Of reading and writing :P

[ariadnem]

Just finished reading "The Eyes of the Dragon" by Stephen King.  If everything I've read about him is true, then this is a special book.  He dedicated it to his daughter and it's lovely.  I mean, it does have King's style, the thriller and everything, but it was written in a light tone and it's pretty much a story for youngsters.  Loved it.

Today I'll be reading "Ice Queen" by diosa_athenea.  I think I'll start reading "Lux Aeterna" by zelha tomorrow.  It's a long story, I'm dying to devour.  That if my limited time allows me to, but well, I can do magic sometimes.

This week I'll be writing for the Hallowen "challenge" (is it a challenge, really?) for the Saint Seiya Eternal forum.  I've already got an idea, hopefully it'll work.  My dearest friend polluxdioscuros allowed me to be part of it despite the way I write and I'm happy.  I need to think about something different before my Nanowrimo begins.

Speaking of Nanowrimo...I'll start focusing on that on Nov 1st.  If anyone wants to read whatever I write, please let me know; I'll make a filter for it since I don't want my flist's flists  full of my allucinations.  Hence, please, let me know, or else, I won't bother you and will just leave you out of it.

Also, speaking of writing, I've decided to stop my 50 posplash prompts.  There's no motivation to write them, and I've realized that perhaps being a writer in this fandom is too much for me.  I think I just don't fit in "that position" so to speak.  Right now, it's way better to just be a lurker in that sense and enjoy the good popslash writers I've found.  Though I can't wait for the autumchallenge and the sesa in December.  I'm dying to read good stories.  Hopefully someone will pick my fave pairings  :P

I had so many other things to write, but I'd just forgotten them.  Well, I'll write again, when I remember them ^^

I'd love to read what you write for Nanowrimo. I probably won't be able to comment much, but I really want to see how this project goes for you. :)

ZOMG YER GONNA READ MAH STORY!!! *IS DEAD* >______>

I already started with the horror story, although it won't be a horror story per-say, because I want to mindfuck some Kyotos we know. >D

I haven't read anything by Stephen King in like 20 years? My first King book was Salem's lot, back in 1979 or so, then someone lent me their copy of The Stand, which took me a whole Summer to get through, just like Lord of the Rings did. I'm a slow reader, aren't I? I remember a film called Reuben, Reuben, and when the main character is told that some speed reader can read such-and-such a book in record time, he responds something like "I wish someone could teach me to read my favourite books slower". I could relate to that.

Sounds like you'll be very busy reading and writing, and that's great.

Looking forward to reading every single word you write. That Halloween challenge sounds like fun. Then Nanowrimo... enjoy that.

Sorry about the popslash fandom thing, but what can I say? I'm totally non-fandom. I'm way too lazy and way too un-cool to belong to one. Plus, I'm way too picky with what I read.

Hope you enjoy some good stuff over there.

Looking forward to reading what you forgot to write.

I'm sorry you've decided to stop writing the pop stuff, do know I for one enjoyed your stories.

However, you have to do what's best for you.
