(no subject)

I'm working on East of the Sun, and also reading The Arrangement, by [livejournal.com profile] bittermint her novel! It's very *very* good, an original work that uses the premise of her Clark/Lex/Chloe story that omg, I loved so much and this? Is even better!! I love the way she reworked the characters--I find them even more compelling now...not that I've told her this yet, geez, I'm talking to you guys about it first, hah! I'm just really enjoying it.

Insane Journal is down and I'm kind of upset because I was posting the SpN story I was working on there. Not that I've lost it, it just helps me to write it, seeing it posted. I don't know why. Plus, I like having another place to drop my stories.

Here's something very odd about me lately. I've been really backpedaling from writing the nasty stuff--why is that, I wonder? I feel like I used to write the nasty stuff...did I? Or am I mistaken? Have I always been a wuss? I mean, that Alex/Wade scene--I completely rewrote that and softened the whole thing. *grabs your lapels* OMG--am I getting weak in my old age? What's wrong with me???

I'm so behind and screwed up on my friends list, I have no idea which way to go and I know I lost updates. I'll just have to stalk you guys.

Also, I'm feeling much better. And I love you, you know who you are. *SHMOOCH* I do! I'm stopping here so I don't have to do an LJ cut. :)

Preeeeeeetty icon!

Isn't it, though! *happy sigh* Pretty, pretty boy in drag. Mmmmm.

XD

oh, i don't think backing off a bit equates being a wuss. i'm reading less hard-core slash than i used to. we go in cycles, maybe, and we all evolve over time. if i were you, i'd trust my instincts!

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-04-16 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
But I liked writing that stuff...I think I'm just afraid to offend. *sigh* I guess I have to admit those days have passed me by. I'm a writer of shmoop now. It makes me sad. Soon, I'll be writing stories about Clark and Lex knitting...*clings*

shmoop has its place. and i get that about wanting to please people. (my lj changed as i got more readers -- i stopped feeling as free to say things that might offend, e.g., the eastern orthodox bishop on my list! i've sort of freed myself up again, but i had to think about it.)

knitting! well, i dunno. that does sound just a bit too domestic. *g* i don't read stories where they're long-time couples, or hardly ever. give me first times, man. clark as a virgin, woo hoo.

you'll get your moxy back, roxy, in good time. :)

Hmm never nasty, just....interesting :D I haven't read any Clex in ages, I've been all about dark Doctor/Master lately lol. I should probably catch up on some Clex soon though, what is East Of The Sun about?

And I'm glad you're feeling better :)

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-04-16 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
you're so kind!

East of the Sun is a major shmoop fest, don't even worry--but if you love me, you'll pass me some links to good Master/Doctor fics because that's been a favorite pair of mine since I was a wee Roxy. :)

A look at the consequences of the Doctor keeping the Master after LOTTL, and the drums starting to affect the Doctor too. They go evil together *dances* Except it's very sad when they kill the puffballs :/ http://selskia.livejournal.com/132868.html

http://th-esaurus.livejournal.com/592306.html is another post LOTTL fic that I like

http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=omphalos&keyword=New+Dawn+Fades+AU&filter=all is an excellent series once you get into it. It's all about the Doctor trying to fix the Master and bond with him, and there's lots of darkness and woobiness. Along with excellent sex



And versaphile generally has fic set during the year that never was, and her fic is very dark torture fic. I *really* like the Game Series. It's in my memories http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=frelling_tralk&keyword=Master+fic&filter=all I was worried at first because it was the Master knocking up the Doctor, and it sounded a bit too much like crack fic. But the Master is evil genuis in that fic heh. Poor Doctor. Victorian Gothic is supposed to be very good too, but I haven't got around to reading that one yet.

*hugs you tight*
*luffs you like crazy*

Bay-bee, you can post your spn story *here*!!
I wanna read it!
*flails*

And you know...the nasty stuff just...pales, after a while. It's better to hint and insinuate and leave to the imagination. :)
*smoooooooooooooch*

Oh, I know that it's better to leave the stuff to the imagination, I know that a lot of times that makes it even more horrible but I miss it, I do. I liked writing awful things. *sigh* I guess I'll just have to move on. It's that way in real life too. I used to be so scary, and now, I'm just a fat little round ball of grandmotherly-ness. No fucking wonder I'm depressed!!

Say, speaking of SpN, How about The Road Goes Ever On? I'm enjoying that one.

I haven't posted my SpN fic here because it's very much a rough work in progress, the end is iffy and I'm not sure how to weave the two different parts of the story together--let me get a little further along in Dean's story and I'll start posting here. I'll send you a snippet of Sam's story if you like.

Yes! Send me snippets. Send me anything. You know i wanna read!

Oh!
My regular email is being a bitch. Could you send 'em to tabaquij at gmail dot com instead?

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha. didn't I go and send it to the wrong e-mail? Take notes, little missy, this is what happens to you as you age...*hangs head*

You're working on more EotS?!?! Yay! *tackle hugs* *grins*

Insane Journal's been down for about a day and a half now. :P There's updates posted here if you're interested: https://twitter.com/insanejournal

that Alex/Wade scene--I completely rewrote that and softened the whole thing.

Umm... Thank you! *grins* Wade needs to keep his grimey, slimey paws off my poor Alex. *pets Alex*

Nah... you're not getting weak. Your stories have just as much impact with or without all the gory details. And sometimes, less details lets the imagination run wild, which can make the situation scarier.

*lots of love, hugs, and smooches*

Thank you lovey, you're so kind. I should just get over it and go with my mental flow. I'm working on the story, even if it's at a snails pace! *G* I do care about those guys, and I want this to be a good story. And thanks for being my audience--best audience in the whole wide world! *huggles*

I am a lot better. Maybe it's something in the air. :)
