Ok, now I just bit the bullet and moved almost every post to its new home: Wanted.

It's hosted on my own site, so I can do my thing without worrying about anything, and I can change the look whenever I want.

The organization is a tad different.

There's no real friend list.  You can ask me for access to the private section, but there are very few ( Read more... )

It seems like in all my character concepts and story ideas, I don't have a clear protagonist, the person readers are supposed to focus on.  I don't care if they sympathize or not, but there needs to be some form of focus in a story, a particular goal or mindset to act as a foundation for the reader to hang the information on ( Read more... )

For the most part, I don't have too many projects I care much about in my writing.  Once I get the world-building and character concepts down, basic outlines for a plot, I move on.  Ok, maybe there's one project I would love to do, if various things came together for it to be possible ( Read more... )

I've been told I'm scared of success.  I'm pretty sure I've been told I'm scared of failure.  Neither is exactly accurate.

My worst fear as far as doing anything new, or going for a job I really want, or anything like that, is to succeed at first, then be found out for an incompetent fraud, and therefore humiliated.  Being something less than what ( Read more... )

I do like DeviantArt.  I like its system for adding stuff to your favorites.

Right now, I've done some categorization of my favorites, which you can see here.  Oddly enough, it's broken up into the categories I've been using for my Addiction posts:  Tribal, Dragons, Photography, Other Art.  This of course means my final Addiction post will be on a ( Read more... )

Yeah, I'm bored. I realized my iPod is missing stuff. AND I bought some computer speakers that have a dock for an mp3 player.

So, I got nothin' to say.

You are generally calm, although some situations can make you feel anxious or tense, however you are sensitive about what others think of you. Your concern about rejection and ridicule cause you to feel shy and uncomfortable around others. You are ( Read more... )

I have a lot of stuff.  Trying to pack it up makes me wish I bought less... stuff.  So I have to go through and toss everything I'm not using, and figure out how to pack the rest so it's not a complete nightmare to move ( Read more... )

Yet another topic inspired by an IM chat with a friend.

Idealism
There's a lot of "happily ever after" in fantasy.  The happy ending where everyone lives in peace and prosperity, where the Chosen is now King/Queen and flowers bloom in his/her wake.  Even if the ending is not happy-happy-rose-colored-glasses, the missing piece of the puzzle is in ( Read more... )

What good is having a friend who'll answer pretty much any question you ask, if you have no idea how to ask?

I love finding out all kinds of info about people, like their tastes in music and stuff, their reasons/motivations, whatever's on their mind.  Normally, you have to sift through all the interactions you have with a person to learn what you ( Read more... )
