LJ Layouts

[jaesha]

Man, I hate trying to clean up my LJ.  I feel like things are all over the freakin' place.  Makes me want to delete the whole thing and start over.  This is why I had started a community for my fic, but then I realized that there were things I couldn't do on a community that I could on a regular journal

I'm not a huge James fan anymore, I must admit, but I still like him as an actor. I am one of the people who thought he looked ridiculous in Wedding Band, but the episode was hilarious and I just love the show in general. I've been watching since the beginning.

It would be really upsetting to see you quit Personal Attention as it was one of my favorites, but I get it. I have little to no inspiration these days.

I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed the show. I'd never watched it before- mostly because I'm not a huge Brian Austin Green fan- mostly because I'm not a Megan Fox fan. But it was good. And I admit that I have an odd fascination with Harold Perrineau. It started with his role as Mercutio in Romeo + Juliet. I don't know why.

As for PA, well, I'm hoping it won't be my failure. I am going to try to finish it. I know where it's going, but not how it's going to get there. Plus it was soooo angsty; I started to hate Buffy and I couldn't control what she was doing. I wanted to slap her. I didn't want to write her. I wanted to have her get run over by the tour bus, or for Oliver to pitch her off a cliff. It was an exhausting experience to write.

Yes, thank you, I knew that guy looked familiar. I didn't even think about Romeo and Juliet...lol! I love Brian Austin Green, he's the reason I decided to check out the show in the first place. I can't hold the fact he's with Megan Fox against him, even though I've never liked her. She was actually in the second episode of Wedding Band, which I could have done without.

Aww, really? I don't get all the hate for Buffy in that fiction. I've read ones where she's way worse, I can kind of understand her in that one to an extent. But I could just be saying this because I only remember bits and pieces, it might be time for another reread, especially if you plan to remove it from the archives at some point.

Ohhh -- love that you're writing again! This is great news all around. Maybe my muse will wake up.

I just wish I could find it. . .

So glad about Trouble. Not so happy about Personal Attention, though, because I like that one too.

Truancy. . . oh, shows lots of promise. . .

Strippers? Strippers?

[jaesha]

Yep, strippers. I actually might need your help on the stripper fic because I started two different versions, one of which I thought at the time was stupid, but now that I have revisited it, they both show promise. Would love your honest opinion. What do you say?

[tangwstyl]

Silly girl. You don't even need to ask. I'm so in. Hit me with it. Please!

OMG JAESHA!!!!! *tackle* what a lovely name to pop up on my f-list! And I am thrilled that you have inspiration. I'm saddened about Personal Attention, but I have a WIP sitting out in the cold for 2 years now. I mean Jesus Christ it only needs 2 more chapters but I just can't muster the energy. All my creative knee-jerking has gone towards other avenues. I just miss the fandom community and I've neglected it for too long.

I hope you're doing well! <3

HEY DAMPERS!!!! Long time, no see.

Yeah, the muse usually returns to me after seeing James in the flesh. That man can inspire me off a ledge. And no matter how far removed from fandom I am, he yanks me right back in.

But, as you can see from my delayed response, I'm having the lull. I need another James fix, stat!

I don't want to drop PA, I really don't. I'm just afraid that it's going to end up with another 30 chapters because there is so much I want to cram in there. Or maybe, it's because the worst of the angst is over and I'm finding myself a bit cooled by their relationship. Keep me talking like this, sister, and you won't have to worry about me not finishing. I'm getting the idea bubbles.

I do miss your writing, though. You have such an awesome style, cheeky as hell and sexy to boot. You came in like this whirlwind, sweeping us away into worlds of greasers and naughty priests. Something I haven't seen since your departure from Spuffy. Man, you are the shiznit, my friend.

I'm one of those who liked how James looked in the Wedding Band. I thought he was fabulous and looked great. That hair looked nice on him and fit the character.

[jaesha]

So glad I wasn't the only one. :-) Hotness that he is. He can't bloody help.

[cordykitten]

I'm sad for every WIP that won't get continued (but you can't help it if the muse doesn't behave). And oh boy, how many are that - sadly. Lots of people stopped writing (or just vanished).

So I'm even more glad for updates, even if I'm late reading.

Having seen the wedding band because it doesn't air here.
