Alive

Truth It used to be the grounding of my life. Rock bottom. Truth used to be how I navigated my life. And then I developed things I wanted. I wanted the Lady January. I wanted Hawaii. Gods, I’d never wanted anything so badly. And so I tried for the first time Really, really tried. Everything else had... Sign in to see full entry.

The Red Candle, a poem

The Red Candle Are you afraid of sexuality? Licking, binding, plundering Kisses so soft as angel wings Afraid your fingers have wraith touch Afraid your heart is brittle black glass Speak to your lover Speak to your heart Burn the red candle Life you can handle I think I found the next chapter of...

Universal Twilight

I don't know how many of you have read my Twilight Youji, but I've been thinking about that story this morning. I've wanted to make it original for a long time. It's connected to another story that I've been wanting to write. And to wanting to write erotic flavors that interest me, to wanting to... Sign in to see full entry.

Just journaling

Good morning! How are you all? I got a lot written yesterday and I slept really well. I also broke 200 on the scale for the first time in my life. I have to take of my health in order to live long enough to write my stories. At least today is Saturday and I can get a lot done today! *cheers* This... Sign in to see full entry.

editors

How does one editor 'Love' become 'The story is salvageable' when he goes on vacation and another takes over? Why do editors think they can take two months to reply, say whatever the hell they want, and still have writers kissing thier feet? I think I'd rather stay independent. Sign in to see full entry.

Lonely

Wahhh Loneliness ruined my plans yesterday. I got one chapter done, and the website updated and then… I just wanted someone to play with. So I wasted the day looking. There’s no one out there to play with. < example of whining. So I posted on most of my groups this morning. There is someone to role... Sign in to see full entry.

ESN

ESN I took an ESN today. Emergency Short Notice. It’s as if life is welling up within me, beautiful and vibrant and I am free, for today. I want everyday to feel like this, to feel as if I’m only doing things I want to be doing. Caring about people, writing my stories, loving those I love, drinking... Sign in to see full entry.

fedoras and elves

I started writing really, writing again today. I can almost feel what I want to write on the edge of my finger tips. I want my Taylish/Tai character, and his partner Eja/Alex and I want fedoras and elves, bards. And I want a battle between good and evil. One of the things holding me up, I think is...

Independence or Tradition

I am so torn between writing independently and writing for a publisher. One of those beasts wrote me early last week and asked for a story, so I wrote it the next day and sent it back. Still haven not heard. I don’t really like waiting. On the other hand, I don’t seem to make much money with my... Sign in to see full entry.

Just a poem about a flame

Life is about bartering. Breathing oxygen in, carbon monoxide out. Bartering Flame by Nix Wind scratches at me Pulling bits into the lost nothingness beyond And I trade those bits To keep the embers That remain Darkness dwarfs me And deep within my wick I tell myself my world is only as wide as my...
