tjs_whatnot: (writing--quit my shitty job)
I put off doing this meme for a few reasons, the first being that I thought it looked like a thing that would be hard to gather. But [personal profile] corvidology  assured me it wasn't, and I trust them. ❤️ The second was because I knew that a lot of it would be HP, and as I've discussed before, I have complicated thoughts of my output in that fandom. But, I am proud of a lot of the works I produced, and feel like most (if not all) of them have always been a Fuck You to Rowling, so… here goes.

Sort of interesting…ish )

Any key takeaways? Just that I need to write more, and tag better. ❤️❤️

Just in case I'm crazy enough to take this on.

I was made aware of this by someone at FSC, but the community itself ( [livejournal.com profile] 100fandoms )looks pretty dead--no posts since 2012--but that's okay, we can have our own fun.

I CAN SEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Sort of...

...ish.


I had my surgery yesterday and it was everything everyone said--the easiest thing I'd ever done. Especially after the Zanac and the pain med IV (two thing I'd never had before). I barely felt anything and couldn't believe when they said it was over. In and out in less than 4 hours. I actually can't wait to get the other one done. Unfortunately, I'll have to as I am out of town for most of August and back to work after that, and since one of the only things I can't do for weeks after the surgery is left anything over 30 pounds, I'll have to wait until the Christmas holiday when I don't have a baby to cuddle for that length of time.

Everyone reassured me about the ease of the procedure and how much better their vision was, but no one told me that it wasn't an immediate thing. So, while I can see better now than I have in a very long time, it's still not great. I'm told it will get better and better in the next couple of days, and I can see that it's already getting better today than it was yesterday, I'm just learning to be patient and not stress too much that it didn't work and it was all for nothing.

BUT! It's Wednesday! It's Summer! It's a Holiday Week(end), so, lets have some fun during this WIP Wednesday. Instead of sharing a snippet and us all reading and heaping kudos and GO YOUs at you, post the very last sentence of the very last thing you've been working on and let us have fun with it. Maybe a little Round Robin, or maybe it will inspire a whole new story in a whole other fandom for someone else.

How it will work: One sentence in a new comment. No context, no explanation. If you write for that sentence, whether it be just another sentence or a scene, complete story, leave it in a reply to THAT comment. Each sentence can have as many threads as it garners and you can take any added story and work it anyway YOU want, just make sure to leave your contribution under the comment you took it from and not the original comment. Does that make sense?

I'll keep the game going all weekend, because I'm alone and I have no where to go and a jug of tasty refreshments to keep me company. Of course, if no one participates, I will quietly delete this post and pretend it never happened. ♥

LETS PLAY!

P.S. for Livejournalers, I won't turn off comments over there (mostly because I can't remember how), but I DEFINITELY suggest you check out the Dreamwidth post as it is usually where more people comment and interact for this things. ♥

Okay, so I finished a short story and am feeling really good about my accomplishments today so I figured--it is now time to tackle the daunting task of putting myself out there in cyber space, once and for all. I have been putting this off for far too long, for much the same reasons that I don't keep a journal under my bed either...I don't want to be remembered for any of this drivel. Call it Twain-itis. (The man commented on the dump he took that morning and it was witty enough to make it into quote books for hundreds of years.) Who can live up to that kind of success? Who in there right mind even tries? Oh yeah, that would be me.

But then I read a book that really helped me out. I can't remember the title of it right now, but that's unimportant. It was a book of letters from famous people to their children. And with the exception of Twain (damn you Mark!) and surprisingly, George Bush Sr., they were all drivel. They were boring and chocked full of cliches and very few original ideas, they were common and everyday, and they gave me hope. If these people weren't afraid that their every sentence would be judged by the masses, than who am I to worry? I mean really, get over myself already!

So, here I am, with all my spelling and grammar mistakes, with all my cliches and unoriginality, unwittness...judge away!!
