A little something-something...

Yo.

Just thought I'd drop in, make a new entry...(this is also slightly edited and copied on my new blog...)

First and foremost, if you don't know, I'm currently using my new blog over here (don't worry about the warning, I'll make use of it eventually...). I'm also using my Tumblr every now and then, when I actually have something to upload...and, ah...so here's what's been going on...

Nothing's changed, I'm afraid, when it comes to how my life's been. Still drifting in this existence...but I don't want this entry to be about that.

I want to focus on...my projects. I've been saying this, to myself, for years, now. Somehow I'd like to make true to what I'm saying, this time. But I need help.

I read somewhere about the power of feedback. It's a powerful thing, feedback. And in my case...it is greatly needed. It may just be the lifeblood of my stories, my ideas...but I don't know for sure, considering I don't have...an audience. Here at home, I have no one to show my stories to. The stories I write, the ideas I have...they're not for the faint of heart. And I do mean that. I write about taboo, about gore and vore, fetishes and more...No one here wants to know of that shit. Hell no. Don't get me started on pedophilia, ephebophilia, and hebephilia. Oh, no, no no.....

So I've been contemplating on something.

Since...quite literally, I don't have any stories to show...save a few old fanfiction I'm not so proud of or newer fanfiction I don't like at all...I've been thinking of sharing...information. Obviously, this would relate to my stories. Maybe even my projects. I don't know...

It's an idea.

The only thing I'm worried about is...well...having my things safe from plagiarizers and such. It's the internet world. Anyone could just take something and no one would be the wiser. Worst yet, it's literature. Words. Easily stolen and twisted and...vulnerable. If I could only be assured my things were copy righted...My ideas...they're all I have and are very precious to me. At the same time, I'm desperate for an audience. Seriously. I'm desperate, here.

...Any suggestions? Insight? Help, maybe? Please...?

Echo post: sharing some stories

Lo.

I like the general idea of "showcasing" stories and gaining an audience, in our case, by what we already have instead of an actual story. In fact, it would likely be best for Mary and I work on things that aren't as easy to steal from, or things that are more like fanfiction. This means the Tales, of course. However, we are going to keep the fine details out of the descriptions and authors' notes, such as the connections to PHE...

...I will say this much, though. I don't trust you people; you, the internet world. Not in the slightest. There are bastards out there, the type of bastards I despise...Thieves. Plagiarizers. That is the last thing Mary and I need right now. It's bad enough of the things we've shared about Project DV. In fact...I fear that we've already set ourselves up for a shitload of  plagiarizing...

How in the world does one protect their ideas and stories in the online world? 

Continue reading if you want to read my personal rant directed at my dear counterpart...

There are times when I wonder why Mary can't think things through before making entries like her most recent one...

So I shall lay it out for you, Mae.

The Prose Division exists for a reason, doesn't it? There are at least three locations for it online:

• LiveJournal as a community
• deviantART, no longer as a group, but there is our lovely old UnseenARTS
• FictionPress

And this is just for starters.

Are you seriously thinking of making yet another pointless online account when you haven't even utilized the ones we already have? 

If it were necessary to create another Tumblr, it would likely be for Project DV-related works, which covers all of anything we plan to work on in the future as it is. Am I not right?

I want to share some stories...

Yo. So I'm thinking of making either a Tumblr or Facebook account for my original...ideas. I know that sounds strange. Why the hell would you do that, Mae? Your ideas could be stolen. Not to mention how strange it is to have all of the developmental stages of your pride and glory out for alll the world to see. That stuff is normally kept hidden and (secret, safe) away from all prying eyes until, perhaps, after the work is actually complete.

I know. The only reason why this has even entered my mind is because of the age of technology we live in. Otherwise, I'd probably be perfectly content with keeping all of my little secrets and such to myself.

Or maybe...not.

You see, I'm a writer. I am. Author. Artist. Dreamer. Et cetera. But I have nothing to show for my years of writing. Nothing...concrete, that is. I have other things. Information documents, chronicles of the many years or days or weeks or months or however long I've worked at my stories with no avail. Character profiles, character information...Things like that. I'm proud of those, yes, but they'll never counter my disappointment of being unable to complete a story and the world my characters can thrive in.

...I also desire to gain some interest in my stories and ideas, since...that's not really possible otherwise. I don't write stories I can actually show to anyone...except maybe one or two people...

I'm curious. And starving for an audience. That is my fuel. An audience.

So...what's the consensus?

In other news, I have my Tumblr as well...

I'm into Steam Powered Giraffe. Hilarious band, I tell you. Nice mental imagery. Casual, calm, and fun to listen to during the day. Listened to them practically all day yesterday and the day before while cleaning my room.

Also two new decks.

And...Digi's Splendorman.

Fuck yeah.

Also...Happy World Goth Day.
