(ups posted earlier by accident >.<) But anyway:

GO GO GO~ *______* You're an awesome writer and you know it!!!

\o/ \o/ \o/

n'aww thank you hon ;___;

*lovesquishes*

I wanted to thank you for sharing your amazing writing and artwork!!! I was reading your work over on fanfic.net and wanted to share my love. (also have you ever read a naruto yu yu hakusho crossover?) thank you again for sharing you genius!1

aw, thank you so much! ^__^

And as it happens, yes, I have. XD here: http://joisbishmyoga.livejournal.com/252288.html#cutid6 it's incomplete and she hasn't worked on it for a while, but it's still very neat. ^^ Hiei-and-Kurama-centric.

GO YOU GREAT INSPIRATION OF LITTLE PEOPLE~

XDD ♥♥♥♥

Alas, it's next month now and I have to start anew. T^T

DDD:

Wait now I r lost. Whai you have start anew?

XD ahaha sorry. the word count, i reset it each first of the month.

I'll never reach my word couuunt wahhh. *flopded*

Ohhhh

Whats your word count then?

Cause the most I have ever written was 14,000 words....

*giveslufftoflopdeded-one* One Day! One day you shall! ~~For Konoha!!!~~

i've been lowering my goal each month, which is depressing, but I think 18000 words works well enough for now. I'm probably not gonna reach it, but it's still relatively accessible. I don't want to make the goal too easy or else there'd be no reason to work on it. XD;;; It's better when it's juuuuust out of my reach.

still, so far i've noticed I only get the bigger word counts when I happen to have a ficlet meme going on. *sigh* I guess the words pile up faster when it's a dozen small fics than when it's an important, got-to-write-this-just-right multipart i'm working on... u__u;;

*yayluff T^T* *lufflesback♥* FOR KONOHA! >E *imagines saying it à la SPARTAAAAA... hahaha*

18,000 is still a heck load of words to write, lyk woah, and thats you loweing it? Woah, I'm just amazed.

Well I suppose it depends if you have ficlets PLUS big fic, or ficlets OR big fic. P: but when I has lots of little things going I tend to write better, and consequently all my writing tends to be like little scenes stuck together, when I write like that, things actually get somewhere. Except then I forget my timeline when I am writing the bigger fics. Blaaaah stupid timelines.

*happysqueak* ~~YOU THREATEN MY PEOPLE WITH MOON DEMONS AND BRAINWASHING? MADNESS? THIS! IS! KONOHA!~~

Well, at first I was thinking, hey, NaNo is 50.000 words a month, maybe if I go with half. Buuuuut. yeah. Not happening, not even half a NaNo. Sadness.

I always have ficlet + big fic + shorter fic + sidefic waiting somewhere, so there's always something I should be writing that i'm not. .__.;

haha, you should write your timelines first and leave the file open while you write for quick checking, i guess. like a very detailed one with what changes for X characters so the mindset would blahblah and don't forget X was hurt there at Z point so he's still limping until Y... then again I like to overplan everything and not everyone writes like that. >__> the main question is, does it work for you (more than it doesn't? XD because no system is perfect, i think)

~~... ahahahahaha *DED* you killed me. evil. i ded like aeris. XD~~

D: One day you wiiiiill! And the people will rejoice, and there will be party in the street, and Sasuke and Sakura will actually remember that they have personalities again! (seriously, your story is the only hope I have for decent characterization anymore. Dx)

Ouch, that is lot of fic. lyk woah *needs special sunglasses to behold the sheer woah of fic*

And actually that is a really good idea, normally I just have my head cannon, and given my perchance for writing retarded team 7 Au's, its probably the safe way of going about it.

~~Yessssss, goal accomplished now I can steal-- I MEAN UM. It was Madara's moon demon!~~

... XD;;; #u.u#

I still maintain that no one can characterize better than the original author. Just poor Kishi clumsy when writing about some things that push the boundaries of what he truly wants to be writing about. or something. XD;; and the pressure of world-wide expectations and weekly publishing probably don't help. he doesn't get a lot of time to juggle all possible repercussions before he's got to spit out the next chapter, I don't think. u.u;;;

when i look for a reason to procrastinate i'll list all the things i should be writing. it's kinda scary how fast they pile up. i think my problem is my eyes are bigger than my stomach when it's about what i want to write. XDD

~~DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD;~~

also, bcz i lub you and it just so happen i'm writing sasuke sakura scenething right now~

"Did you see him?" asked Sakura. She stared at the horizon. Her face was still hard, but there was a pinched look at the corner of her eyes which told him that she didn't want to cry, that she might anyway.

She meant Naruto, of course, and of course Sasuke had seen him, and it made him sick, he couldn't stand it. Naruto wasn't allowed to be broken.

"He'll be better when he has things to do," he said, parroting Kakashi and not believing it any more now that he was the one saying it. "He's had nothing to do but brood. He needs to move around."

Sakura didn't even look like she was paying attention. It was a little strange not to have her hanging on his every word.

"If I'd been stronger," she said.

He fell silent. He knew where this one went.

"If I'd been faster. Known more jutsu."

She lifted her chin, eyes glittering with rage and tears.

"If I wasn't so weak, wasn't a toy, wasn't someone you can ignore!"

actually right now i'm writing sakurathings. it's really funny, the dynamic is currently flipped around -- sakura is all completely concetrating on RAAA NO ONE TOUCHES NARUTO and sasuke is all "...oh. sakura being all angry and tired of being weak. *PING*." I'm loving it. XDDDD

retarded team seven AUs you say? :DDDD do share~~~~

o3o

Mmm this is true, I suppose that would be a hard thing when writing a story out like that, you can't really think too much about how things would happen beyond your outcome. Which I suppose explains a lot of things. It would be actually really hard to write like that, oh wow.

I used to do that assignments, then have a minor heart attack... then go back to reading fic.

MOOOOOOOOOONDEMOOOOOOOON~! Iunno, for some reason I see it like Yugioh game, as if its Exodia or something. "AND NOW I DRAW MOON DEMON LEFT LEG, I MEAN FOUR TAILS, COMPLETING THE CYCLE... MOON DEMON... OBLITERATE!"

OOOO: SO GOOD. OMG. THANKYE *absorbs the SasuSakubondingness*

hehehehe. *has really clear image of Sakura rocking in the corner, Sasuke is confused, with a massive *PING* above his head.* likelike massive *ping* liiike

PING

and well there is all sorts of bits, but the really big one I started (and keep trying to write a second chapter to, but it just won't budge... oh and it needs so much more editting, lyk woah)

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4903269/1/The_Saints_Are_Coming
and thiiiis one
http://fonsetorigo.livejournal.com/1175.html#cutid1

theres millions of other bits floating on my harddrive, but nyeeeeh, never did anything with them T^T

I think Kishi had his original idea, but then as you write you realize, "okay he can't stay pure and innocent forevar so we have to add romance... but i hate writing romance i'm not working in shoujo manga for a reason aaaa what do i do, i want to write about boyfriendships shit *forces self to add some here and there because it's just too weird if he doesn't and then quickly pushes it out of the way*" or like "that's maybe not awesome for sakura... AAAA I'M WRITING FOR BOYS AAAA TOO MANY ISSUES TO JUGGLE WITH" (mmm male privilege in japan... but that's another discussion) or plot-related fallout becomes clearer, like "awwww SHIT if i do it like that then of COURSE naruto will go after them right away and there won't be time for X to happen, I need to slow him down -- shit. okay, I don't want him beating up Kakashi and Yamato so, uh. let's have him faint. i mean, it's a sucky situation, that's not completely injustifiable that he would have a panic attack at this point, right?" and stuff like that, or advisors telling him "okay no sasuke isn't being evil ENOUGH so getting him back won't be satisfying enough, you have to make the roadblocks HUUUUGE. like. MOON HUGE. just make it secretly not entirely his fault and even if he has intent don't make him actually succeed at evil things and no one will have a problem with the redemption or find it too little too late!" or maybe "okay konoha getting destroyed was EPIC but, dealing with the aftermath of all that death is just too adult for the manga's target audience so you have to make it all better somehow once you're done. Yes." (i am totally willing to blame that on his assistants and advisor type people. yes. >___> *blind faith*)

I think in between planning the overall plot, planning the contents of each chapter down to panel layout and all that shit, sketching everything and then inking it over, he's been eating and breathing his manga for the last twelve years and of course it has lost in spontaneity and freshness, and the direction and mood have shifted from what it was. That was pretty inevitable, I think. Still sad though, but I don't see how that could have been avoided. T____T

i've had this problem with long fic before, you have SO MANY AWESOME IDEAS, but actually writing them out takes so fucking long and by the time you get there you have already rehashed it a hundred times in your head, and mentally you're wayyyyyy past it and already having the yays over what happens to their grandchildren or something, if you haven't switched fandoms entirely. XD I mean, twelve years on the same story. Whoa.

But anyway.

Sasuke is having "mai waifu" thoughts. hahahaha. XD figures that happens the second Sakura isn't paying attention to him anymore. *roll roll* ohman, i hope it'll come off as IC for everyone because i love it, i'd be heartbroken if it doesn't work. ;^;

OOOOH I remember the Saints fic! yes, I want moar of that one *__* what's stuck with it? wanna try to talk it out? (and haha, i was looking at your lj and read those ficlets like ten minutes ago. but then my brother wanted to talk and distracted me argh. >__> will review later, he's nagging me atm)

I think you are right, its come down 'AAAAH WRITING FOR BOYS/I NEED THE PLOT TO DO THIS/FUCK, PISS OFF, I DON'T WANT TO WRITE ANYMORE NARUTO' (Lulz, I recently went to China, and jah tis not Japan, but similar enough in terms of Gender...) Like I really luff Sasuke and Naruto's friendship, I want moaaaar of it. And Team 7 yes, nom. But basically, I know this is really petty but its the total role reversals, particularly Sakura and kind of Sasuke as well (but his I sort of get). Naruto, thanks to Gaara's sharp verbal slap in the face, seems to be going okay though *clings to Gaara*. I also get the skipping over the after math, cause Kishi's on a time frame and it would make it lag but it was the casual after Pein's been and gone, of "dude I'm getting some ramen" it just left me going "WHY, OF ALL THE THINGS THAT WOULD BE REBUILT FIRST, IT WOULD NOT BE YOUR RAMEN STAND, NARUTO. ARGH. WHY THIS CRUELTY ON LOGIC" *has break down on computer screen*. But mostly the aftermath for me was pretty much summed up in a episode of Naruto The Abridged Series, after Orochimaru and such.

Jiraiya: And now we are going to traverse distant land in search of my great friend and to train you some more.
Naruto: ... but shouldn't we stay and help clean up after the battle?
Jiraiya: Bahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahah! .... you haven't been a main character long have you?

Jaah, I'd really like to see Sasuke sort of slipping into the husband roll, and being sort of confused by it a) sort of mimicking Fugaku, cause he thinks thats what husbands/fathers do is Sasu-brain-land b) Sakura totally not listening and not getting what he is trying to do when it sort of dawns on her.

ehehe thankyeee. Well its kinda, I don't actually know how to resolve-Sakura issue! At all! I thought I did, but I wrote it down and it didn't work, at all. Just nooooo. I've been hitting that rock ever since, but with no good way to resolve it, but having it not resolved feels like chickening out and it would be way way waaay too angsty, and in a certain way I wanted this fic to be kind of lighter? But Sakura is sitting there going 'NO! I will never be okay with this ever! and I won't let you write anything else, not the Itachi bit, not the Naruto-Foxy bit! Nuthin'! Till I am resolved!' (and d'aw reviews would be nice, but pssh tis reaally not necessary. :3 and my mother is complaining at me that I should go to bed, am dutifully ignoring her though~)

You wrote so much for Teamwork this month! Congrats!

I did! *still surprised*

... I think most of it is sidefics or scenes that happen way later, though. XD;;;;

Monthly Word Count - April!
