  1. I am currently struggling with the idea of following a reviewers suggestion to take down my story, re-edit, and post for more people to read. I already have at least 30 chapters up...I have to think this over carefully.

      I don't think it's necessary to take down your whole story. Thirty chapters is a lot of work to post. Don't worry about how many people read your story. The point is to share it, not to compete for ratings.

      Reviewers try to help us generally, but in the end you don't need to write just to please them. Work on your story however is easiest for you. Readers don't understand how hard it is to edit and publish our works.

  2. New years resolution: lose 77 lb over 12 months. I suppose that's better than 50 over 3 mo like last time. I've always wondered since the biggest loser started how those ppl don't end up w/ eating disorders after.

      I lost 50 lb in 3 mo because I was walking about 4 mi a day due to the fact I didnt have a car and lived in a large city. Also I made myself walk up 10 flights of stairs in class instead of taking the lift like other students. I didn't use the gym, but ran hills about 3x/wk. Other than that, I ate about 1000-1200 kcal a day b/c I was poor. Now that I live in the states again, the portions are huge, I have a car, and I've stopped purging. Plus bulimia, contrary to popular opinion, end...

      I mean, it's not safe to lose more than 2 lb a week, and the trainers always are disappointed when the poor guys don't lose like 9 lbs in one week. That's pretty hard to do without starving yourself.

  4. Don't you hate it when someone lands a plane on the highway? Honestly, it's not like I'm hogging their air space.

  5. Happy New Year! Best of Luck with your writing in 2014!

  10. I am being told by my college that I am 95% done with the human services program! XD Meaning FA will pay for 2 of the 3 semester i have left to do! Guess whos graduating in Spring 2014! :D

  11. Three years of working my butt off in restaurants and I've finally scrounged together enough for a journalistic course. Happiness is my name!

  12. Finally finished a chapter of SOMETHING, god that was like pulling a tooth. It's like I do 98% research and 2% writing.

    1. magicmau5

      magicmau5

      Yeah it made me cry! Then I realized its still a WIP and was really happy. Off the Wall is probably your best bet as far as my writing - The Invasion of Ian is pretty hardcore, and Crave needs some work on grammar/punctuation. Damn, I still gotta get to that!

      I'm not that good with smut, tbh. Maybe I could learn a thing or two from you!

  16. omfg made oatmeal cranberry cookies tonight, ate the dough (of course) and now mine tummy feels awful :(

  17. I promised myself I wouldn't go back and rewrite things until the fic was finished over all, but everytime I look at the first chap of MBWLAYWGS it keeps getting worse and worse. I don't think I can resist the compulsion. Must... Nitpick... GAH! I'm never going to get anything finished at this rate.

      I do exactly the same thing! I guess it might irk readers, but it really annoys me if I see a mistake in my writing.

  18. trudges back to sparkly hell. Not Twilight. Tutus. I'm being attacked by tutus.

  22. It sucks when no one likes your story. Feel like humming the "nobody likes me everybody hates me guess I'll go eat worms" song.

  23. I hate it when you read a romance and then there's absolutely no sex whatsoever. It's like, what's the point? At least one time, right?

      Argh I realized I said the word "like" way too many times - damnnit magicmau5!

      Lol no kagome it wasn't lethal, it was Underlying, and I think I would have been satisfied w/o sex but the ending really sucked. It left me wanting so much more, and it pissed me off! It's like, there was no resolution whatsoever. BW, innuendo is fine...Dany, I actually don't like romances much at all. Which is probably also why I didn't like the story! lol. I'll stick to what I know from now on - raw, violent, angsty action-filled fiction.

    1. magicmau5

      magicmau5

      Yeah my jeans fit better and I can lift heavier weight so it's probably the more muscle scenario.
