So it goes

[maderr]

Back at work. Didn't really miss it.

Wrote chapters 7-9 of Sandstorm yesterday. But am doubting my ability to keep the politics, who knows what, who knows who straight. Am really really hoping to submit this story to Iris Press (Print? Not enough coffee in my system...). Then need to go back and finish Burning Bright and Prisoner, then the stories I still owe people.

Ahahaha. Speaking of stories, I keep hearing this line in my head:

"So a priest, a werewolf, and a vampire walk into a bar."

Followed by a fight later in the bar, where the priest says:

"Bitch, don't make me get my uzi."

I have no idea.

Now off to write out more of Sandstorm before I must get to earning the paycheck.

Don't forget ficathon story. That's still hanging over all our heads.

I'd love to see a priest with an uzi.

I guess I should look at that again. I wrote like two pages of it, then got lazy. Hmm.

I think I've been pining after more Saiyuki. There's just no one cooler than Sanzo.

.... you say anything werewolf or vampire related, and my brain says Midsummer... ^^; And that story is so delightfully bonkers anyway, I'm sure you could fit an uzi-toting priest in there somewhere.. ;)

.... 9.9 Thou... it'd work in DwtD too, wouldn't it? ^.^; The atmosphere is still more Midsummer-y, though... ^^

Yay, Sandstorm! ^______^

I so wish I knew why that story hates me =_= I would love to finish it.

*snerk* I should put in DwtD. That'd piss Chris off like nothing, to have to go trekking around after a gun-happy priest.

It's waiting for comedic inspiration? ^^;; Tapdancing vampires and surfboarding mad scientists maybe? >.> .... note to self, less sugar...

^_____^ Almost anything pisses off Chris, but he's so cute when he's pissed!! ^_____^ I can just hear the banter between him and Doug over that... ^^

Print. Are you aiming to complete the entire thing before submitting, then polish it up if it's accepted?

The priest thing makes me think of Sanzo. Isn't the subconscious a wonder sometimes?

[maderr.livejournal.com]

That's the aim, and for once I might actually stick with it and not flake out >_>

Ah, Sanzo. My sekkret boyfriend. I'll probably never write the story just b/c it would probably turn into a huge ripoff or something.

=O Sanzo, you cheating whore! He's my secret boyfriend!

"So a priest, a werewolf, and a vampire walk into a bar."

Eieee! *claps*

"So, it was a corrupted priest?"

"No. He was a regular run of the mill priest. And he walks into this bar with a vampire and a werewolf."

"What kind of self respecting priest walks into a bar with a vampire and a werewolf?"

"I don't know. Just go with it."

"I would, but it goes against the inherent nature of any normal priest. Shouldn't he be damning them to hell or something?"

"Maybe it was a very pious vampire and a very devout werewolf? It doesn't matter to the joke anyway."

"What would a really pious vampire look like? I mean, can you just imagine them in church. 'And I this is the blood of Father Matthieu, which is not unlike the blood of Christ'. I suppose it would be a pretty interesting sermon, to say the least."

"...there's something seriously wrong with you."

"The devout werewolf is less of a stretch. He'd have his rosary beads and he'd be muttering hail marys in between turning into a furry beast of doom."

"Anyway, a priest walks into a bar with a vampire and a werewolf and no one in the bar, and none of the three of them find this strange or odd or noteworthy, and--"


"Now that's just not realistic, man. I don't think I can properly suspend my disbelief long enough to believe that a perfectly normal, not undead priest would walk into a bar with a vampire and a werewolf."

"Why would a priest be undead? No, wait, forget I asked, I don't want to know."

"No! Really, the undead priest is the least explored in the genre of zombies. Really, what would be more poetically ironic than an undead priest?"

"Poetically ironic? You're making this shit up."

"I am not. And anyway, your highly suspect vampire, werewolf wannabe and man of dubious religious intent walk into a bar together and?"

"And...and...Goddammit, I hate you."

"Forgot the joke again, huh?"

"Don't gloat."

"All hail the king." ^_^

(Sorry, the wine cooler made me do it. Honest.)

*dies laughing* You just totally made my day. That was awesome. Splendid. Freakin' hilarious. You pwn.

[thealisonbailey.livejournal.com]

Hahaha. I love "All hail the king."

Actually, the priest is an incubus. And, the paranormal western comic I wrote for M last year (but never drew) is "All coming back to me now!"

*drools* I heart the poncho. (See, now if stores would sell *that* I'd buy it. *____* Instead, all I seem to be able to find is shirts that you can't wear a comfortable bra with, but that shows the world if you aren't wearing one at all...)

Eieee!!! And the character is so cute! *tackle glomps* ^___________^ I love his earring and ear. *____*

[maderr.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo! I think I could die happy with that comic in my possession. I love his design. So very much.

It's on the list. But the list is long and growing ever longer.
