Wrote 10 more pages of Book 8 of "The Demonata". Also plotted out the last couple of chapters. Had an idea for one of the earlier books in the series (book 6) while I was doing that. The nice thing about writing the way I do is that I can bounce about between books, tweaking earlier novels in response to ideas or changes in the later entries. It can get a bit confusing at times, but I like the chaos!!!

Hung a few paintings in the evening. I've got a lot of artwork sitting around or lying in drawers. I've started hanging it over the last few months, but it's going to be a long time before I get everything up. In fact, there won't be room for everything, so a lot of it will have to stay under wraps until and unless I build onto my house or move -- or else I'll just flog some of it on ebay!!!

Saw "The Breakfast Club" again. It's definitely a movie that's best appreciated by teenagers. I liked it when I saw it tonight, but it didn't hit me the way it did 17 or 18 years ago. Still, I'd certainly recommend it for anyone in their teens, especially if you feel like life's dealt you a raw hand and you're all alone in the world. This film will help show that most kids feel awkward and out of place at one time or another. My teenage years were pretty miserable in a lot of places and I know that I took a lot of comfort from movies, books, comics and bands which reflected the uncertainty I was feeling. It's comforting to know that you're not the only person in the world with problems and fears.
