turpsIt's pouring down here, so of course today is the day that we have to go out.
Also, can I put on record that I suck at baking. Corey and I made cakes last night, the kind that you make from a box, you just add water and an egg. First we only had enough stuff for 8 cakes and not 12, cooked them and attempted the icing. Watery is an understatement. But that's okay, you just add flour to thicken it up right? Wrong. It thickened up okay but tasted like flour paste :( So yes, me and baking = disaster *g*
I'm going to update all my sites later *crosses fingers* upload the new Sentinel Thursday stories, and new MX ones, then finish making my popslash site and link it to my Populli one. It's a little annoying that I can't upload my RPS stories there too, but I understand and respect that some people just don't like the genre. It's not that big of a deal to make a new Geocities site, just that pagebuilder seems so restricting now. I'm a HTML snob, I admit it.
I also want to get stuck into The End3. I haven't wanted to write lately, but the bug's back now. I had some nice comments about the story I did for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sentinel_thurs even though I wasn't that happy with it. I thought that the misdirection didn't work that well, and Jim's probably a little OOC but it was a fun story, and the fact that people thought I'd written het amused me a lot *g* Then the drabble I did for boyband drabbles had some nice comments too. People fluttering their eyelashes and asking me to share myself between fandoms is guaranteed to make me lol. I've discovered I like drabbles but they're hard to write. Hitting the word count is difficult but so satisfying when you manage it.
I'm enjoying fandom again right now, new MX pictures yesterday, people that take the time to comment and be supportive of what I do. All my sites are running nicely, the itch to write is back, a new project is in the wings for TS and a new fandom that lets me act like my inner teen. *terri twirls round the room* Hmmm, must stop doing that though lol.
ETA: I'll remember the name of my own community one day *g*

Date: 2003-08-30 12:02 pm (UTC)Well if you look at my main site you can see what I've done with the rps branch *g*
Don't worry I didn't use PageBuilder, couldn't give up my beloved HTML.
Yeah, I am enjoying fandom just now. Doing too many drabbles maybe but what the hell lol.

This and that

You want to get *stuck* into it? Hell, no, I want you to *float*, to write. *g* Not getting stuck. *g*

Glad to hear that. If you ran in a problem, just post it in your LJ, I love to comment on "problems". Yeah, fear me. ;-)
And what did I hear about a new project in TS? Yeah!!!! Tell me more. *g*

Date: 2003-08-29 09:41 am (UTC)Lol, thank you! One thing that I'll never do is write het, I found it weird trying to think of the truck in terms of a woman. It's something that I've never written and have no desire to. Het and sap are *not* what I'm about.
Nice to hear you're into writing mode.
Thanks. I missed it, I like writing but when I don't want to write it's pointless trying.
