Alright then.

Well, I've been sick for eight days at this point and I am SO over it. In addition, the internet has shut down in my flat (temporarily due to some Issues, but it'll be back in a few days) which of course send me into spasms of OMGWTFBBQ and not being able to do anything. However, despite this I did manage to get my assignment in on time yesterday, if several hundred words below the word limit. >_>

What else is going on, well. Hmm. I am at the public library in town today. I WAS going to finish typing up chapter 7 of DMTs but I didn't bring the right writing book. >:| I looked at the start of chapter whatever of BtS but... gosh, I've got three different starts and they're all GOOD but at the same time none of them quite work. *gives up for now* As such, I'm really just sitting here waiting to be inspired.

BUT NOT ah fuck, now it's come back. I got this inspiration for a Supernatural story the other day. It's very... evil. The idea is for eggpreg!Dean (i.e. Dean is a man-shaped chicken... or maybe a penguin... ANYWAY) and he all doesn't realise it at first and starts nesting and rummaging through Walmart trying to find appropriate items and Sam's all, "Dude, what the hell are you doing?" ... @_@ I really want to write it, but it's EVIL and I don't really feel like I should randomly attack another fandom that I have so little experience with. (Having only watched four episodes of Spn, I kind of feel like it's not my place.) But at the same time, I don't want to annoy my favourite writers by just randomly emailing them with this basket of crack. SIGHZ! But... it just HAS to be written, by SOMEONE!?! RIGHT???

Okay, that totally sounds like I'm turning him into a bird, which I am NOT. We don't have Nyquil in New Zealand so I'm not really sure what that is, but I can't even blame it on the drugs because I didn't take any. *cries* I have actually started to write it now. If I can't get it right I will pass it off to another author. ^_^ I'm a sucker for punishment or something, 4 serious!

Welcome to the internet, by the way! A world full of jargon and insanity awaits you! What fandoms are you into? I could point you towards some recs.

If you'd like input on writing anything you're working on before you post it, I'd love to help. I am not offering to write because I totally suck at creative writing. I've been told my writing style is consistent with 15th century English speakers. What an ego booster. I wanted to "fix" that so I took several creative writing classes only to be told by many instructors poetry is actually my strength. What the hell? I can't stand the stuff! Of course, I have a flair for something I have no passion for.

I really love anything high fantasy. I'm into anything vampire, wizard, demon or hobbit. I'm hooked on Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files right now. Haven't looked for any fandom writing yet.
