  1. So.. quiet.. ; ;

    I flick back and forth from the main site to the forum quite a few times a day.

    Sometimes I will spend hours on the forum and then hours on the site itself.

    You will find everyone hopping in here for a few minutes to check out the new posts and stuff.

    But what I love right now, is that people are coming here. Soon, they'll be talking to the authors of their favorite stories and soon the plot bunnies will be popping up everywhere here.

  2. Plastic Ziploc Bags

    I use them for only temp holding device for food as usually I end up eating the food and then pitch the bag, if I wasn't going to keep it. Now it would smell if you had reused the bag and not washed it out before reusing it again.

    I reuse the bags if I need to and pitch if I can't reuse it again.

    I wrote a HP/GW story called Fateful encounters. Am working on the second chapter adding more stuff to it beyond making it just another sex filled story.

    I did write one HP/GW where I made them break up only to end up having it be a GW/DM story but it turned out to be just a dream for Ginny.

  15. I hate the holiday season!

    I for one welcome chirtmas music since the rest of the year my boos had bad opera on and it drives me batty, smile.gif

    Maybe they should get in their stocking or probably have received new opera CDs to play this coming year?

    Or maybe some Broadway showtunes would be good or maybe some nice 1960 to 1970 oldie music would be good as that's not the nasty music that is playing on the airways these days.

    Maybe talk to the bosses to see what type of light rock music that they like like Sir Elton John or the Rolling Stones or the Beatles or some of the older music that is out there, it can't help to see if they might be interested in spicing up the tunes a bit, make the place a little lively during the daytime.

  17. Writers and Bastards

    in Personal Rants & Journals

    Let me step in here.

    I have read your posts and you all have made good points in your posts.

    JK Rowling started off nothing more then a poor woman who had an amazing idea for a story, which came to be Harry Potter. Now the last two books were not up to what I would call her best stories out there. She has stated that she does not want her characters to be seen in mature stories and yet she has them fighting for their very lives against the Death Eaters. So in a way, she has approved fanfiction up to the rating R.

    Now you want to know who is a bastard in the writing world.

    That's easy - Anne Rice herself.

    She has stated from the start, that she never allowed her work to be edited by anyone after she had her first book edited by an editor. She didn't like how the editor told her to rewrite certain parts of the book. She really needed to step back and look over what the editor had done and saw that he was right, but she took his edits as an insult to her and refused to have the book and any other books edited by anyone. Her books, though good, was extremely hard to read because there was plot holes or various other things wrong with it.

    And plus she has flat out refused to allow fanfiction because the writing from her fans was way better then her writing and she saw it, but refused to get her stories edited to be the best that they can be instead that they were fresh from her hand. All of her stories have something wrong with them and she refuses to correct the mistakes that is within her stories. I own four of her books her Sleeping Beauty stories and Ramses. I like those four, even if there is mistakes in them.

    I have one book that I didn't want to be edited because I thought it was good as it stood right then but after I thought about it, I decided to give it a chance and saw the improvements that was there and I ended up writing 30 pages more to the story. One day, I hope to publish it, either by self publishing it or by a publisher.

  19. Dumbledore is gay.

    in General

    Posted

    It is no longer her place to decide who is gay and who's straight. If she'd wanted to make Dumbledore gay she should've done it in one of the books. This doesn't count and this is exactly why I think JKR should die a horribly painful death. She's no writer, she's a bitch who stumbled upon a good story.

    I agree with you on the part that she doesn't have the right to say who's gay and who's not. She should have said so in the book itself, but she didn't so I do not consider that information as canon information at all.

    She just got lucky with the series, I doubt people will be waiting in huge lines for her new murder mystery book to come out. She may realizes that her fans are waiting for the books that were spoken about in the books themselves and she ends up writing them, people will return for those books only. I for one, would love to read Hogwarts: A History.

  23. Explain Your Username

    Solaris came about in 2002 when I was trying to name a future foal from my pregnant mare. It could go both ways male or female.

    The foal turned out to be a colt so I named him Star of Solaris but didn't formally name him on his registration papers till 2004 when the midwife and breeder died and his name was changed from that to Pam's Star of Solaris.

    I then, took the name Solaris for a female Elf in my Dark Elf stories and I have used that name for other forums but a couple where I use another handle at. But I mainly use Solaris for forums or archive sites.
