flash

When I was younger.. I thought stories lasted forever. I thought all stories were like Lord of the Rings... and if I made a great story it would last forever. Recently it's been on my mind that... stories don't last forever. While the Library of Congress may welcome them or they may find places in... Sign in to see full entry.

Soooo

I keep going away and coming back, but this time I paid up for a year, so I guess I'm here for a while. *smiles* Blogit is such a cool idea. And I have decided that I don't really enjoy publishers. So... let's see... What's new? I got a new root canal Friday. So far, so good. I'm working wildly on a... Sign in to see full entry.

Ever?

Ever had something someone else wanted soooo badly that they'd run around behind you like wolves? Sneaking and snarling and spitting? Even if it's something you don't mind not having anymore.. there's a nasty feeling of... being robbed when it's gone. Well, I hope those that have it now enjoy it. I... Sign in to see full entry.

the purpose of writing

1. to enjoy myself Yeah. Simple. But that's why I started. When my self confidence took some hits over the last few years, it also took on the purpose of getting people to stroke my ego. I guess that's pretty common too. People in all kinds of professions go to work to have their ego stroked.... Sign in to see full entry.

Pirated

One of my books got pirated. Being sold on ebay by someone who claims to be a doctor. Buy an ebook!.30! Wow. I don't know if I should be flatted that my book is stolen or feel violated or both. Sad. I just feel sad. Sign in to see full entry.

No whining today!

It's my day off and sooo much writing needs to get done! But that's okay:) I have lots of energy and plans to write. Another person said to me, 'You write so well! I'm jealous!' Maybe I take it wrong... I don't want to hurt anyone. I don't want to cause anyone discomfort. I just want to write my... Sign in to see full entry.

being a ghost

maybe I want to just be invisible again. I think maybe I don't want to be a famous writer anymore. That's just one of those things everyone thinks would be cool, but the closer one gets....maybe the less cool it is. Or maybe it's being so close... and just never really there. I don't know. I suppose... Sign in to see full entry.

words

I didn't sleep well last night. Odd dreams. I hope I get all the stories I want to write written before I die. I'm going to be forty in feb. Forty's not old. Yet I get hives when I go to work and my hair is this beautiful silver color. *sigh* What has any of that got to do with writing? I've ground... Sign in to see full entry.

why not?

soooo there are a lot of people who like yaoi. I want to make manga. I live in the US. That's not always working so well. I should make my own. I bet I'd sell wild amounts of it if it were good. I have to finish some novellas first though. Kai Stubborn, Storm View, The Pet 5, and Rose Mage.... Sign in to see full entry.
