Happy Saturday, Q, Denise, and everyone!It's a super warm and bright day in my neck of the woods - definitely feels like summer! *smile*
@ Q - Here's something cool for you to color!
(view spoiler)
@ Denise - I love thunderstorms and the sound of the rain. And I agree that those are the perfect days to curl up with a book and get lost in armchair adventures...
Well Q just scared me away lolHope you all have a good weekend. Back to work for me
@Denise, that sounds lovely! Its like 175 degrees today or something like that.@Renee, Thanks! At least someone encourages me to color naked.

Hope everyone had a lovely lazy Sunday!
Hm it's been a while since you used Cheese and Crackers..I must be slipping lol
Mod
Hope y'all survived with sanity intact!
Sarah, I didn't even START Monday with sanity intact. Yes, it was pretty rough, I was looking like those people there by the end of the day lol.
Not even done with Monday and my mind is fried to kingdom come. And that's cuz it's a day off lol

*LOL!*
Hiya Sarah!
I think I'm still somewhat sane... I might not be the best judge of that, of course, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it! *grin*
Wishing the same to you!
PS: Yesterday was Jared Padalecki's birthday so you just know I threw a wee party, right? ;)
Mod
(Mikey, sorry your day off is over :()
Renee...I know!!!! I just love him! And now that he is speaking out about depression and being an advocate for the ones who suffer...it makes him an even more amazing person!!
What was your lil' party like? ;)
Lol not over yet. Writing for Oak and I am going into a dark place I forgot i could go to. XD I think I feel my soul turning black lol
Mod
I had to go to a different place too, Mikey! You know how I love those Happily Ever Afters ;) Not to be in my TOWY ;)
lol haven't read yours or Q's yet. barely got to read kat's.....wow hers was just wow haha she looks so innocent! xD lol it's affecting me in the same way as An Angels Fail (if you still remember it) affected me. only here it holds more to what I observed in Texas and so becomes personal, while also loving my character and feeling so terrible for them, that it hurts continuing the whole chain of disaster lol aaaahhhh DX lol okay I got it out of my system haha
Mod
Yaaay :)
Mod
Justin says that to me all the time. LOL.

lol kat your story really REALLY surprised the hell out of me.
Mod
You know what helped me? Music...like, I listened to music to get in that mode. I have to feel my characters or the writing is just bland!
I totally understand what you are going thru!
that's what I got so far, Music. I have a playlist ready to pick me up while I sleep. i'm hoping to have the draft finished before I go to bed.
Mod
Awesome!!! :)
Oh and @Kat...I knew you had it in you, but you still surprised me. :D
lol same here, I read that excerpt you wanted info on, but I still wasn't prepared for that brutality. hopefully mine is more emotionally scarring that physical haha

I agree! *smile*
(Just check out the Supernatural page at 'Kiss and Tell' and you can party too! ;)
Mod
@ Kat - Are you shocking and surprising people again? Good for you! *grin*
(Gotta watch out for the innocent looking ones...)
Sarah wrote: "OH!! Did I miss the notification??? I'm going there NOW! ;)"*LOL!*
Have fun!
Renee wrote: "@ Kat - Are you shocking and surprising people again? Good for you! *grin*

Mod
*LOL!*
Have fun!"

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
In a good way!
(Is that possible? *LOL*)
Sarah wrote: "I left a party gift for ya, Renee ;)"Aw, thanks hon! I like prezzies! *grin*

don't know, but I never stop trying until it becomes possible XD
Mod
Look, Michael, the story had a life of its own. I'm just typing it all down. But for the record, I didn't think I'd be able to pull off that genre too. That was me experimenting.
I don't know why you guys are surprised- clearly you haven't seen my bookshelves. :D
lol I can understand that Kat, it's happening to me as I speak. just that you look so innocent xD and I've been down that genre, it's my niche, so it's not surprising for me to go uber dark. you and sarah though, i'll have to watch out for you two haha
though I have yet to read Sarah's and Q's but I kind figured Q had it in him anyways lol
I wasn't too surprised Kat. I've seen your bookshelves and read some of your prior work. I still shiver sometimes thinking back to it O.o
Mod
@Mikey...oh I can go dark...just didn't know I could. :D
lol so you surprised yourself Sarah? xD
@Mikey, yeah I don't think people are as surprised when I go dark lol
lol you always seem to go partways in your Brackett books, but hold back to keep it in the genre you want haha
Mod
TOTALLY!
Michael wrote: "lol you always seem to go partways in your Brackett books, but hold back to keep it in the genre you want haha"Exactly! I'm working on a pure horror novel now though, a little less holding back. Really, my TOWY story was dark, but not graphic.
I've gotta find some more time to read the complete work of you all. I started now, but I got to finish writing before bed time, haha. though I don't think I can compare. my story hurts me, but only because aspects are personal haha (no I was not a prostitute lol contrary to popular belief, just throwing that out there beforehand ;) )
but so far everyone seems to have some really good stuff
Renee wrote: "the Supernatural page at 'Kiss and Tell'..."Holla!
*Rachel out*
; )

Don't sell yourself short, your work is pretty damn good. Im looking forward to reading it.
lol thanks Q, but I always do haha. should've heard everything I was saying about my book the first time around I put it out there haha.
