If this is the first entry that you see, and one of very few, then that means you are not on my Friends List (or not logged in). Most people have shiny graphics declaring their journals being all exclusive like, but well, I'm not particularly talented with the graphics side of things. I write, and thus, you're getting my words

Hi. Found your name while Nikki&Nora story-hopping. I'd love to see what you've been writing, but am also interested in the process. So, Unabridged, if you don't mind? Thanks!

[tristianmakhai]

Hiya, and welcome to the mad-house. Or at least the mad-journal.

You mentioned the 'process' and being interested in what goes into it, but did ask for the Unabridged filter. That is Unabridged, as in personal crap that I'm bitching about at any given moment. While it eventually will trickle down into what I write, isn't actually directly about the writing.

I'll put you on Writer!flail, unless you don't mind the more non-writing entries, to which it'd be more Life/Tales from the Front.

Just thought I'd clarify as I wasn't sure if I'd given you the wrong impression on what was what, and that unabridged isn't about an unfiltered view into the writing process (it is, in a way) but more the uncensored 24 year old mind in all it's uncensored glory as I stumble through life, work, friends, and all things insanely related thereof).

[laughs] It's polite because the entries with swearing are locked under a couple filters. Which is why I created the filtering system to deal with the fact that there are some RL inspired entries and some may be here strictly for the fiction. And then there's the other one that is about crap not everyone is interested in and so on and so forth.

But you confused me. At one point you seem down with the femslash and then the next you say 'would be less tempted to read.' I should warn you, as in my post, predominately, that's what's featured. It's not that I refuse to write anything else, just that habitually, that seems to be the main trend. I'll add you, but let me know if you would rather not, in light of the fact that I do go femslash more often than not.

Oh good! I was a little...not quite nervous, but unsure of how to proceed because while I'm not opposed to het (Farscape's John and Aeryn are definitely my prefered match), it sort of is what I've been writing for almost ten years now. :p [laughs]

Good to know it's wanted. This is a good thing. Otherwise, readings on my journal would become slim pickings for interest. :p I'll go ahead and put you on my second tier filter which includes the RL ramblings, but if you prefer the fourth level which is writing ramblings and fic, but not more personal/rl/not strictly writing related, that's cool. I went with this system purely for reader comfort. I know some people don't actually care about the crap I ramble on about. :P

And no worries about not being a native English speaker. I've known several, and every time, I learn more about my own language. [grins]

Hi there. Looking for Nikki & Nora fics, I run into your journal. I had the chance of reading "Never" and "Untitled" in another forum, and would love to read any other stories you might've written. There's so little to read compared to other fandoms, I feel like crying :(

As for filters, "Just the Fic" or "Writer!flail" will do. Thanks!

[tristianmakhai]

Hey, sorry about the late response on this. Put you onto Writer!flail filter, which will have writing related posts, but not strictly fiction. Basically this means, you will be privy to some scenes or information before formal posting occurs. Which considering just how rare that is currently, it means you actually get to see something. Or just read about me bitching and wrestling with a fic. ^^

I have a few other pieces up here, though nothing completely finished, more snippets of fic, as far as I know. If you aren't on it, check out http://community.livejournal.com/ladycops/ for a little more fic. I know what you mean though about there being so little.

[southie2]

Thanks for adding me. Yes, I visited the Ladycops LJ community, and read a lot of them. Hope to see you posting another N&N fic soon! :)

Ok I give up waiting to catch up with Ayrki. You decide on your comfort level. Apart from Josh history totally scandalising me, I'm fairly unflapable. L. Y. M.
