That's so awesome about the review :D Man, I don't even know which story that is, for shame. I was like, "Yaay, Blitz! *sits patiently, waiting for next chapter* *is slow enough to not realise there's others to read meanwhile*" *shakes head* It's definitely frustrating to have all those ideas for precisely the wrong story ^^; Is the one you're not ready to post yet Claustrophobia?? BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE MORE OF THAT
( ... )
How did you guess!? It's totally Claustro. I made some decisions about that one too as far as how it's written. The first-person present just isn't working for me, so I'm gonna go back through and change it to past-tense. I'm far more comfortable in that arena and if I ever want this story to get finished I'm gonna have to be comfortable while writing it. I'll hopefully be able to show you chapter three sometime tonight or tomorrow

Haha, I've been thinking about that story on and off for ages, wondering how it was going. Definitely a good idea to switch to the tense which is most comfortable/familiar - otherwise you spend half your time just editing that side of things, instead of focusing on the story itself. I seriously look forward to seeing the new chapter! It's been aaaaaaages since I read it, and of course, the copies of the chapters I had saved are long gone from the compy death
( ... )
Yeah, it's called By proxy, and I find it...very interesting. I don't know. I like writing about occurrences that aren't often written about...and I just have random ideas that pop out sometimes.
And it's never too late to form a contingency plan! Unless of course the first plan has already failed and you're stuck, but even then, you can improvise, and I consider improvisation a contingency plan! :D
Yah! It prolly won't get started for a while yet because I'm still working out what I wanna do with it, but so far I've got war orphans struggling to survive in what's left of the city where they all used to live, government experiments that will awaken hidden potential and...kids with cool powers...because powers are cool. As far as an actual plot is concerned however...yeeeeeah, still working on that ^^;
I've got time tho, and of course, Unseen Eyes to finish. Getting close.
I think you can do it. You work relatively well under stress, from what I understand. And failing that... you'll deal. You always land on your feet.
You and I have opposite problems when it comes to writing write now. You're hyper-inspired, I'm suffering from a lack of inspiration. (At least I've got an artz project to help me out in the meantime.) It doesn't help me that I've got all that stress at work right now, either.
Plus, a lot of my writing ability is being poured into roleplays. >_> I've got a good one working right now, high fantasy, where Charlie is meant to be the GM, and he's running the game for Tandryn.
Awesome! I'm actually plotting a sort of urban fantasy/not-quite sci-fi thing which should be fun...but I actually really need to not write it...which is a little annoying, because my brain keeps plotting for it...
Wish I could hand over some of these plot bunnies so that they could take the shape of things that you want to write or some junk...

also I admire/envy your contingency plans (I'm in that unhealthy state of mind right now where I need things to go one way and one way only >_>)
