Chance encounters and a new direction

Jul 24, 2012 15:36


It’s funny how one interesting idea, left to fester in your brain, can turn into an exciting new direction. Not altogether the BEST time to have found the inspiration I needed, the idea I needed, to bring back the joy of blogging. But, alas, I will not let the feeling pass. For starters by posting about it here to lock in and commit myself to what ( Read more... )

This is so odd, I was having this same thought process just yesterday!
What you said really does make alot of sense, and I'm fairly certain that everyone in fandom, any fandom really can relate to this. Chance encounters, I mean some of the greatest people I've met have been simply chance, like 'hey we both love shige, let's bond!'

That's a great idea, the last time I did a give-a-way I basically just made a quick post, and offered them, but the extra little task would have been fun! it gives a bit more insight into a person.

Good luck with your tickets!

^^ it's interesting isn't it., its even more by chance through fandom that we meet people yet we have more and more of them. Haha and isn't that the same reason we met? haha

And yeah I'm kinda excited about the giveaway thing ^^ I love finding out things about people. People are intriguing. I hope you'd participate once I start ^^

And thanks ^^

Just randomly. I happened across one of your old fics last night, got completely into it and typical, the one that I find is your only incomplete chaptered fic hahaha fail I always seem to be able to find them :P but in saying that, I love your writing ^^ I knew I had read one or two of your works before but couldn't really remember. ^^

Exactly! lol very true.

That'll be really interesting, if I ever end up with extra's for whatever reason I'll probably try the same thing. No doubt, I probably will ;D

awwwww sorry about that, this is exactly why I don't usually start multi-chaptered fics, I usually lose inspiration for it after a while. Not to worry though, it's been I think nearly a year, but I've still got that chapter in the works. I'm just really slow >.<
But I'm so glad you liked any of them :3

haha liked them? LOL as of yesterday I have read ALL of your oneshots haha will have to start on NEWS vs KAT-TUN soon too :P haha
I love your characterisation ^^ Looking forward to that next chapter, no matter how long it takes. I'm pretty sure I would be the same If I could write and started writing multi-chaps, I tend to get distracted in life :P

I was feeling all sentimental and touched and you chose to end this entry with this:
MAY FLUFF MONSTERS INVADE YOUR SOUL!!!!!!!

HAHA how can I not love you?:))

But seriously, I am surprised at how you look at the matter. For some, the giveaway contest was just a chance but you told the story and made it into an "oppotunity". Makes me happier and proud-er (is that even a word?) of belonging in the same fandom as yours ♥

and still praying for your NEWS tickets!!!^^

Random encounters, like finding we share a love for Shige while talking on an Arashi forum? :)

This is a great and well thought out idea... and a great way to connect and network.. and you are only lame if by lame you mean totally epic! <3

Can't wait to see how this works out ^^

You know I have never sought out a NEWS forum.... just talked to NEWS fans on arashi forums hahaha so useless :P

though I haven't visited an arashi forum in forever either :P
I hope you'll participate in my giveaways ^^ shige will be next month YAY~!

I was on one, and it died.. I was very very sad about that :( I really enjoyed being there.. its actually BECAUSE of that forum that I finally became an Arashi fan XDDD

I've not been back in a while. I should. I have messages in my blog and inbox lol

I will :) I just need to pay attention to your post to make sure I don't miss it ^^ YAY SHIGE!
