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'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.

I don't know whether that's a good decision or not, you know? But for now, it makes my heart feel at ease. I've still got a couple of things that I owed and have to write and well, who knows? I might start writing something sometime. I've got ideas, I just ain't got the guts to put them on paper, and I'm not sure I'll ever have them again.

Thank you for your words, really. You've been a great source of inspiration.

*hugs*

If it makes you feel at ease, I think it's the right decision to make. You have to do what makes you happy, and while I'll miss your work, knowing you're feeling better about things is the most important thing.

Writing used to make me happy. I may have made the wrong decisions regarding things related to writing; perhaps I started writing in the fandom when it was too early (barely a week after first being introduce to it) Don't know. Right now, stepping aside makes me feel OK. I still enjoy reading you guys, and well, we'll see what happens later. I need to recover certain amount of confidence on my writing and my English before doing it again. And I also need to step out my safe ground, Spanish...anyways...the bottom line is, I need to enjoy writing again.

Thank you for understanding, really. Thank you for not pitying me or patronising me.
