Turning a Novel into a Webcomic

Hey Mibba! Long time, no see. I know it probably seems like I pop in like once a year to just make a blog post and go the hell away but...well...I do miss this place. Mainly, I miss writing. Still haven't really written anything new in about three/four years.The difference is that I'm kind of becoming a more visual person, if that makes sense? I graduated this spring from UCF with a Character...

It's Been a Hot Minute

Hey whoa hey! What the hell is a Mibba? By the looks of it, I sure don't know.I'm poppin' in for a second to say some stuff. (I guess that's pretty obvious, that's what blogs are for.) For starters, I gotta come clean: I haven't written jack SHIT since my fall 2015 semester. I've outlined shit and started a story that I never posted, and then since then I haven't actually sat down and written...

Crap Happens

Hi! I haven’t done jack shit here in a while. I wrote a couple of oneshots this summer and I’ve lurked in the forums here and there but when I get down to it, I’ve kinda disappeared. On the off-chance that anybody’s been wondering why, shit happens, lmao.I worked at Burger King this summer and although I got a good couple of bucks from that, man, they milked my hours as much as they could....

Seeing Say Anything for the Third Time in a Year + Updates/Other Crap

Can you tell Say Anything is my favorite band? Haha.Anyways, last night was huge! And there was so much stuff and I just felt like telling about it, and I figured I haven’t posted a blog here in a while despite meaning to, so I figured I’d kill a few birds with one stone.So Say Anything announced their current tour a few months ago, and there were two huge reasons why me and my boyfriend...

Re-Introduction

Well, I'm not sure I ever did a real introduction to Mibba in the first place way back when, but I figure now's a good time to jump into Mibba's Positivity Month, right during finals week.Anyways, my name's Kelly! Aaaand I used to be a lot more active here until the past few months. XD I don't have any stories to update at the moment and nothing too bloggable is goin' on, so, uh, yeah. I joined...

Empty Nest Syndrome & Spinoffitis

I think my dad has officially succumbed to Empty Nest Syndrome.I'm in college right now, and my brother has been living at home since Spring 2011; he was in college for a few years before realizing that it just wasn't for him, and just a few weeks ago he left for bootcamp. He's joining the navy and I think he's the happiest he's been in a while, and I'm proud of him and everything, but...my dad...

Movie Survey, Because I'm Incredibly Bored

My life has basically been a mosh pit of hurry-up-and-wait lately. Some days are packed with everything and the kitchen sink, and then days like today, my morning was hectic and the rest of the day is bound to be lackluster. So I'm killing time with this movie survey that's everywhere on the blogs page right now. XDI am SO BAD at picking just one movie for these questions, so I just...completely...

The "Beta Stages" of a Story

Do you ever start out with a very basic skeleton for a story and then once it's all done, you look back at your early drafts and think, "What the hell was I doing?"'Cause, um, that happens to me literally all the time. It happened in full force a few hours ago when I looked back at stuff I wrote in eleventh grade, but I'll get to that in a little while.Sometimes characters get fleshed out first,...

Published on Amazon Kindle

So I published a kids' book on Amazon Kindle! I'm super happy about it because you don't even need an e-reader or tablet to read it on a computer, so I'm gonna post about it on Facebook so all of my technologically impaired relatives can read it if they want. XDI know there's a "stigma" against publishing on Kindle, since it's free to sign up and publish, and pretty much anybody can publish...

Nothing New

It's so strange, not having to update any stories here on Mibba at the moment. o_OAbout a week ago (heh heh) I posted the last chapter to my story Earth to Me, the sequel to Generation Why Bother, and in a way, it kinda feels like the end of an era for me. Or something like that, I dunno. I wrote both of those stories when I was about to start new years of college and here I am in the beginning of...

Cat Runs a Bakery + Character Survey, Featuring Alana Quinn of Who Knows, Who Cares

Nope, there's not actually a cat out there who runs a bakery that I know of. I'm just talkin' about a kid's book I just kinda finished up, titled Jellybean's Bakery! It's been on the backburner for a few months, but I lost my Internet access from Monday to Wednesday and it kinda forced me to be productive. -_-Also, I have no idea how to do this "publishing" thing so I have no clue if it would ever...

Probably the Millionth Doodle Dump Blog I've Done

I drove back to my dorm today after a month-long break for the holidays before the Spring 2015 semester starts up. Let me tell you, that break was not long enough.I forgot a kajillion things back at my house, I'm already homesick, and there's a million and one things I have to do before this upcoming week is even over. Naturally, I'm not a happy camper. -_____-Gotta get my head in the game this...

Culture Shock (It's Friggin' Cold up Here)

So, happy holidays, first of all! I hope you're all safe and warm and all that good stuff. I can't even believe Christmas is in three freakin' days. I also kinda can't believe I'm where I am for the holidays - me and my family are in New York, since everybody else on my dad's side of the family lives up here. (Yeah, we're oddballs. The accents up here are throwin' me off.)And speaking of being...

New Stories and the Search for Car Antlers

Welp, I finally finished a little short story novella-type thing I've been dragging my feet with for the past few months. And it's not original content, it's a spinoff of Generation Why Bother, but it's a different direction.To sum it up, it's basically a collection of anecdotes told from Oshie's point of view about him growing up with his dad, losing his mom, and touching on other stuff that just...

The Semester Is Over, Thank God

I've been waiting for this since, like, the first week of the semester.I can't really put into words how crappy this semester was, schoolwork-wise. Everything else was pretty okay but there was crap coming at me from all directions, from all classes. Whew!I ended up getting an 85 on my first final for Digital Imaging Fundamentals, which was a lot better than I thought I'd do. Still waiting on the...

Meh

Today was a thorough "meh."Started off decent. It's my last day of regular classes for the semester, and Monday's generally aren't that terrible. My art history professor, of course, tried to pile on some new material, but thankfully she stopped before my will to go on was completely destroyed. For some reason, when I woke up yesterday morning, my back was killing me, and today it's worse.I dunno...

Concert Experiences

So this past Friday, I saw Say Anything again (I saw 'em once before this summer), and it was totally nuts. Long story short, I don't seem to like Saves the Day as much as I did in tenth grade, and I fell on my arse in the pit and saw my life flash before my eyes. XDI guess it's kind of weird that I draw so much inspiration from music, yet I can't play any instruments and I've only been to a few...

Off-Topic Rambles | Rec List

So, first and foremost, hi. I feel weird posting a journal after a week of not blogging, but I haven't been all there lately. o_O I doubt anybody pays close enough attention to notice anyway, haha. I went a few years without blogging anything here and then for the past few months I've gotten back into the swing of things. This week has been nuts, though.I have to program an "app" by the 25th in...

It's Halloween and I'm Stuck Studying for an Art History Test

Just like the title says, I have nothing going on today. XD I went to class as usual, and I was one of the only people dressed up...granted, my costume was lackluster (I went as a Sim and just had a headband with a Plumb-bob taped to it), but I feel like every year, less and less people my age dress up.Probably because I'm in college. Probably also because I'm practically twelve, but I digress!I...

Classic Lolcats (And the Pointless Tangent That Leads to It) | Candy Bowl Still Open

My candy bowl is still a-go! I'm all caught up!So, I am a GENIUS and last night I decided it would be a good idea to "organize" my stupid Photobucket account. (That's sarcasm, by the way. I'm a moron. You'll find out why if you don't already know it.)Apparently, if you move your pictures into folders, that invalidates all of the links where you've linked the photos, and that little box that says...
