This year has sucked for me in terms of writing, but well, I know it's happened basically thanks to all the changes in my life. I haven't lost hope, though. I'll be boarding the Allure on Nov 12 (YAY!) and I'0m going to be working on my sesas while I'm there. Writing on the pc is a no no right now....so, I've been thinking about going back to the basics and write on a notebook so that my he-muse returns.
I actually think it's exciting to do it like that, weird, I know, but I'm looking forward to it. I can use one of the crew pcs once I'm on the ship and I'll be typying my heart away before the deadlines, so yeah...I think it's gonna work out ;)

Oh Goddess help me
Oct. 25th, 2011 04:34 pmI've officially signed up for this year's Make The Yuletide Gay Popslash Sesa.
I'm insane, not b/c of the challenge but over time and PC restraints...but I'll make it work out. I won't focus on silly stuff and I'll just think about writing something with the highest standards. Hopefully my Sesa will like it. I always have fun working on it, this year it'll be more awesome. I know.
So yeah, I'm in.

StS Secret Santa Exchange
Dec. 29th, 2010 04:19 pmSince I am this stupid, I didn't post this before...Please, dearest Sesa...forgive me.
I got "The Spare". I asked my SeSa for a story with Siegfried and the Mizar Twins and if s/he couldn't write about the twins, then to give me Bud at least.
I got the whole lot.
Young Siegfried learning from his father. Young, irreverent Hilda learning from her very pregnant High Priestess mother. Absurdly obstuse father of the twins. Caring and looking for being separated from his father Syd. And last but not least, a very proud and ready to prove himself Bud.
The whole setting and the narrative was beyond precious.
I have been so blessed with my two SeSas this year. I have no words.
My MTYG story
Dec. 24th, 2010 05:30 amMy Santa wrote "The Dark Wheel of the Zodiac" for me.
I waited until 4:13 in the morning just for this story and it was worthy.
My Santa used vampires (which I'd requested), werewolves, Fae, magic, the zodiac and a whole bunch of things I love. And I don't think this person actually knows me (but who knows, right?)
All I'm going to say right now is I'M IN LOVE WITH IT.
I've already sent feedback and I hope she gets all the squee and the love and the happiness in me for having received such a wonderful story. I really hope others like it, because seriously, it's amazing. The descriptions, the story itself, the characters, the settings. It's perfect.
So, so perfect.
To my Santa: I'll keep on squeeing over the story for a long time to come. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
My only complaint is that it ended too soon :( *sniff*
Bah, the story is still perfect.
More later...I'm sure ;)
Now I really gotta go to bed. It's freaking 5:24 a.m. and I need to get some sleep. I'm a very happy moon ready to go to bed on a very special night/morning. It'll be dawn in another half an hour...my sister is going to kill me if she finds me still awake :P
*sigh* What a wonderful Christmas' Eve day :D

One SeSa down, one more to go.
Thank you
milosflaca and
muinteor for holding my hands and putting up with me these past couple of weeks. And thank you
nopseud , for without her beta, my story would've sucked.
I couldn't have made it without you guys. You're made of awesome.
Now I only have to pray for my recipient to like it *bites her nails*

My internet connection is working at home tonight. I won't even ask why or how. I'm just grateful and I'll blame X-mas for that.
*giggles*
I'm working on reviewing my MTYG SeSa. I'm feeling awfully ignorant in so many levels regarding my English... but I'm happy. I'm back to learning stuff and that's always exciting for me.
Off to check and write!
P.S: I'm SO happy using the icon
milosflaca help me customise *.*

So... I'm happy to be able to focus on my Sesa. Finally
To my recipient: I've had the story outlined for so long, that I had to stop myself last night to not start writing it. I'll do so today. I really needed a break from participating on the Nanowrimo this year, I'm sorry. Today, however, it'll be my time to work on my Sesa, and I'm dying to do it and I really really hope you like it.
To my Sesa: I can't wait for it to be the 25th. I'd never been so excited about what I'm going to get that... I'm looking forward to it. There's this feeling that I'm so going to enjoy it... *breathes deep*
I'll need a beta for the story in a few days, can someone out there give me a hand?

I'm as far as book 6 on the Southern Vampires Series by Charlene Harris (I hope I wrote her name fine). I have the short stories by Ms. Harris, P.S. I Love You ( plus a lot of crying) and Let The Right One In waiting for me to start them, and I'm sure that at the pace I'm reading, I'll do it this weekend, still, is there any book (ebook, I can't find good books in English in my side of the world) you'd recommend me to read?
thx.
P.S: If you're a Saint Seiya fan and you're on my flist, remember to go and sign up for the Saint Seiya Secret Santa this year.

Saint Seiya Secret Santa 2009
Sep. 1st, 2009 11:24 amI hope a lot of people register this year and well, to everybody on my f-list, check the website for the information and hope you guys join :D (Click on the image for more info).
So the SeSa season is over, and in 2008 I only participated on those for Saint Seiya and in the on that we've been doing over at Runya for three years.
I had
cygny (and believe me, it was pure luck), yet the prompt became hard on me. Writing Bud ain't easy for me for he was Kitten's trademark character, and well, I get over-emotional when it comes to Bud and all that. Ask
milosflaca and
muinteor . There were times when I thought I couldn't write the story, for not even the plot was there, but I managed. So...
cygny requested Bud and Syd and no yaoi, which was fine for me, and so I wrote A Tale of Brotherhood Told in Ten Acts
I have to say that I wish I'd written more of it; but I'd run out of time and my skill writing in English has got worse than it used to be *cry* Still, she liked it!!!! YAY!!!! and when she asked for more, I couldn't help myself and ended up writing another little piece for the twins' parents, and ended up writing what you'll see behind the cut. I've already sent it to her when I responded about the feedback she sent, and well...while I put all this on Labrys, I guess I can just paste it here ^^U
( Epilogue...sort of. )
I got a piece of a story of mine. I told my recipient that I wanted a scene with Milo and an OC of mine, Selek.
lady_hook who was my SeSa, drew this for me. It's a page with panels of Selek and Milo before Milo's parents grave (I guess if you haven't read "Milo, Son of Alesandros--and of Selek won't have any idea what I'm talking about...please forgive me! *puppy eyes*) Lucky me, she knows that story as well as I do, and I couldn't have been any happier. Thanks Icy.
*language swap*
Para el SeSa en español (ambos de hecho O.o) me tocó
hyocam . Pero, como esto es sobre Saint Seiya, el de Runya lo dejo para después.
Hyo pidió Deathmask & Aioria. Tengo que admitir que desde un principio dije que no iba a escribir lemon explícito. No es que me choque la pareja...es que no tenía motivación para escribirla. SIn embargo, me divertí mucho haciéndola, porque traté de ocultar lo que la gente llama "mi estilo" pero bah, de nada sirvió :P Aunque insisto, es tan distinto a lo que usualmente hago, que me gustó mucho darle ese giro. (Aunque no era la primer vez que usaba un narrador así, lo admito)
En fin, que para ella hice Eclipse de Sol, Eclipse de Luna.
Por mi parte, pedí a Shaina y Milo. No pedí romance, sino buena interacción entre ellos, y tengo que decir que quedé con ganas de más! (alguien que me haga el favorcito y me de otro poquito de estos dos...porfis, porfis, porfffiiiiisss???) Qué puedo decir, Nande se jaló una historia estupenda, que me dejó superenganchada. Repito: ¡quiero más! (ya parezco comercial de Tang :P)
Ella escribió Día de Entrenamiento. Es en serio...no hay un alma caritativa por ahí que se apiade de estos pechos y le regale algo con estos dos? (sí, ya sé que no es mi cumpleaños ¬¬ *grumble* pero prometo no pedir nada de nuevo por un tiempo...*cruza los dedo detrás de la espalda*)
*back into English*
Now, I better go to bed. I have to travel to Sincelejo tomorrow. Will be back home on Friday, still...well, I'm sleepy now.

Christmas and Sesas and stuff...
Dec. 29th, 2007 04:58 pm( Christmas... )
Anyways...things have been fine so far. Now to the happiest things:
My Pop Sesa was "My Byg Gay Disney Courtship" It's a Joey x JC and Kelly was added to the equation! I loved it, I have to admit it, though it truly was unexpected. My story rocks! Now that I'm back, I've got to get on reading the rest of them. I haven't really had the time to do so *blushes*
On Sesa's sad news, I don't think my recipient liked the story I wrote for her *sobs* I was afraid that'd happen, but wasn't really prepared for it. I guess I have to get used to that, right?
My Saint Seiya Sesa wrote "A Pain that I'm Used to" . I have to come clean with something, ever since I've started hating the Milo x Camus pairing, I've never read a story that'd made me almost cry for what Milo lost when Camus died, and the whole relationship they had. I mean, I loathe the ice cube, and then, it comes my Sesa and writes this story for me in which Ikki is helping Milo come to terms with Camus' death and they kinda bond and wow! It made me so very happy *squeezes her Sesa* It almost made me like them again. No one had been able to do that in all these months! So thank you, dearest Sesa writer!!!!
Now I gotta go and finish with Séptimo Sentido ^^
Dear Popslash Santa
Nov. 15th, 2007 03:42 pmI really am not very picky when it comes to stories, I like those that touch my heart and will make me bounce across the room and scream out of happiness.
I'm sure I'll make all of this thanks to you.
Just make my boys happy OK? Whatever pairing you choose to write for me, just give 'em some love ^^
-----
P.S: My Sesa assignment is here *.* Oh, joy! (and here I was thinking I wasn't going to say this *blush*)

Finally the names have been revealed and now I know that the person who wrote Optimistic for me was Jae. I'm so happy I finally knew who wrote it. I just wanted to say, one more time that I loved the story ^^
I'm also very thrilled that my recipient who was HeatherLI knew it was me who wrote her story. I wrote Forces of Nature. I'm very happy because she told me she'd liked it and that was like the end of my anxiety for me.
I'm also very thankful for the feedback I received. To those who said something, thank you very much. It truly means a lot to me. Thank you.
What can I say, being part of this Sesa thingy brought a lot of things for me. From anxiety, to happiness, to being worried and even mad; but all in all it's an experience I'm sure I'll be going through again. Even when now when I still want my head in I-don't-know-yet mode on. Man, writing this is making me feel some sort of relief inside. I started in popslash just two and a half months ago, and I've already participated on this. I can't still believe it, but I did.
I'm proud of this Sesa experience. I'm proud of the Xmas gift that I received because it really was wonderful and beautiful. I'm also proud of the story I wrote. It's just very dear to me.
Niiiice.
Yup, I'm smiling like I'm nuts. ^^

Of X-mas presents
Dec. 25th, 2006 11:48 amI hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas!!!!
So, it was a very good night, last night. It really was.
I just managed to write a quick little something for my Sesa writer, and I spent the rest of the evening with Vamp and our families (thank God they live close to each other).
( some presents this way )
