Yeah...okay...THE Story Progress List (Updated)

[calvi_sama]

No, I have not been in hibernation, although that would be positively lovely...*sigh*.  It has occurred to me, several times, that I've been, well dormant-appearing as far as my writing, and I am staring with terror into the very pit that has claimed my creativity so many times in the past: procrastination and my damned propensity to get devilishly

*eeks* Fifty stories!! *is in awe* And here I thought I was one of the few with an overactive imagination, constantly throwing ideas at me and daring me to write them down...before it "conveniently" forgets them =P!

I've read several of yours, I discovered your Attraction collection I think on FF.net? *processing info*...anyway, it's uh...First Class Club *picks tongue up off the floor and puts back in mouth*...wow..., and some others (Apart With You springs to mind right off)...where was I goin' with this...AH! ENCOURAGEMENT!! I LOVE your stuff, and you FLOOR me with how fast you crank 'em out. How do you DO that?? It seems like all I can do sometime is just stare at the screen and type t-h-e. *huffs* Bleh, moving on...

Yeppers! That cute blondie is mine-mine-mine *snuggies her baby* president of my fan club (which is sadly very small) and personal teddy bear. Do you have a cat(s)? Seems like all good writers have cats ;) *fidgets and feels like a poser*

Yikes! That was a long post...sorry 'bout that, but I'm a bit star-struck and that tends to trigger the verbal diarrhea *laughs and prays you don't get a visual* XD

Hahahaha, my problem is that I have too many friends throwing their insane ideas at me. X)

Awww, glad to hear you liked them (and Apart With You, it's definitely one of my favs too)! And thanks for the encouragement, I can always use more of that.^^

Fast? FAST? I consider myself a slug. XD I'm pretty much a perfectionist and I can sit over a drabble for hours, tweaking words and stuff... but then again, I usually write something every day, even if just a tiny one. And music, music is my main source of inspiration. <3

Your cat is so amazingly beautiful! And yeah, I do have a cat, you can see him in my icon. Nowhere near as pretty as yours, though. Given my severe allergy to cat fur he doesn't get to be around me much, sadly. On the other hand, I have a dog too. But I agree, most good writers seem to have cats!

Star-struck? *checks sky* It's pretty cloudy here...

[calvi_sama]

Thank you! That furry turd knows he's sexy and can get away with MURDER and I would just gush at him. It would figure that I'd be ruled by a soft-haired blond with big green/gold eyes! =p. If that little gray and white fellow in your avatar is your baby, he's adorable! *loves me some kitties* I, too, have a dog, who is NOT thrilled about living in a house with three cats, poor girl.

And yes, FAST! But rest assured, you're not the only perfectionist. I tend to re-read my stuff so many times that by the time I post them I just about can't stand them anymore! And then after I post I read through them and have to tweak it a little more, so it is a conscious effort to NOT re-visit my stuff too often *winces*.

It's interesting how music influences our writing isn't it? It sure does affect my writing and then of course there is the sweet sound of silence that can spur on some *ahem*, interesting scenes...or three *coughs*.

I'll keep encouraging as long as you need and/or want it 'cause you gots talent, chica!! *hugs*

Finally - some of the brightest stars shine the most brilliant in a cloudy sky. I think you know what I meant when I said "star-struck" my dear! XD

[sphinxofthenile]

Oh, they all know they are kings of the universe... sometimes it really seems we actually are too stupid to realise we live as slaves to a species with higher intelligence. XD yep, that is my baby and he indeed gets away with murder. How the hell did he end up bringing a dead sparrow into the house I will never understand. And your poor dog! Mine has to put up with one, but even that is too much sometimes... XD

Gawd, don't remind me. I read my stuff so often before posting that I can practically recite them by the time I decide they can be shared. (Unless they are quick drabble thingies with close deadlines.) That's one reason why I need to have everything beta read - I don't notice mistakes after a while.

Music is my lifeblood, I swear I feed off of music like nothing else. Give me the right song at the right time and I'm unstoppable... (20k threesome WIP *cough*) Silence is sometimes needed though, and yeah... usually causes interesting things to happen. ;P

Thank you love *hugs* God knows I'll need encouragement once I get down to working on my multichapters. I'm pretty afraid of them at the moment... And star-struck just makes me feel like I sparkle and need to hide it too important. XD *hugs*
