substance after so many months!

on 2008-04-13 01:08 am (UTC)I've been hearing rumors that VIZ may drop the anime mid-series, so I figured it would be a good idea to check out the manga to at least get a complete version of the story (although I know there are some fairly major differences between the two).
