PROFILE
Joel Garay (noun): A very random seventeen year old who likes to say and do crazy things. Hobbies include writing stories and poetry, acting in school plays and local theatre productions, taking midnight joyrides, singing in the shower as loud as possible, playing soccer, and practicing Tae Kwon Do.
July 22, '07: I have writer's block. However, it is only for one story which unfortunately is the one I want to finish first... "Make Your Move". I know a lot of the people who read that story are going to be upset about that but I just can't can't come up with good material right now. And I would rather wait for good material than just write whatever. Therefore I am officially putting that story on hiatus. Be on the lookout for "You Know You Hate Me". That one is going to be updated more frequently because I am having a burst of creativity for that story. So check on that story and see if you like it. It is a Troy x Ryan story!
August 13, '07: Okay, so I have updated "You Know You Hate Me" and I have over a hundred reviews for that story which makes me incredibly happy! "Make Your Move" is still on hiatus but not permanently. So keep your fingers crossed that I get the creative inspiration to continue some time soon!
Also, I've gotten a lot of reviews about readers liking the diversity in my stories (such as Ryan/OC pairings, parents getting married, etc.), so I challenge everyone to write more SLASH stories that are original in some way. Put Ryan with Jason or put Zeke with Troy. Have your pairing be stuck in a shootout or run into each other at a rave. Do something creative and make a story that's just fun!
August 14, '07: I am in the preparation stages of launching a brand new story for HSM that is not SLASH. I have been dying to write it and get it on fanfiction just because the ideas have been bugging me for a while. I know I have two other stories that I need to worry about but I'm a writing junkie. I can't help but produce more and more stories! So be on the lookout for "You're Everything I Want".It's an AU story where Gabriella and Sharpay are best friends and they're both filthy rich. Then Troy comes into the picture and blows it all to pieces.
September 12, '07: I have good news for all of my readers. "Make Your Move" is no longer on hiatus! I am currently writing the next chapter and I am writing the next chapter of "You Know You Hate Me". Hopefully, they will both be updated by Sunday. So get your reveiws in and your votes casted before it's too late to put in a suggestion. Cause I do actually take everyone's advice in consideration believe it or not.
October 10, '07: I just wanted to let you all know that I haven't abandoned the stories! I'm just really busy right now and the stories have been put on the backburner during that time. Plus, these next chapters are building up to big things and I'm being a perfectionist about them. I promise the wait will be worth it. Just hang in there a little bit longer! Thanks!
December 31, '07: Thanks for hanging in there and reading my stories. As many of you have guessed. "Make Your Move" has been on hiatus for the longest time. I am changing that as soon as I post the fourteenth chapter of "You Know You Hate Me". That story will be my focus until I update it. Thanks for reading and reviewing. It really means a lot when I can read all of your input. Thanks again!
January 23, '08: "Make Your Move" and "You Know You Hate Me" are coming along wonderfully and I shall have an update for both of those within the next week. SO be excited about that. Also, I have created a joint account with rhapsodysenigma and the author name is and we are currently working on five brand new stories. We haven't posted any of them but when we do I will be sure to let you know! Please check out our stories when they're posted so that we can have some support. It would really mean a lot to us! Thanks.
January 29, '08: Alas, I am working on the next chapter for "You Know You Hate Me" and I am currently working on two brand new stories that will be launched sometime in the next month or so. Also, my joint account with rhapsodysenigma, which is spikefluff, has posted a brand new story so check that out. I think its going to be a really good first fic for two writers who have never written a story with anyone else before. Check it out. Please?
March 16, '08: I have updated "You Know You Hate Me" and I am currently working on the next chapter for "Make Your Move". So be on the lookout for that. Also, be on the lookout for a new story called "I Fell In Love With The DJ". Its another HSM slash fic but its not set in high school. Its set a couple years later when everyone's in their early twenties. The pairing will be _ and _. Lol. Again, thanks for all of your support!
March 19, '08: I am currently working the next chapter for "You Know You Hate Me" so be on the lookout for that. "Make Your Move" is also in the works for an update!
April 1, '08: I am still working on updating both of my stories. So don't think I've abandoned them! Hopefully, I'll get an update out by this weekend.
April 21, '08: "Make Your Move" is coming along well, I'm trying to finish planning out all the storylines so I can update a lot faster and not have writer's block in between all the updates. "You Know You Hate Me" is due for another update sometime this week. I can't be sure when but just be on the lookout for that!
May 26, '08: I am on an indefinite hiatus.
June 22, '08: I'm back! "Make Your Move" is being updated immediately but "You Know You Hate Me" is still not being updated. Sorry!
June 27, '08: Yay! I have finished/completed "Make Your Move"! That makes me so happy that you just don't understand. Please check it out and review!
July 2, '08: I am hard at work on my three new stories: "I Fell In Love With The DJ", "A Kiss Goodbye", and "Come and Get It". Give me about a week and I should have updates for all three. Thanks!
July 11, '08: I am still working on my three new stories. Don't think I've forgotten. Its just that it is taking me a lot longer to write these chapters than I thought. Have patience!
July 15, '08: Everything is going smoothly. Obviously its been more than the promised time of updates but that's ok. I'd rather wait months - like with YKYHM - than just write some stuff to update. So keep checking back on this page for update notices!
