![]() Author has written 2 stories for Teen Titans. To be honest I'm not sure what I should put here. I'm not really even sure I should put anything here at all. Does anyone even read these? Well I should probably put some actually finished fics on the site before I start putting stuff on this profile. Maybe then there'd actually be someone who gives a damn about anything I have to say... Not sure whether that'll ever happen to be honest. News about fics I've posted. 2 for Teen Titans: Breaking the Name & Firestorm 1 for Winx Club: Ill-definition of Dichotomy Let's be honest if you're reading this you probably already know the deal. I've lost all interest in all 3 of those. One I actually removed outright. The two for Teen Titans I started like 9 years ago, maybe? It was a long time ago, I don't write like that anymore AND I don't think like that anymore. I don't think I could finish those if you held a gun to my head. I'd take them down but I feel like I should have something up here. I should write a few oneshots or something and then take them down to be honest. If anybody is still a fan of either of those and wants to take them over go ahead. Seriously doubt that there are any takers on that front but ya never know, right? To be honest my view point on Robin, Terra, Raven, and BeastBoy have all changed since I started Breaking the Name and I just can't think of it as anything but BAD, now. Firestorm, I've known what the next chapter needs to be for YEARS and I just can't write it. It's big and game-changing and I have to create an entire post apocalyptic landscape and factions and all kinds of shit and it's just too big for me and I've been too long removed from the project and I just don't think I could do it and have it be good. Sorry. IoD? Basically for the entire extent of my downtime as a writer, which has been most of my life, let's be honest. I've just imagined all my fic ideas in my head. I play them out as psychodramas, or daydreams for those of you who've never taken pysch., from beginning to end and then move on to the next one. Well with Ill-definition of Dichotomy I started on one, set in the Winx universe which was supposed to be about the political and societal structure of the world, in Winx. It centered on an OC whose actions would drag the rest of the cast sideways FROM (in my opinion-) retarded-saturday-morning-cartoon-villain-of-the-week-light-vs-dark-showdown-debacles into a world of political and criminal intrigue... Yeah I flubbed that shit. HARD. I started it in my head and I got into it a ways and then went to myself, "Hey this is good! I should WRITE this!" That was a mistake, since I refused to start at the beginning like I should have and just started at the point I was at in my head. Because the flow of things is a fucking hell of a lot faster when it's just in your head. As it turns out IDEAS are a lot sleeker and more fleet-of-foot than WORDS. Words are finicky and you have to find the right ones and you have to put them in the right meter and syntax and structure and all the other things I'm forgetting at the moment. Ideas flow like free-form music: you sit at a piano or keyboard or guitar or whatever and you just play. You just DO it you don't think about it. It just comes and then it's GONE. Like dust in the wind. Writing by comparison is like building a wall one brick at a time. It's slow. Methodical. It makes me frantic, to be honest. I want to make progress. I've got IDEAS dammit. Let's GO. But first I have to describe the atmosphere of the room, the tone of the setting, introduce the players, explain where they are and everything they're doing. I literally just yesterday sat down to write a fic about an epic showdown between BeastBoy and The Brain; and I had this whole grand THING planned in my head and FIRST thing I had to do was STRUGGLE to describe the room that BeastBoy groggily wakes up in. I was gonna label it Action/Suspense... That's how epic it was gonna be. Full on first class blockbuster action movie adventure. Explosions, chases, intrigue, romance(maybe), danger, excitement; and I can't even describe the first scene... I know what it should be but I just can't make the words work. It makes me wonder whether I'm cut out to do this. Of course; I'm, in point of fact, not doing it, so yeah. The wannabe poet in me thinks the name I chose for this site is thickly amusing; considering everything I produce is unfinished, illformed, and will probably make you sick should you be unwise enough to ingest it anyway... God, I'm such a melodramatic ponce. UPDATE: Many years later and I still agree with the above...but now for something something yadda yadda Fun Quotes: "Silence, squirrel.

"Yep, it's all smooth sailing from here on out," Xander said, as he entered the hotel room only to find he was already there. "Hello, me," his doppelganger told him cheerfully. "Hello, Murphy," Xander said. "Was I too cheerful? Did my faint hope of having everything go right for once summon you?" -Yet Again Still Even More Fragments by dogbertcarroll here on |
