Posted a DMC fanfic to
madfiction, if anyone here is a fan.
So Europe was good for a lot of things, including the clearing of my head. My greatest problem is that I don't like waiting. I want things now, now, now. Patience is something I've always lacked.
But it's time to get over that. Three things I really want to do: Go to Japan, go to grad school, and write. Especially write - I should never have started, because now that I have it's all I really to do. My mother and various friends have been encouraging me to do it seriously for awhile, I figure it's time I started listening. I don't think I'll be in-the-bookstore-published for years yet, but there are online avenues and such I'd like to take. I am also still applying to grad school, and if that doesn't work out then Gomes will have to deal with me in September.
Now I just need to finish up (or, as
jagen13 was brave enough to do, just stop) what I'm doing online. I also need to decide what stories to write for submission. I wish I could just sell me stories online like this one chick does...what is that address...
enough rambling: I want to submit something to Torque press. Do I do the ghost story or the dreaded vampire story? Note that in my list of pet peeves vamp stories rank pretty high - it's rare the vamp story that I actually like. So I've determined to write one. Speaking of which - does anyone know the word for blood in...russian (where's my sister?), chinese, korean, or anything else? I have spanish, french, italian, and german.
okay, done now. lj is way too distracting, especially when I want to whine.
