Appropriate Icon For An Appropriate Era
So, I wasn't sure if/when I was ever gonna put anything on my LJ about this whole thing with Pendant, mainly because I've kind of hashed it over a LOT in multiple forums. It really just boils down to this for me, and this is typically my train of thought every day:
1. It sucks.
2. It sucks a lot.
3. I still have Avalon, so I need to focus on doing that, because now suddenly I went from being the redheaded stepchild show that I didn't think anyone cared about aaaand now - PRESSURE.
4. I should put that casting call up for Avalon, because it would help get some voices in gear. (esp since I'm having to cast a METRIC TON of people for season 4 and, oh yeah, that script is supposed to have gone out already. I should do that, too)
5. I have an AD, so that's awesome! And she's awesome, and I'm excited to have the help!
6. I have all these lines to reco...... oh.
7. Wallow about not playing Cassie for a while. Cry a lot.
8. Kris pulls me out of it by pointing out that to people, I'm their first Cassie and I will always be Cassie to them. I am skeptical, but eventually it cheers me up.
9. People on the Internet are spiteful, cruel, and clearly don't get that behind the banner that is Pendant Productions are around a hundred people who actively contribute to the creation of our work in some way, shape, or form, and that by accusing us of doing things we didn't do and/or speculating, it hurts the people as well as the company. Or maybe that's what they want.
10. *Blocks people from Facebook, locks Twitter feed*
11. Kris and I have an original we should be working on!
12. *toodles on her Supernatural/Smallville crossover fic for a little while*
13. I should be writing.
14. Man, I'm so bummed our fan show waited 3 years to get off the ground, only for this to happen.
15. *Wallows more about the lack of voice work* Six years of voices gone, and I don't want to let go of Cassie. I can let go of all the others, but how am I supposed to let go of her? She's everything I'm not, and she was me getting to play at being pretty, cute, strong, sexy, sassy, and sooo many other things I'm not.
16. I need to write something to make me feel better.
17. *Toodles on fanfic*
So, yeah. That's about how the last two days have gone for me. That being said, I don't want to wallow, I don't want to have some long dissertation on how I feel, but I will say this: Avalon is going to be AMAZING. The sequel feature to Avalon isn't backburnered, it's now fast-tracked in my head so I keep this franchise rolling long as I can, and our feature that just got pitched/greenlit is going to rock. It's something different for me, so I'm excited. It's pretty much all Kris's idea, too, so I'm excited that you folks will get to hear her original works!
Also... I'm not SAYING what our fan show was, but... the icon. Just... that's all I'm saying.
