  1. Try my stories! Working on a super-awesome one where the repairman answers a service call in his underwear …. [/plug] Getting drawn in, attached to a story is good, be sure to leave a review! That’s a pat on the author’s back, a payday for them, to help make the effort to bring a story to life, to post it, to make all that effort a bit more worthwhile. If I were getting hundreds of reviews, I might be more picky about their quality, but right now, unless it’s pure hatred/flame, I cheer any review that comes into my inbox, useful or not. Because, when you’re stuck, a “this is awesome” can help motivate your muse to get back on the wagon.
  2. “I don’t think I’ll ever finish that book on optimism.”

      I’ve been meaning to start that one on procrastination for ages.

      I never quite got around to getting the degree, which might be possible if I ever get around to enrolling.

  3. If there’s specific criticism or a lot of concrit, I’ll try to PM the author (in addition to a review,if warranted), simply so they can address it w/o leaving it out like dirty laundry.
  4. One strong review would be a reader crying if you kill a character because you’ve done a good job at characterising them, getting the audience to become attached to them.
  5. Reviews are ambrosia, (well, not flames...). Unless you’re writing original (as I am), you can’t get paid for it (unless you’’re … J.J. cough cough), so reviews are kinda the only thing to stoke the ego, to make you feel really good about posting.
  6. So, how many have I scared with just story tags?
  7. Chapter 9 is up.
  8. Chapter 8 is up.
  9. WIP are just that, WIP. Slight tweak to repair guy, I just realized that Konnor’s parents are already dead as of this story, so several lines of already-posted dialogue in chapters 2/3 have been updated to reflect this. Good thing I’ve got that database to keep track of this...shrugs.
  10. That seems to be how it is for me at times, climb into bed, and suddenly, my mind’s racing. I’ll get up, write it down (because it just came up with a good idea), climb back into bed, only to come up with another idea…. Or, wake up early, mind’s racing, so I can’t get myself to go back to bed. I do try carrying a notebook around, just to jot down ideas when they do come.
