Why there are going to be tons of old stories soon.

[roxy]

A while ago, I had a quiet and private breakdown...HAH! Yeah,as if!! Anyway, I went nuts just a little and cleared out my memories, and deleted tags and thank goodness, couldn't figure out how to get rid of my stuff on SSA. Now that I'm just a little less insane, I realize that I really don't stink as much as I thought I did, and folks do want to see what else you've written if they like a particular story. So, I'm going to try and replace all those fics--be forewarned, there are going to be lots and lots of stories that you've read before so please just ignore them. My next project is to upload all the icons I have space for. And ask myself why I have to make it difficult for me. Sometimes, I think I'm a little compulsive.

I had a bit of a breakdown myself a few days ago and turned almost everything in my journal to private entries. I just sat at my computer sniffing and swiping at tears and locking most things. I had to really fight with myself not to lock my fics up, too. Compulsive? Yep, both of us it seems. *hugs*

*HUGHUG* Oh gosh, don't ever do that, please! How would we suck in the innocent if they can;t get to the good stuff?

Geez, yes, i know! I just felt so crushed, and stuff was going on that kind of hurt my feelings, even though I swore nothing on line would bother me. Stir in some RL stuff and the over-whelming feeling that my stories were crap--oy.

We should make a pact to bail each other out of stupid when it happens!

*hugs*

Your stories are very much NOT crap. Not even close. Your stories break me and put me back together again, they draw me in and hold on tight until the end, they make me smile, they make me feel, they make me laugh, and they make me cry. I love reading your stuff. Your journal is one of the first places I go when I check my flist, because I want to see if you've updated whatever story you happen to be working on at the time.

And that was it exactly for me, too. RL overwhelmed and suddenly the things that never bothered me before, bothered me. As much as I love when people read my stories, I write them because I want to write them for me, not for anyone else; with everything else going on, I kinda forgot about that and started getting really down on myself.

Yes, we definitely should. *holds out pinky finger* Pinky swear that when one of us feels like doing something dumb, we tell the other first so she can talk us out of it?

Yes! The absolute minute! *shakes*
Oh, and I think I fixed the YIM thingy...it's sad to be this old and so techno-booby. On the upside, I really did love my pet brontosaur, Charlotte...
sorry, sorry.
