Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/02/14 ~ Reactivated

Ah well, we'll just have to look up your profile on Alexstrasza and see if you got any epic drops recently to know you're still alive :-) (650 - not bad) That's not actually my main, though... my main is Potpourri, on the same server - Alexstrasza - a human female rogue with an ilvl of 683 as of th...

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/02/14 ~ Reactivated

I don't like posting on this thread because it gets hopes up (people see I posted, click expecting updates, and are then crestfallen when there's nothing of the sort). Yes, I know, it hasn't been updated in over a year. No, it's not abandoned. Shit happens. Once I have the time to set aside, I've go...

Re: Yuletide Yamaku - The Yamaku Reader Story (Updated Dec 1

Okay, so... here's what happens when I set dates... I end up coming down with the flu and shying away from monitors for a few days, as they just made the headache worse. Back on track to have the last chapter out for New Years, though. *knock on wood* Special note: Claritin should be in the pantheon...

Re: Hisao and Akira(?!): Walla Walla Bing Bang 10/31 Finale!

I really haven't got anything to contribute to this that I haven't already said, but, since this story actually occurs sometime around Christmas - despite being a Halloween tale - I felt it deserved a bump for the holidays. It's kinda like The Nightmare Before Christmas, except without the musical n...

Chapter 6: A Midwinter Day's Nightmare (Part 2)

From behind her, Hanako heard the bespectacled playwright exclaim, “Here goes nothin', man!” Surmising from the nearby shadowy figure in argyle that Setou was talking to Hisao, she listened as he continued, “If I don't come back, make sure my remains are cremated, stored in a vacuum-sealed container...

Chapter 6: A Midwinter Day's Nightmare (Part 1)

Well, here it is Christmas time again. Last year I gave myself 4 days to write a Holiday story. Turns out that wasn't enough time. This time, I've given myself a little over a week to flesh out the last chapters, which is still in progress, but coming along nicely. The last chapter should be ready ...

Re: Tips for fanfiction writers (that means YOU)

If you update your story in episodes, chapters, etc. where it can take some time between each release, before you release a new chapter, re-read the previous two and the new one all in one chunk as part of your proofreading. This will also help you write in general; past around 10k words you lose t...

Re: Hisao and Akira(?!): Walla Walla Bing Bang 10/31 Finale!

Hoitash did all the work. All I did was give him a little push. In all honesty, I prefer this one over the other two Halloween capers since it has something to lose; you realize throughout that there's a house full of their family who're doomed if they fail. From the beginning we are forced to reali...

awkward four-legged gate unnaturally fast
Gait* missed that one, sorry.

There's a few other hiccups that could have been ironed out with a second pass, but it's still passable. I give it a B+.

Incidentally, that's what they'd call the theatrical release - a B movie. :lol:

I'll stop now...

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/02/14 ~ Reactivated

Put simply, yes, it's still in progress. Nobody wants to see it finished more than me.

That said, I've come across the Great Wall of China in terms of writer's blocks. That plus life and more than a little writer's fatigue has resulted in a rather long break between chapter publications.

Re: Tomorrow's Doom ~ Up: 04/02/14 ~ Reactivated

It is my hope to bring a little doom into everyone's tomorrows, if I can. Perhaps that means I have something in common with the vilest of despots and tyrants in history, but I think I'm okay with that.

Frequent Flier miles. Oh god. Rampaging werewolves? This...oh deer lord I have no idea what to think about this! I do like to keep my audience guessing.

Re: Hisao and Akira(?!): Walla Walla Bing Bang Updated 10/3

I'd just like to mention that I bear no blame for the potential cultural inaccuracies of this story, previously or henceforth, and that all such references are the responsibility of the author, that being Hoitash, rather than his sleep-deprived editor. Also, who's to say that by 2020 there won't hav...
