There's a drumming noise inside my head that starts when you're around

This is something I've been working on for quite awhile. These two characters, selfishly, are based on actual people and actual events. I've written and rewritten it a million and one times but every time, it seems cheesy as I read. I don't have a problem with "cheesy" but it was not my intent with this particular story to go in that direction. ( Read more... )

I've been soaking up Florence like a mad person. I can't seem to get enough. <3 The best.

Lovely? You sure? I'm just not satisfied with it. There's something off about the whole thing and I just can't pinpoint what it is. It's way more sugary sweet than my normal writing, so maybe that's it?

Things are better. I just have to let the differences between my sister and I lie. It's a moot point. Other than that? Peachy. I've got 3 ideas for SPN fics that are bouncing around in my head. There's one that just won't go away but I can't seem to write it. I have it outlined but every time I write it? It falls apart. I wish I could hand the whole thing over to someone and have them write it for me. It's a good idea, I'm just not the one to do it. *argh*
I'm supposed to heading to New York next week but it's up in the air as of right now. We shall see. I'm excited about getting away but finding somewhere for my dog to go seems to be a bigger issue than I thought. *sigh*

How about you? ♥

i'm not too bad. I'm feeling a load better about being back in the UK (despite having planned my next adventure - prague, kiev and tallinn) and things friendwise are easier. I just need something to do, hence the slightly overambitious target of translating those scripts (check my latest entry) into Spanish. I'm not getting enough hours at work so I'm having to do something to keep my brain from rotting.

I've been bitten with the travelling bug since I spent all that time on the overnight train in Russia and now I just want to drop everything and travel around Europe for a few weeks. Naturally I can't afford to, but I REALLY WANT TO. D: It's in my blood now.

If I do write this fic on Sunday, like I've planned to, would you beta me please? It was you that got me into SPN fic, so I think you should be my beta :D

Oh how I know the feeling of wanting to drop everything and just travel. (Money is always the issue, isn't it? Never the lack of pure WANT) I feel stuck when I am in a place for too long. I tend to stock pile money secretly and then move. I believe I might have been a gypsy in another life or something. ;)

Brain rotting....check. That's where I am. Too much time on my hands and I need to find something to do. I feel myself rolling these SPN stories over and over in my head. I feel like if I could just WRITE them, I'd be much happier. *argh*

*squee*
OF FRICKIN' COURSE!! I'd be honored to do that for you.
*dances wildly*

I really like this :)
Your characters are likeable and realistic and you draw your readers into their life, which is always good. As far as concrit goes, the only thing I can say is there are a few grammar errors. Other than that, it's really really good :)
I know I'd be interested in reading more :)

I love it (then again I always love your writing C:). Can I say that I really want these characters to end up together? Can I say that? And, you know what would be interesting, and maybe it will help you figure out what's missing, doing this from Lo's perspective. That could help you.

But yeah, its brilliant; your brilliant. C:
