Oh yeah. You're still altogether awesome and amazing for this. *still feeling absolutely spoiled rotten* Excuse me while I go reread that oneshot for the 50th time.

I totally feel you on how your chapter is progressing. I don't understand how, which certain stories, the words just flow... and then there are those chapters where every sentence is a fight. I guess it happens to the best of us!

And, LOL. I do not think my name is spelled the way you think it's spelled. ;)

Haha, called out I am! <~~is a dork
*goes to fix name* Sorries! (honestly, for some reason I have to check your username every single time I use it - and this time I just went off memory, so you can see how well that did for me. haha. I always think of the movie though.)

And yay! I'm so glad you like that fic enough to do the re-reads. I'm always nervous about the stuff I post (especially when I'm writing for particular persons), so as long as I know you like it I am a well-pleased author ^_^

And yeah, I think all of us suffer from this every now and again. (though I feel like I'm doing it both more now and again...blarg...haha), and it sometimes amazes me the people that say they go through the same thing, so I suppose that's always rousing in one sense ^_-

Haha, no sweat. It happens - there are times I've gone ages spelling a friend's name one way before realizing I'd been doing it wrong the whole time.

And considering how similar the name is? I really need to see that movie, lol.

Strangely, as much as I love writing, it's a challenge for me more often than not. Of course, I tend to mull over what I want to write for a long time, so I think by the time I get around to putting the words down, I've rehashed it so many times I'm almost bored, lol. Lengthy multichapter fics? Probably not a good idea for me. XD Still, there's nothing quite so satisfying as finishing a difficult chapter, so it's worth it.

This. Thisthisthis! I do this to the point it's absurd! (which is one of the reasons the longer this fic goes on the longer it takes each chapter to get out.) But I'm an insomniac so what I do in the couple hours it takes me to fall asleep is mull over story ideas, play out different scenes (original, movies, fanfic, anything interesting or fun to rehash) over and over and over. Le sigh. I really need to just sit down and write. ^_-

And Amelie? An utterly adorable movie. You should see ^_^
So what is your name based off of then?

My progress this week: Monday - 2 lines; Tuesday - 3 paragraphs; Wednesday - 1 paragraph; Thursday - 2 paragraphs; Friday - nada. I mean seriously, how absurd is this?

Absurd? LOL, That's how almost all of my updates go...

Haha. Good to know I'm not alone in this ^_-
(ah, for the sharing of misery)

Usually I'm a bit different though - I'm stymied for a couple weeks then 6 pages will burst outta me. Wash, rinse, repeat until finished. So I suppose this just feels less productive, but hey, at least I'm getting something put to paper.

And I must say, that just makes me all the more impressed with your updating schedule.

Nope, you're definitely not alone. I don't know why, but it's really rare for me to get more than a few sentences or, if I'm lucky, paragraphs written at once. -shrugs-

I suppose this just feels less productive, but hey, at least I'm getting something put to paper.

And this is the important part! Something is better than nothing, definitely.

Ah, my update schedule. If you can call it a schedule... XD

Erm, huh?
Haha, I even tried plugging this into a translator and it still came back garbled, so while I appreciate the sentiment, I really have no idea what you said. O.o
