Pavane in Pearl and Emerald
Word Count: 7759
I started out the morning playing with the database I'm building with MySQL to hold all my writing notes instead of doing any actual writing. I had plugged in pretty much everything on the Black Flag history page into the “Events” table last night, when I was feeling too brain dead to do anything interesting, and then I had started trying to put together some PHP so I could turn the information back into a webpage again, only that had proved a little more than I could handle in that state. So I spent most of this morning gleefully creating a sample history webpage, and filling it with various combinations of 'event' data at the change of a couple lines of code. (Birthdays in, birthday's out, everything associated with any actual stories, out, story start and end dates back in, etc.) That was fun. I'm going to do a people page next, and then I'll see if I can get it set up so that I can see all the people, and anyone else would only be able to see the people born before the first story starts (bwahaha!). 🙂
My next major data entry job will probably be the Cantata glossary. The better shape I get my Ialfa notes into the better it will be for Pavane. I spend way too much time looking stuff up, when I should be writing.
