a little update about nothing in particularYou'll probably get a better idea of what I'm up to by reading that; LJ is mostly reserved for whinging and publicising at the moment, I'm afraid. Editing is still driving me nuts. I don't think I've rewritten this bit sufficiently, and it is one of life's irritating paradoxes that the people ( Read more... )

what is it you're editing, anyway? i can empathise with having to take a sledgehammer to it, but i've been wondering what it is--

(wait, wait, is "c." me or. god i pick the worst fucking names, disregard if i'm being stupid here)

As Simple As Hunger, the "man fucks giant scorpion" story. It's actually better by far than most things I've written, I just appear to write like a five year old with a head injury.

YES. YOU. BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER TO CALL YOU COSIMA OR C. OR AL OR ANY OF YOUR OTHER NINE MILLION NAMES.

OH I HAVE HEARD OF THAT ONE. read... something... set in the verse and mostly just chided you for not accenting alacrán, i think? wow i'm an asshole, hello.

I WOULD BE ENTIRELY INTERESTED IN NITPICKING IT IF YOU PROMISE YOU WILL NOT HATE ME FOREVER WHICH SEEMS TO BE WHAT I AM GENERALLY AFRAID OF. i'm out of school soon anyway. (and then doing exams and a trek around the US but blargleblargle whatever)

NAMES ARE STUPID I AM ALSO STUPID and prone to assuming you know people a lot more useful than me who happen to share my name, honestly? but if you want me to go over it with random writing implements... um, when would you need it by/how useless would i be?

wait wait shit that's presumptuous fuck um. hi del. my brain is eating itself. how are you?

Hah see there that's why I need you, I remembered to accent El Miriápodo on this edit but not El Alacrán.

I am not going to hate you forever the entire point of editors is to nitpick I will merely ignore things which are not relevant rather than throwing a OH MY GOD C IS SO MEAN fit.

Also I haven't finished *my* round of edits yet (oh boy I have barely started) so I don't know when I'd be passing it on to you and ergo when to expect it back but about a month to edit seems... fair?
