Chaaaaaapter 65.

[valis2]

I've uploaded chapter 65! I'm so happy! So tired! Friend says it's great, and that makes me so very, very happy. I do think this arc is the best part of the whole story so far. Too bad it took so long to get to!

Anyway, will hop over and check out the flist one more time, and then it's to bed.

Oh, to wake up to a review or two, that would be bliss...

Oh, btw, I'm about a month away from my First LJ Anniversary, and I am planning on writing a little happy thing about everyone on my flist (much like this entry). If you don't want me to say something positive about you, let me know before April 15th. Comment here, e-mail me, something, and I won't say a peep about you. Otherwise, you're fair game.

Oh, dear, don't bag out your own work - there are plenty of teh super cool twelve year old fan girls to do that for you. Though I have been known to bag my own work out after every chapter upload. This is apparently my emotional writing chart:

1. I've written a new chapter - yay - life is good.
2. I have uploaded it, - oh, no - I have doubts. Did I get word number 11286 in paragraph number 345 spot on?
3. I hate fan fic.
4. I have ignored it for 24 hours, have read it again, and am satisifed.
5. I like fan fic. The world is once again cloudy and grey (because I don't like summer).

This according to not_a_disgrace (who knows me well). :-D

1. Wow! This is a great chapter! I love everything!
2. Oops! I missed that typo! I missed a shout-out!
3. Why isn't it showing up on the archives yet?
4. Yay! Review!
5. Oh, unintelligible review! Well, at least someone's reading.
6. My story sucks. What was I thinking? No one reads this pairing.
7. Why is this chapter still not up at FictionAlley?
8. I hate writing. Why did I think this was a great chapter? Argh!
9. (few days go by) Hey, this isn't half bad!
10. Wow! A new chapter...it's great! I love everything!

Oh, joy! It isn't only me who suffers like this. Well, that must mean we're normal. :-D

I forgot to ask - how long have you been writing this story for? And, is there an end in sight?

I uploaded my first chapter to ffnet on 3-8-04, so it's been a year...so I'm averaging a chapter a week, even though I've gone for about four months of that year total.

The end is nigh! Another 15-20 chapters at the very most. I've finished a climactic arc, and there will be some more development, and then the last climactic arc, and then I'll be done. *whew*

Y'know, there was this entry on the flist, and I saw the icon and just assumed it was you and wrote this chatty little reply, and was wondering why you weren't responding, and then I realized that it was actually themostpotente's entry. *headdesk*

I did that twice last year - and was ignored both times. I sometimes don't look at my lj for days, and when I do, I open up a few browser windows with various f-list entries on them, and the main f-list window, and I try to respond to all the interesting entries at once... Binge commenting does not work very well - I think I've learnt my lesson.

"Binge commenting"! You crack me up.

Bizarrely enough I received the comment e-mail for this and for themostpotente's reply at the very same time...*insert spooky music here*
