Tell me I'm going to be able to make some money off my original writing sometime soon if I just keep at it. Tell me your impressions of me so far, or what your favourite fannish thing that I've done has been.

Comments

I'm totally impressed by your tenacity, and how you keep going. And I'm always delighted when you comment on my LoM and PoI ficlets.

You are, indeed, amazing!

[talkingtothesky]

Thank you, Hobbit! Thank you for writing those PoI and LoM ficlets :D Thanks for sticking with me all this time.

I know we don't know each other well but you seem so cool! I am just happy to get the chance to know you.

(And yes, you can make money on original writing if you keep at it. It might not happen soon but it can happen and I will do what I can to support and help out.)

[talkingtothesky]

AND FOR A CHANGE I WONT LOOK LIKE A CREEPY WEIRDO WAXING POETIC ABOUT YOU CAUSE YOU ASKED FOR THIS.

You sky... are an absolute GEM of a person and i am so lucky to have gotten to know you over the past year or so and am honestly kinda envious of all the people who have known you for longer.
Cause you sky, you're as kind as you're brilliant, and as lovely as you amazing, and you write such beautiful stunning stories and AT THE SAME TIME help other people feel so good about themselves too. An amazing writer and an amazing friend all at once. ♥
And i don't know pretty much anyone else who can do this, be so awesomely talented and such a encouraging cheerleader at the same time and that's what makes you SPECIAL.

I...
Sorta looked through your published fics to find a fav of mine (or the first i have read) and it only make me end up wanting to reread them ALL... and not for the first time even. I read your fics on the days i feel sad and cold and want something warm, or on the days when i desperately wanna believe in love, or before sleeping so i sleep with a smile.
I am literally the biggest fangirl you have.... shamelessly!!

And i can't wait till you publish your original writings and become famous and i buy signed copy of your books and show them off to people and be like LOOK ITS MY FRIEND!! Because you will!! The way you can spin original characters and give them personalities and make us CARE for them so quickly... Its only just a matter of time.

SO YEP...
This has become a little out of control omg, but I always look forward to your writing, and always enjoy talking to you, and have complete faith in you absolutely WINNING at life.
Never stop being you. ♥

MUAHAHA MY FAVOURITE CREEPY WEIRDO FANGIRL ♥ ♥ (Who is incredibly warm and talented and supportive in her own right, just saying)

I read your fics on the days i feel sad and cold and want something warm, or on the days when i desperately wanna believe in love, or before sleeping so i sleep with a smile.
Ohhhhhhhhh my. This means....so much. That's what I wanna do. Give people a little refuge made of words.

*HUGS VERY TIGHTLY*

I haven't had things to say about your PoI stuff but I love how much you love things, even if I don't love them myself. YAY JOY! YAY CARING ABOUT STUFF1 YAY Experimenting with expressing oneself! You cannot possibly learn how to express yourself well enough to learn how to make money without practice, and practicing is exactly what one does in lovely places like this. I can't promise money. I can only promise that when you follow your joy, you can find joy.

[talkingtothesky]

Petra! :DDD I am still reading your posts, though I'm being a silly lurker because I don't know things about the things you're into, either. But that's okay. Thank you for this incredible advice, I need to print it out and stick it on my wall or something.

[spikedluv]

I love your post! (Also, it wasn't a challenge last year; last year you had to list three things you like about yourself. o_O We like to switch stuff up sometimes. *g*)

[talkingtothesky]

Thank you!

last year you had to list three things you like about yourself.
Ah, yes, I remember now.

(I like this one better. :D)

[mmouse15]

You are awesome!

[talkingtothesky]

Thank you, kind person! :D Your icon is very lovely and I bet you are too <3

[bardsley]

Thank you for the brilliant suggestion of keeping a gratitude journal. I am glad that fandom has given you so much.

[talkingtothesky]

<3 <3 <3 The comments to this post are going straight in that gratitude journal. :D

[silveradept]

It does happen - you do make money off of your writing. It can seem like it takes forever, but you will end up selling something, and then another thing, and so forth.

[talkingtothesky]

Thank you! <3333 This is something I really need to hear.

[themusecalliope]

*ahem*
You are going to make money off of your original writing soon!! *\o/*
\o\\o//o/

[talkingtothesky]

YAYYYYY. The more you say it, the more I might be able to believe it <333

[st_aurafina]

Insofar as anyone can make money from writing (because the industry seems pretty borked right now) you can definitely do it.

And I'm really glad I got to know you - you make being in POI fandom fun. And welcoming.
