Ambition makes you look pretty ugly. Kickin squealin gucci little piggy.
I wrote a 5,000+ word story last night. I thought it turned out good, but wasn't good in other parts.
It seemed the piece developed into whatever it wanted; having read a bit of Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, parts of that influenced the piece in varying ways; also, other things, biographical things as well as things that are a part of me.
It's like that with any piece I'd like to think, though.
I'm sort of hesitant to post it, but I guess I'll post it nonetheless. Maybe when I get home, if my mom's not there, or she will let me on (she said she would let me on since I have two report-speeches to do by Tuesday, which is when I go back to school since Monday is off this weekend). I should post it sometime this weekend, or today, at least.
I also wrote part II of "Martha." I get the feeling it wasn't written as well as the first part--part I--of "Martha." This is because when I wrote Martha's first part, I was in a mood that just worked so well with what was going on with Martha. But I'll post that too. So all-in-all, that's about 7,000 words of stuff right there; the 5,000+ of the first piece I mentioned (which I haven't thought of a name for yet; I'm thinking something like "Machine Pig" or "Machine of Pig" or something like that. We'll see) and then there's the second part of Martha--just a bit over 2,000 words. That's about 7,000 or more words. So I can post back in my Random Story Thread.
Hm. But I wonder. OB's going to be down this weekend, according to the announcement. And I'm wondering if there will even be a writing forum in the new version? James had mentioned there might not be offhand to me once, I think. I'm not sure.
I hope there still is, though. But if there isn't, that's fine.
The title is from "Paranoid Android," by Radiohead. I love Radiohead. Enough said there, I think.
I have to go--time for Chemistry again. Woohoo...
