Feelin' a bit ponderous...

[cerulean_sky]

Am actually writing a piece of fanfiction... a substantial piece that is... And believe it or not, (as I just checked) it's a word short of being 1000 words. :D :D I think that's about as long as a normal chapter or Fire and Air. And, considering that that is the longest thing I've really written, this impresses me very much of the much. :D

I hope this means that I cn really write fanfics now... Before I've tried and never got very far in it. Made me sad... but! I have 1000 words of fanfiction-y goodness!

ladyjaida is at the Simon and Garfunkle concert tonight, and I have nothing to do other than write this gigantic thing. Shouldn't be that much longer though. So I suppose it's not really gigantic. ladyjaida once wrote a 10,000 word fic in a day. I suppose I have a ways to go before I get to be that, but it's all good now as far as I'm concerned. :D

And for all those awaiting my original stuff, I'v put it on hold for this because I have to have this done (done being at least 1000 words, which, as I said, I have reached ( :D ),) by the 20th and would rather get it done sooner rather than later. And then you hall get more of Fire and Air as well as Glimpses of Heaven (note: tentative title). So, hang in there and we'll be back online.

((Who am I kidding, it's really not like that many of you are waiting anxiously for updates or anything... As far as I know there are about five of you who actually read the stories I'm talking about... *sigh* Whatever... *goes back to the fic* ))

Yay for ficcie goodness... and by the 20th leads me to believe this cool ficcie is perhaps for the_pimp_cans's Merry Smutmass? ^_^

Glad it's going well. Writing is always hard...sometimes even harder when it's for a fandom cause you have to conform to certain things, and can't just run with what you think up. I'm sure it'll be fine, and I'm really excited to read it! *runs off to check your LJ for above mentioned "original fics"*

Some people write long stories, or use a lot of words -- others write shorts or have a simple style. Neither one is necessarily 'good' or 'bad.' Just remember, word count does not a good writer make. ^^ I actually just read a chapter or so of Fire and Air the other day, and I liked it.
