I've decided to join the sesa, despite the fact that I'm terrified about doing so. It's all very well writing for yourself but it steps up a level when you write for someone else. I must be mad. Especially as I have a MX story that *must* be finished and my languishing TS AU.

Last night James went clubbing. I waited up for him and had to laugh when he came home. The club he went to had cages on each corner of the dance floor, and in each cage was a buff guy dressed in a skin tight devil costume complete with tail and horns. He said at least there could have been a woman in one of them *g* I laughed then but didn't later when he told me he saw the guy who'd given him absanith (sp?) when he was at the ball last month. At the time he told me he'd fallen asleep in one of his friends bedroom, what he hadn't said was someone had bought him two drinks of absanith. I was so mad last night. He doesn't seem to realise how dangerous that stuff is, that's without how stupid it is to accept a drink from someone that he doesn't even know. I asked if he'd be happy if I drank stuff from someone without being sure what it was, but it didn't seem to sink in. Dragging the story out of him it seems that he ended up propped in a corridor drunk out of his mind, and luckily one of his friends found him. It's such a stupid thing to do. He only drinks occasionally as he prefers to be the designated driver, but when he does he drinks far too much, stupid idiot.

He's gone out again tonight with one his friends and Corey is up my mam's, so I'm going to have an uninterrupted night on my own. Half of which will probably be me staring at the sesa page, working up the nerve to join.

Go! Go now! Sign up! Think of how much extra time that will give you during the evening that could be spent usefully and profitably on, say, reading smut.

I've joined. I think it was the smut suggestion that pushed me over the edge. I like your method of encouragement *g*

Hmm. I'm not sure that the absinthe sold legally in the UK is all that dangerous - think it's about 60%, which is only 20% more than your average bottle of whiskey. It's the stuff sold on the continent you have to watch out for - that's about 90%, so I'm told. I have a friend who went travelling around eastern Europe, and she went to a club in Prague where they made sure that you could only buy a single glass!

That's good to know. Every time I've heard about the stuff it was all 'if you drink too much you go mad'. Which you probably would do if you drank the 90% stuff!

I might have to let James off this time ;)

I'm glad to see you're participating in the SESA thing.

it's my first go at it too. I'm kind of scared too, I've heard interesting things about it.

Good luck and make sure you have fun!

You don't want to know how divided I was about joining.

I'll be honest and say that I'm scared too. I think I will be until I see what I get. Then I'll probably get even worse *g*

Good luck to you too, I'm sure your story will be fantastic!

Yay!

Yay!

I joined; You joined too!! ^-^

I'll still die laughing if one of us gets the other's request...

Lemme know if you want ideas help or whatever, this is to be FUN! And a winderful act of giving, not about nervous wrecks and worrying yourself to death!!

Well at least I know you'd be able to write what I wanted, and know what I like in a story. It would be funny though. And you know what I like. Throw in some kink and I'd be happy, though I didn't actually ask for that, maybe I should have ;)

My main nightmare just now is getting one of the top writers with a pairing I don't like. Which will be something like Justin/Joey, in fact Justin anyone....sorry Justin.

I'm feeling a lot better about it now that I've took the plunge and joined. I may not be the best writer out there but I'm certainly not the worst. Plus sbd sex, that has to be fun! Doesn't mean I won't be hitting you with mails where I bounce ideas off you.

Hey now. ::pets Terri::
You're going to be too busy writing to be scared.
You can vent to me if things get overwhelming.
(but that's NOT gonna happen!!!)

Hey now. ::pets Terri::

Thank you, that feels good!

I'll keep your offer to vent to you in mind, thanks for offering.

I'm feeling confident today, and I've decided we'll both be fantastic. In fact everyone will!
