It's far too easy to get mired in writing short stories. Four years ago, when I took a short story writing class, I was the one person who couldn't get the concept of what a "short story" was - I was a novel person, in for the long run. Now it's the other way around. There are still two more ideas in my head for Potterverse one-shots (hopefully ( Read more... )

LJ says I updated 2 days ago, yet I could swear that it was only yesterday. Once again, I've fallen into a time lapse (or memory lapse, as I get those often enough). I will blame the marking, which is so far very dull. Essays on Northanger Abbey, my least favourite Austen novel, Pamela, and The Female Quixote are hardly of epic nature ( Read more... )

It's been a long time since I last updated, and I'm very sorry for not responding to the people who last commented. Life has been pretty crazy this last month with work, attempting to take part in "extracurricular activities", and every spare moment spent on writing. But finally, I've hit a very short lull before my last bout of essay marking. ( Read more... )

It's been a long time since I posted anything about writing stuff, even though I have actually been writing.

I've finally posted the first bit of the rewrite of "The Fires Within", making a story that seems to have potential for becoming decent. Shadows and Dust (PG-13) is darker than its original, which I like better. The main character is less ( Read more... )

Harry Potter is Dead! (PG-13) has been posted.

Or rather, just the prologue has. Will finish the first chapter soon.

Thanks for all your support on the last post! I really appreciated it. ^_^

I needed a laugh, so I've decided to go ahead with writing another murder mystery, this time set in the Trio era. Obviously it's going to be AU. One can't just kill off Harry Potter at a random moment in his school life without it being a little shady on the canon-ness ( Read more... )

Why is it so cursed hard to finish a story? I know that I have attachment issues, but to stories?! Even though the ending is often the first thing I plan in a story, they're still difficult to write, more because I lose the momentum than anything else.

Finally I managed to complete Eleanor Digby (PG-13) and make it work the way I wanted, but ( Read more... )

Two of five essays completed, and the others are WIP. *crosses fingers*

And between all of them, I managed to update both Eleanor Digby and The Fires Within, as well as make a new banner for the latter.

Yes, you see, there's a timeturner stowed in my desk.... =P
