Non-TF Interests?

Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

It's called 10 Ways to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse, it was really a ball auditioning for it, had a lot of fun, I'm trying out for narrator 1 or 2 and a zombie.

For everyone who's interested in the series I was talking about earlier, In a Galaxy Far, Far Awry, there's a Thunderclap campaign I'm spreading the word on at http://bit.ly/iagffa1tc.

What Thunderclap is is a free service where you lend your social media voice to help spread the word on an upcoming event, in this case the launch of my Kickstarter.

If you're interested in helping out, pop on over to that link and scream your electronic voices off to help get my Kickstarter Kickstarted.

I wish I could help you out man, but, I love this idea. On my side of things the play is going well, school is good, and I might just be asking somebody out soon.

Don't worry about it, Madeus Prime. If you do want to help out, just pass the word on. But I by no means expect someone to extend themselves beyond their financial means, if that's what you're getting at. It's all good!

The campaign is launched, everyone! If you want to support, just check for the link at the release I'm posting around the Internet, and have fun with the results!

★★ Superheroes! Comedy! Space! Other single-word exclamations! ★★

The In a Galaxy Far, Far Awry rocket launches today! Until March 6, 2015, show your support for the series by visiting its campaign site at http://bit.ly/inagalaxyfarfarawry_campaign and investing in the most farcical superhero comedy series this side of its author’s cooking ability.

If you want to see this series become a reality, you can help by:

* Showing your support at the campaign site and taking advantage of tons of sweet rewards
* Passing this e-mail along to your friends, family, and dental hygienists
* Eating all your vegetables and living a long and fruitful life

Don’t miss out on your chance to snag signed copies of the first book’s initial run, exclusive book covers such as the stick man cover, video updates on the publishing process, a sneaky peak at the plot for issue 2, deleted scenes, shiny karma, and bragging rights…just for supporting this comedy phenomenon.

Help make this series a reality: join half-dozens of like-minded people and contribute to what some random guy called “you’ll pay me how much to say this is a masterpiece?” and what the author’s mom called an “I still don’t understand what you’re talking about, but you’re welcome to stop by for dinner” event of the year!

No, it's even crappier than Va'al's. That's why I haven't read it for over a year.

I enjoy learning about history, and I've participated extensively in transcription and records auditing with Ancestry.com's World Archives Project.

I'm a Type 2 diabetic, and because of this, I've taken up healthy cooking/eating. So when I'm not pinning pretty robots to Pinterest, I'm probably pinning delicious crockpot or one-pan recipies. ;) Also, I'm a HUGE fan of spicy food. Probably won't be biting into a ghost pepper anytime soon, but a dish with a lot of scoville heat and a ton of flavor really does it for me.

I enjoy the store 'CVS' and I'm kind of a coupon queen in that place, so I'm frequently located in some random aisle in any given store, looking for bargains.

I don't have a family of my own, but I enjoy helping out schoolkids. I've volunteered with Girl Scouts in the past & I also donate to classroom projects on donorschoose.org. Eventually, when my job situation allows me more time, I'd like to apply to become a Big Sister (in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program, run by United Way).

Uh, let's see, what else?! I'm on Reddit a lot. I love /r/WhatCouldGoWrong and /r/PublicFreakouts. I swear I don't wear a fedora, never said 'mlady', and I'm totally not a neckbeard. :lol:

tl:dr: I'm kind of a weirdo. So what do YOU do when you're not here?! Post it below, let's talk. Thx :-B



Welcome! I am pretty new here joined not long before you.

My life outside of TFs is consumed by work, I am a trainer (not physical) I train new hires and tenured folks at my company. I am also very busy with my partner and our furry four legged children; Chloe and Chapin (as in Mary Chapin Carpenter). They are 2 Labrador retrievers one yellow and one chocolate. Best little girls around, they are pains sometimes but oh so love-able!

Here are they are at christmas time....

Chloe

Chapin

Totally dig spicy food, the hotter the better! Just had some jalapenos stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon the other day. Need to get a pot of chili going now and summer is coming so jerk chicken will be going on the grill along with rubbed ribs! I love to cook, I hate to bake!

I can't sit still so I am always working on some project, making or putting something together. I built a deck on the back of the house this past summer, after the addition was added (that I did not do!). Then we remodeled the bathroom (that was fun but dicey :shock: ). Aside from the sci-fi aspect of TFs that is what is one of the most appealing things about transformers for me they are very tactile.

In addition to TFs I am into programming and have been tinkering about with bot building via Arduino. I am also a huge Lego fan have been collecting those over the years as well...

You did not mention in your post, do you also collect TFs? If so what do you collect?

Lovely dogs, welcome to the site. :D

So, aside from my comic, I've discovered I have a knack for digital poster making in photoshop, literally I had 45 minutes to make a poster for prom, completed it in 38. :DANCE:

This feels a little shameless, but I've been working all day on it, and I feel like telling someone who has no close links, so please bear with me. :D

I do freelance translation and writing, and while the first is mostly on whatever the job might be, I also translate poetry as a 'spare-time' thing (I regularly contribute to this online publication: http://thenorwichradical.com/arts/).

However, recently I've been contracted to contribute to a book series by DK (examples here and here), with The Literature Book. Just five or so entries out of many many more, but it feels nice to have my name in something like this. :)

Especially after contributing around 30 entries to the Oxford Companion to Children's Literature, and not being able to obtain credit other than in the Acknowledgements. Silly editorial demands.
