Scuse me interrupting your musings upon weather. Just answering your poke. Yes, I exist! I am here.
Have been AWFUL at LJ in past years. Keep meaning to post. Don't post. It's now gone past point where I can post without feeling like a total dingaling. Will try harder.
But all is well and I see that you are busy bee. My my. Promotions. Dom/Orli (omg have you finished it yet? where?). Stuff in German. Learning Hindi
I have not got an address for you; can you email or private!message me with your contact details in case you fall off the LJ horizon? And I get worried?
I don't look in LJ every day or hour as I used to so if you suddenly post I may miss it! And I wouldn't even worry about being a 'dingaling'; who cares about that? We would just be happy to see you around. Me: would be ecstatic. And may not even see it so would only see 3rd or 4th post by which time the dingalingness would have passed. (Note the convoluted ways in which I try to lure you in.)
Can you give five-point update of life? Just a phrase or even word per item? e.g. 'novel finished' or 'novel unfinished' or 'novel? what novel?', that sort of thing.
In answer to you:
Dom/Orli: tormenting me and not finished. I am driven by the awareness that Msilverstar paid money for this fic! It's the first fic I've ever written for money and oh, the pressure! Also Dom/Orli? Am so out of practice so had to AU it and that throws up a whole 'nuther can o'worms.
2. Locked in a cell doing book edits. yes, final book edits. Book comes out October, here. I feel like Chidiock Tichborne, writing his elegy in the Tower before his execution. Woops, sorry, at least I'm getting paid for this (must remember that).
3. Have cat. Will post. Not through the mail, obviously, on LJ.
4. Never do any fun writing anymore, it's all work. See point #1.
5. But my pot plants are not dead yet!!!
Pliz to finish Dom/Orli, I need to read it. In fact I think I will go right now and look up your old fic. Don't be embarrassed! It gave me untold joy back in the day and the line 'The balls must swing free in the night' is an undying triumph.
Book! October! omg, how do I get my hands on it? What's the Australian amazon equivalent????? Will you be going on another world whirl tour? Who, um, is Chidiock Tichborne?
Writing for money. A quandary. Would love to discuss further with you!!!
You're going to look at my old swinging balls? Aww. You are Teh Sweet!
Post more!!!!! Are you ever on chat? Do people even still do that anymore? Are you on facebook?
I'm writing a political action thriller with a friend so that's a bit like you...
My prime of youth is but a frost of cares, My feast of joy is but a dish of pain, My crop of corn is but a field of tares, And all my good is but vain hope of gain; The day is past, and yet I saw no sun, And now I live, and now my life is done.
My tale was heard and yet it was not told, My fruit is fallen, yet my leaves are green, My youth is spent and yet I am not old, I saw the world and yet I was not seen; My thread is cut and yet it is not spun, And now I live and now my life is done.
I sought my death and found it in my womb, I looked for life and found it was a shade, I trod the earth and knew it was my tomb, And now I die, and now I was but made; My glass is full, and now my glass is run, And now I live, and now my life is done.
C. Tichborne
