So, I always hate it when authors who I'm dying to read the next chapter by stop writing and put up lame excuses why they haven't done it yet... so...

*DEEP KOWTOW*

I'm terribly sorry I haven't posted the next chapter of AMOC yet. I really don't have any excuses, just reasons, which I hope that you'll forgive me for. This is what I was going to put ( Read more... )

status, amoc

Aww there there don't get down. I work part time and I'm stressed of course April and May hasn't been the best time for me either. First time to buy a house sounds scary too me. Everytime I think of handling big time money I break out into a cold sweat. Its actually funny that people are writing to you asking if you've continued AMOC. Its been barely a month and people are already thinking you've given up? I have fanfics that I still check and they haven't updated for nearly four years... Dedicated? You bet I am ( ... )

omg WORD on the "starving artist" thing, I mean, why do you think I'm an ~architect~?? It's sorta artsy enough to engage my creative skills, and technical enough to really be challenging, and it actually pays $$$.

My dream is to illustrate my own stories. If money was no object then I'd be a full time artist. I don't know if I'd try to create manga, that's like 100% drawing all the time, on top of writing everything too. But manga-ka have assistants to help with all the drawing, in Japan it's like a time-tested system of apprenticing under an established manga-ka to learn the ropes. Not having access to any of that, plus feeling leery about having other people draw stuff and then calling it mine... ehhh... And I actually enjoy writing. I like massaging the words into just the right form, writing when it's going well feels really natural...

i relly like you picture it's pretty,
ARCHIC
take your time, your story is too good to rush, you'll make mistakes.
i can't help but laugh though. do the people who comment kno people can read the comments? (peer pressure, peer pressure)
"please update ur story is SOMEWHAT worth reading!" lmao
gee thanks for the positive re-enforcement
they loose their integrity by opening their mouths(or well typing)
I know what your going through. I used to write storys, but with school and work (i babysit seven yr olds.....worst...job....ever) i gave up (tears) i wish i hadnt though.
keep writing, and at your own pace.
