Feeling a bit down, so all I could manage was 100 drabble. *sighs*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

*huggles* Thanks. I think I'm just overtired. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that certainly doesn't help.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Nope. It's a joke how brain dead tired I am. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

After calming down a bit from yesterday, I did some edits in which I have the parents switched to adoptive parents lol. There are some scenes that I've been unsure for a while so I'm mulling on that and perhaps I'll see talking about one of my friends concerning that soon.

Only one other thing I did was started one paragraph of my fic exchange story because ahhhh beginnings are hard lol.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

that works (well in my head in general not even knowing the fandom but hey that's what transformative fiction is about)

beginnings are hard. Middles are harder (for me!)

day 19:

I had so little time yesterday, it was annoying. I changed a little of the same scene again, adding 20 words, but I didn't have the time to get into the part I really wanted to change.

day 20 (so far):

Last night my second beta sent me a mail saying she doesn't ship the pairing at all and she can't accept the sexual attraction at all. Not that she was saying I wrote it badly, just that the pairing was not for her. I know I can't make her ship anything she doesn't want to ship, but that is going to pull me down for a while, I think, no matter what.

She also told me how she saw the relationship as I wrote it, and it's not how I intended it.

So... I was mostly sad all night and spent my morning writing time composing a mail to her explaining where I wanted to convey what so she can tell me where I need to change what.


I still love the story. I wrote it for myself, and I definitely succeeded in creating something I personally find plausible and interesting. Now I just have to get over the sadness of having lost an interested reader. (She always is my most important reader.)

My plan to finish it and start posting it mid-November still stands.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I know how the no-time thing goes.

And I'm sorry for the punch to the gut from the beta reader. I've been there too (most recently with one of my original pieces). Hope you're feeling better soon and good luck with it.
