Z.N. Singer : And that's just the action climax. Soon enough I'll be writing the emotional one...oh, it gives me the shivers.
Z.N. Singer : I've reached. I've reached. I've really reached the scene! I can hardly believe it - I've really made it, I'm really there.
Z.N. Singer : Call anytime, I finally get to fast at home, no work.
Z.N. Singer : I'm assuming this is not your first day - unless you suffered a colossal failure of foresight.
lord perrin : hey zach, in Israel, might call, a bit lazy.
Z.N. Singer : Such a brilliant setting, in the hands of someone without corresponding storytelling talent. I'm constantly tempted to review but I know I'd end up saying something mean. I'll leave him alone, he's gotten a lot of fans for it.
Z.N. Singer : 'Mizukage' fanfic haunts me as an example.
Z.N. Singer : The tragedy of a truly brilliant setup in the hands of someone with no grasp of grammar is unspeakable. That
Z.N. Singer : SHOW DON'T TELL...ah, forget it. This person claims to collect the true best in his favorites list but...uh uh. I'm not getting anything this way.
Z.N. Singer : How have these people gone so long without learning about little subtleties like punctuation?
Z.N. Singer : Which eliminates at least forty percent of all entries on FF
Z.N. Singer : I swear, any story whose summary starts 'what if' is guaranteed to have no skill in it.
Z.N. Singer : Run on sentences galore. Show don't tell, your narrative sounds like a freakin' list or something.
Z.N. Singer : Scanning fanfics for new additions to the collection for the first time in a while. Oh yes, *that's* why I keep avoiding it. Oh for heavens sake, dont' SAY flashback when you're having one! If you can't make a natural transition then please just go and try your hand at basketball or something.
Z.N. Singer : Chapter Eighteen is UP.
Z.N. Singer : Unless I was to finally post something that didn't quite meet my own standards. But there's no way I'd start doing that now.
Z.N. Singer : So close. At last. Just a little farther, and I'll have finally gotten this part done right, and chapter eighteen's long overdue debut will come. I apologize, though it could not be helped and was not my fault.
Z.N. Singer : Yes - GOT IT. Finally got it - the scene and sentiments finally delivered convincingly. Whew.
Z.N. Singer : A little too late I see ^_^. Well, I'm glad you came here, I really hate FF's formatting. Make a comment or two - they're open to all! A particular scene in eighteen proved very hard to get right and has delayed things considerably but I hope to put it up - today. Fingers crossed.
Z.N. Singer : I'm so used to no posts here, I must not have noticed it earlier.
Z.N. Singer : Heh. First person routed from FF to show up on the box. Nice.
catherrick : K. You shower. Me smoke. You Tarzan. Me Jane. Wait, that's all wrong. Seriously, thanks for babbling with me an cheering me up. Have a good night.
Z.N. Singer : Oop. So, no italics. Sometime I'll try and find a cb that does support it.
catherrick : Sorry. I'm full of wrong humor.
catherrick : Or was it the smoke thing? I'm really, really, going to go suck in some carcinogens so as to promote an early end to life?
Z.N. Singer : (wrong humor Cat)
Z.N. Singer : I mean, REALLY really differently. Like, SHUT UP! (no not really, they're more polite than that)
catherrick : Um, okay, I'll try. Thanks, Z, for being somebody else?
Z.N. Singer : Gosh, most people put it really differently.
catherrick : Really, really going to smoke now. Thanks, Z, for being you.
