Finally got up the nerve to join and post.
Hoping it helps me become strong enough to write my own material.
No words of wisdom just now.
My spirit animal is a muppet...
UPDATED: I really do wish I had some words of wisdom to share. No, really. Unfortunately I don't think that will happen until I finish my story, Love's Divine.
UPDATED 09-01-2008: Thank you everyone who has subscribed and posted reviews :) I deeply appreciate it. I'm so sorry for the delays. Life is happening which means job layoff drama :( However, I am plugging away at Chapter 3 and hope to get it done by the end of the month although it could take longer. Please hang in there. Thanks again!
UPDATED 09-14-2008: I was trolling the web and wanted to see whether or not my story showed up in Google searches. Imagine my surprise when I saw it listed in the Excellence in Superman Fan Fiction section! WOW! Thank you for that fantastic vote of confidence. I hope I can keep plugging and not disappoint you by leaving the story unfinished. My goal is to finish it at chapter 10. So everybody please sent out a hope/prayer/postive vibe that I can do it.
Also, I figured since I have some free time on my hands I'd update my profile section.
1. Favorite Fan Fic Genres:
Labyrinth
Superman (of course :) )
Blood Ties (I mean honestly, Henry had the best hair this side of Jareth!)
2. Favorite Fan Fic Authors:
Okay of course the incomparable K.L. Morgan who broke my heart when she stopped work on the sequel to A Forefeit of Dreams. K.L., you took my breath away! When I wasn't blown away reading your work I was green with envy thinking "Damnit! Why hadn't I thought of that?! Lol...
Then there is Clairecheaux with the jaw-dropping Kal-El's Journal. Holy moly!! If you haven't discovered this yet run don't walk to the fan fiction section of The Planet http://www.bluetights.net/theplanet/showthread.php?t=19253. You will literally laugh and cry reading this. It's as if she took Superman from black and white to full-blown technicolor. You'll never see Superman the same way again. (Again, why didn't I think of this?! lol...)
I have to give a shout out to Alphie who was the first must-read Superman fan fic author I discovered. Being Jason White and In the Shadow of My Father are just...she created a whole world. Wow. I was reading it again and remembering just how much you inspired me to write my own. Every time I read her work I feel like I'm watching a whole otehr movie. Moreover, she's taken a critical but minor character and made him three-dimensional. And she did it without resorting to cliche. My hat is off to you.
3. Why the title? Why Love's Divine?: The title comes from Seal's song. For me, the lyrics describe where Clark's psyche is at in this story.
Then the rainstorm came, over me
And I felt my spirit break
I had lost all of my, belief you see
And realized my mistake
But time threw a prayer, to me
And all around me became still
I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
