Here We Go...
Hello. Update time. Fun for all. Let's start by saying a few things. I'll even number them because I'm in one of those strange, strange moods.
ONE: Am trying to write Huddy. Am failing. Am not happy. Will not use a single subject in this first "thing".
TWO: I'll say it now: Something tells me I cannot "compete" with shadowfood's "Three's A Crowd". I like my story, and some people like my story, too. But apparently, many, many people are flocking over to her story -- and enjoying it quite thoroughly. Jealous? No, not really. Her characters are in character; her writing is decent; she has all the components for a story and adds in her own pizzazz. What can I say? She's not pretentious; she's concise. People like what she does. It's simple. It's in character. It's Huddy. It's what the people want. Writing is not a competition -- which is why compete is in parenthesis -- but it does feel like one sometimes.
THREE: If anyone cares, I don't know when "The Land of Qualms" will be updated. I have ideas, but not control of the words I need to write them.
FOUR: I might be writing a bit of an "essay" on why, I think, Sara is attracted to Grissom and why what happened, happened. But don't hold me to it.
FIVE: Yes, more journal has grown more pointless. I realize this. Don't be surprised if I take a little hiatus or something from updating.
SIX: I have no idea when I'll have the CSI fanfiction recommendations up and running. Trust me -- schedules and thyself, we don't mix that well.
SEVEN: Thank you to
blushingsigh for the review for "Seesaw". Truly, my ego swelled dangerously. ;)
EIGHT:
blushingsigh, I'm ready to beta your story. I apologize for not being online last week.
NINE:
lemonjelly_, that e-mail will be to you by the twenty-eighth. I don't care if I have to forgo sleep for the next three nights. This is one promise I'm forcing myself to keep.
TEN: To help cure my writer's block, I am reading different fanfictions. The authors I'd like to thank are (and I am not going to plagiarize from you, because I'd hang myself before I did that):

ELEVEN:
lemonjelly_ I'll be sending you some music very soon. It's a shame I've been so pathetic in sending things to you.
TWELVE: Also,
lemonjelly_, I've no idea when I'll be done with the drawing. I'm not even trying to guess.
THIRTEEN:
blushingsigh, I don't know when I'll post a preview of "Of Sand and Cigarettes". After recently re-watching an episode, I've realized it's not exactly plausible, so I need to correct it.
And that's all for now. Good night.
