  1. most of the one piece I have seen has been the english dub. I gotta say I love Luffy's crazy laugh and Sanji's NY/NJ accent kills me. "Youz guyz betta watch yerself"
  2. umm..... what up brudda? I have the first couple sub chapters of The Scarlet Field of Can'-Ka No Rey done. I still have a few scenes to do; miscelanious things and the showdown and whatnot. I've been bizy the past few days and will prolly be tied up till Mondayish, but I'll see how much I can get done in the evenings (10 to 2). you make it sound like I'm writing porn. there wouldnt even be love scenes if it wasnt important to the story. Misha's virtue and Sessy's tude about mortals undergo changes withen the story. Keh! can you say the plot thickens? I know you could >.< Maggie... you just love to be difficult dun joo I figured if this story takes place a year after the end of Inuyasha, by now Sessy is more or less daddy to Rin. Their relationship should be close and he should be able to understand Rin by now no problemo. I wanted to emphasise that in the story - Rin is the reason I wrote the turd anyway. I tormented sledge for a couple days or so running up behind him and goin "Misha mama!" to depress his ass. I didnt have the rescue written yet and got bizy for about 2 days... so poor Misha stayed in peril until I had time to get to her As far as the characters go, I couldnt have just any flooze off the street hook up with Sessy's tet so Misha had to be the "Keh! It figures if you were gonna have some woman around for the kid she’d just have to be some gorgeous, exotic, untouchable, virgin that worships the ground you walk on!" first of all she has to be pretty- no busted bitches allowed , she has to be different then any mortal Sessy has seen before thus she is not Asian, and her worship keeps her pure and untouchable- we always want what we can't have. She also loves Rin with all her heart and would do anything for her, even die. She also must be a teacher to the kid, Sessy doesnt need a babysitter, he's already got Jaken filling that duty call it pre-requsites for bein Sessy's traveling companion or woman or whatever. The hardest part about writing Misha is that she's so damn demure. Most chicks in my stories will kill you just as soon as look at you. but I couldn't add some viscious bitch to Sessy's tet, that shit wouldnt fly with him and I was tryin to keep it real G. The bad guys are pretty garden variety. I had to have at least one completely nutzed up bastard- Odoku, a pissy bastard- Tomei, and Azuki is the oppisite of Sessy so... I read and watch a lotta twisted up scarry violent shit so bad guys and monsters kinda come natural to me Their actions had to be vile enough for Sessy to want to just straight up kill the bitches. They also couldn't be the guy that dies in just 1 episode, there has to be a challange to the hunt and kill on both sides. So I made em pretty tuff. Kingisms... like I can keep em out of my writing right? Keh! I've had Dark Tower on the brain a lot recently too so they slipped in. It was easier for me to contain the story by identifing parts with the familiar. Drawing- the drawing of the 3, Misha is the 3rd to come into the tet. char-u tree death for you life for my crop. Misha's death meant a new life for Rin, all of them really. Dan-dhin- Sessy establishes himself as the dhin figure in a couple of ways; setting boundraies, the gift of the new kimono, and then saving her from bad guys. Ves'Ka Gan is when shit starts to go wrong. Ka like the wind starts to blow and the characters find themselves dealing w/ shit outta their control. Thunderclap-bad shit goes down. Empathica-worse shit goes down. Derry Interlude- like in It this part of the story doesnt really move the plot forward persay, but it feeds us info/ideas/feelings of the characters. Fedic: Two Views- we see the results of ka on Sessy and Misha. through the story we are seeing Sesshomaru (and Misha too a little) progress and change. I wrote the story for Rin cuz I wanted her to have parents damnit but the story is really about Sesshomaru. his growth and development as a sentiant being and his fathers son. Son's are always trying to superceedethe father, why the hell should Sessy be any different? hell- he woulda cut his old man up for his swords. he wanted to fight him when he was most powerfull and defete him so...
  3. yer such a slob sledge writing from Rin's pov is fun. She's uber cute. I liked where Sesshomaru rips Odoku's arm off and tells him his head is next yeah... romantic scenes arent really my strong suit. my idea of a love story falls somewhere between Berserk and Miaka (Fushigi Yuugi) rubbin the filth off herself with a stick 'still not clean!'

    A Quick question

    I dunno about a graph... Shinto Bhuudist and later Christianity
  5. Sure, Sesshomaru is easy when he's just being himself.. it gets harder when I start controling his actions tho Ves'Ka Gan Ka like the Wind http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Ka%20like%20the%20wind3.doc Thunderclap http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Thunderclap.doc Empathica http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Empathica.doc Interlude Derry and Fedic http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Derry%20Interlude.doc

Drawing Rin Makes a Friend http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Drawing.doc Death and Re-birth: char-u tree http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Char-u%20Tree.doc Dan-dhin http://www.windscar.com/fanfiction/doc/Dan-dhin3.doc that should be enough to get anyone interested started.

    A Quick question

    As a horor reader, I look forward to yer story Sabe
  10. no shitz I didnt know Ussop made the flag and painted the sail ^_______^ kool
  11. ac has been hosted by Ancient Clan Hosting for years now it used to be on the crack rino server... before vb it was phpbb and before that it was ubb ps. can I kill some bad guys??????
  12. The easy part about working with someone else's character is that they are already defined and you are familiar with the way they think, act and speak. The hard part is minipulating the character to do what you want them to do w/o throwing them so far out of their frame that it seems fake or forced for them to ac/speak/think the way you want.
  13. I'll have to look for that book Jilly:) I sho do read enuff laws yes! <- note the incoherient chelle speak I did break the part I'm working on up into 2 chapters titles today. Ves'Ka Gan will have pt 1 Thunderclap and then pt 2 Empathica. Of course these titles have absolutely nothing to do with Inuyasha or anime, but they mean something to me and are making it easier to keep this story corraled. I'll probably have to change em once I get the story together. Sesshomaru is interisting to work with tho its not always easy crawling around inside his stubborn head.
  14. they started quite a while ago feeding kids one episode a week the crummy bastards >.<
  15. it should be coming up soon (getting Sanji) right?
  16. Movie 5 is the best one, my favorite so far
  17. I read Fedic's stuff, it doesnt hurt my head like some of the crap you mentioned... Gangsta Ash... nope just cant picture it
  18. no, this doesnt really have anything to do with some guy named Harold, this is about writing Many years ago my favorite writer got stuck writing one of my favorite books. Poor Steve was beside himself, thinking that The Stand was going to end up in the proverbial "fuck it" pile unfinished and forgotten. Thankfully the idea came to him of how to fix this story so that it was back under his control and could he was free to finish the piece. Harold Lauder put a bomb in the closet and let it blow durring a Free Zone Committe meeting, killing and maiming and applying the breaks to Boulder's techno progress. (If you haven't read The Stand let me assure you that the bomb was right on for the story) Steve recounts his trial in On Writing and it just so happens that I read that chunk of narration a little over a week ago. I have been taking a break from a longer piece I have been working on (yep it will probably end up in the "fuck it" pile) I'm a little stuck, but its more of a being put on the spot feeling. I know how the story is supposed to move and what comes next, but I've let myself get bogged down in syntax and suffixes and... If you write you know what I mean. It's the english teacher part of your brain screaming at you, "What do you think you're doing putting a semi colen there! or This narration is awful! Nobody can understand this but you!" Word's spell check likes to remind me that I spell very crapily (oooh how ya like that made up word) my puncuation is unconventional, I use tons of fragmented sentances, run on sentances, and I am constantly adding new words (names or places or phrases in another lang) Lucky me I also have the 'the therapist' part of my brain constantly critiking my work looking for themes and deeper meaning and shit I was stuck in the way of thinking that everything I was writeing had to be fan-fucking-tastic. It had to be coherent and fluid, it must absolutely envoke an emotional response from the reader... in other words PERFECT. Finally the pressure I put on myself to be 'most excellent' made me walk away from the story. The garden was the perfect excuse, it keeps me very bizy in spring, but I didnt need to sit there and play Windwaker 2x in a row... Honestly its been over 2 months since I even touched the damn thing. Last week I took On Writing with me when I had to wait fer sledge at the dentist. It’s been a few months since I have read any King, mostly its been manga; the last novel I read was The Lost World. I had just finished that so I brought On Writing with me. I read through the part where he talks about The Stand it tweeked my brain a little. The next discussion in the book is about writing drafts, several of them actually. I used to write 3ish drafts for a long piece, but always at least 2. Even though Word hates me, its every bit my slave too. It ate up any need for multiple drafts. Multiple drafts clutter up my folders and make a mess. While I was out working in the garden I was thinking about how I wanted to get it done so I could just enjoy it this year. I want to take Wolves of the Calla out there and when I'm done with that probably Song. I dunno if I'm going to re read TDT this summer, I'm still hurtin over my dudes I thought back to what Steve said about the bomb idea coming to him. He gets a lot of his ideas on the walks that he takes, I just let my mind wander when I'm out in the garden, similar I guess. I kept thinking about the last book in the tower series, Jake and Roland mostly and what Steve said about the bomb.The bomb had simplified the story back to its core, the bomb took out one of my dudes I really liked too. Ka like the wind and there was nothin I can do for my dudes except tell others to read their story. I would never write King fan fic, I have enough trouble keeping his other worlds then these vocabulary outta my crap as it is. I was thinking about what he said about drafts too. I used to lug around the "500 pound briefcase" full of drafts in longhand, typed up and attacked with pen, neat copies that eventually I'd surrender to Pat and Mark and then never see again. I thought about what he said about the way he does his first draft and how he writes shorter stuff between big stories like the The Stand. It kinda dawned on me that I didn't need to blow up the story I have taken a va-ca from, I just need to blow up my method. Going back to the story now wouldnt do any good, I'd just be chewing the keyboard again. Well shit that means that I have to write something different, but what? So I figured why not try to write something for Windscar, kill 2 birds with one stone. I'm a slave to Word and the sites anyway, why not do both at once. I'm a real asshole when it comes to my writing. Aside from the "it must be perfect" hangup, I just cant resist complex characters. I get a real kick outta taking a character and while keeping them ic by the end of the story they're a changed dude. My shit has a way of becoming enormous and thus unfinished too. Seeing as how I dont want to spend all summer on a fan fic, I would much rather be outside, I had to establish the boundaries with the story early on. I decided to try writing a first draft straight through w/o stopping and revising like a slave. Just write and keep writing till its done. The first .doc was a babble of chelle speak breaking the story up into chapters, defining the characters, notes or comments that would leave other people going "What the fuck does this mean?" I must admit that writing as shitty-crazy as you want is pretty fun. I chose to write about Sesshomaru, he was sort of difficult at first, but there is something so Roland about him and I know Roland Deschain better then I know my own family I have got 5 (of 7) chapters done in less then a week, printed some of the first draft and attacked it with the red pen, but I'm not revising the story 'till its done. It's kinda hard to do, but it feels pretty good to know at least something is getting done and it even looks like I'll finish it *clutch heart and scream "I'm coming to join you Elizabeth!" or not if you've never seen an episode of Sanford and Son *
  19. I could keep myself very bizy catchin on up all the One Piece I just love Luffy, Roland would approve
  20. I've never had a peek at the dub.... guess I just gotta wait to see if they mangle it (like Inu Yasha seson 5 >.< )
  21. shit girl, why not? you can always go back later and fill in the story. What matters is that you are writing productively I gave up on writing for my fans a long time ago. I write for pratice and for myself and if someone else is able to enjoy it thats just a bonus. When yer writing to appease other people it sucks the fun (and often the creativity) out of what you're doing. Thats one of those A#1 causes of writers block, trying to please all of the people all of the time.
  22. CN hates us. *Us being their anime audience.* I'm sure they have total belife that the world should revolve around Futurama repeats. The US opening song cracks me up yo ho ho he took a bite of gumgum Its catchy and ez for kids to sing along
