The story that was might end up being the story that ain't. This thing took a nosedive today and I don't think I can pull it up and save it. I'm walking away from it for awhile to finish some other stories and I'll try and come back. :(
Yeah. I woke up this morning with something that MIGHT fix it but my friend who read the story was like DO NOT EVEN LOOK AT IT until I finish the other stories I have that REALLY need to be done. Like the damned Valentine's prompt. I think I know what went wrong though, so there's already a teeny tiny pinprick of hope.
BTW, you know what's sad? The stupid wedding part is choking me for the Valentine's story.
Ok, we definitely broke LJ. I'm no longer getting alerts on messages. xD Yay for a possible fix! But your friend is probably right. Finish the ones that are more pressing. Your mind is probably just distracted!
Yeah we SOOOOOOOO broke LJ because this hasn't come through. Man LJ is seriously pissed at us. Hehehe
I don't know. Poor boys. They're just sitting there. I mean I've got the hilarious after wedding sex all planned out and everything but the actually wedding... bah nope.
Well, when in doubt with wedding stuff, you could always just have every single thing go wrong? Or skip it all together. Or just insert that old priest dude from Princess Bride and make movie jokes the entire time.
Haha that would totally be an awesome wedding. Hmmm, I bet a million times over it'll come to me tonight when I'm stuck in my 5 hour biz law class. That's where my Sad Face story came to me and actually I just started writing on it again which is a nice feeling after the straight up panic of last night. I thought oh Christ it's gone AGAIN. My friend suggested I stick with movie verse for awhile. I think I'm gonna have to agree. Have you started training yet?
Oh I'm sure it'll come during class. All my best ideas come at work. The new drawing I did came while I was sitting here at my desk! Speaking of... *gets rough draft sketch off desk* But yeah, muses seem to love to come when you can't do squat about it. xD
And hey, if you're panicking over it, it's not fun! And it's supposed to be fun on some level. :) Your movie verse is a ton of fun, so if that's what you concentrate on, I am NOT gonna complain! :D
Oh those evil muses!! I hate that. Especially when I get a really good idea and by the time I get to where I can write it out... BAM it's gone. Hehe sorry for the panic. I'm seriously a drama queen. I'm glad you think it's fun because I have a BLAST writing it. Damn, I love me some movie FxM. I think I need to pop the movie in right now. BTW, I'm totally rocking some jeans and an A-Team van shirt JUST for you!!! :)
Seeeeeriously! I have scrap paper by my desk now for the sole reason of trying to capture those ideas. Sometimes it works, other times - POOF! Idea or motivation for it gone when I step out the door.
Nonono, I didn't mean you were a drama queen! I meant you're supposed to be having fun, and panicking isn't fun. So do what you need to do to have fun and not panic. xD Heh, sorry about that!
Also, I almost just awwww'ed out loud, which would probably have earned me odd looks from my boss who just went by. Whew! But still, I'm feelin' the love from the other side of the country! <3
OH GAH! Internet miscommunications!!! Lol. I didn't mean you. I meant me. I've been sulking all morning and actually went to bed at 1 a.m. (EARLY) on the verge of tears because I thought I wasn't gonna write anymore, so I myself was feeling pretty drama queeny. Lol.
*giiiiggles!* Don't you know the Internet is made for miscommunication? xD Awww, I'm sorry to hear though! Drama queen or not, many hugs to you! Going to bed frustrated stinks. I had a frustrated muse yesterday and even that is hard. *hugs!*
YES, YES I DO. (aka, if that was a reference, I totally missed it xD)
Also, I feel like my drawing muse is slinking away fast. Nooooo... Maybe I'll try to draw 1920s Murdock again, even though I usually fail to get him how I want. I also just realized I never answered your question: no, no training yet. A meeting first then training meeting. x_x
BTDubs. I may not have the other story but damn this Sad Face story is almost done. I absolutely love it and it'll be posted hopefully tonight. I'm leaving it for E to read over while I'm at school.
True, the Internet IS for porn. It's also for spamming everything with ads for Viagra. Trust me, I know. xD
I actually might not have to use handcuffs. I have homework for this weekend, but training might have to wait until Monday. What, what?! Saved by the powers that be! And on top of that, sad Face tonight? Heeeeeaven!
Oh yes sad Face and possibly the second part of my Pardon Me story. I'm on a damned roll today. I think that was a sign from the slashy Gods that I can go forth and squee all I want about TV!Face/Murdock I am not allowed to write big heavy stuff. Only the occasional PWP and goofy short fics apparently. But then really, that's what I do best. Porn and Humor. :P
They are. Especially when it's spamming the Internet...
Yaaaay! Hey, some people just cannot write either genre to save their life. Trust me! Take both and run, woman! Same with writing movie verse. To each their own talents, and yay for me who gets to benefit from those talents! :D
Also, I have a certain muse who wants me to draw him as a cowboy...
You seriously make me blush! Holy moly I totally wanna make out with your muse right now. Lol I'm so happy I saw this before going into class. Screw biz law I'll be thinking about cowboys riding stallions for the next five hours thank you very much!!!
Hahaha, my muse is a sweetheart, and one I want to make out with often as well. This might be counterproductive to his job as my muse, but I wouldn't have it any other way. xD
Good luck in business law! Five hours should be criminal for class length.
Hahahaha I peaced out after two hours. I'm about to post the first part of the Face story right after this comment. It's untitled for now but I'll find a name for it. I'm posting the second part tomorrow.
Damn we BROKE LJ!!! I don't know but it's really irritating. Like I gotta refresh and remember how many comments were on a thread just so I can know what's what.
Same here. And I have other things I've comment on, but no idea if people respond! I'm not amused... And then I get all of the comments in one go, late. I wish I could say it was my email server!
Hehehe! Also, I may have abandoned my H/F story to write you some PWP for your prompt from last night. xD All while I should be reading about local search marketing.
OMG if I didn't have cooties I'd SOOOOOOOOOOO internet make out with you right now!!!! I'm being a super OCD nerd and putting together a master Fu King timeline of all my stories, when I really should be finishing my Valentine's story. (They're soooooo still stuck at the courthouse just waiting for my ass to get it together.) or my QL/TAT story which is gonna be hilarious because it decided the other day to switch to movie verse. :)
Bahahahaha! The thought is appreciated! You can thank cpt_murdock as well. I'm just stringing some of the dialogue she gave me into an easier format. xD
Whooo hooo! Hey, timelines are a very good thing! You won't regret it later on. And I think you're the only one doing QL/TAT movie verse. Should be fun!
Oh hell yes! Both of y'all get sicky internet kisses. Lol. I woke up this morning and was like FRAK! I'm so getting sick. I'm straight up bundled in about 457487 layers of clothes,socks and a freaking blanket and I'm still cold.
I was so supposed to do a dang series one but it just wasn't happening then the other day I had the crackiest idea how to cross QL with the movie since technically with my stickler for authenticity they fall out of Sam's leap window by 10 years. *nerd* Even the freaking name is cracky. Oh BTW I found a name for my Face story. Also gave me the name for the BA story that's it's companion piece, when I get it done.
I'm sorry you're not feeling well! I was sick last week, cpt_murdock this week, I guess this upcoming week is your turn. Boo! Stupid germs. What good are they?
Hehe, yay crack! Like I've said, I have seen none of QL, though know the basic premise. So it's going to be fun reading everything and seeing how different everyone interprets it! Also, titles are bitches, just sayin'. xD I hate coming up with them. I feel like they're never clever enough!
I need to dye my hair because seriously I should NOT have so much gray at 32 but my hair doesn't keep color. It washes out almost immediately.
I'm starting on the story right now. I've been trying to write the Valentine's story for a week. Trying is not a good word. It's more FIGHTING and BEGGING. The boys are NOT ready to get married so I'm done. I'm putting it away because I believe that's been my issue with every other story I've been trying to work on. Oh, well. On to things that feel MUCH better. :(
I always have issues with my titles but then something hit me at the last minute or days later like this one did. :)
I'm having that issue a bit with the dye I'm using right now. I think I need to get a darker version. :/ Do you use a box or mix it yourself? Might be the brand.
Usually I can set a story aside and come back to it, renewed, later on. And it's a good thing to do when it fights you! But I hate it when you put them away and they bury themselves so far into the sand they don't want to come back out. Bugger them! That's why I'm kind of working on an F/M one. Or will be after I read this booklet. xD
I just decided "screw it" and I'm just gonna let it go gray. Hehehe though E said I may have to change my haircut so it's not so mom looking once it's super gray.
I hope they don't bury themselves too far but if they do it's ok I got TONS more ideas before they get to that point. Also I think because it seemed like THE END with them being pardoned and everything that part of me was having anxiety because I'm crazy like that. Lol.
And you writing some F/M is making me TOTALLY happy! :)
Grey hair is distinguished! I know a certain Colonel who would agree. ;)
Yeah, I can see why that would cause some anxiety. It's not the end though! There's still plenty of things that can go wrong!-er, I mean, go on. >.> After all, it is Face and Murdock, and it is us! (It could always be a dream...what? Who said that?)
Hehe, I'm glad it makes you happy! It does for me too! Though Still have Google Places to learn about. Oh Google, why are you so complicated...
I can see it now! BA waking up, and Murdock asking what he dreamed about, BA responding: "You were gettin' your fool ass married, though hell know why anyone would give you a ring!" Murdock grinning, shrugging, turning: "Don't know why anyone would either...considering I already have one!" xD
And Google Places is...if you type in a restaurant, it shows up on your search results under "Places for..." and with the address, phone number, city, and how many stars/reviews it has. I'm learning how to make places optimized so that search engines rank it higher.
I just hate it though. Really messes with my OCD when I can't finish a story. It straight up put into a nasty funk last night. Lol. BTW your icon is so the yum.
Ah. I don't think it's a good thing for writers to be OCD. It messes with your head. I'm weird about some things in life too and when I can't finish a story I either don't care, ori start the thing over again.
Thanks, I haven't found a lot of 1978 BSG icons. I found this some place though, along with the metaphor icon. Lol. I didn't male them. Iwish my computer worked though, so that I could make some icons.
