So just when I felt like a failure on Day 1, I felt like one even more so on Day 2 due to only managing 92 words. The short stories/novels didn’t come to me as easily on this day, I only managed to write short stories/novels around the theme of “Breakups and Breakdowns” which were really me blowing off steam
Read moreAs you can see from this blog post title, I clearly failed my word limit goal, that being said I did a lot better than I thought I would. I decided the night before (Oct 31) to write the short stories with a different theme each day. The “Firsts” theme for the first day of NaNoWriMo 2017 was a fitting
Read moreSo the Pilot established the show’s premise and dealt with the fallout of the IVF scandal on the three sisters, shortly after they all met. This episode dealt with the fallout on some of the girls’ family members, as well as their developing relationships, getting off to a great start by picking up where the viewers were left off–the girls’
Read moreWell here we are again, NaNoWriMo eve! Tomorrow is the start of National Novel Writing Month, this year will mark my second go at it. Last year I decided to try it for the first time to challenge myself as a writer, and to finally write the story that I have had planned out in my head for about a
Read moreSo after much promotion, Sisters finally premiered last night. The job of a pilot is to establish a show’s premise and characters and set up story arcs for the season. This pilot managed to accomplish this beautifully. What I didn’t expect was the chapter-like introduction to the three sisters: Julia (Maria Angelico), Roxy (Lucy Durack) and Edie (Antonia Prebble). It
Read moreWhile it’s clear as day that the final two episodes of the second season of The Wrong Girl were aired on the same night so Sisters could premiere tomorrow, since they were aired at once I’m going to review both episodes in this singular post. I felt that episode 9 wasn’t that memorable however it was a good lead into
Read moreTo review this season’s finale, I read my review of last season’s finale to give me something to go off. For those that don’t remember, last season’s finale focused on Tugger’s investigation into Joey’s death, Penny leaving for a new job, Matt leaving Charlie, Meryl campaigning to become Whyhope’s mayor, Nora replacing Penny, and Hugh and Penny almost declaring they
Read moreIn all honesty this episode wasn’t particularly memorable, it was clearly a filler to lead into the upcoming penultimate and finale episodes. In the opening seconds I thought that myself and the other viewers were experiencing something rare—-the episode picking up where it left off last week or starting in real time. However it was not meant to be, with
Read moreWell this episode was a rollercoaster. I found the A story of Hugh’s “Las Vegas” wife, Harriet (Genevieve Hegney), coming to Whyhope was a great distraction from the kidney transplant. However I also felt it was another forced spanner in the works for Hugh and Penny’s “non-relationship”. I felt absolutely frustrated when Hugh gave into temptation with Harriet, in fact
Read moreWell what we or I thought was inevitable finally happened…Lily and Jack’s relationship has ended. While the writers have hinted at the incompatibility between Lily and Jack and the cracks in their relationship throughout the season, they have done this slowly and with subtlety, but in this episode they completely abandoned this writing technique, choosing to bring the relationship down
