First post! and SWTOR snippet filter

Mar 30, 2012 20:15

Trying out this crosspost-to-LJ thing for nefarious purposes, and also I have a question for the three people who follow me who might possibly be interested: would anyone like to be on a filter for SWTOR snippets?

Because while my policy is to post finished fics in public, the way my creativity's been for the last few years actual FINISHED fics are few and far between, and at risk of sounding like a person with incredibly needy and fragile writer's ego, my chances of actually producing something are way higher if I can show people what I'm working on and possibly even get reassurance that it doesn't suck.

Do you actually read brynnam? Have you seen my rambling disclaimers which tell all and sundry how self conscious and needy I am, particularly about my writing?

tl;dr - get out of my boat, you're hogging my space (I understand, and am right in the same place).

"I am a colossal pervert"Just because I don't write it (or post it publically), doesn't mean I don't think it. I have to rein in the dark stuff sometimes, because my brain just goes there and I am ( ... )

Dude I will never ever laugh at this, since I am the same way about my own writing and art.

And I too am a colossal pervert so no judgment here!
