Nuanc's Profile

nuanc (nuancy): 58, Female
CA

Name or Pseudonym:: nuanc

About Me:: I write novels every November and throughout the rest of the year either finish, re-write or edit them along with writing poetry and short stories. I also publish, edit and write a webzine called The Practically Creative Quarter which has its own ning network: Being Practically Creative. We need YOU over there!

My other creative interests are painting (or any other kind of art), photography (I'm "nuanc" on flickr), quilting, and piling up bits of raw materials to use at some future point in time for some yet-to-be-determined brilliant crafts projects. I am a retired psychiatric nurse, got married for the second time six years ago and have two grown sons and a two-year-old granddaughter.

The Learning Curve

Last post I was speaking of being immersed in SL so I thought I’d post this photo of Aplomb inappropriately dressed in a pool owned by one of my neighbours. The outfit is one of my early designs. It needs work but I still like it. I was totally caught off guard by how [...]

What would you do with a second life?

The last post was about my tentative toe-pokes into Second Life. Then I disappeared (blog-wise) for over two months. From wading to immersion. Well…that’s how it goes, right? From my initial apathy to the secondary intrigue to a subsequent and prolonged love-hate relationship, sometime in late March it all became addictive, all-consuming, and just fun. I [...]

Second Thoughts in Second Life

Aplomb by a waterfall In January, I did an article for The PCQ on Beth Felice who, as Annie Octavia, owns and operates a beautiful art gallery on Second Life called Gallerie Octaviana. In order to see for myself what it was about (she’s been kind enough to include some of my work in two [...]

Photo Play

Time for Sarcastic Mom’s Weekly Winners again. Where’d the week go? This we we had Valentine’s Day and very cold weather so the photos reflect those things (I barely went out of the house). Plus a portrait of one of the dogs. Catching Flakes focused on the snowflakes, not the trees! Yellow Rose of Nova Scotia Frosty [...]

Hi Smiler, I'm not expert on the technical side of blogging but am wondering if you can create pages---distinct from the everyday, sequential posts---with Blogger? That would be a solution...where... Read More »

My Webzine and Blog

Hi,
I have a webzine/blog called The Practically Creative Quarter that you might like. It's purpose is to "explore the creative process, increase creative productivity and enjoy the creative life."

Chronicled and Illustrated is my personal blog. This month it's all about NaNoWriMo and the writing process. Since this is my sixth year doing Nano, and I've accrued a bit of experience, I've started doing little *Tips from Nuanc* graphics for my blog posts. I also post them to flickr and the nanowrimo group there. As you'll see, I don't take myself or my tips very seriously.

Being Practically Creative

I haven't been around or even been blogging since early December. I think that doing it everyday in November thing took a lot out of me! I was doing NaNoWriMo as well, so yeah, November was a blur. I always find I can get more done when I have more deadlines. In that way, January was a creative bust. Oh well. I did do one thing. I started my own Ning network. Check it out: Being Practically Creative. It's an addition to my webzine,…
