So it took me a week, and is almost 10,000 words long, but I finally finished The Rose and The Thorns. This is what happens when my desire to write a Hizaki school girl fic meets up with my desire to write an Incest fic and my brain goes "Good idea" and not "Are you sure? That seems risky. Neither are propular, you know nobody will want to read that." So yeah, I'm half convinced nobody will want to read my fic. But write for myself, that's my new motto and that's what I did.
Hopefully tomorrow I can get a chapter of Curses and Bedsheets out before my friend comes over for the weekend. It all depends on if I find time, not motiviation, to write. So fingers crossed everyone!
The good news for everyone is that "No Man's Sky", an awesome looking game, currently costs £50, double what I am willing to pay for it as I value it personally at around £20. I'm a used game kind of gamer. Very few games are worth the insane price tags attached to them. I actually strongly believe that the love of PC gaming comes from just how insane the consoles are priced. Obviously some games are much better on PC, but so many PC games would have worked better if there was something like steam built into the consoles.
So here I am sulking that I can't play a game, abusing my keyboard as usual with the insane amount of typing I do. I never understood the love of tablets, but then I realised that most people don't use the keyboard that much. Writer's are a special breed aren't they? Which brings me onto something: Why do so many websites suggest that good presents for writers are notebooks and pens? Some writer's use them, but I have never written a fanfic on paper except out of pure necessity. It's slow, painful after awhile and then you have to squint at your own handwriting, usually written in a moving car, to even read it. That's my experience. I do have a notepad by my computer, squibbled with notes from games, what I want in curses and bedsheets, recipies and the like. But it's a cheap notepad, I'd never use a nice one for such things. Maybe I'm unique in that way? Buy me a nice notepad and it sits unused, two cherished to ever be destroyed by actually writing in it!
So good gifts for writers? Novelty items about writing I guess, or better yet, something relating to one of their other interests. But again, that might just be me.
