RECENT NEWS/UPDATES/STUFF:

12/14/11

A couple of notes before I head off to bed...

1). I just recently played through MW3 and I need to make a couple of changes to Sanctuary in a Prison before I continue on with what I have. Just things here and there before I screw myself over later on XD

2). School is done next week and hopefully I get to do more with my lovely month and a half break :) Knowing my group...we're gonna be stuck playing Domination on MW3

3). Another big emphasis on the first point :D Really...I'm gonna take time off to look over the plot, characters and other tidbits before continuing. So chapter 3 is on a hold.

4). Along with Points 1 and 3, if needed, I'm gonna have to edit the first two chapters; nothing major btw. :)

5). I've got the internet back :D OH SWEET GOODNESS!!!

And hello pillow! I've missed you all day...

Please review guys! It'll help motivate me in reading what you guys have to say about my stories!

Why don't you write/update as much?

You, as a fanfic writer, have to know where your priorities lie; for me, it's my schooling. I try to write something when I have the free time, but my social/personal life typically clashes with my hobbies. I'm not a professional writer and this is but a hobby for me. I have a life outside the computer and I'm not on it 24/7. If I'm on it for long periods of time, it's because I'm doing something school related. Okay, I tend to get sidetracked and check my social networks, but that's it!

I'm usually good at handling these questions, but when it comes to idle threats about: "Oh, you're not updating. I'm giving up on you. You were SUCH a good writer!" or "Get off your lazy a-- and do something about your stories! I'll stop reading your stuff if you don't update/publish!" then that's where I draw the line.

I'm not forcing you to stick with me. As a reader, you have the freedom to choose who you want to follow and what you want to read. If you can't handle that, then that's something you need to look at yourself. Please don't drag the others who are patiently waiting down with you on the day where I'll say "I have had enough."

Why do you write about OCs? Aren't they Mary Sues or Gary Stus?

I can argue on this most definitely. I write OCs because whenever I read or watch something, I like to envision a huge WHAT IF. What if there was another character added to the mix; how would that affect the story and the other characters? What if this character was paired up with this character; how would that work out? Don't get me wrong, I love where everything is going most of the time, but the writer inside me can't help but try to give it a twist. After all, what is the purpose of FF.net again if we're denied this ability?

OCs are like children, you have to mold them into a person that could pass off as; possibly like someone in that society or even here. It'll always be up to the author in which direction they can take a character. They can make them perfectly flawed (like us human beings) or just plain perfect (and tell me again...who is?). Most authors hold this prejudice that all OCs are perfect characters, but if they are given flaws like normal people, then they are generally accepted. Again, this all depends on how the author plays them out.
