Hi everybodee :D  *waves like a dummy*  How's it goin?

Dorky author here has so many ideas for the summer and I want to talk about them and ask about stuff here. I gotta admit, I really didn't write creatively for a very... VERY long time before I joined up here and now it's like the floodgates have opened again. Because y'all inspire me so much and I keep seeing and hearing music and other stories and things like that which pop these ideas in my head. So I have tons of them on reserve. Mostly ChaeRa, yes, because they're my couple <3 but lots of things which could be other storylines for other characters too.

Right now I've got my three ongoing fics that I am dedicated to. The first, my baby, To Bring You Home, is about halfway through I'd say. I am trying and trying to come up with interesting and creative chapter ideas for it until it gets to the point where I have already visualized (and written out) pretty much the rest of it. I am excited to get there but GOSH it is proving hard for me to take it from the point it's at now and pull it that far >_< I think I just don't like them not being an item and it's making my inner ideator huffy and stubborn. But I'll do it!! I swear! Cause like I said... this one is my baby. *hee*

Consumed is gonna roll right along I think. If you've ever taken a look at this writing workshop (and seriously, DO!!! Even as a fairly experienced writer this was a really good reminder for me as it covers a lot of formal elements essential to good fiction) you might know the difference between a pantser and a planner... I'm one of those who's both. I write by the seat of my pants a lot, but Consumed is all planned. Just needs writing. And if it's killing you guys right now, just hang on! It's always darkest before the dawn, yknow? I'm actually super happy with the response as mean as that sounds, because if it's making you emotional I'm doin something right :3

And last but not least The Forgetting Field... is one I'm SO excited about because the storyline's so dramatically different and gonna be less based on ships/romance and more on some serious character development and strong themes, there'll be elements of fantasy, gritty realism, culture clash, friendship and coming of age... and Minji/Hannah's 1st person narrative style is so so fun to write that I can get comfortable doing it really easily. But it's the story that has the least response of the three now!!! For subscribers/readers who follow me for ChaeRa ships, PLEASE GIVE IT A CHANCE!! I swear I'll do my best to make it worth the fact that it's not your favorite couple :P Dara's character and Chae/Faith's character and their relationship are both gonna be really interesting too!

After these three, I have another idea forming very slowly in my head for another ongoing fic. It will be different and new and I hope pretty cool (and not angsty! At least not nearly as much as some others...). ChaeRa again, but not in as much of a romantic sense per se. That one will show up perhaps sometime this summer, after I've made significant progress with the others. And a bunch of one-shots are sure to come. The next one after I finally finish writing the Very Merry Unweekend spinoff one is going to be crazy and funny. I'm also inclined to branch into horror or psychological stories, and maybe a bit of fantasy. Jeez, I just want to try everything. I'll write as much as I can!

My goal for the summer, until school gets back in in mid-August, is to update my ongoing stories at least one chapter a week. Meaning, one chapter for one of them, not one chapter per, because I'm working almost full time and not a crazy fast writer who can do 30 pages a week easily and still have time for life (sorry dudes T_T) But you can hold me to that once a week update. Which one it will be each week depends on my mood and inspiration (that's the pantser in me, lol). And in between those, I will make more one-shots as they surface.

So here's where I would like some input from those of you who have been reading... which stories are you most excited about? Which parts of what I've written so far have really stood out or made an impact/impression on you as a reader? What do you like and not like about how I write or what I write? And what kind of stories or styles would you like to see from me in the future? Challenge me!!! Be honest! Be brutal!! I really want to know because I want to keep improving my writing abilities and any suggestions really have the power to inspire me and generate new ideas. I'm so thankful that in the few months I've been here I've gotten the inspiration to keep writing from you all and read some amazing stories from fellow authors! Thank you so much for that :)

Oh, and... because I have to say it...

CONGRATULATIONS CL-ROO!!! I AM CHEERING SO HARD FOR YOUR SOLO DEBUT FROM OVER HERE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BIG POND!!!! *Muah* Can't freakin wait!!!

よろしくお願いします and 잘 부탁드립니다 and all that!

Till next time :3
