blather: writing without a net

[arrow00]

You ever have one of those writing moments when you reach the point in the story and all of a sudden you're on a high-wire and the ground is like a gazillion feet below you and your stomach is all heavy because you just know you're gonna slip and fall and splash your intestines all over the sawdust?

And the crowd will go: "Ewwwww."


There oughta be a mood icon for that.

given your track record with writing, i think you should have plenty of faith that you WON'T slip and fall and make the crowd go "ew." OTOH, i do know JUST what you mean...eeek, sometimes it's a SCARY business.

also? I LOVE ALL OF YOUR ICONS. have i told you how much? gah. "think steve mcqueen?' with that cap? BRILLIANT.

you are one to talk, you who have the very cutiest icon EVER. did you draw it yourself? can you draw me one where they are forehead-to-forehead with BUZZ CUTS? :)

"think steve mcqueen?' with that cap?

He has to think REALLY HARD to save Fraser!!

i think you should have plenty of faith that you WON'T slip and fall and make the crowd go "ew."

Oh, you have no idea the schmoopy depths to which I have sunk this time. But I have adopted an attitude of "some people *like* intestines." So we shall see.

hee! these little guys? they're by pentapus. she mainly works in SGA, but she did a one-off for due south, and it's BRILLIANT, isn't it? it's THE WHOLE SHOW in a tiny box!

and i have every faith that folks will like what you've got...

It is the bestest thing ever. I must go find the original post and fangirl her ass off.

I will make you an icon if you want? It doesn't look like you switch off much, but if you tell me what kinda thing you're interested in I can make you one just to have.

OH, MAN! i would absolutely LOVE an icon from you! i was even offering a 1,000 word podfic to those who made me one, and i would gladly extend that same trade to you.

as i think you can see, RAY KOWALSKI is what i'm interested in, at least when it comes to due south. i leave it up to you, though, because yours are just BRILLIANT, so make whatever you like?

*dances*

oooh podfic! has anyone done spuffy's Signal to Noise (http://spuffyduds.livejournal.com/95905.html#cutid1)?

I will RayK you to DETH. :) Do you want your name on it, too?

[zabira.livejournal.com]

no, i don't THINK anyone's done that yet. and i LOVE spuffy! she's given blanket permission for podficcers, so i could just pick another one if that's been done before?

as for the icon, it doesn't need my name, no, but if you have words you want to put on it, YAY for that!

in fact, YAYAYAYAYAYAY! thank you!

Any spuffy will do me. I adore every single damned thing she's written.

::thanks you back!::

You guys are making me do gleeful spazzy hands. Snif.

And no, nobody's done that one, that I know of.
