I read Soz yesterday and I felt like I had been sniffing glue and my brain was nothing but worm-eaten tunnels. Later, I was trying to write my fic and drawing on my stomach and on whim, wrote "Soz" and "Pogrebin" on it. (sorry dearHer writing is so good it hurts. Even though I'm wondering if "Price is Right" is British. When it's this good, who

CRAP. Now I have a huge plot bunny running rabidly in my head! >:O >:O >:O!!!!!!1!

write it so I won't! ;)

[eva_c]

But you've already written it... *laughs* Though I don't really deserve the credit.

Her writing is so good it hurts.
I want to write Pyro/Iceman like she does. Her writing makes me feel it is my duty to donate my computer to charity and become a hermit in the woods living on berries and truffles. Like I shall never utter 'X2' again. I hear you on the author envy.

I hear you on thinking this is as good it gets. Gordon Korman published a book when he was in seventh grade, and undoubtedly I can, too. Right? Right? I was high on my own splendour. It was being in the advanced English classes and being one of the few who understood the significance of migrating coconuts and the number 42. We seem to have learned since then, and still it seems like the subliminal messages are telling us to head for the woods.
'Wisest is she who knows that she does not know.' (I've just quoted Socrates in an LJ comment; you may slap me for being pretentious.) That -est looks dodgy, though, doesn't it?

I enjoy your fics. Just saying.

Wibble. Sounds like the story of my life. :) I, too, was well-informed on the significance of 42 although my young author that I knew of was Amelia Atwater-Rhodes and I thought her writing was shit. So there I was, planning on writing a novel over the summer vacation to get money for college. Me, reading "how to get published" books and "how to write a novel in a year" books. :P

I've never had Socrates quoted in an LJ comment before. *slaps lightly* :D

And I still haven't seen X2. Or the Matrix Reloaded.

*laughs* I was on your stomach! No need to apologise, especially when I'm there with such illustrious company :)About Soz-- she really is wonderful isn't she? Plus she loves the Counting Crows and Wuthering Heights. <3333

And having Author envy and being derivative is all good, I sure as hell am!

I used to write such crap a few years ago. Honestly. Utter, unmentionable, disgusting crap that I currently laugh at 12-year old plebes for. *shudder* And besides, your writing is quite lovely, so you have nothing to be angsty about.

*downloading Counting Crows songs*

Yes, but kind of crap? There are different levels of crappiness... :)

you have nothing to be angsty about.

Well, I know I'm not the worst out there. :D Reading plebefic has convinced me of that. But there's just that desire to be really great. And what is "great" anyway? *holds head*

Re:

[pogrebin]

Yay! You should get songs from their old albums, rather than the new one, which I'm not too keen on. Mrs Potter's Lullaby, Angels of the Silences, Anna Begins, Another Horsedreamer's Blues, Catapult...all lovely songs.

Oh, and it was crap of the first order. Honestly. If there was a prize for crap, I'd have won it. If you ask me veeery nicely and swear never to reveal it to anyone, I might just send you something from Way Back When. But you must promise not to hate me forever and respect me in the morning.

[eva_c]

I rather liked Mr. Jones... will download the ones you recced.

*asks veeerry nicely* I've asked the same question to other authors but I've never had an actual offer. Please? :D It honestly can't be any worse than "Vittoria and the Shooting Stars".

[bookofjude]

Author envy is such a boring thing, love. I hate getting it. Because it makes me never want to write again. But not any more. Now good authors just give me huge plot bunnies and I was trying not to write prostitute!Draco-AU after reading the first part of Bad Faith.

Colour me fanboy. <3 *goes to read more of said fic*

Re:

[eva_c]

*looks at lj name* *convulses* *giggles* I really do <3 you.

Oh, and please do write prostitute!Draco-AU. Except make him good-looking, pale-skinned, and a bit less dirty. ;)
