I haven't posted in awhile, and have like three new fics I need to add but... I don't know. I used to love it here but lately it just isn't the same. Maybe I need to get more involved in communities. I'm trying out Tumblr, but while it does feed my fandom urges, it's not really interactive in the same way LJ is. I want to discuss movies and

Hi there!

I've gotten on Tumblr only for RP purposes, which is a bit more difficult than LJ/DW. Conversations are SO HARD, and I don't like it for those. It seems like most ppl seem to take the conversations off to IM or Twitter. Tumblr isn't really built to have in depth fandomy conversations. :(

I haven't really gotten around to reading much Avengers fic because my RL blew up, but I still pick at writing Inception fic and at some point in the near future I will be published! Yay! I think that's all that's new with me since last we talked. :D

Yay for real life! I think it has slowed down my fandom obsession, a bit, but I miss the talking! And yeah, Tumblr doesn't cut it for me. I found some good fics and pics and stuff, but you can't really interact with anyone. I do actually like Twitter for chatting, which LJ never quite did right, but it's not the same.

Also -- congrats on getting published! That is huge! :D

I never liked the idea of Twitter if only because I am a wordy creature and the thought of condensing things to 140 characters didn't appeal to me. :)

I'm so excited! and it's just the thing to distract me from the oral boards this weekend, which makes me a bit nervous since I won't know the results for a few more weeks. It's threesome vampire porn, so there ought to be a few readers out there for it. ;)

The 140 limit makes you creative! The inability to correct typos makes me nuts though!

OMG -- I don't even know how you'd sleep at night. I haven't grown the nerve to try my own stuff. And yes, I think you will find an audience for that, no problem! It hasn't ever been my thing, but I will read your threesome vampire porn, without a doubt! :)

[eustacia_vye28]

Yeah, I get crazed enough from FB typoes, I think the Twitter thing would drive me nuts too. :)

Distraction is a wonderful thing. I apply it liberally. As well as hefty doses of denial. lol. I'm making an author FB page and Goodreads page at the moment. Not sure where else I need to do that, and I'll start to put stuff on my LJ. I'm using a pen name so it's not as obvious to link to me professionally, if only because of my field. It changes the blank slate I'm supposed to be for patients if they know this is the sort of thing I write in my off hours. lol

I always feel bad deleting a tweet, so I never do. I just let the typo stand and look like a fool. :P

You can make a professional twitter account! It is good for advertising and things like that. And I completely understand wanting to separate them out, but please drop me a line when it releases so I can pick up a copy! It is seriously, very exciting! :)

[eustacia_vye28]

I had completely forgotten about Goodreads... I had an account on there years ago. Oops.

I suppose I should create a separate e-mail account for the pen name too, eh? SO MUCH TO THINK ABOUT. lol.

But I will definitely post something about it on my LJ. :D

[slynn6776]

Yay! :)
