Thoughts on writing, reading and life and what I happen to be reading/writing right now. |
|
It's my senior year in highschool and I'm stretching my fingers and getting down and gritty with my writing. I'm trying to grow as a writer and deal with the drama (read: trauma) of my life and school. Should be interesting, as my life is something of a comedy of errors... |
| I GOT INTO UCLA!! NO COMMUNITY COLLEGE FOR ME!!! I HAVE SOMEWHERE TO GO AND MY LIFE IS OH-MY-GOD SOOOOOOOO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!! And I tied for fifth in "Invalid Item"  , which I consider to be an accomplishment, being a newb and what. And, I just got back from smoking yummy strawberry hookah and eating hummus. Yay for me. Did you know Amy Lowell was big on the hookah? She was so damn cool. More on Ms. Lowell later.  |
| So, this weekeend I want to get some writing done. I keep saying that, but nothing pulls through. I really wish I knew how to write poetry, or at least poetry I could look back on with some amount of dignity. Sometimes I think I don't even like poetry. Gah, I don't know. WHEN IS MY DePAUL LETTER GOING TO COME?! |
| I'm currently knee deep in a vampire story! Who woulda thunk it? Definately not my genre! But I'm having sooo much fun! A friend and I are RPing it currently and it's so lovely watching the log grow! Such a satisfying thing, to be wrapped up in a grand old project! |
| I just got done with a very detailed review/analysis and I feel like it was a job well done. I mean, how many people leave critical 4000 + character reviews? Who even reviews documents of 4 chapters as an editor, not just a reader? I feel very satisfied and happy right now. I love to edit!! Hee. If anyone ever wants anything editted, I would love to. |
| Why is the interactive stories section here comprised almost oompletely of shrinking/fat stories? Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about w.com or anything, just people in general. Those stories are just sad and don't comment well on writers today. Well, whatever, I'm cracking down and writing a bunch today. I think I'm going to try a 2-hour stint and just write and write and write as much as I can, maybe play with a few prompts, maybe not. I think it will be a good excersize. |
| Do you know what drives me absolutely bat shit, up-the-wall crazy? People that speak in netspeak on a WRITING website. Honestly. Some of the forum posts I've come across have made me cringe. I'm not saying my grammar is always perfect (though it is darn near close) but it's not hard to spell 'though'. It's really not. And it's really not 'tho'. Why bother coming to a writing website (even with the hope of improving) and not using any sort of correct grammar/spelling/etc. in forum posts and bios? I just don't get it. Consider my mind most utterly boggled. Did you know 'boggling' is hipster slang for throwing up? Funny, eh? |
| I feel like writing utter crap tonight. Just vent writing. Fiction about nothing. Characters that I make to identify with personally. I don't feel like composing or thinking of making deep characters or broad, wide connections and dynamic parallels. I hate writing like that. I have files and files and pages and pages of that and I don't like what I wrote. It's like some digusting comfort food of something, bad writing. I feel like writing trashy emo poetry. I need to get out of this weird funk and actually write something worthwhile. Hooboy. |
