But cut, because its likely to bore the snot out of you.
So, just to prove- among other things- that I'm not in fact dead, I figured I'd post about stuff I'm doing. Like writing. Cold Comfort, to be exact. No, I haven't forgotten about it. Been struggling with it, in fact- but I finally figured out (for the most part) what I'm doing with these two chapters that didn't want to cooperate with me (I hate it when I know what I want to do, but can't get it written...), so after a major revision (overhauled the format) I have a basic outline on one part, and the other part mostly done; SO, as soon as I finish out the Luffy bit (he's been difficult with me, but not as bad as some furry doctors I can name...) and get someone to beta it so I don't sound like more of an ass (Stacy, Nikki- this will more than likely be inflicted on you sometime soon; start watching One Piece already, what's wrong with you? ^_~) I'll be getting something up soon. I'm going to tentatively declare, before the end of the month. Watch me prove myself wrong.
In all honestly, I’m kind of glad it took me this long, because I’ve gotten a better grip on Robin since I started, and don’t feel I’ll butcher her completely, now. Butcher her, certainly, but not to such an atrocious level as I’d have done originally. Also, I’ve got a better grip on the injuries poor, poor Sanji is going to be inflicted with. Yes, I research. (Though you may not be able to tell this when reading… ¬_¬;)
Also- another smaller story has popped into mind, and I'm trying to give it just enough attention for it not to die, while focusing on the former... which is hard. But I'm doing it. There’s a multitude of ‘got a bit written, but its on the back burner’ in my documents, too, since I refuse to post anything else until I actually get on the ball with the first one.
On a side note- a portion of the reason I've had trouble lately, is that the story that comes after (yes, I've got a plot...) has been vying for attention, so I've gotten little chunks of that done, between not doing anything on the other. I know, I'm horrible, and I can't do anything in a proper order or manner, but that's always been a weakness of mine, and I've learned if I don’t write it while it's in my head, I'll loose it forever. Thus, I say 'soon, I'm trying here, I really am...' and hope not everyone has given it as lost. ^_~
