Just created a Twitter page! Hah! I've never been one for networking sites or anything similar... but for some reason, today I just felt like it, you know?

The link for my profile should be on top of this page...where it says homepage or whatever? If it's not there yet, just look me up, my username is TediousCreation.

These are the links for the dresses described in chapter 15 of AN.

Daphne's robe and my version of what she, sort of, looks like: (it's actually a dress, but the robes described in the story are based on the dress in this picture) http:///img16/5594/fionaparkinsonji8.jpg

The rest of the robes and dresses described in the story were made up, so I have no pictures for them.

I got news, guys, my old computer went *poof* (a macbook, by the bys) and I had to buy another one. I went back to Windows, bought a Dell. They had great prices on Brandsmart for Memorial Day (bought an awesome Dell for 600 that was normally about 800 or so.) I'm still getting used to it, but the point is that it's gonna take me a while to get in another chapter... sorry.

ps: by the way, I always wonder if anyone reads these little notes, so, if anyone who reads my story is reading this, when I finally update, please let me know in a review that you read this note. (keyword: cookiecutter)

I can't believe it's been so long since I updated my profile... here's the deal... I've been dealing with a lot of stuff that left me feeling really "blah" about the internet, and even the computer. I haven't felt like doing anything... so, the problem is that my head's a mess now, and I'm completely lost with my own story, it almost feels like it doesn't even belong to me. So, I spent a while printing it out, and I'm gonna be going over it, and highlighting the important bits, and stuff, and then I'm going to write another chapter.

I realize there's a bunch of stuff that makes my story a bit confusing sometimes, and it's because I'm not exactly planning it. So, instead of rewriting it, which would be a pain, and I'd just end up abandoning it if I tried, I'll look up bits and pieces of information that I might have mentioned once, and then never again, or stuff I might have contradicted in other chapters, and I'll make sure I find a place for this stuff in newer chapters. Get it? Because someone mentioned that Lucius said he was going to use Hermione, and then in another chapter he was just planning on killing her, maybe, and I sorta did the same with other stuff, not that I noticed... so I need to find any inconsistencies like that, and fix them, through my own writing in future chapters, instead of through rewrite, which i would never do unless I was getting paid. XD

anyways, that's it. it'll take a while to update, so i apologize, again...

My HP story is officially on hiatus. Sorry. (seriously, sorry) I wish I could work on it, but... I'm... dealing with some stuff, and because of it, the words, the thoughts, even, don't wanna show themselves... I can't even think about the story, even though I feel like I wanna write it, and I totally have a plot and several ideas for it... the words just won't come... I'll totally go back to it, eventually, though, I promise! Think of it as... summer vacation... or whatever... because I do have a plot planned, sorta... I have ideas that I know I want to include in the story, that's for sure.

Hi, everyone. I'm not taking my story out of hiatus status just yet, but I wanted to let you know that I do eventually want to finish it. Aside from dealing with some personal stuff, I'm also studying for my entrance exams right now, so i can't really focus on anything else. The date for my entrance exams is October 31, on my bday! can you believe it? I know I chose the date myself, but it was the soonest I could take it, and I want to get it out of the way, you know? because if I fail, then I gotta study more, take a class, and they'll give me another date, but I can't take too long with that because I want to start in March next year, and I don't want to cut it too close with that.

Anyways, wish me luck! (it's math and reading comprehension, I'm bad at math... like, really, really bad...) anyone know a good website I can use to study? (that's free...) I promise if (when) I pass the exam, I'll focus on updating AN.

I finally updated! I'm doing really bad at the University right now, and I'm in between jobs...so basically, I had nothing much to do, and I decided to finally update. Let's hope even when I start doing well at the Uni and I get a new job, I still update, right?

July 08, 2012

I'm pretty sure I'm updating tomorrow. I'm using word, and I have like 10 and a half pgs written. So, I'm close to updating. I have a day off tomorrow, so I would definitely bet on an update.
