Yayayay! I'm looking forward to it. I think this story would be a lot more fun to write, cause there's so many places you can go with it. Don't get me wrong, I think the Odd Pair is great, but this is more...orginal.
Hehe...yeah, maybe someday I'll write that Frert. Just not very inspired right now.
Yeah, AP said it would be out February, but Jeph had said they'd only start mixing in February. I'm pretty sure they'll be done before the end of April though, because they're playing at Bamboozle (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I'm SO going!)on May 2 or 3 and I'm thinking that'll be part of their tour. I got Buried Myself Alive stuck in my head, and I just realized how much I love the Used. They're just...wow.
Um...my Quert...I don't know if you saw in one of my responses to a reader, but it's on hiatus. I'm probably gonna ditch it, cause it's kinda boring to write adn the plot crisis developed into a plot failure. So I might just leave that.
I definately won't be writing it until I put up the final chapter of Rise/Fall (which is not going too well...). And I decided to leave Mirror Becomes A Razor as a one shot, because I thought it was way to powerful to have a second chapter. Maybe I'll start a new story though, who knows. That's all my story-updates, I bet you didn't even need to know half of that, haha.
And sorry I keeping spamming you with my crappy rants, they're pretty fuckin' pointless. I just like to rant, and I'll rant to any author who responds...
Author's response
Yeah, this story is a WHOLE lot more fun to write than The Odd Pair. I think it's 'cause I know the basis of where this story is going. Plus, I REALLY love writing Bert as a character. It come's pretty naturally. And I love his character in this story. Though you probably think he seems like a dick haha.
Oh my God, you're going bamboozle....to see the Used! Wow, you HAVE to tell me how it went when you go. In intricate detail. And you need to tell me EVERYTHING about the Used and how they are, what they look like, what they are like live etc etc. Damn I am so jealous. Is it possible for for you to meet them and get pictures and stuff? I will envy you so much if you can. Okay I'm going a bit over the top now.
Aww I'm sorry to hear about your Quert. No I didn't know about the Hiatus, but if for you it's getting difficult to write and you don't know what to do with it, then I'd advise you to just leave it. There's nothing worse than a story that's forced out. Maybe one day you'll all the sudden get this surge of inspiration for it and you'll want to continue.
I reviewed your chapter for Rise/Fall (which was excellent by the way) and I basically said there what I'm gonna say now. Make the chapter to how YOU want it and take all the time you need. It's the last chapter and it should be written to the best of your capability. Don't stress or anything, I'm sure other readers see it the same way too. And yeah, I agree, A Mirror Becomes A Razor should be left as a one-shot actually. It was pretty powerful as a one-shot, as you said, and perhaps if you continued it may have ruined it. Yeah I totally get you on that one. So basically, after you've finished Rise/Fall, you have nothing left to write ha. But you may get motivated to start another story. Or even our Frert. Lol.
And you're not ranting, because I'm enjoying writing this. It's more of a conversation. In the form of words. I'm sorry if I'm ranting to you. Honestly, if you don't wanna, you don't have to reply if you want this rant/conversation to end. But yeah, we are kinda spamming this review page haha. But hey, it makes me look like I got a hella lot reviews! Oh, and you can email me whenever y'know. I'll reply...
