making a list

Jan 08, 2015 14:04

I like lists. They are neat and organized, makes you feel like you will get something done. But then you have to do things and check them off and remember where you put the list ( Read more... )

pip, writing ideas, home life, fanart

1. Lists, notes, outlines, and titles--all because of me?? *Does a flap-happy dance*

2. I can not wait to read this series you are working on!

3. Btw, I re-read "Set the Time" again the other day for like the hundredth time--still one of my all time faves!

4. Fan art is an excellent way to avoid writing. I like to think of it as writing stories with images rather than words. That counts, right?

5. Hello--you've combined all my favorite Rogan moments and a smokin' hot Logan and Marie here!

1. Well, at least it makes some one happy. ;) Not sure if my outlines would pass muster in a English class, but it is way more than I usually do. I'm just anxious, this isn't my style of writing and I'm kind of excited and don't want it to fall by the wayside.

2. Hopefully it won't take me as long as everything else.

3. Thanks! *looks at sequel to "Set the Time", hides it behind back*

4. You are right! I'm so visual anyway.

5. *blushes* Thank you!

O.m.g. A possible sequel??? Aahh! That's awesome! :D

I'm so excited that I broke the list formation! Ahem.

1. How cool that you are doing something outside of your usual style of writing. Can't wait to see what you've written.

2. I'm always so impressed by how you and other authors are able to write these amazing stories in a relatively short period of time. Remember how I said that I ought to write some shorter stories for a little practice before diving into that DOFP idea I had? Yeah, I've been working on one story since then. That was weeks ago, and I only have 9 pages to show for it. Gah!

3. *More happy dancing* What's that you have behind your back there? :)

4. I am more of a visual person, too. I am definitely out of my element when it comes to writing. Thus we have the aforementioned 9 measly pages of a story that I've been working on for weeks.

5. I think I need to make some fan art to avoid writing. ;)

Break list formation all you want, I'm good with it.

1. It's good to step out of your comfort zone once in a while. I just hope that I don't fall back into old habits and drop it for a decade before I pick it back up.

2. Set the Time, Something to talk about, and a couple others sat around for years before I completed them. I'm far from a fast writer. It took me months to do the final edit on Something to Talk About. Nine pages in two weeks is speedy to me. musesfool, Victoria P. in the WRFA, talks about the struggles of writing all the time and she has a great rate of output ( ... )

1. I hope I can complete something before a decade is up!

2. That makes me feel better to know that I'm not alone in my writing struggles. That is a really cool idea to write for a challenge; I think that would push me to just do it already instead of over thinking.

3. Lol!

4. YES! That is me 100%. And that is exactly what is holding me up from progressing with this story; I'm worried that it won't make sense how I got from point A to point B. So I'm trying to make sure all the blanks are filled in, and that in turn is making me draw a blank. :)

5. Coming right up! Posting something right now...

1. You can do it! *looks back up* Say, unless your font is huge, 9 typed pages is a story.

2. Some of my favorite authors have admitted to some real struggles or a handful of abandoned fics.

4. Have someone take a look at it and give you some idea if you are making sense. If you want I can take a look at it, but I suck at grammar so just the big picture type thing.

5. You do a wonderful job of delivering fanart.

I would love it if you would take a look! Just let me add a couple of things and then I will send it your way. How would I go about sending it to you? Does LJ allow you to send documents?

Thanks so much! Glad you like the fanart, too. :)

You can send it to me at cschoolgirl@gmail.com You can do an attachment that way, because I have no idea how much lj allows.

Ok, I will do that. Sorry it's taking me so long; RL is kicking my ass right now!

Funny how RL has a way of doing that. Take your time.
