I could claim to be an alchemist, digidestined, hanyou, pokemon trainer, shaman, time traveler, and so on, but that would be an extraordinary fabrication of reality. The somewhat less spectacular truth is that I am an aspiring writer and also a fan of anime, philosophy, science fact and science fiction which might have contributed to the previous statement. That's probably the most straightforward explanation I can give about myself.

The Inevitability of Distractions

Wed Oct 28, 2009, 2:23 PM
Over the weekend I decided it might be a good idea to take a break from writing fanfics this week so that I can recharge my creative energies for NaNoWriMo. Inevitably all I've wanted to do since I made that decision is speculate about some of the finer points of certain fandoms are write about them. I have plenty of perfectly good video games that I haven't beaten yet to keep me busy, but a lot of the time I find myself unable to concentrate on them because of the numerous ideas that keep popping inside my head. At the rate I'm going I'll probably end up writing another one shot before the week is through. I don't usually mind that my imagination tends to work overtime, but this was supposed to be a self-imposed vacation.

I'm going to blame the Shaman King fandom for this. I keep finding way too many interesting things to think about. It's gotten almost as bad as letting me speculate about the significance of the Dark Ocean. I'm just going to pretend I haven't been working on a Shaman King & Digimon crossover to go along with that tangent.

Thinking really is a most dangerous pastime indeed.

Erm, uh, I hope you don't mind that I kinda.... made you a character in a story I've been working on. I- uh, just wanted to ask you before I got too far into it. I can let you read it before I do anything else to it if you'd like? If it helps you, Panda-kun and Catsui-sama are in it too.

As an advocate of multiverse theory I don't really mind what strange alternate realities my persona manages to wander into although it certainly is nice to know that it's going to happen in advance. Just keep in mind that in some circles using me for a plot device is considered cheating.

o_o Oh no. Cheating? How? So I'm a plagerisor? Oh no oh no I don't want to be a thief of arty things. I, I'm sorry. Plot device... you are pretty important in it... but... wah... what do I do? I didn't mean to be a cheater.

Relax. It has nothing to do with plagiarism. It's more like using cheat codes to make a game easier. You've got to be careful about what other glitches (or plot holes) crop up when you do. I think you'll find that characters based on me have a way of taking on a life of their own.

Oh. I am sorry. I didn't mean to squibble all over. Cheat codes? I is confoosed...
So far what I've written seems to... well it fits so nicely with the story and I know nothing is overly powerful. When I write a section with certain characters I tend to just let that mindset take control of my pencil and write away. Often times I end up writing things I don't understand and Rida-sama tells me not to worry about it.
Forgive me if nothing I say is making scense. I tend to ramble. Gah! I hate English! Spelling is SO much harder now. >.<
