NaNoWriMo and writing in general

[rosegilmore]

For the last four nights I've tried to write something for the anon fic meme, and the only thing i have to show for my work is the beginnings of 5 different prompts. Anyway, i will continue to try

Awwww, I can't wait to read your stuff in the anon meme! Keep trying.

(I've been battling some MAD writer's block on my Jo/Gale fic, so I totally know how you feel.)

And what are you going to be for Halloween? I can't decide.

[rosegilmore]

Thanks for the encouragment. I will keep trying. :)

If you want to bounce some ideas off me, feel free to send what you have for the jo/gale fic. I'd love to read it.

I knew somewhere around may that I wanted to be Brair Rose.

I'm like 90% done with the fic, but now I'm in that phase where I kind of hate everything I've done LOL. And I know exactly what scenes need to happen next, but I've been writing the fic for what feels like FOREVER (just ask taragel, she's seen like 18 versions of it LOL) so I think maybe I'm just burned out. Or maybe I just need encouragement?

And I LOVE Briar Rose. I teach dance to toddlers, so the Disney princesses are a constant topic of conversation. I always tell them that I love Belle because she reads books LOL...

[rosegilmore]

LOL, i feel like that all time time with my fics. Like, only after a week or two of having it up, do i actually start liking them. XD
Consider this encouragement: you can do it!!!! don't be so hard on yourself!! :)))

Belle is super kick ass! :) I've always loved sleeping beauty though. And a ton of my friends are making 'twisted disney princesess' costumes. Have you seen those deviantart pics of them? like all gothic and vampire-ish? pretty cool.

Just try! It is such a great excercise to do! in 08 I did it for the first 4 days, and i think i had a total of like 2k, but its so much fun! even if you fail!
and the 500 days of summer drable thing sounds very fun!!

Feel free to spoil, i'll put a spoiler warning in my main entry. :)
I've read both stargirl books, so you won't be spoiling me though. xD

Omg, the letter it is so perfect. I get so happy everytime i think about that part. He knew what she was asking him, and when Archie says "Leo is starting to head towards a path that leads him towards deserving you." or something like that (i'm the worse paraphraser ever). I seriously love these two.

you should get in touch with your sappy side. :)) i have no problem admitting when i cry through books or movies. xD

[rosegilmore]

I've started a few off a prompt and then I stop halfway through and i realize that this basically has nothing to do with the awesome prompt. lmao

I'm Briar Rose!! AKA sleeping beauty in hiding :)
