I'm always surprised by the odd things that are talked about. I usually find myself up to all hours of the night no matter what I have to do in the morning. I only get up to an hour of sleep most times anyway, which isn't good I know, but I have an abundance of energy that just isn't focused correctly, and when it is....whoo! Anyways, I have a few Newsletters to write. I'll probably go respond to something else here, lol. Procrastination is a gift.

[Zephyr Shenkiken]

Lol sure, we'll go with the loosest definition of gift for that one

[Quaddy]

Eastern over here!

And you can stay up late talking to me, Mynt. I will never bother with getting myself a professional job. Too boring.

[Mynt]

Yay, omg, Quaddy!

[Quaddy]

YAY! Mynt and Quaddy conversations are deliciously random.

[Mynt]

Oh my yes. I went to the first meeting of my newfound writing group today. It was interesting. We sat around for three hours and half of us wrote while the other half of us tried unsuccessfully to do so. xD

[Quaddy]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say you believe you are the unsuccessful one...

[Mynt]

Oh I totally am.

[Quaddy]

Clearly you need a dose of...I dunno. Ideas? I'm not sure what you need a dose of.

Except this here forum!

Of course, everyone else has a life...so...you've only got me.

[Zephyr Shenkiken]

I don't want a life. It's not as fun as the popular kids said it was.

[Mynt]

But I like you, sos it's okay.

I think I need a dose of whatever youve got that lets you type up like nine pages in one day.

[Quaddy]

It only happens when I'm really, really inspired. Or when I'm so damn well organized, I practically have the thing written up already.

There are tons of days I write next to nothing.

[Mynt]

I wanted to write so many words a day but I often find that I dont have enough material to meet the word count. xD

[Quaddy]

Sometimes that happens. If it does, I either keep going or I go back and add something.

[Mynt]

I'll have to try doing that. I usually just go "oh guess I'm done then."

[Quaddy]

You're not actually done until your story is written, right? That's how I figure it.

[Zephyr Shenkiken]

Dude, I've never seen anyone write like Quaddy lol. You know she's up to twelve pages already in her next add for Anti-Hero?

[Quaddy]

Well, I'm splitting it in half, so six pages are for round two and the other six are for round three.

Aaaaand I'm already planning on how to get around my own logic to have Mykel join Lyn later.

[Mynt]

I knew a girl in one of my writing classes that could write endlessly, but only if she was drunk. Her writing was so awesome too.

[Quaddy]

Man. Lucky...

I can only write if I'm inspired or very very organized and planned to hell.

[Zephyr Shenkiken]

Lol Quaddy. I didn't realize you were such a drill sergeant to yourself with your writing. I guess it makes sense though. That must be why it comes out so clean.

[Quaddy]

I am. I should also be a lot better about writing down/typing the scenes that pop into my head. I've a tendency to act them out and then forget what I said. I remember the gist, but not the actual words...

[Zephyr Shenkiken]

I do the acting out part (when I am very much alone) and it helps me feel out the characters and stuff.

[Quaddy]

*nods* The characters I am able to act out CONVINCINGLY are the ones I have the easiest time writing for. Mia is one of them and so is Lyn as they're very similar. Except Mia wouldn't break...she'd have killed Abner years ago and put someone else on the throne. Namely herself.

[Mynt]

I forgot what order to add to things.
