caution: swearing

I swear to *god*, I have never been so close to abandoning Inevitable as I am right now. Think I can go back a few chapters and have Olaf and Nathaniel having a nice tea party instead? At this point, it would be less painful to spork my eyes out. This chapter is never going to fucking end.

[/rant]

yeah, yeah, back at it. No fic abandonage today.

So, um, today's link/rec/point: Today's Harry Potter news:

The Vatican's whipped out its head exorcist to say Harry Potter is evil. As anyone who's read [livejournal.com profile] mctabby's summary executions knows, he's right.

A blogger is comparing those recently unveiled claim that Judas was helping Jesus, as published in the Gospels of Judas, with the actions of Snape in HBP.

ETA: Sheesh, I'm whining again, aren't I? Somebody slap me. Really, I do enjoy writing. I do, I do, I do believe in fairies.

Note that Pope John Paul II actually liked and promoted the novels. Further confirming that he is the Kick-Ass Pope and Benedict XVI is the Stick-in-the-Mud Pope.

I'm on Ch. 43 of Inevitable, by the way, and closing fast.

tea party? Okay, back away from the keyboard.

Hey! Here's sending you happy calm thoughts in order to make your day a little brighter.

*hugs and kisses*

I assume you've seen the Pope Palpatine graphics? Yeah. John Paul II was like the renegade pope, while Benedict is a throwback/backlash to theology.

Oops! Then remove my comment from your brain and we're all good :)

Actually, giving up for the day might be the best thing. Give myself a chance to recuperate from teh woe.

And thanks :)

A break? What's that? *smile* That's probably for the best, afterall, you've been cranking out the chapters rather quickly later. Nobody's gonna give you a hard time for taking a break. And if they do, you just send them to me. *insert evil cackle here*

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
I guess I just want it to be *done* because I know how it goes, I just can't type fast enough to get over the woe. Also, Nathaniel is being spectacularly unhelpful right now. And every sentence seems to start with a proper noun. *cries*

Oh well. Tomorrow everything will be topsy-turvy; Anita will be the difficult one and I won't be able to write dialouge. Oh, to be a writer.

Thanks for the offer :P

*hugs* okay hun. you really need a break I mean seriously tea parties...*shudders* I have told you how awesome I think you are? and I really mean it..but as much as I love your fic I don't want you to be frustrated sooo take a break,relax..this is supposed to be fun remember. *gives you a cookie*

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Frustration is all in the job description, right? Only I'm not getting paid. Huh. Maybe now's a good time to go for a walk. I have to figure out some staging... and take out the trash before tomorrow, too.

Thanks :) I like cookies.

Writing is fun and enjoyable.

If you need a little break, you could mess around with livejournal, and start requiring people to use kittenauth before posting:

Would it be a tea party of doom? (lol...sry, that was something from a story I just finished reading =P)

Breaks are good, they are your friend. The story won't go anywhere, it's in your mind, after all. It would be sad to see you all stressed out. After a walk (did you go for a walk?) maybe read some more of those summary executions...those were figgin hilarious!!

I do believe in fairies, I do I do! (best movie eva, swear to gosh! hehe)
and whining's not that bad, everyone does it. We forgive you! ;)

I did go on that walk. 40 minutes of, get this, listening to voice files I've recorded on my mp3 player. I got a bad idea, that I should record a few podcasts for my shorter stories, including some of the upcoming shorter outtakes from Inevitable itself.

Maybe I'm crazy. (whaddya mean, "maybe"?)

[identity profile] hartswood47.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yes I agree, take as much time as you need. The important thing is that you don't feel pressured to write when it won't flow. Plus Nathaniel is resilient, I'm sure he'll bounce right back! And Anita will just deal with it by burying it in her subconscious to fester like she usually does. Unless you've got some character development planned? Oooh I love character development. Say you have some planned!

Peter Pan is the best movie ever!!!

I know! And so does my icon :P

I've got some planned. For both Anita and Nathaniel. And, as an added bonus, there's screaming and yelling and misunderstandings and Asher :)

All I need to do is put the proper words in the proper order. No pressure, right?

Goodness, honey, you need a break. Take a month or two off if you need to. I think we'd all rather wait then have you abandon our obsession all together. ^__^

As for the Vatican thing... There are some days I wonder why I'm converting to Catholicism. Close minded morons. *sigh*

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, no breaks. I can do this... just some days it's harder than others O_o

I've discovered the strangest thing. http://www.ljseek.com. I can search my username and find people writing. About me. How creepifying and rather fun at the same time. But I digress. Bedtime for me :)

[identity profile] shadowartemis.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
*pat pat* Take your time. I believe all of the Inevitable fans will agree that the chapters are worth the wait.

It is good, that you enlighten people about Harry Potter, because those are subtle seductions..

"Are you a Slytherin or a Gryffindor like Potter? Seduce me subtly, babe!" *is lame and too tired to be creative*

Those summary executions are brilliant. I've never seen anyone do that with the summaries before. *love*

Lol, I'm afraid that I, too, am guilty of gushing about your updates on my lj. I'm such a stalkerish fangirl.

The second link doesn't work. Flamed off the Internet, perhaps? Anyway, that first link does not come as a surprise. First thing I ever heard about this new pope was comments he made while still the lower rank (cardinal?) about Harry Potter being evil or something like that. He seems much more conservative about his religion than the last pope was.

[identity profile] booster17.livejournal.com 2006-04-11 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
The summary link is freaking hysterical.

Harry breaks the charms Dumbledore placed on him and now he's pissed! Forced to hide his true identity for his whole life, he escapes the abuse of his relatives and with the help of Mad-Eye Moody, becomes who he is meant to be... Shadow Rhea Isis Riddle, daughter of Tom Riddle, Severus Snape and none other that Lily Evans will take her place by her fathers' sides. Many surprises are in store for her on her way back to her true home and family...including some interesting news about her heritage!A unique phoenix calls to her, love finds her, and a realization about her mother are a few things in store for Lady Lightning, the Dark Princess. (Includes abuse,rape, femslash, slash, vampire Harry Shadow, Dark Harry Shadow, and Manipulative Dakrish Lord Dumbeldore)

........Is it bad to want to read this now?

Hey, I know what you could do with the story...

Insert a shiny red plot device that has the ability to absorb the angst like a Bounty paper towel!
