SO LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY DA- no, more F&M stuff.
Oh man, guys, I actually finished Fen's 100 (91) questions! That's kind of awesome, right?!?
Well, by finished I meant I got to the end. There's a few questions I want to revisit (like personal appearance) and tweak a bit, but I still actually did it all! And almost all today (I did like the first 2 and a half yesterday)!
I'm actually kind of super proud. I want to bring these characters to life so badly, and this is just a great way for me to get to know a bit more about them. I'm ALSO going to do a small write up that's separate from the questionaire for each of the four main characters for middle school (there will be more in high school, but these 4 will be the middle school main cast), but that's for the future.
I'm going to try and do Max's tomorrow and then tweak them both Sunday. And then…. post them and ask for thoughts (so scary).
So confession time, guys. I've always wanted to be just a teensy bit popular. I always wanted to make a web comic (and tried several times with several artists all of which have bailed on the thing p_q), and have just a small following. Not many people, maybe, but enough that every day I have people waiting for me to update. And now I'm kind of hoping this kind of turns into that. I'd… love for twenty people to read my stuff and look forward to my updates. It'd be so awesome, guys. So awesome. And I honestly think this is my best shot at something like that. it's a little greedy, I know, but I can't help it =( I dunno, I just don't want to make stories for only 3-5 people… And I'm honestly not entirely sure how many people I know who'd be interested in this kind of thing (I think Guin would be, but I dunno about anyone else, honestly). Which is why I want to start with 5 stories, and then post them somewhere more public. Maybe people will like them! Not many, of course, but… people. Is it so wrong to want your creations to be loved? =(
Anyway, I think my goal is to do a lot of prep work in Feb and start actually writing in March… but I dunno, maybe I'll finish my prep work early? Really all I want for prep work is fully fleshing out the main characters, getting the side characters in enough detail to make them unique/interesting and writeable, and working a teensy bit on the setting. If ALL I do is work on this, maybe it'll take like two weeks, and then I'll start writing and it will be AWESOME.
Though I do have to start with the 6-year-old story, and I've already said I'm not sure I can write them very well. But maybe because it's only -one story- It'll be more forgivable if they sound a teensy bit too old or whatever.
ANYWAY, I AM SO EXCITED YOU GUYS! And Scared. REALLY scared. I'm scared I won't succeed… and scared that I will. I'm scared because every time I've tried to write something huge, it's gone nowhere, and every time I've tried to write -this- it went nowhere even faster. I'm scared that maybe I'll write it really awesomely, and no one will read it, not even my friends. I'm SO FREAKING SCARED GUYS.
It's all probably nothing, though, but ugh I just can't shake the feeling that it won't last. And I really, really want it to.
Anyway, check back in two days for 100 (91) questions sheets! I dunno how interesting they'll be, but I think they're kind of interesting?!? At the very least they'll give you a little insight as to who these idiot kids running around in my head are. Well, insight beyond the dream fragment and followup from 5.5 years ago.
Edit an hour later: And in other news, I seem to still be under the effects of this week's on again, off again depression, bleh =| I hope I get over it soon. I'm pretty sure at this point it's not caused by anything in particular, much like my rSAD, but it's winter so I dunno what it is. Well, whatever it is, it sucks and I hope it ends soon. Guess I'll just have to read more new comics… With less teenage angst this time, I think.
