[Update] Ch. 12 -- UP AND READY TO GOOOOOOO!!!
READ and REVIEW the update, plz!!!
Just finished chapter 12! I hope you guys enjoy it because there's LOTS of you and Kaiba interaction. It'll prolly be a quick read because this chapter was like "WHOA" with dialogue, so that's why it took me so long -- I couldn't just put anything down for Kaiba's character because you have to write it in such a way that you could possibly discern motivation out of the way he says things, but you're not really sure! In any case, I has one more midterm to go and then I'll be free to do more fic-planning and work!

10/24/09: It's been a while since I've updated you guys on my life, and just why it's taken SO F'ING LONG for me to post and stuff, so, I believe you guys deserve an explanation, because, since I still want to author the Points fic and have told you guys this, you need to know why it's been taking me so long.
In May, I moved away from home, got my own place, still work at Wal-Mart (UGH!), and am currently enrolled in a Community Counseling masters program. Beyond that (which keeps me busy enough) I've had some seriously bad times with the apartment place I'm at, and long-story-short, I'm unable to get out of the apartment, currently, and I have some wonderful friends letting me stay with them instead, but I still have to pay for the other place. >.<####
Also, among this, I can't decide whether I want to ultimately go to a counseling psychology program or a clinical psychology program -- and this is really important to me because I certainly use career as a way to ultimately define myself, ya know? It's a big part of what makes me, "me".
In any case, that's the gist of it. Putting in any more details would be silly, especially since most of this isn't really bothering to the point of a mental breakdown, currently.
In the fanfic world, I don't think I could ever give up on Points. ^_^. I have to admit though, I have been wanting to take it in a different direction than what I initially intended but I haven't come up with a good way to do it yet. It's actually the climax and ending of the first "book" (the one I'm currently writing). There's lots of ways to do it. I'm just really tired of writing duels in; it was cool at first, and I know I do them well, but my forte' is character interaction through dialogue and stuff, so I'd love to show you guys that or more actual action (like fight scenes or something). I guess I'll just need to go with something and hope it's good for you guys. ^_~
Site-wise, I've been considering going around and collecting my favorite fanfics to host/archive on here because I think it would be cool to have a lot of REALLY WELL MADE fanfiction in one place, and taking requests. I would have to approve them, and I'm picky, sooo...there's you're warning if you want to request.
Another thing I've been thinking about doing is some short-story fanfics for other anime that I love/like, like FMA(manga/Brotherhood anime), and Bleach (because there really SHOULD be more "just character interaction in everyday, human world settings"). That's the plan, anyway. We'll see how it goes with my crazy life.

Some important things to know about my stories/quizzes/fics/thingies:I don't like those "__(y/n)__, __(y/hc)__, __(y/ec)__, etc." things in the second person pov (also known as CYOA, reader-inserts, "you" stories, etc.) because I feel they take away from the flow of the story. I'm not saying you should stop or that they're bad or anything like that, because some ppl write them in well, but just be aware of my reasoning for why I do my stories the way I do them.
I prefer to choose names for my readers, and I merely suggest how you look because if it's you, then you should assume that it's you who you look like when inserting yourself into the story, ne?
