Another fan fic recommendation
Mar. 24th, 2004 09:41 pmOkay I just finished reading another great story by Empress of the Eclipse called Under your Spell http://www.thedarkarts.org/authorLinks/Empress_Of_The_Eclipse/Under_Your_Spell/
What I want to know is why I haven't I heard of this author before? I mean surely I'm not the only one who likes her writing style.
Now I just have to try and be patient while she finishs this story and Reptile. grrr
Trying not to feel envy that someone else wrote this wonderful story, I sometimes wish I was as talented as my favorite authors. But maybe they practice more often...so I shouldn't complain too much. :)

Don't be jealous! *huggles* I have been practising since about six which means you cultivate a style! And I read like a scary freak - and that's not an eggageration either!

I meet 3 people like that in my creative writing class. Was very shocked. but hell you probably meet people like that on the internet from time to time too if you talk long enough.

I never understand ANYONE who hates reading. I just can't imagine it. It's one thing that I simply cannot grasp, try as I might. *shakes head* Unbelieveable.

Date: 2004-03-26 06:12 pm (UTC)I one time considered writing down a list of every book I have, because I hate when I want to reread a book and it takes me 30 minutes to go through every book on my bookshelfs to find it, and worse when I can't find, I start wondering if I really owned it, or borrowed from the library, and then I tear the house apart looking for lost books. :( grrr
My dad used to tell me I can only check out as many books as I could carry with my bare hands...I think I got 25 that time hehe, they were stacked all the way up to my chin. My dad's reaction was worth the effort. hehe. :)

I take a bag to the library although I have been known to drag home tons. 25 in your bare hands? Nice work! :D
