Can I just say that I was amazed by the sheer brilliant creativity that resulted from startrekbigbang last year, and that I am beyond excited to see what this fandom produces in a couple of months? I doubt I have experienced a fandom as talented as this one before. To everyone out there participating in …

Ahhh, my brain feels like it’s in a pinball machine. Summer cold. You know what sucks? When it’s already hot outside and then you get a fever and you can’t feel the cold air from the A/C. And, Spock, please stop talking. Just. Stop. He’s such a damned diligent-stubborn Vulcan. Yes, I’m writing. Must save …

To everyone who answered my post on why do we write? – you all had very thoughtful responses! I love that we think alike and go through similar frustrations and sometimes need encouragement. I thank you for your encouragement. I do not intend to stop writing anytime soon but my mind has been distracted, almost …

It’s National Book Week. The rules: Grab the closest book to you. Go to page 56. Copy the 5th sentence as your status. Don’t mention the book. Post these rules as part of your post. “If I were a spirit, I am sure I would want for a dark and quiet place.”

I rarely make posts like this but today… today I am having doubts. (It’s just been one of those days where you seem in a slump. Sigh.) I’ve been asking myself why I bother to write. So I pose the question to you all: Why do we write?

…IS IT WORKING AGAIN?

I think I speak for all of the poor souls of the Star Trek fandom who had to endure days of frustrated error messages while trying to access fic and community fun when I say OH GOD, WHHYYYY? I know I suffered! I have to say, I’m feeling rather grateful for the LJ maintenance team …

Brain Went on Vacation

No worries, I’m not exactly missing. Once I finished my epic, my brain decided to take a break. I have been attempting to coax it back but it’s very, very stubborn and, I suspect, preoccupied with random Korean dramedies, soap operas, and Bruce Greenwood – the actor who played Captain Christopher Pike in the STXI …

365th Post

This writing journal began a little over one year and one month ago. This is the 365th post since that time. It occurs to me that there shall come a day when this journal is abandoned and floating in cyberspace. Once a site is no longer maintained, links tend to break and pages to disappear; …

Guh, my craving is back. K/S/M. I go through these bouts where I need, need, need some good fics of the trio – slash or really strong friendship. I’ll browse the k/s/m archive (which I try to keep updated), knowing that what’s there can only tide me over – because I’ve read it all before …

The Writer’s Life?

This is the writer’s life for me! LOL. I’m spending the holiday weekend at some of my family’s beachhouse. The sea breeze and sunshine are very conducive for story writing. I also had ample time during the drive to my destination to invent an entire crazy scene for Along Comes a Stranger. :D I hope …

I’ve been waiting patiently for this journal’s first year anniversary… and it passed me by. LOL. So I guess we’ll celebrate late today because I renewed my LJ’s paid account. :) Here’s to a productive first year in the ST fandom! 53 fics, totaling ~600k words. HAPPY 1st ANNIVERSARY!! *feels like partying but sadly has …

Here are some updates which you may or may not care about… 1. Today I am going to see Priest. This is vital to my well-being, as Karl has gold eyes and fangs. 2. I dreamt of Part Six for Along Comes a Stranger last night. I have it outlined already. We are going to …

A Few Words from

Why/How do you write your stories, and what advice would you give on writing? If I didn’t begin my answer with some literary device – a silly metaphor, for instance – you might not realize how egotistical I am. I am a writing toddler, having just discovered that my brain has the capacity to invent …
