I owe people email (hi, Rox), I should reply to That Etta Person on the WeTalk boards, I should write some more, I should update my site, I should make a new main page for femgeeks, and what am I doing?

Nothing. Zip. De nada. Rien. Niks.

Blar.

i know how you feel.

i should be writing the next issue of the column. but im not. im sitting here thinking about how fuckable satanas is, and how i wish silver was online.

will probably go to bed very soon.

oh, the procrastination.

Ha! At least I'm contemplating a vague idea for a U2 bunny that might be something beyond "Bono and Edge snuggle." Yes, that's an accomplishment.

see isaac, on the right of the pic, mad/pouting? thats me.

[bubosquared.livejournal.com]

Don't be. They're frustrating the hell out of me, not letting me actually hear what they're saying. Irish bitches.

[kkscatnip.livejournal.com]

it's just because i am so frusterated over this issue of the column, right now. *sigh*

That reminds me I was planning to do a collumn for/about writers whose native laguage isn't English. Self, get your ass in gear.

[kkscatnip.livejournal.com]

yes, self! get your ass in gear! that sounds like a very interesting column, damnit. write it.

just friendly encouragement ^_^

this issue is about warnings/disclaimers... buh.. im totally dwindling on no inspuration/ideas.. i know what i want to say, but not how to say it.

buh. 'i get by with a little help from my friends'... *glares at radio* you can shut up, too.

Oooh. Give a notice when it's up, k? I'll have several things to say about that subject. :-)

I'll get the collumn written one of these days, honest.

[kkscatnip.livejournal.com]

how about you share the things here? that way i can maybe get a little inspiration... i feel so dead, not wanting to write.

Hm. Some peeves:

I dislike people warning explicitly for slash in the warnings (the pairing alone should be enough warning, dagnabbit!), giving slash a higher rathing simply because it's slash (a m/m kiss should rate the same as a m/f kiss) and generally reinforcing the idea that slash is somehow inferior to and dirtier than 'normal' het.

Also, disclaimers along the lines of "I don't own X and Y and they're used without permission, but Z is mine and if you use him/her without my permission I will hunt you down and kill you." You're writing fanfiction. Isn't it a bit hypocrytical to forbid fanfic when it comes to your own characters?

More stuff ... there's a bit of a dilemma between fair warning to the reader for certain content and not wanting to spoil the reader. This is why RareSlash and RS-X have 'generic warnings'. If you have underage sex, death, or whatnot, but you don't want to spoil the story, you can just say "Possibly disturbing themes ahead" and you're covered.

That's about all I can think of now.

people are stupid. they cant figure out that it is slash from the pairing...

and i am very protective of my OC's, but i wouldnt likely say something like that. you canw rite about my chara, just have the decency to e-mail me and tell me you liked it.. grr.. hate people that dont e-mail me about stuff.. (or people that direct link my hanson slash stories! (not the ones on ff.net) wah! and dont even fucking e-mail me about it! anyway..)

i hate spoilers for stories. to me, even a *rating* can be a spoiler sometimes. i'd rather say disturbing content ahead than warn for anything else. but its considered 'polite' and i really dont like people to think i am implote. but thanks for the comment, it has kicked the column muse into gear a little, i think.

Any time, hun. ^_^
