Barrel-of-fun


Once upon a time, I dreamt of being a mad scientist when I grew up. After much consideration, I realised that science is quite hard. So I became a mad writer instead, which is much easier. True story.

    So for anyone who follows me but has not seen the latest chapter or Wild Card: Two of a Kind, here's the general message of my author's note:

    Song Lyrics Fiasco

    Apparently there's some butthurt rangers going round reporting fics that have song lyrics in them, which is against the rules or something. So yeah, I'm gonna be doing some editing on the earlier chapters to cut out lyrics and avoid getting my ass sued by people with more money than God.

    And that last sentence should pretty much sum up my feelings on this whole matter.

    My apologies

    No update for Wild Card this week I'm afraid. Just not feeling it at the moment. I'll be back when I manage to get out of this funk I'm stuck in at the moment. Honestly, I just want to get this story over and done with, but can't find the inspiration to write anything that doesn't look like complete tripe.

    Sigh

    See you next week probably.

    Wild Card Updates

    No chapter this week I'm afraid. I'm away on a visit to the university that I'll (hopefully) be going to in a couple of months as part of an induction weekend. Whilst this does mean that I don't have access to my computer (writing this on my Ipod at the moment) and, thus, cannot do any writing or uploading, it does mean that I do have access to a load of alcohol and some very cool people.

    Problems

    I have encountered a small problem whilst trying to write the next chapter of Wild Card. A small problem known as the Greater Demon of Writer's Block. Seriously, I have been staring at a piece of paper for about two days now, desperately trying to think of what I want to happen in the next chapter and so far all I've got is: 'maybe a battle of some kind?'

Song Lyrics Fiasco · 8:42pm Nov 5th, 2013

Basically, there will be some changes, try not to get enraged over them. Thanks.

do you know how it all started? if you dont ask me or just check a guy called Kaiden and his las or second last blog!:pinkiehappy:

You and every other CGotG writer, myself included. We've ALL got some form of song lyrics.

If that thing includes small quotes from singular songs, I'll have to edit all of the chapters I've ever written.

That sucks, those lyrics really added a whole new depth to the stories and made them so much more enjoyable. Can you still post a link to the song at least or is that also against the "rules"? I'd feel really sad if I knew the sequel or any future stories will be completely without any songs. It's like watching "Friend in Deed" without the smile song. Just not good enough.

But what would Jim Carrey say!!!! Nah, I will be sad about that though. One of my favorite parts.

Good thing I read it already.
