Short story/drabble plus books

Well I joined lj_scribe and the prompt for this week was "living the dream." This is what I came up with where I was using the prompt metaphorically and no this is not based off anything real lol. It's just out of my messed up head.

Also, I dedicate this to Carol cianthecat because she has so much faith in my writing ( Read more... )

books, writing

I really, really liked this, very well-written.
You should definitely believe in your writing!

omg thank you so much for telling me this!

I am working on two novels too but as I have no life they are moving along at a snails pace.

You're very welcome!
I sympathize, I haven't written anything in my own novel in the past three months,I'm so busy I can't even work on my fanfics... Hopefully this summer will be more quiet.

Still, keep believing (i don't know if that's english )! =)

Love your icon!

I work on fan fics and poetry coz otherwise I would go insane but I don't think there's much hope of me writing any more novel until I'm back in Oz in August after Oxford and even then it is doubtful it will come along fast...

What is your novel about?

You're a very good writer. Keep it coming ;)

And you're reading Gaiman, huh? Are you doing what I did, reading it as preparation and research for the upcoming ep, or did you just feel like reading a book by him? :)

I myself am currebtly reading American Gods, a few chapters in so far, really rather like it. ^^

Thanks :)

I did it for research :P

SO far I have read The problem of Susan, most of Smpoke and Mirrors, The graveyard book and Anansi Boys. Pretty good effort seeings as his ep is tonight!

How is American Gods?

Haha, I figured, or it'd have a very welltimed coincidence *grins* And yeah, it is, you've been a busy girl ^^ I only managed two books during the week between 6x03 and the Gaiman ep, but I blame that on the library being hopelessly behind *shakes head*

Oh, AG is so far really good. It's odd and strange, and I don't find it laugh-out-loud funny, but then it don't need to be. It's sort of quietly amusing, while being quite fascinating and I keep getting wanting to read more when I have to put it down. So yeah. It's good. ^^

Was Anansi Boys good? I'm thinking of reading that one next. :)
