My boyfriend wants me to start writing again. Said it's a waste of talent for me to be expending it all on essays. So...

blegh.

I probably won't be writing with other people...yet...Pissing off more Althanians isn't on my to-do list anymore.

and I might not be writing at all...

maybe...

I have a lot of university classes and homework and very little access to computers, internet, and free time. Such things are commodities sold to the highest and smartest bidder, of which I am neither.

Aww, poor you.

You don't have to write for us, you know. And essays are, to me, fairly boring in comparison to creative writing.

How about this: Enter the NaNoWriMo and see where that takes you. You can come back to Althanas any time you want. We'll still be here waiting for your return, Nya~ ^_^

Not looking for sympathy.

I also don't know what that is. Nanowrimo?? I searched for it and came up with way lots of seemingly unrelated stuff.

Hell...I don't know why I posted this.

Felt like it's a step towards ACTUALLY writing again...maybe.

Getting over that fear of writing, hah. Cause I know I'm not a great writer...now I just have to ignore that fact and come up with things anyways and pretend to be good so that I can be satisfied with my work. Self-esteem-lacking and pathetic, yes, I know, but I don't know any other way.

I gotta get better somehow.

You know NaNoWriMo, it's national writing month contest, thing.

Glad you came back. Or, well, somewhat back.

NaNoWriMo is the National Novel Writing Month. It's meant as an incentive for writers, professional or no, to write a novel as quickly as possible, and often serves at least as a starting point for larger projects. In order to succeed, one must write a novel of at least 50,000 words, a great feat in and of itself. Quantity over quality is reviewed in determining success, though a good book would be better than a long one.

Well, you'll get there one day or another with enough writing, Nya~

And if you want to go to the main site, it's NaNoWriMo (www.nanowrimo.org). Besides, you don't need to be a great writer to have fun writing, Nya~! :D

*Is not a good writer himself*

*sucks balls at writing*

Anyways, its nice to see you back actually. I missed your wacky character. Oh, btw Ravenok is gone, sorry to say, and is now rping as Rok the Blade, Stuffed Fury, and a dozen other aliases.

He'll be glad to see you back though.

Ohh, welcome back!

*gives you lots of sympathy only because you didn't ask for it*

Aww, you poor baby. Do you need help with that? Is there anything I can do? Do you need a hug? :p
