Welcome to Gaia! ::

One of my friends, you can ask her if she want's to. She really like to RP, but I kinda failed her horribly. Umm... what was her username again... ah.

Shoot her a message. She'll probably join if it means she can RP. I don't really remember what her preferences are though. It's been a while.

I kept forgetting to reply to her. I would save the message because I was busy and not remember it for days on end. Then finally when she sent me a message asking what happened I would remember and reply. We'd RP for a bit then one of us would get off and I would get busy again. It was just a crap shoot in the end.

That was the first time I'd ever done that. I've had it happen to me before but I've never done it. It felt a little strange, it bothered me far more then I would have liked. I've been so consumed with writing recently though, the RP we have going is the first one that I've done since.

The thing is, I don't know when I'll be busy. I write mostly on the weekends but I have no idea when a story idea will just appear in my head. Then my mind is all but taken over by the idea and everything else takes a step back. I have a notebook full of novel ideas that I never really thought on because I didn't want to. Because I was busy with work, with RPs, with school, with life. It's all kinda horrible, I'm sure with a little more work I could have a few published works out of that notebook.

I just need to go to the library, take out a couple books or read them there. I need to read more professionaly written works so I have a better reference for story telling. I can put together a great story but they always feel like they are missing something. I need a professional editor, someone that will nitpick all the little things. Fuss over the premise and in general give me hard time when it's just not working. It's hard to find someone who will tell you that kind of stuff when they like your writing.

I guess they're all afraid that telling me it doesn't work will make me stop... the fact that they won't tell me what they really think makes it worse not better.

Well, then... in that case. Once I start writing my works outside of fanfiction, might you be willing to be my editor of sorts. Since I fully intend to start submitting to some Literary magazines, and once I get a novel finished I intent to submit it to some agents.

The thing is, I need to know when things aren't working. I know I have problems with emotion in my writing. They seem to lack it, however, I am getting better at it. It will be a little while, depending on when I finish the longest of my current plot bunnies in fanfiction.

It might be as late as October until you get anything out of me. I just started a new story about a month and half ago on Dokuga, and it's looking to be another three-four months until it's done.

I will, you too.

And writing can be rushed, sometimes it's best if it's rushed because the author can't keep worrying over things. They have to just write, when one starts picking out the little things to much it can cause problems.
