It's times like this that I wish I was better at improv...

IN WHICH THE STORY WRITES ME
I knew going into it that Lows & Highs would be the most difficult story for me to write, simply because it's about a girl dealing with severe depression. But I never expected how it would trip me up. That and more non-related story ideas below the jump.
Well, it's hard to not say I'm kinda disappointed with how reception of "Reaching the Absolute" turned out. Looking back on it, I can't help but be a little negative of it myself. The horror bit of it seemed too short, and the whole story seems like a big case of shock value more than actual horror. [facepalm] Should've read it over a little bit more before I sent it off.
But what do you folks think? What could've I done differently to improve this story?
STILL WORKING, IF SLOWLY
I've started work on Adagio Dazzle Wants A Burrito. No promises on when it'll be finished or how long it will be. "Sunset" and "Sonata" ended up being exactly 45 words apart in length (with "Sonata" being the longer of the two). If "Adagio" clocks in at around that same length, it'd be great and fitting, but I won't know until it's written.
I thought I'd give you some comics to enjoy, some of which I relate to, while I re-install VS for, almost literally, the billionth time.
BECAUSE MY BRAIN DON'T WORK TOO GOOD
Fun Fact: I actually typed up a "Random Ramblings 42" post three days ago to talk about the one-year anniversary of writing Highs & Lows, but evidently I closed my browser without actually posting it. Boy do I feel like an idiot.
Instead, I feel a need to rant about writing (what else is new?). Here we go.
Can I make a g5 story without ever having watched the g5 movie?
Kingdom
Wang Yi: I thought you wanted to start a little Mm mm mm! with me.
Absolute Duo
Tor: Your beach mode is about the same as your bitch mode.
I wouldn't ordinarily ask questions like this, but how do I block/report other users on Fanfiction?
Her name is Samantha and she is a stupid and childish idiot. When Panda knelt to tie the laces of his shoes, Samantha mistook it as a marriage proposal. I was like, "What the fuck?! You can't marry someone you just met! Listen to Elsa, for fuck's sake!". Fortunately, Panda broke away from her and good thing she didn't appear in other episodes anymore.
You know this won't end well for him. But that's why you read it, right?
It will be up shortly. It's more my normal fare.
I have...two projects in the works as well. Both are oddly serious. One involves WTBB, which I will touch on more in another blog post, and the other is something entirely new. It'll take a while to get going, so you won't see much of it for at least a month or two, but I'll give you a couple of clues:
-it's multipart
-it's not comedy
Me: curls up to do a little writing
My 15-lb. cat: clambers right up onto my chest and plants his rump against my throat
Me, forcibly looking at the ceiling: (thinks) "Well this is happening."
