The me that writes...

Jan 01, 2029 09:52

Hello and welcome to my journal!
This is the part where I'm supposed to admit that I'm a super shy receptionist by day and a glittering social gem at night...but truth be told, I'm your average just-got-out-of-college student livin' in Vegas while trying to write a book.

Oh, to be young.

GAH I'm in LOVE with all of your work! I just got a livejournal, so I was hoping you wouldn't get creeped out if I friended you.

Your ff.net account inspires me so! :) Good job and keep it up.

Re: Friend? jotsalot August 21 2008, 23:11:22 UTC

No, no, not at all! I am so bad with checking my LJ account it's not even funny. I'm sorry it's taken me this long to respond.

Thank you very much for reading my writing and I am happy that you like my stories. You're a sweetheart.

<33

It's ok! i wouldn't have minded waiting forever, especally not for a zomgawesome writer like you. the creepiness is a part of me. it'll go away. i promise.

<3 hope you get lots of plot bunnies and stuff!!

Re: Friend? jotsalot August 21 2008, 23:20:02 UTC

0.0 *sneaks toward potted plant. pulls out camera* IT'S NOT FLATTERING IF IT'S TRUE HYUKHYUK *runs away*

one-shots are such love. i hope you'll get a chance to post it on eljay - but if you post on ff.net, i'll read it! reviewing, though.. that's another problem.

i'm blinded by the visual. really. <333

Re: Friend? jotsalot August 22 2008, 02:16:23 UTC

Re: Friend? jotsalot March 9 2009, 14:57:43 UTC

That's because your story is bomb and you should stop being so modest about it, LOL! <3

Awe, you're sweet. It felt like time for a change. I've been wanting to write my real stuff more than fanfiction lately (>_>) and so it just felt write to change it, haha.

Re: Friend? ttwistedtruth March 9 2009, 20:00:34 UTC

<3<3 why must you be so nice?

AND REAL STUFF?! AS IN ORIGINAL slash FICTION?! EXPLAIN.

Re: Friend? jotsalot March 9 2009, 20:42:20 UTC

Um...Well yes and no. I want to publish a trilogy that one day I can convert to a screenplay which is most definitely not slash.

I also plan though, under an alias, to write gay fiction as well. I'll probably work on both ^_^. I've actually been really attached to the idea of making Misery Business more original and sensible and trying it out for publishing. I really need to research what's already out there though, because I've never really looked to buy gay fiction or romance before. But if I'm going to write it, I'm not going to write plain sex stories. I want plot and substance and fantasy and excitement...yeah.

I am my own person for publishing, that's for sure. XD

I really don't think I'm good enough to get published at this point though. I need to graduate so I can dedicate myself to it.

Re: Friend? ttwistedtruth March 10 2009, 01:38:40 UTC

Ahhhh that's really amazing! I wish you the best of luck on your trilogy [what is it about?!]

I'm sure people have told you this before, but if you changed the names around and some of the other canon!naruto stuff, Misery Business could be a really believable original fiction! And it wouldn't be like those stereotypical high!school!gay fiction. :) It would have what you want - PLOT AND SUBSTANCE AND FANTASY AND sex YYEAHH!

do you want to be a writer after you graduate?

Re: Friend? jotsalot March 10 2009, 02:54:59 UTC

I think I've always wanted to be a writer but I didn't want to ruin a hobby by going to school for it, so instead I went for animation which has been killing me softly, haha. But really, I have learned so much about film that I have found a new love for what they call pre-visualization, which would basically make me the type of person who can communicate to the different groups of a production team ( ... )

Re: Friend? ttwistedtruth March 10 2009, 20:27:17 UTC

I.. I THINK I LOVE IT TOO! <3 I hope I'll get to read some of it whenever you've gotten the rough draft down. AND THE END OF YOUR EPIC TRILOGY THAT IS MLC! Heheh, no pressure or anything.

So I'm guessing that you're majoring in something like film? That is super neat! Are you also doing something in English or is writing strictly a hobby? I have a friend in NYU who's majoring in film and English and it reminded me of you, haha.

Animation isn't my thing, but I've directed a movie for my Spanish class before and let me tell you - the whole experience was incredibly intense. I can totally relate to your way of thinking! EVERYTHING has to be visually thought out and planned - the lights, the facial expressions/emotions, the slightest movements... I literally had to move everyone into a specific position and make them do this, say that.. Does that sound anything like pre-visualization? AHHHHHHHH your future career sounds so amazing! I wish you the best of luck in achieving your goals ( ... )

Re: Friend? jotsalot March 10 2009, 21:08:30 UTC

One day I'll have it written! *looks determined*

My major is media arts and animation. So...Pixar stuffs. ^_^

And haha, I would have majored in English but essays and I would be a horrible mix. I really really hate writing them. With a burning passion. haha.

LOL, you're experience sounds a little bit like screenplay. But hopefully I'll have actors that understand the script enough to be able to work with it, haha. We'll see. I have a long ways to go. XD

Thank you for being so inspiring. After I graduate I'll write, I promise. >3>
