Checking in

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone, just a quick check in from me this week.

Thought I would share a couple of links. First to lots of articles about writing and then to the grammar girl site.

And as I don't have much to add this week, here have a pic of the lads *g*.



Other than that this is your chance to let us know how you are doing with your story/artwork/vid, ask any questions, and just generally chat away.

Hey there! I'd say panic is definitely setting in. *g* But just as I despair, there are the lads in all their togetherness glory! Thank you! I wish I could write!

[inlovewithboth.livejournal.com]

*whispers* Hasn't it gone quiet?

[scherwood]

I've sent my fic to my beta reader. :)
I need a second opinion so..

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Well, let's say I am feeling cautiously optimistic. I had time to write half a scene yesterday and I sent over 100 pages off to three betas for checking, so most of the doc's been edited. Now--to write the rest of the story.

Love all the inspirational pictures.

Procrastination is, as ever, my middle name! But I have done a bit of fiddling, so we're off the ground :D

And yummy piccie Vic!

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

What a fab picture!

My story is technically finished but with my horrid writing style, I'm editing like mad. Let's hope I get it ready for posting because right now, nobody would want to read this mess.

Otherwise, I'm good. :)

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Nope no panicking allowed *sends soothing vibes*. And you will write I know it *\o/* *\o/*

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

*whispers back* Yes it has a bit.

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Great news about getting the fic to your beta.

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Optimistic is good and it sounds like you have reason to be. Glad you liked the pic.

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Thanks luv, the lads are yummy.

Procrastination is a great middle name, it must get mispelled a lot though.

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Thanks ♥ they lads do look good together.

*\o/* for being finished and in the editing stage.

And I must disagree, we all want to read it.

Right now it seems that Procrastination is all I´ll ever be called. And naughty reader!

I´m still searching for software to vid. And am reading.
I did get one pic done, started to read another story, but then I realised that I totally and entirely missed the theme of the BBstory with the pic and instead went with stuff I wrote in mails to my writer.
Then I read some more. Did some housecleaning.
Started to read HP for f... sake!

Now I´m drooling over the lads in this post, *sorry, wiping it away* thinking about the next story I´d like to read and didn´t even start to use the stuff I downloaded earlier.

*PANIC*

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Ah procrastination, I know it so well. And I can report that the lads like being drooled over *g*.

And I can say don't panic you have plenty of time *sends soothing vibes*

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

And I can report that the lads like being drooled over *g*.
That eases my conscieceness tremendously!

About the time thingy though....There´s no time for vidding and stuff on next two weekends, then I´ll be off to Corse for three bloody wonderful weeks! which makes my time schedule kinda worthless. When we´re back school starts and most weekends are filled with birthday invitations either receiving or sending, and then there´s already the deadline.

I am somebody who works best under pressure, but then the pressures already applied....ah! *tussels hair, still panicks, sorry about stealing your time, too*

Thanks for the vibes, though!
They´re highly appreciated. Maybe you could find somebody to sent over for a neck massage?
Or for cleaning and packing? Nah, better somebody to stand in for me working! That would be great. *g*

It's been fits and starts; but in the last week I got some great advice, and I've got someone checking my characterization, and I even sent some info to my artist, so overall it's going okay.

I might write some non-BB stuff over the next couple of days for a break (and because it *really* wants to be written).

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

I've never gotten to say this, but - your icon there defines the word "icon" in LJ for me. I would friend you just on the strength of your icon. I would strew rose petals before your path and tote water across the Sahara for you just because of your icon. :D

This is the only icon I've ever really thought about asking for a copy (although I read your note, so I'm cool and will admire from afar).

But seriously. It really is an ingenious icon.

[scherwood]

Wow - I'm stunned and... just wow! Thanks! *blush*

and if you wanna friend me.. go ahead! I love new friends! *hugs*

Just for that I'll let you have the icon, as long as you say it's not up for grabs by anyone else but us, ok? :)

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

Wow - thank you for that! Duly friended (although I live a pretty boring life, interspersed with the occasional snark).

And it's a deal - I just have to buy a userpic pack because I have a... basic account.

I think I'll just go off and stare at the image for a while, now. :D

You have to save the reading for treats when you get one aspect done. ;) That's what I do when I need to write something... you can read that story you're dying to read AFTER you write a chapter. It's a great motivator. ;)

It's not time to panic, though. Panic comes when you're a week from the due date and still don't have it done. *g*

You can do it, Rain! *cheers*

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Oooh, lovely yummy collection of pics. *sits back, sipping pina colada, ogling the lads*

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

right now, nobody would want to read this mess.

I wouldn't be too sure about that if I were you!

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

What sort of bribes can we offer your muse?

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Holy crap, Dawn. I'm in awe. ONE HUNDRED pages and it's not done yet? *makes grabby hands* Want!

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Procrastination is a very contagious disease. *nods* I tell people I'd like to procrastinate... but I keep putting it off. ;)

A bit of fiddling to start sounds good (and also incredibly filthy *g*)

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you're making progress, and progress is good!

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Woo Hoo! In the home stretch then, yes? :D

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Maybe you could find somebody to send over for a neck massage?
I can do that, the lads are on their way.

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

*sits down next to you*

*ogles the lads as well*

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Sounds like great progress and I agree sometime syou need that break, it can help recharge.

[scherwood]

LoL - join the club. My life isn't that exciting so... ;D

Great! Enjoy the icon. *blush* :D

[scherwood]

Not exactly.. but kinda I guess. *g* :)

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks. I'm nothing if not wordy--let's see if the finished product is a solid story!

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

Hey, be nice to yourself. I want to.

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

You want to read this again? Good grief, woman, are you nuts? LOL!

Without you, I would have run off months ago. That's what I get for writing a case story instead of some smutty epic. *g*

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

You are very kind.

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

Trust me, you wouldn't want to wade through 153 pages of this muck. I shall continue to whip it into shape and pray it's ready for posting at deadline.

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

You have to save the reading for treats when you get one aspect done. ;)
I wish I´d have the self discipline to do that! I really do. (wish for it. Honest!!! (Just maybe not really hard enough?))

Panic comes when you're a week from the due date and still don't have it done. *g*
Oh. That´s alright then. I guess! *g*

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

Thanks for your support, it is muchly appreciated! *g*

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Yeah sure you two, go ahead, rub it in!! *bg*
