| I'm about to go eat lunch...or brunch, whatever you wanna call it...then continue writing the trilogy. I also love how I managed to filter out the random people clicking on Scowl & Sneer on ffnet and not even reading it by making the first chapter so long. 7k words, yes - that's an entire story for some. And that's barely 1/10 of the entire thing, if not just a little more than that. I find it rather funny, really. I remember just browsing the site a few days back, and saw a story named 'When a granger marries a malfoy' or something along those lines, and someone left a review saying something like 'I knew from the title that this story was going to be good!!!' Ugh.
I've ostracised myself from the community. ffnet, LJ, the internet as we know it - in terms of reading and sharing and contributing to other writers, I've isolated myself from it. Why? Because I don't want the community to consume me again. It did for a while, but then I took a step back and gave up with it. Now my only sphere involves my updates and my readers/reviewers. Seems kinda selfish, but it's working quite well for me. I'm writing for myself more than anything. That is what counts.
Ahh...what else. Hmm...oh! So I watched Sense and Sensibility. I have this HUGE thing of ideas swarming my psyche for CL. Hot damn. I'll also be outlining those today and getting to work on that. Hmm. I also have the book now. I'm good on plot - it's just their dialect and diction back then that's a little...obscure. I'm gonna have to start thinking in terms of that, um, jargon to even begin to get a grasp on it. Don't be surprised if I start writing like that once I get into the grit of things lol.
Yeah...not much else to say. Hmm. I'm off to eat now. Later. |
