Dear Readers

[tygati]

Dear Readers,

If you send me a note saying 'please reply,' it would be nice if you enabled messages on your end so that I can reply. -__-;;

That said, since the subject has come up a couple of times recently, I'll just make this announcement public.

I have no issue with people saving my stories to their personal computers to read in case of internet outages / travel / LJ having a brain fart / etc. I expect it. After all, what if LJ goes down some day and I'm too lazy to put them back up again somewhere else?

I myself have saved any number of stories from years ago, none of which I can find anywhere on the net in the present day. :( Sadness, cause I'd love to see what those long-ago beloved authors are doing now. (I did track down one, actually. *luvs on neemeister*)

I will take offense if any of my Lulu books are shared around or made public or whathaveyou. I chanced across a site one day where someone was asking for a copy of Dragon Isles, and was most irked. All but one of the stories in that book are available for free here on LJ. If you want the last story so badly, then spend the couple of bucks to get it. :P

That said, would anyone like to be my writing buddy? I seem to work best when I can 'trade' snippits of story with someone else, thus motivating the both of us to work harder in order to get the rest of it. :)

Love,
An AWOL Author

*sigh* Some people just deserve being beaten with a big stick!

I'd love to be your writing buddy for this week, at least. I have a Halloween ficlet to write. ^_~

Of course, I'll do that after finishing the trimming on Ignis' overcoat. I should have that done tomorrow. *eyes the half-sewn metallic trimming and the annoying metal thread it requires*

Mmm, Halloween. I'm kind of 'meh' this year. Some day I'd like to get costumes made for the boys, but first I have to learn to sew. Mikey's not good for much sewing lately. :/

I still can't sew straight on the sewing machine, so all the sewing I do is by hand, unless I can persuade my mother to cooperate. But I'd rather not appeal to her kindness too often.

*hugs your boys and thinks they should wear each others' clothes this Halloween*
