I'm in awe of my flist. Truly.

There has been a deluge of all these brilliant drabbles and ficlets from [livejournal.com profile] absolutefiction, [livejournal.com profile] deleerium, [livejournal.com profile] geniusartist, [livejournal.com profile] honeyandvinegar and [livejournal.com profile] talesinbloom.

With stories ranging from Orlijah to Elijah-as-Harry Potter and the most recent - Freke, what makes them absolutely awesome is that it seemed like they were all written in under three minutes! Gosh, it usually takes me 3 months, more or less, to cough out 300 words :-(

So even though I'm quite unable to join in the writing, I enjoyed reading them very much. I may not comment on each and every ficlet/drabble ( there are so many! ) but I did read all of them and they are all totally brilliant.

Love you all.

*kow tows three times*

Aw hon!!!! :):) Yer so sweet... but don't let things like other people's writing or what not make you feel like this!! Keep in mind with me...

...I'm a stay-at-home mum with a kid that's easy as pie, and likes to sit and do his own thang...
...I've always had this manic ability to get out fifty-pages in a night, but it's mostly due to an effed-up psychosis, LOL...
...I do NOT beta my work- THAT'S why it gets out fast. This can be neat for output but... LOL, I mean c'mon, sometimes I look back and wince at typos, awful spelling mistakes and some grammar boo-boos.

I LIKE what I do, but I ain't perfect. I can really stink sometimes. WHEE! Keep in mind as well...

...I've LERVED what YOU'VE put out.

;)

*tackles*

I adore you. *GLOMPS* To stick me up there with all those awesome people made me squee right out loud and then people looked at me funny. :P Thank you darlin'.

It's taken me ... uh, when did I post the drabble thingy? Friday? Saturday? So like, FIVE days to do ...uh, four? See, I don't even know how many I've got out, just that I still have a lot to do, and it's gonna be a miracle if they get out before everyone's flashing false teeth and scooting around in jazzy chairs around here. *double :P * And it's taken me TWO YEARS WTF to get near the end of Frat, and don't I still owe you a drabble/fic for this icon? And I LOVE LOVE LOVE your 101 Ways to Make Love, and I say 'and' way to often. :D

So in conclusion, I adore you, I take forever, and you are more awesome than I'll ever be.

The End.

*not worthy bowing*

Awww honey ... I wish I could give you a real hug but this would have to suffice *hugshugshugs*

I'm not really complaining it's just that sometimes it's quite frustrating to have all these images ( slashy ones of course ) in my mind but the words just do not come. I use to think that it's because English is not my 1st language until I 'met' [livejournal.com profile] i_o_r_h_a_e_l and [livejournal.com profile] illyria_novia. Oh boy, can those two write!
Lj has helped me a lot though. I would never have thought of writing fics before, just those dry essays and such.

But enough whinging! I've got your latest to read.

And hey, manic is good if it means that we'll get to read all those yummylecious C/Z. And thank you for the pep-talk honey ♥

ROFLMAO omg false teeth Tales? You could always make people laugh and feel good, whether in your fics or comments.

Love ya. I still bow to you. And I use the italics way too often :-DD

*stares dreamily at your icon*

*hugssohardrightback!!* Ooh how we SQUEEZE!!!!!!!
What language DO you speak, initially? I've thought you were in England, am I wrong? If not, you're incredibly coherant, so no worries there!!
And yea... I have to admit, sometimes I don't mind the BAD manic side ("ARGH! I can't find my effing socks!! I'm gonna EXPLODE!! AHHH!") as long as I write, and KEEP writing. :) Almost hit a dry spot the other day. In fact, that's why I started writing my "Up Standing" story again. A fresh start to an unfinished story, instead of banging my head for bunnies. ;)
*lovelove*!

OMG, layne, I just got the package, and you are SO GOOD to me - not just some printed pages, but a BOUND story!

What lovely Malaysian stamps, too. I think I'll keep it, envelope and all.

*hugs you and jumps up and down*

Glad you got the package safely. I hope you'll enjoy the story as much as I did. And I'd love to hear what you think of it.

Thanks again!
