Food for thought

I'm feeling oddly philosophical right now for some reason. I feel like thinking about what FanFiction, or just Fiction in general means. I'm gonna go on a bit of a rant here. If you feel like reading my theories that I am coming up with now, read on. A bit of warning though, it's not very organized, as I write these thoughts as they come to mind.

Hey everyone CRIL and boy is vacation.....different. I'm currently under the fight of trying not to overdo myself with too much ideas (some of you probably know what happened *cough* failed *cough*). Another thing I'm doing is spending time with my little sister watching Thats 70s Show which helped understand of getting the setting for Blossom Creek (can you guess the time setting "hint hint") and having a super difficult time migrating from one pc to another after my laptop commited suicide awhile back and thank ryu for showing me dropbox and docs or else i would MIA. Anyways, rehearsals and other school stuff are beginning to get into my free tome January 2012 so Ill be behind even more.....yay. Hopefully everyone has an awesome new year and ready for finals and other important things that just makes people all freaking out.

Currently working

• Cringe (finale)
• Our War Game
• Night Ember
• Blossom Creek
• War Song (in planing stage)
• Possesed
• Broken Harmonies (song
• Maybe a script???
• Parody of escape (maybe)

Hmmm… Well, Happy Holidays! Let's see, my ramblings today include the following topics:

• Pure Chaos Interactive?
• Transformations Galore
• Holidays

Fall semester OVER!

We're on break until January. Which means I now have the time to do other things like work on my stories I am never taking four project intensive classes again even if I found the challenge invigorating. I lost all of my free time because I actually tried in these courses. And it paid off I currently have a 4.0! WOOT I'm so HAPPY! Now I'm off to work on my stories. So happy. so very happy.

The Finall chapters

Hello everyone! CRIL here (aka the guy with the shiny pencil) and boy do I have alot to say. First of all, I'm happy to join The Wannabe Writers and I hope I'll get along with the others well. Onto business, its official; the second to last chapter of Cringe is in the works at the moment. As some or little of you may know, Cringe is part of the Escape that focuses on a group of teenagers trying to well...escape this mischievous organization and eventually fight back. Hopefully that the last two chapters will be successful as the story's predecessor, Escape and the same as the next installment that is coming soon. I will soon put up the next installment's main song I wrote called "Saviors" around the same time as the final chapter which is very late December 2011 or early January 2012.

In other news, Our War Game will reach its end sometime in early 2012 and there is still a chance for anyone to submit an OC so please submit! Night Ember had just started and has already gotten the OMG this is depressing review (i loved those cause its ironic im super happy when i write dark, depressing stories) and hopefully that this story will reach it full potential when it reaches its ending.

Oh yeah I'm also thinking of an Our War Game sequel that might appear during or after the final installment of the Escape series, but it has developed little or no progress at the moment. One of the ideas I might consider is having new characters, new scenario, and the same Sigma Six. Since it is still undetermined, I really cannot say much at the moment. Speaking of new stories, I have about three under the process (either typing and/or in the beginning stages) that one is planned to appear in January/February 2012 on Fanfiction and another in December 2011 or January 2012 on DeviantArt.

Currently working:

Cringe chapters 9& 10

Our War Game chapter 7

Night Ember chapter 5

Possessed (DeviantArt, 2011/2012)

Saviors (chapter 1, 2011(?)/2012)

Blossom's Creek (working stages, 2012)

Our War Game sequel (????)

Warsong (working stages, 2012)

Procastination is bad

Alright...I admit it. Now as to what I'm admitting to...you'll have to find out! Muahahahaha! *coughcough* Agh...not sure what came over me...Anyways, I haven't even started on Mirrored Eyes chapter 14 or Unescaped Cage chapter 3. The reason for this is simple: I have a lot going on right now, my computer keeps breaking down, I have really really bad headaches, and I can't focus too much on one story at a time. Now...I know most of you think that those are excuses, and trust me, they are. But they also aren't.

Obviously, I can't type when my computer crashes, and, unlike most authors I don't write my chapters ahead. What I post is merely the first draft. I'm seeing how my style gets accepted, what to do, and what not to do. And hey, if I can get feedback other than my family (let's face it, they aren't entirely honest) then that's great! But it also means that I am NOT ALLOWED to edit or fix chapters until the whole story is written out. My parent's rules.

Also, During the winter months I am prone to extremely bad sinus headaches that often end up affecting my school work. Such as now. Right now I'm three days behind in some classes, and obviously, that takes up quite a bit of time.

Now, I think most of you think that just 'cause I don't work on my posted stories means that I haven't written anything when the truth is, I've written nearly everyday since my last update. Up my sleeve I now have a Bowser story, A Super Smash Bros Story, a CROSSOVER between Mario and Naruto, an Oban Star Racers AU fic, and a Phineas and Ferb/Harry Potter fic. Mind you, none of these are completed or even on that first chapter.

Either way, I hope you will forgive me and continue to read. Or if you don't enjoy the wait, enjoy FF.N. OH AND Merry (Early) Christmas!

Hey there, fellow people! Ryu Dragonclaw here, reporting from somewhere!
Since my last post (Wow, this month has sped by), I had decided to make Revenge is A Dish Best Served Frosty into a chaptered story and I posted the next chapter.

This Apple is delicious.

Yes, it is.

Anyways, I might as well get an update out before I forget.

So, what am i going to talk about today?

1. Back home
2. FictionPress and Updates
3. Kirby story?

So, let's start!

I'VE HAD IT.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I mean it with all my heart. Reviewers who review my story should review every chapter and give me feedback. Instead, some people decide to wait for Reviews to the Smashers and submit their questions... and LEAVE. Is my story a place where you can just dump your questions and ditch me? Absolutely not! I've dealt with this for many months, tracing back to when We are the Smashers 1 started. Now, thanks to another review, I can take it no longer. I am forced to REMOVE RTTS FROM THE AIR FOR ONE EPISODE. I'm sorry to have to do this to my fans and to those who actually give me feedback, but it must be done. You don't know the barrage of emotions I received when I finalized my decision. Anger. Sadness. Weariness. Hatred. There was an anger burning inside me that I never knew existed. I could not hold it back, and now I have canceled RttS for one episode after Chapter 20. After doing so, I have been reduced to this shaking wreck that can't even control his emotions. I hope all you reasonable people understand my desperate situation. It's my decision. It's final, and it will be done.

You think I'm mad now? You should have seen the conversation between me and my betas.

How does one force thoughts through cement?

Not very easily I assure you. I've sicker than a dog for 6 weeks sad thing is I cannot miss school because it's final's week an i need to be there to pass which is quite painful. i pass out when i get home so I've forgotten to post so here is a post. i'm just glad i'm still managing to pass my classes with the absences I've accumulated. funny thing is when i get really sick my nose starts bleeding a lot which really freaks the people at school out. especially when i don't react to it because don't even notice my nose is bleeding. Eh 'm gong to go lay back down now cause thinking of things to type makes my brain HURT.

Feeling better now.

Yeah, like the title says, feeling much better now. Though my interest in writing's still low, I have taken up drawing instead. I already have made logos of the groups that are going to be used in my stories, and character pics may follow soon after. It doesn't mean that I'll give up writing entirely. I'll still work on them, though updates are slower that what they are as of now, so I'm sorry for a severe lack of updates to them.

Autopilot

Ever since Aleron revealed to us how he was feeling over Skype, I feel like I've been on autopilot. I can't focus on anything for more than a few minutes, I feel down all the time, and I was even literally worried sick last night. Like I said to him in my comment, I'm worried. I know how easy it is when you feel like that to see everything as a potential way to end your life. And I know from experience that people don't commit suicide because they want to die. They do it because they don't want to live. Because they don't see any reason to keep pushing forward in life. Because they just can't stand the pain anymore. I just want Aleron to get through this, and if you're reading this Aleron, please know that none of what I'm going through right now is your fault. I just need to tell someone before I go completely insane. This isn't something you have to go through alone. We are all here for you. I can't stress that enough.

I think I need help...

Several things to say...

1. Interest:

My interest in writing has been on a steady decline recently, and that isn't the only thing that's been going down. I've been losing interest in video games, my favorite hobby, as well. In response to the first segment, I've also found myself sleeping a lot more than usual, even when I'm not tired. I just seem to find a lot more bliss in my sleep than when I'm awake.

2. Writing:

If and when my interest gets low enough, all of my stories will come to a screeching halt, and be on hiatus for who knows how long. My stories are also interwoven, meaning that some events in several stories will have the main character of said story meeting another of the characters. This is a bad move on my part since I have to plan way ahead for the events to unfold correctly, and as such go through hell trying to correct even the tiniest mistake. The plot bunnies are also constantly biting me, adding even more stress to what I currently have. Having thirteen stories, and however so many one-shots, is a massive load, even for me.

3. Daily Life:

I'm having to put up with a control-nut sister, who is two years younger than me, that pretty much bites my head off for even the simplest mistake. That pretty much puts a limit on what I can do. She even goes as far as limiting on how much I can eat of something she makes. I also get accused of some things I didn't even do at times, pushing me even further. Not only that, but the 'scars' on my mind keep popping up. Personally, I hate horror movies, and if I happen to walk in while my sis is watching a particularly horrific part, that scene is stuck there forever, making it hard for me to sleep at times. Worse yet, she won't turn it off even when I have to eat. My family has a rule that we can't eat anywhere else other than the kitchen and dining room, yet my sis doesn't give two shits about it, and when said horror movies are on, I have to risk punishment just so that I can eat and don't get another mental scar.

...

God....I really do need help....

Thanksgiving Update

Okay, now. In case anyone was wondering, yes, I did in fact post a chapter on Thanksgiving. Chapter 17 was posted as usual, in the morning. However, in case no one read it yet, I politely request that before reading Chapter 18 this Thursday, read Chapter 17 first. There is a side story that goes along with the game plot here, and it's fairly important. Nothing big! Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! And awesome! I'm the first one to say that!

Hmm... not a whole lot going on right now... Let's see, topics... topics...

1. Ultimate Guitar
2. Sonic Generations
3. School
4. Computer

Update.

Okay, seeing that I haven't done a post in a while, I feel like updating today.

First, the Omake chapter I've been working on. It's nearing completion, which I'm glad for since it was taking almost three or so months from start to finish to write it. It will be long, and I'm thinking it would do well as a stand-alone one-shot.

Second, I'm sorry for the lack of updates for my stories over the past month. Writers block, combined with laziness, make for a deadly combo in writing. I am trying my best to work around this, but so far, progress is slow. I am, however, working small bits on all stories, meaning that when I get them done, one or more of my stories might be updated on the same day.

Third, the annoying-as-hell plot bunnies. I am trying to keep them away, put a persistent few keep slipping past. It's because of those that I feel like making a FictionPress acount, which I won't.

That's all I got and I will update as more things pop up.

Updates and Stuff

I have nothing better to do write now, so I'll just update on things that I'm up to.

1. To the Heart
2. Other Stories
3. Thanksgiving Break
4. Toasters
5. My Fish <3

Hello!

Well, I am the Panda Warrior! Hello! As this is my first post, I guess I should let you guys know of my current stories and my planned stories.

Around the web, I am known as Panda Warrior, or Pandakat26, and sometimes by the alternate pen-name Katty Barra. Please feel free to call me any of the above or shortened versions of my names! I enjoy to Roleplay, read, write, draw, play the ALTO saxophone, and dream. I also enjoy to watch Top Gear U.K. (a show about cars)! Yes, I know that that is odd for a 13 year old girl to watch on a daily basis, but I enjoy it!

Currently, I have two stories out on Fanfiction.net. Both are Kirby related fiction and they are titled, Unescaped Cage and the Faint Red Haze , and Mirrored Eyes. Personally, I enjoy U.C.F.R.H much better than Mirrored Eyes but that is simply my opinion.
I also have around three stories in the making, Two are about Super Smash Bros. Brawl, or more specifically, about Master Hand. The other story in the making is about Oban Star Racers, which I have recently fallen in love with!
I also have a novel in the making, so I am generally busy with that as well as all my other ideas.

I know many of you have been patiently awaiting Mirrored 13 since the beginning of Summer, and I almost have it done! Truly! *sigh* I am thinking of how to continue Unescaped Cage and the Faint Red Haze, and I will start that chapter after Mirrored 13 is done. I will most likely post a new chapter to a new story when everything is ready, however, I don't type on one thing for very long as it stresses me out.

I'm on Fanfiction, FictionPress, and Deviantart. If you wish to contact me, please do so! I don't mind! And I don't bite! (>^.^)>
 On both FictionPress and Fanfiction I am Panda Warrior, and on DeviantART I am Pandakat26. If you also wish to contact me on Runescape, I am also Pandakat26 there too!

Quick note* FictionPress will mostly be used to post poetry!


I feel as if I've rattled on long enough, so, well, bye!

Well, I haven't posted for a little while, but now I'm here. I don't have a whole lot to say... let's see here... topics, topics...

1. Voting
2. Computer Issues
3. Sonic Generations
4. Quick Welcome

Why hello there! This is Ryu Dragonclaw typing. Well, this is my first post so I guess I should introduce myself and my stories.

(Electric) Power-Hungry Author

Okay, so I lost power for more than a week thanks to the October Nor'Easter that hit us pretty badly. Yeah. More than a week without heat, hot water, Internet, and everything in between! However, I was still able to upload Chapter 14 at school. I write at least five chapters ahead of time, so no need to worry!
Anyway, if any of you out there were wondering what world Marcus is going to next in WatS 2, it's Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance! Those who read my profile saw the hint to look here!
I plan to list my favorite answers to the Questions of the Chapters in Chapter 20...when I get there.Who knows? You might be listed!
Keep checking to see any more posts from me or the others!

Hey everyone! Look! I'm alive, and more incredible than that, I've made progress on Pure Chaos!
In this post:

• Pure Chaos
• Me at Open Mic Night, who'd of thunk it
• Punishments... :(

It's just a cycle a vicious one at that.

Hiya it's nice to meet you Talon83, Hedgestar, and The Element Commander I know I've already met one of you on Skype thought I haven't been on recently. And, that's because we've been constantly sick the last few weeks at my house. On top of that school is trying to murder me! On the plus side I have a 196% in my biology class and I'm stupidly proud of myself because I thought I was failing. But it turns out I'm not failing any of my classes! OH JOYOUS OF DAYS! THIS IS MY CANTERLOT VOICE! I've also decided that I'm mostly likely going to be teaching science cause I suck less at it than English thought I would probably suck less at spelling if I used my glasses. Making a note of that...okay noted. Anyway I just wanted to say welcome and that writhing class is taking away from my time to actually write my stories.

ps. I'm very close to hurling my computer out a window because of the keyboard. And household illness is a vicious, vicious cycle.

Hmmm... Things to talk about today...

1. "The Story Board" Changes
2. Awards
3. My Day
4. Sonic Generations
5. Mention story
6. My "Let's Play"

Hello everyone! I am that new person mentioned on the last blog. My name is Hedgestar and I've been writing since 2008. From then until now, I hold more than 250 characters (although, not all of them have been written into a story).

I love to write, play video games, watch Let's Players, listen to music from old, animated cartoons, and my favorite movie of all time is The Brave Little Toaster. I get inspiration for my stories in just about every way possible (dreams, ideas, leftover toothpaste in the sink, etc.)

But, let's move onto some of my stories!

FictionPress is here

Well, it's official. I'm excited. We have our first author joining us from FictionPress.com. As you all should know, FictionPress is FanFiction's sister site for original works of Fiction. As in not based on other content from video games, movies, already published books, TV, et cetera.
For more details, and how to tell the two target sites apart on our story board, continue reading the post.

Alcohol Awareness

I recently learned that October is Alcohol Awareness month, a time to reflect on the dangers of over use and over-consumption of alcohol. In honor of this month, and the millions killed each year, I present to you, the music video for my favorite band's song, Untitled (How Could This Happen to Me?). Please take the time to view the music video in it's entirety. I am aware of the fact that this player does not work on the site, but it does provide a link to the video on YouTube, do not let this deter you from the song's important message. The song in and of itself was written in honor of the lead singer's girlfriend, killed in an accident by a drunk driver, or so I understand. At the end of the video is a fact that I will re-type here for emphasis, because if this hits home for even one person, than this has been worth it.

Traffic accidents are the number one killer of teens. One-Third of these accidents are alcohol-related.

 Without further ado: Simple Plan.

Before I sign off, I want to explain something so we don't get a flurry of comments about it. In the video, when the family goes flying off in co-ordination with the crash, it is supposed to be representative of the fact that more than just the people in the car are affected by the crash. This should be obvious to most, but some people won't get this off the bat, hence this explanation. Good night everyone, and remember, don't drink and drive.

Small Update...

Well, mostly out of boredom (and determination), I was able to finish the second chapter of Baby Legendaries and get it posted, a couple of days after posting the full eighth chapter of A Being of Insect and Steel. Currently hoping to continue this streak with regular updates now.

Hello!

Hey, everybody! It's the Element Commander! Thank you for welcoming me to this blog!

...

Yeah...I'll be posting some stuff eventually. I just hope this post works! So I guess I'll see you next time!

The origin of the test gauntlet.

You know I knew trying to be a teacher would be hard but, I think I've discovered why teachers give so many tests. It's because when they where in college their teachers gave them tests twice a week and they crave revenge! How do they get their revenge? Taking it out on their students and thus the vicious cycle continues. I'm hopping after this week it calms down some so I can do something other than study for tests you know? On the plus side I'm doing well in classes! Let's see how long that lasts...

Welcome back me! It's been awhile huh? Well, stuff happens. So a quick overview and a page break are in order. Here's the stuff I'll be talking about, in no particular order:

1. Pure Chaos Progress
2. Thank Goodness for "camp-o"
3. Roommate?
4. New author

The Meaning of Words.

You know those times you just wish someone else could see the way you do?  That you had the words to make them better understand how you view the world and they can show you their view? Just so you both could understand each other a little better? I'm not talking about  simple communication, not really. Sometimes you don't have the words to express just what you see or how you feel, and it's frustrating because what you see can be so amazing  in your eyes that you wish just for a moment, someone else could experience it exactly as you have. Yea when you don't have the words the world is a narrow place, and even if you do, if others do not have the same words it is as if you didn't possess  words at all. It's funny how words shape so much of our lives. Guess that's why I became a writer. I want to have the words to describe everything I'm experiencing to you, and share with you everything as I see it through writing, and have it understood no matter who you are. That is what words are to me.

Ugh...

God, writers block is hitting hard yet again. Trying to overcome it by writing, but it's persistent, always blocking a plots path when its getting good. ABoIaS (A Being of Insect and Steel) is a victim of such. at least halfway through the full chapter 8, only to be blocked.

Right now, I'm trying to find other ways around said writers block, but so far nothing. I do tiny bits on my other stories that are on hold, which works to an extent.

School promotes organized procrastination.

It really does. I'm still working out my schedule but I have so little time that if I don't have to do something right now I won't. All in the name of making way for things I do. I call it organized procrastination. School is demanding, very demanding I've already had two tests in the last three days! Oh well, you know, I just realized I have an assignment due to tomorrow I should be working on....I'll do it later. Wannabe Teacher procrastination for the win! I'm still settling into my schedule at school since it has me up at ungodly hours like i said but, I'm getting there, once I get it panned out I'll start working on my stories some more. I've been working on the current ones and a few new ones in my free time, nothing I'm comfortable posting just yet mind you because my writing style has changed again. But,I'll deal with that hurdle later too, after I finish my assignment. Night ya'll.

Well, here we are again! Only this time, I have something to actually report. I just finished writing chapter 3 of Pure Chaos! Aleron is going to look over it, hopefully soon, and then I will post it to FanFiction. Hopefully I'll find some time to start chapter 4 today, if not, well, I'll get to it when I can. 

On a side note, if you are in fact reading this post, and plan on coming back in the future to read more posts, me and the other writers would really appreciate it if you pushed the "Join Site" button over there in the right sidebar. It lets us know that people are actually care about us and haven't just stumbled across this site accidentally. And feel free to comment on our posts, most of us are very chatty, and like a good online conversation. And that requires you to participate too, since everyone stares at someone who talks to themselves, right? Well, sometimes anyway.

I haven't forgotten you. See? XD. Anyways just mostly wanted to post because I haven't done so in awhile. I really haven't made any progress on my stories, so there. I blame college. My first semester, and 3 weeks in, I'm already working on a term paper... It's kind of hard to remember sometimes though, classes are only one semester long, not two, in college. I'm so used to each class taking up an entire year...

In other news all my Nerf stuff got here. It's pretty neat, though I can think of some ways it could be better. If I could execute what I have in my head, I'd be more than ready for Humans vs Zombies. I first have to install the Orange Mod Works kit (Stages 1 and 2 for Recon CS6). I think I can do it on my own , but I don't have a screwdriver to open up the gun. I'm looking to borrow one, but I don't really know who would have one. Okay then. See you all around!

"Welcome to college. There's plenty to do here, other then school stuff." They said. Yeah, not. I am SOO bored right now. The Rec Room doesn't open until 3PM even on weekends for some reason. Whatever, that's not really what I want to write about today. I got a decent spread of stuff to talk about today so, that should keep us both entertained for about... 20 minutes for me and maybe the 5 to 10 minutes it takes you to read this whole post...

Hello, guess what I just did? I finished Legend of Lucario! Like it will say in the chapter, I am both happy and sad to have finished the story. It's great and all that I have a finished multi-chapter story. I just feel like there should be more. But I have at least one more story to work on, and maybe that Legendz story

Well, kinda boring over the past month since my last post. Writers block hitting me hard, sis trying to 'Mother Hen' me time and time again, etc. Wish I could be able to just snap my fingers and writers block would be gone....Heh, if only it was that easy.

Was able to go to my uncles over the weekend. Used to go over there plenty of times before I started writing fanfics.

Anyway, Ask the Characters is currently on it's eighth chapter, with the ninth in the works. A Being of Insect and Steel has hit the writers block wall again, thinking on how to proceed for one part for the full eighth chapter.

I'll post again when something worth noting turns up.

See ya next time.

College Life: Day 9

I still can't believe how natural this all feels to me. It's like I've been at college my entire life or something. I mean, I could probably get to my dorm from the dining hall blindfolded already. I can already manage my schedule, making sure I get my butt out of bed in time for classes and other activities. Wow... I really don't have a whole lot more than that to say. If feels like each day is passing rather slowly, but at the same time, it's already day 9... then again, I've got a LONG way to go still. I don't know. Maybe it's just my brain acting strange again. Today I have my first actual meeting with the McDaniel Free Press, for which I am now in charge of posting certain articles and also producing a video each week. I hope that they give me equipment to use, but I've got my own just in case. I should probably get back to work on both my stories. I say both of them cause I got a couple reviews for Legend of Lucario recently that are asking me to please continue, so I need to get my rear in gear. Hey, that rhymed. Cool. I haven't written anything for either that or Pure Chaos since my last post. Mostly cause my writing program crashed and I've been too lazy to re-open it. XD

And now, for a completely random and unrelated joke:

"I have CDO. It's like OCD but the letters are in order like they should be."

College Life: Day 4

Ok, maybe technically day 5, but I don't care. I just got back from the opening "Party" for the Rec Lounge here at McDaniel College. It was fun. I played Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, Dance Central(Kinect game), and Kinect Adventures. Really I only picked up Adventures cause Dance Central decided to stop working. The party was fun. I ended up playing through all 6 parts of Rush's song "2112" on GH. Yeah, that took almost a half an hour all on it's own. Did I mention I was on Expert? Then I wiped myself out playing Kinect games. That was fun and stuff... yeah... I really just said that didn't I? Oh well. It's 1:06 AM so...

I also got set up with the McDaniel Free Press group today. I am to be in charge of posting the Arts articles and also I am supposed to try and produce one video each week for the group... Oh man that's gonna be a lot of work if I want to have good quality video. I just hope that they give me good topics and point me in the direction of what they want me to say about the topic. I'm not good at inventing the content. I just move it to the video format. If you know what I mean....

Hmmm... what else happened today... not much. Oh well. I'm gonna get some sleep now. I have to be up at 8 in the morning so I can get some breakfast before my 9:10 class. See you around.

College = Headache

I'm a sophomore so college has kinda lost it's novelty and after all the things I had to go through with Purdue college is kinda lack luster for me. I've switched collages though and in three days I've already had a much better experience! I'm taking night classes so i'm going to be up late a lot both doing homework and whatnot before I crash. It's day four of college here at IUS and since I have a four day week I'm done for the week even if I still have tons of homework to do and another quiz and another forum post...did I mention I have errands to run later today? Ah! I have no free time it's an illusion! right now I'm wavering between my majors. I'm almost done with my associates in electrical enegineering but I don't want to do that anymore I hate it...HATE it. So now I'm considering whether I want to teach math or science in middle school. I may eventually end up finishing my degree in ECET but not for a while yet it looks like. A short update on my stories i'm still not done editing them i kinda had to push them back to fend off some real world troubles i have't forgotten about them but it will be a while yet before I update them. Though my writing class might help with my horrible habit of spelling words phonically. Cause that's how I spell by how the word sounds. Night all.

College Life: Day 3

Well, so far, so good. I guess. I was late to math class on Monday after discovering that I had written down Guitar Class wrong. Did I mention that last time? I don't know. Well, today I had a decent amount of fun. After classes were over for the day, I went downstairs to get dinner, to my surprise, dinner was being served outside tonight. And in front of a live DJ. I ended up hanging with him for awhile. Although I found out that he doesn't like to scratch at all, so I was a bit disappointed. Although he did use the same software as me. Albeit the paid version, but still. That was kinda cool in and of itself. I'd keep going but I have little else to say to you all today. I haven't made any progress on my stories since last post so... yeah. I'm going to bed now. Maybe. Oh leave me alone. My brain hurts.

College Life: Day 1

First off, NO I will not be posting every single day. At least I don't think so, so don't panic about a flood of posts from me about nothing but college. Not that I won't touch on other stuff when I do post.

Well, today is the first day of classes for me. I already went to my first class, "The Art of Programming". I can tell already that it's going to be 'fun' for awhile. See, they're covering the absolute basics of programming at the start of the course. All the way back to what an algorithm is. Yeah, if you know anything about coding, then you know that this is gonna boring as crap for me, since I already passed 2 computer programming classes in High School (C++ and Java). Plus, I've already managed to blunder my schedule. Turns out that I had my Guitar class written down on the wrong day of the week. Monday instead of Tuesday. Go figure. I sucks especially cause I had to put up with walking the entire way next to someone who was smoking what I believed to be weed. Mostly because it looked to be hand-rolled, but I don't know what was in it, and I don't  know the kid, so I'm not raising any flags just yet. Right now I'm sitting at lunch, writing this and afterwards I have Math.

College Begins

Ohh man. Oh man. Ohmanohmanman... This is ACTUALLY HAPPENING! I am IN COLLEGE. Ok, ok. Let me calm down for a minute here. I am here at McDaniel College, getting ready to start my freshman year. I plan to major in Computer Science, and am already having a blast. Today is only my third day here and I am already making new friends, learning things, and just having fun. Read more?

Home again... for now.

Ok, well I'm glad to be home. Even if it is just for 2 days before I pack up and move into College for the first time... We just got home from Indiana today. I drove first, and swapped out with mom when I almost fell asleep at the wheel. That would have been bad. Glad I caught myself. I feel obligated now to put in the following quote from my High Schools message board so that it displays on the main page.

The Graduating Class of 2009 remembers:

Drowsy Driving Kills

Don't drive sleepy.

I have some other stuff to talk about too, and will explain that more...

I DID IT! Whoho! My first story update for you in about a month. Aleron's Sword is (hopefully) proofreading it right now. I'll put it up on the FanFiction in about 5 to 10 minutes. Oh, it would help if I mention what story I'm talking about huh? It's Pure Chaos that I did chapter 2 of. So I'm just kinda writing this to keep you all up to date and to kill some time while I wait for Aleron to proofread...

In other news...

I think... I want to kill my parents right now. I'm dead tired but won't be sleeping any time soon. Why? We just got back, and yes, I do mean JUST got back from a football game. Only reason I agreed to go was because my Uncle coaches one of the teams. No, nothing big, just a High School team. We lost. Badly. The refs didn't help though. Point is that we spent about 2 hours in the car for almost nothing worthwhile and don't get back to the house until about 12:10 AM this morning. The only good news is that I managed to make a decent amount of progress on Pure Chaos. In fact, if I can get myself to work on it, chapter two should finally be done tomorrow. I guess technically today, seeing as it's past midnight. By the way, pray to god you never have to interact with me between the hours of 1 AM and 3 AM. If I am awake during that period, just about all traces of sanity leave me. Yeah... Hilarious for me, not so much for you.

Stir Crazy.

Hello people I've just discovered how much I HATE ignorance. An entire week of dealing with willful stupidity makes you just a little bit crazy. In fact I'm so frustrated right now I forgot how to work my email seriously it took me five minutes to register that I was staring at the information I needed. *head desk* ....I just tore the t off my keyboard. *head desk* I've gotten maybe an hour of sleep in 48 hours on top of all that. But you know what? I'm happy cause I'm done with the situation until Monday and tomorrows my Birthday. YEAH god I'm tired. *face desk*

Hello again everyone. I just discovered something. My brother is annoying. Oh wait, I already knew that. Anyways I'm here in Indiana, visiting my Grandma. Yup. We're staying at her house for the rest of the week. Then I get to come home for two days and then it's off to college. Go figure. I think I sometimes make more progress on stories when I have other stuff going on. I guess it's kind of a lazy day type thing, you know?

Not much to say really.

Sorry for not posting sooner but, I've been really busy lately. I'm transferring schools right now and that involves a lot of paper work and even more phone calls. Tell you the truth I hate using the phone it's like a phobia or something. I also hate talking about myself. On a side note I'm am, however, working on some of my stories and trying to figure out just what I'm going to actually do with them. I'm also working on an update schedule for when I start going to class again. Just a few things I thought you should know.

Well, I'm apparently a bit of a lazy baka. Sorry about not being around a whole lot, and for not posting anything in awhile. Some of the stuff in Pure Chaos is giving me trouble. I can't seem to make a certain conversation flow while getting across a certain point. I want to get this right before I publish it.

As for this website, I am going to continue posting here. Like I said before though, expect a major slowdown in updates for my FanFics. I also want to try out doing something with the Story Board. Head over there to check it out.

But enough business. Let's talk about me some, huh?

Anyone have those dreams that you want to get down on paper or something? Yeah, that's been happening to me quite a bit lately. I don't know why, but yet it's kinda helping in lifting writers block as well.

Newbie and Probation

I got some administrative announcements to make. First off, Aleron's Sword is currently on Probation. Any more violations of the contract before the end of the month, and I will be forced to remove him from the group at least temporarily. On the other hand, we are getting a new member soon. Once Amaryuu-no-Reichi from Fanfiction.net submits the final bits of information I need from her, she will be an official member of the Wannabe Writers.

Now this OBVIOUSLY affects me...

Just finished Ask the Characters: Chapter 7 last night and had a pretty cool dream in the same night. I have to say, writers block is ebbing away bit by bit and that's a really good thing for me. Hopefully that means I can be able to update more often for my main stories. And Nano? We all can't hope to meet the deadline for everything.

Well, it's official. I've failed. What did I fail at? My goal. Yeah, I wanted to get the next chapter of Pure Chaos done today. Well, I guess I still have some time. But then again, having a doctor shove their fingers up your butt is not pleasant, and put me off for the day. Yeah, I have no idea why, but Mom took me to see a Gastroenterologist today. Intestine doctors basically. Now they want to put a balloon up my butt and inflate it for some reason... What fun that will be... *sigh* See, my life sucks too sometimes.

On an unrelated note...

Hey everyone!

Aleron's Sword here, here to provide plenty of stories for your entertainment. The reason why I have so many......Eheheh, lets just say that boredom and a wide imagination are dangerous things to have when home alone^_^;

Anyway, I hope that many more can join our humble little group and improve their writing skills along the way.

Remember that pain in my shoulder I was talking about? Yeah, turns out I had a pinched nerve or something in my shoulder. It still hurts a bit today, but it's definitely calming down. That's part of the reason I haven't been posting much, it hurt so bad that I couldn't even get out of bed in the morning without help. Yeah... Not even kidding.

Anyways, on to other stuff... (Click "Read More>>")

The Change

It's done. This page is no longer my personal blog. This is now a blog that any writer on FanFiction.net or it's sister site FictionPress.net may join. This doesn't mean that the blog will be all business about stories now, though. Writers who join are, in fact, encouraged to post about their personal lives, so long as they don't give away too much personal information. I hope that everyone will enjoy the new blog, and many writers will join up with me in the near future.

Quick Update

This is just a quick little notice that I have just posted the first chapter of Pure Chaos. The link is available on the Fan Fiction Stuff page and I am now going to go to bed. Thank you and good night.

Ow... that's all I can really think about right now. My shoulder is killing me. Why? I'm not entirely sure, but I think it has something to do with the fact that I have been playing my brand new electric guitar almost non-stop for three days. Yeah, you heard me. New electric guitar. It's kind of awesome. And it has a neck strap so I'm not stuck in one place while playing. Cool huh? But now my shoulder is sore. The weird part is it's not the shoulder I put the neck strap on... Go figure. But man. Stuff happened today. Well, some stuff. Some of the stuff I got to tell you guys about happened a few days ago, but you know what? My shoulder hurts to much to care.

Ok, Let's get my fanfic update out of the way here first. I have to say that I'm ashamed of myself right now. I can't seem to get myself to start this last chapter of Legend of Lucario. I do want to say, however, that I am really upset that people in my C2 community about TF stories, all you seem to do is Pokémon. ENOUGH! It's Pokémon down the entire page, do we have anything else at all we can add? Half the Pokémon stuff is crap, and almost all of the Digimon stuff is. We have one story from the realm of Hamtaro, although I refuse to read it, I saw the show and wanted to puke. We have maybe 2 stories about Transformers, and 2 or 3 from the Sonic universe. I want something DIFFERENT! Sonic, Transformers, Digimon, they all have potential too, so can we please stop with the massive amounts of Pokémon stuff? In fact, in protest to all of this, I'm putting my story, Pony-taur on hold until after I write a few other stories whose ideas came to me recently, and guess what? You won't see a single Pokémon in any of them. At least I certainly hope not.

Now on to life outside of FanFiction.net...

Well, I owe you all another update. Here's the deal on FF stuff, so you don't have to read the whole post. The rest of you, can click the "Read More >>" button, and see what's up outside of story time. XD. Anyways, I can honestly say I have made, absolutely no progress. Yeah, sue me. I really just can't get myself to start typing the next chapter. Someone should do something about that. I really though, wanted to thank you guys for all your support so far. It's always nice to see you guys responding so positively to something I made up. While reading random TF fics. On a day I forgot to take my ADHD medicine. Yeah. Exactly. I had no idea that it would turn into this big of a deal with so many daily hits and views.

A Big Day?

Well, got a lot of stuff planned for today... Ok, I don't, but my parent's stuff, my stuff that I want to do and need to do all add up to a lot... Let's see, we got, my littlest brother's swim lessons, I have to take a pre-test, and we are going to go see the new Harry Potter movie. Yeah... it doesn't sound like much, but trust me. It's going to be a pain. Plus I wanted to get my lazy a** in gear and get started on the last(?) chapter of Legend of Lucario.

Another Day, Another Story. Wait, What?

Well, I finally got around to writing and publishing Speed Demon. I've had the idea floating around in my head since the 4th of July, but was to lazy to write it. Now that's one less plot bunny mucking up my brain.

Now on to other stuff...

I'M BACK!!!!

Wow. Boy did I fail for awhile here... Ok, so let me catch you up on all the stuff that's been going down in my life. Just a quick over-view... I hope...

Wow...

Dang, it's been forever since I've been here...

Ok then, Christmas gifts... at least the big ones. I got a Kindle, a copy of Halo: Reach, and lots of popcorn... lol. I also got a new lava lamp, I will NEVER get over how nice it is to just stare at it... O.o

Today is the last day of the second semester of my senior year in high school, and I don't have any tests tomorrow, so you can bet I will be on xBox Live all day almost tomorrow playing Halo: Reach. I will have the Birthday Party armor effect if it kills me. For those of you who don't know what that is, every time you die, you here a "Hooray!!!" sound and confetti explodes from your corpse. The description says "Your death is softened by a joyful noise... And confetti." It costs 200,000 credits, which is a lot considering you only earn an average of 500 credits a game. But I'm getting closer to my goal.

I have to go now before I get in trouble for being on the computer in school when I'm not supposed to.
