Dan is going to either become a Judge down the line or my agent. Apparently I will become a great fiction writer because if Stephanie Meyer can make a ton of $$ from fanfiction and Mary Sues then dammit, so can I ( Read more... )

Dammit...I'm working on my horrible purple prose mary sue book RIGHT NOW. I have 3000 words, which include: "taut stomach musculature", "light hazy grey eyes the color of the mist before the sun rises", and "she gasped as he sent through her nubile body neverending sparks of finite ecstasy"

...although I'm actually not joking about the purple prose thing. I want to see if I can get total crap published and made into a movie. My ultimate goal is to have some tween wannabe goth-punkster claim that my main character is her soulbonded astral plane lover.

Lol. Seriously if that woman can do it then so can we! Although part of it is just timing. There are a ton of great books that are often overlooked you know?

Your mention of illustrations interspersed through a book reminds me of a YA book I like: "Abarat" by Clive Barker. I think it's only in the hard cover, but he incorporates illustrations throughout, not only on full pages but also amidst the text. They are really cool and if you can find a copy, you should check it out.

Oooooh I'm definitely curious! I am definitely going to check this out. Thank you!

Aww, I miss Cap'n HurriKat. Her and VanClout Tidesquall need to be in a story together.

And I always said you needed to write more! Here, how's about this? After I form Lobster House Productions and make millions off my smash-hit series, I'll finance your stories. I'll give you 10%. Deal?

Haha yeah VanClout Tidesquall definitely needs to be in something so we can share our genius with the world.
And I think you left out a 0, it should be 100% XD

How cool! My friend Beth is working on her super awesome vampuscript, and Greg's friend Maureen has finished her fantasy novel, so you can do this, too! Good luck in this endeavor!

Nice! We'll have a whole league of writers armed with awesome books to fight off the evil trashy crap out there! XD
