Bwaahahahaa ha ha ... Ah... I love it
-
Oh come on 10,000 words in 10 days is fast ... I dunno if I can write any quicker man ... Takes time to get stuff right. You have to write then rewrite and then before I post I send it to my iPad to read as if I'm a reader and it's funny how you get a different view that way and then I usually spend one more evening rewriting after that. This time took longer cause I wanted to get the kiss right but yeah as you've noted blakes outward looking compassion is a cure for inward looking insanity and vice versa ... I think that's where I'm going with this maybe sorry about the cliff hanger ... I can't help but chuckle a bit at my own evil though hehehe
-
Like all writing I base it off my life huh ... That's all anyone can ever do glad u found it engaging and suspenseful ... Wait till I write the rescue! Lol
-
Haha ... It does seem to take around 10. Funny I had lots of extra time cause I was sick but still ended up taking 11 days huh? I wrote 9000 words in the first 7 days then spent the last three on that kiss scene. Rewrote it so many times i reckon it took longer than the rest combined. Easter long weekend and Anzac day here in OZ so hopefully more time to write. Stay tuned!
-
Yeah sorry it was a bit heavy and depressing huh? Even by my standards! But off set surely by the kiss huh? Finally got that ball rolling. Can't comment on your other musings ... U will have to wait and see. Sorry if it made u depressed but surely u knew what to expect from me and a chapter titled lost! More soon!
-
Ah the cliff hanger huh? Yeah it's a bit evil ... But that's how I roll can't produce chapter 17 I only have a rough outline. Still 3 public holidays this fri mon and tues in OZ so extra writing time! Stay tuned
-
Thanks Nephylim! Yeah that kiss hey ... Took me ages to write that scene. And afterwards I just couldn't stop tinkering with it! First bit of action between the boys in 100,000 words I wanted it to be good. Glad u liked! I'm writing as quick as I can!
-
Well he's gonna need to be rescued me thinks ... But by whom I wonder ...?

Blake had been dreading the morning since long before he was awake enough to know why. While asleep, he had curled into a ball and buried himself beneath the sheets and pillows, as if cowering from consciousness itself. Eventually though, the irritating sunlight streaming through the window dragged his mind to the surface, forcing him to open one eye, just a crack. Even that hurt. The light was like a dagger, piercing straight through his eyeball and into his skull. He quickly squeezed it shu

Haha ... soon. Chapter 16: Lost is written, but it needs work before posting. Check back soon!
-
Im gonna assume you mean agonizing in a good way and go: Thanks! I don't think it was clear whether Haze got his xmas present or not you know ... guess you'll find that out next chapter ... maybe. As for living happily ever after, that comes at the end of a story ... I'm not near the end yet huh. Can't post the next chappy till its done sorry ... need to finish the whole thing for maximum impact ... (i'll tell you a secret but, its gonna be called Lost)
-
yay I'm glad you like that one. That bit made me smile writing it too ... I tried to bounce around with the emotions of the reader a bit like that in the same way Blake was bouncing around. But yeah as usual it got angsty LOL ... How did Blake come to be like that? Well I guess I havent got to that bit yet. But there is plenty of precedent in the real world. In fact models end up more body conscious than most. Psychological problems are often out of touch with the factual reality (thats why their problems!). Anyway more soon!
-
... sorry you didn't like this one Monster33. Somehow I lost ya in between the last chapters huh? Too angsty? Maybe there'll be less angst in the next one. Nah who am I kidding there's gonna be more sorry. Even throwing them in your basement would produce angst at this stage!
-
Uh-oh ... You caught up. Hmmm ... now you'll have to wait for me to write more sorry. You chewed through it in like a day!
-
You're not even up to the Chapter called surprise yet hehe ... though that chapter 12 surprise was pretty surprising I suppose. You are going through this story too fast, you are gonna catch up to where I'm at!
-
Hmmm ... I think I know what you mean. I felt like that during the entire six seasons of Lost the TV series. The ending was disappointing. I must make sure I don't do that to ya

Chapter 10: From Bad to Nothing
Acedias commented on Acedias's story chapter in Chapter 10: From Bad to Nothing
Hiya ... thanks for reviewing I'm glad you like my characters and story. Hope you keep enjoying it too. -
I cant type that fast, but I've finished Dragon Age 2 now so no xbox distractions and my sis is no longer sleeping on my couch so I'm undistracted and ready to type!
-
Hehe why sacrifice entertainment for realism huh? Glad you liked it ... more soon
-
I'm glad you liked Nephylim ... though im not sure I want you held by the throat exactly?! Maybe just on the edge of your seat would do ... Yeah there is a lot going on, but somehow I reckon by the end of next chapter not much of it will matter ...
-
Thanks dude, t'wasa my aim to make it a bit of a ride and I'm glad u felt that it was I dunno when they'll find piece but it will most definitely not be in the next chapter ... The next chapter is gonna be worse I've decided. Maybe the chapter after that? Hehe I dunno! Thanks for reading and reviewing
-
Wow that's an awesome comment! Thanks for taking the time to share that with me man. I'm really happy it seems realistic to you and there's something you can take home from it. What more can I ask more soon!
-
Wow anyta ... 1 hour and 13 mins between me posting and you finishing and reviewing. I can't keep up! That took me two weeks to write I knew u would like this chapter, we talked a bit about it ages ago and then I put it off till now. I tried to make the whole evening one unbroken scene to keep the pace up and I'm glad u noticed and wrote about that in your review. I thought some timing was a bit off (e.g. drinks finished too quickly compared to the amount of conversation)) but decided to focus on pace. Neway thanks as always for your review and encouragement

The assembly of people with Blake at the bar that night were spread across a long wooden table, seated two or three to each of the wooden, backless bench-chairs tucked underneath. It had been decided that everyone would sit inside the bar that night, at a table, so that they could order something to eat as well as to drink. Blake disliked most social settings, but in particular he hated the ‘beer hall’ configuration that so often seemed to occasion birthday dinners involving large groups o

Sheez man put a spoiler warning on your reviews if your gonna write them like that - now I'm gonna have to change bits as it's obviously too ... Obvious what's coming next! I dunno that haze was about to confess undying love ... In fact I dunno what he was going to confess ... I always planned to have him interrupted but yeah obviously there is some ingredients for romantic advancement here: alcohol, drugs, new character jealousy... Surely something concrete has to fall outta this?
