Good news, I started writing the other day - Tuesday, I believe it was. I procrastinated studying for a test tomorrow, incidentally. I tried something different this time, and it helped me get past the writer's block I had going. I knew where I wanted to kind of end the chapter, so that was where I started. I started that scene, and got through a good chunk of it. Good stuff. Now, the chapter is far from done - I only had a short bit of time in between classes, but it is started. I'm getting caught up on homework, so hopefully this will follow. :D Just had to let everyone know that.
Tchao!

No, I am not dead...
... I swear, I'm not. However, I might as well be with how much I haven't been writing. I haven't even started the next chapter. I think I might have written myself into a slight corner, as I have no idea where I want to go with the story right now. And then, I have been busy. The perpetual excuse. School has been a major pain in the butt. My goal this week is to get caught up on all the shit I'm behind on for school, and then, with this weekend free, to write. So, I'm off to do that now. I apologize for the long wait. :( I'm working on it. In the meantime, go read a real book. A whole bunch just came out today!

Heheh
Heheh - I have thought of the perfect way to end the next chapter. As soon as I can get my act together and write it, you all shall know my glee. I got a review stating that Kagome is kind of weak. Yeah, I agree. I don't particularly like it either. It got me to thinking, how do I strengthen her character? Hm. I thought and thought and thought myself into a corner. And, tadah! I thought of the perfect way to show she isn't as soft as people think. :D I can't wait till you all see it. Here's hoping I can write it well enough. Wish me luck! And by god, review here and there! Give me ideas, criticism, love, anything! I'll even sit and discuss books. Like Laurell K Hamilton and Anita Blake. The best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And her newest book is coming out JUNE THIRD!!! JUNE! I can't wait! See, I can sit and rant and rave! Name a character - except Richard, cause we just won't go there. :D Review!

Slow Week
It's been a slow week for writing, but a fast week for everything else. So far, I've bombed my goal of writing everyday, but I aced a French test, got new glasses, worked on Wednesday, went to the dentist Thursday, attended two martial arts classes, and attended classes, and an interview Tuesday. I also had a test on Monday, a test on Tuesday, a test on Friday, a test next Wednesday. Dang, talk about a lot of work. But, good news for me, not necessarily you guys, I have been exercising every day; a minute amount, but every day. That itself is a huge accomplishment. Cool stuff. Once I get around adding exercise and getting caught up on school work, I'm adding writing to the schedule. I just have to slowly learn how to manage better. In the mean time, I'm writing in spare moments that just magically appear. :D Problem is, right now, I have no motivation to write. I don't know what to do with the next chapter. Torture scene with Keiko? Revelation of the spider? Bring in more characters? What, what, what? I think I need to put in a teaser for the past. That sounds good. And then, we need some Kagome/Hiei interaction. Smut? Fighting? Both? Hehe. They are sleeping together in the same house for some reason I throw together, and they have this highly erotic scene, and wake the entire house up with their fighting. Oh yeah, good stuff. I can see it now. In fact, I'm going to write what I'm seeing when I get the chance, so no telling you the awesome picture going through my little brain. I need to throw you guys for a whirl. Right now, I think everyone is just like, yeah, ok, nothing big just happened. I want you all to go NO, WHY, WHAT NEXT??? So, anyone have any good ideas for a really good cliff hanger, like maybe right in the middle of an attack or something. 'Cept that would be evil-like... Hm... For those few of you who view this, find it in yourself to comment on my blog and tell me what you all think. I accept anonymous, so you don't have to have an account. Please. I'm on my knees begging here... :(
Tchao! :D

Finally!
I finally posted! It took a while, but I did it. It was easier than normal because I was ready to write, and I already had a jumpstart of three pages. Woot! I deleted a tinsy bit of what I wrote before because that direction just wasn't working, and then I moved forward with a goal in mind of what I wanted to get done. Got it done! Cool. I can't wait for comments and reviews. I've been missing them. Hopefully, this will get me focused back on writing. One can always hope. Anyways, this will have to be short. I don't have much else to say anyways. Have a great night, everyone!

Nutin and Nada
I haven't written anything lately, at all, since the last time I said I did - only a couple of days, but... I am ashamed of myself, but things just got away again. They keep doing that. It's like I just don't have enough time in the day. But then, no one else does either. So, nothing new to report. In fact, I wrote myself into a corner. I wrote, and then I didn't like how it was going and got stumped. I don't know how to finish the scene, which sounds like I'll need to delete a shitload and start over. Not very motivating, that. However, I have found time to squeeze more reading in. I love reading, and haven't been doing enough since I started this semester of school, so I've been working at squeezing that in. Maybe now I need to physically and mentally work at squeezing writing in. I think I just don't have the same care for writing as reading. It seems like I am getting no where, and it takes forever to write a scene that takes a few minutes to read. Here is the comparison: read a book in a few hours and go on this wild adventure with romance and hot, sweaty smut... or try and type for three hours a scene that is a few pages long and doesn't seem to excite my readers very much... Which one would you choose? And if you are a martyr/saint, don't answer. I expect everyone to be selfish and say, duh, the book. If it was only so. I'll have to work harder at it, I suppose. I think I now of a good time to squeeze it in, so, maybe Thursday I can get it in. Tomorrow is out. I got to classes, in between classes I go to an interview, and then I go to work. Busy day tomorrow, and I'm not really looking forward to it. I hate when I don't have two seconds to just sit and breath. I think tomorrow is definitely going to be one of those days. Ah well. Anyways, I'm done with my spiel today.

Poetry to Fiction
I wrote something today. I know, y'all will just have to calm your beating hearts. It's such a shock. :D I know. It's a shock for me too, for the record. I think I work best under procrastination, and since I was supposed to be doing some boring homework, voila! However, I read something, actually for my poetry class, that I thought was applicable to writing fiction as well. To write, you have to set time aside each day to do it. I think late night will have to be my time. Or maybe right when I get out of classes. The author said that if you set aside time - an appointment, and you consistently go to that appointment without being late or skipping out, then so will your imagination, your creativity, your everything. So, my new not New Year's resolution is to set aside time for writing and write everyday. For the record, the book was much more eloquent. Anyways. I only wrote a little, just the first part of the reaction to the finger tip - 3 pages. So the next chapter is far from being done. But hopefully, I will write more tomorrow. Even though I am already thinking that I won't have time tomorrow. I'll have to just make time.
So here is to resolutions. May I learn to keep them, like losing weight. that one is a never ending one that doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
Thcao!

Quick Update
Just a quick update: I have written nothing. Super, super busy with everything, and more, at once. So, while I have the next part planned out, I don't have time to write. I thought I should let people know since this is going to end up being a long time between updates.
No one let me know about the color thing on mediaminer, and no one seems to know whose finger that is... I'm mentally smacking my head, going why does no one remember? Only one person said it so far, and they had like three guesses. Oh well, until the next chapter then.
Let me know what you guys think about anything, hopefully about my stories and blog - review and talk to me!
