Done a lot "" of work in the house today, especially the spare bedroom, which is now bedless after I hauled the old broken one out at last. Can I say at this point that getting a bed downstairs on your own is hard work, and it *hurts* when the damn thing jams your hand against the wall. I was ruthless chucking things away, I has to be, the house was filling up with junk. I had to keep repeating 'do I really need this?' and mostly it was no. But man, bagging Corey's old clothes to give away was hard.

I wrote a little after that but I've reached a place in my SeSa story where I'm stuck. I also wish I could decide if I like the style I'm writing in or not.

At least you've reached a point in your SeSa story. That's something some of us have not yet achieved. :)

Yeah, there is that I suppose :)

I'm sure your story will be started soon and be fantastic as usual.

*sigh* I'm sure glad everyone else has faith in that.

Well I've been reading through your stuff in your memories section and I haven't hit anything bad yet.

You have the ability to manipulate emotions so well. Your Em/Chris story made me feel like I'd been hit by a truck. I still haven't words to leave a real comment yet.

So I totally have faith your story will be fantastic, because you're a fantastic writer.

I'm surprised you braved the memories...most of the stuff there is not polished in any way, shape, or form, nor was it edited. I did it largely for my own reference, when I set up my website and can finish the organization and editing process. But thanks! Hee.

Being hit by a truck is bad, right?

I've had great fun in your memories, not just the stories, some of the memorable posts too.

Some stories can stand to be read unpolished, I know I enjoyed yours despite being unedited.

Being hit by a truck is bad, but I mean it as a compliment. Octobers hit so hard, I would have left a comment at the end but I literally couldn't see to write because of tears, and that's a *good* thing. I was wound so tight in the story the end was a body blow. Reading I could tell things were going to end badly, but I so didn't want them too. Chris/Em is my favourite non boys cross, so I wanted there to be a happy ending, but knew they wouldn't be.

But me feeling like that and crying is a compliment. Which helps me actually as I've been on the other side of this. I wrote a TS story where Simon died and all I got were, you made me cry mails, and I was gutted, I felt so guilty until my beta drove through my head that it was a good thing.

It shows you've touched someone on an emotional level, and that has to be good.

But I'll shut up now ;)

Awwwwww! *melts* Thanks, sweetheart! Knowing that you were touched makes me feel great, even if it was by tears. Writing that ending killed me, and I wanted to change it, and I wanted to write another AU where it was all fixed because God do I hate hurting Chris and Marshall, and gah, poor guys! But I couldn't do it any differently than I did.

A warning about the memoried posts--a lot of my opinions about things have changed. *laughs* Especially those regarding various Backstreet Boys.

You're welcome :)

I imagine the ending would have hurt to write, but sometimes you have to write what's real. Life's not all roses and happy ever after, so fiction shouldn't be either. Not that I wouldn't have loved to see Chris and Marshall all happy and together, but the end was what was needed for that story IMO.

I've noticed that *g* I was reading your post about Howie and couldn't stop laughing. Poor guy!

I've promised Em I'll make him happy in another story sometime. Chris too. They deserve it.

I confess I still don't like Howie as much as the rest of the guys. Something about him just turns me off.

Excellent. I'll look forward to reading it. Guess it's another story to add to your 'I want to write this' pile *g*

Must admit that out of all the boys Howie's my least favourite. I don't dislike him just like him least. It takes a lot to make me see past Kevin anyway.

and Nick now ;)

MmmmmmmmKevin. *purrs* My first favorite.

I'm excited to read your Nickstory, too.

Heh.

Good call, Nico.

I haven't _EVEN_ started mine; in fact, I've barely got ideas forming... ..but I think it'll work out just fine.

Anything I can do to help, Terri? I'm not too knowledgeable of SDB, but I've read enough now to have a feel for character (*Nsync for sure, anyway...) and some grasp of fanon... ..and I'm ALWAYS, repeat: -=ALWAYS=- up for continuity checks, grammar, dialogue, mechanical stuff, etc etc.

C'mon... ..use me as a beta... ..you know you wanna... *evil grin*

Thanks for the offer, I took you up on it :)

And the offer goes for me too. I'm not that good at technical stuff but I can discuss ideas and sdbs with the best of them *g*

Heh. Catching up on LJ.. and I just had to ask: Who's the guy in your icon? Is he the one in your other Mutant X icons as well?

It sure is. I've had a major thing for Victor Webster for a few years now. This is the picture that the icon is taken from. I just think he's so gorgeous!
