Hi guys! How are you? I kinda hyper-tired right now. Sleep deprivation psychosis... ^_^ Anyways, I got some good and bad news, and then random stuff, and then a BIIIG favor I need you guys to do for me.
First: some bad news. One snake43 is also removed. I believe that to be my friend, that you should come visit me when you can, if I come visit you. That's why I have the rule placed (you know it or you don't, but I'm not saying is so some smacktard can come thinking I'm some fool). I am deeply sadened about people I visit alot, but never come to visit me. But thank-you to all of you to do. It's greatly appreciated ^_^
Second, the launch of my other account The Renaissance is being postponed ('cause I was going to start putting up links now right about this time). This is because of a couple of reasons. I won't lie and say that it's not because I haven't wrote anything, because it's partially true. But the other part is so much cooler, it's going to have a really nice layout. I will not have an obvious theme to a particular anime or manga since I want it to be a site that promoted "open-minds" and I feel that having a background to only specific anime promotes "closed-mindedness" and "favoritism" which should be avoided in writing. (When I say favorite, I don't mean that there shouldn't be main character and such). But you get my point. But it's going to be really awesome, and once I've got a layout for that, I'm going to make a new layout for this one, or at least until the background that's in production is done (which I just had the smack of insight, which I will explain later). Unfortunately, though, learning how to do layouts is kinda confusing. The worst that would happen is that I can't figure it out and have to wait until next year when I take a web design class.
On a better note, though, is that the compy is working again. Unfortunately, many, many things were lost in translation (or transferring ^_^) of hardrives. The good news of that? I've recovered the YYH quiz document. Though, back to the bad news, all documents regarding my book were lost as well as 80% of my music. I think I had more good news, but I can't remember.
Well, I decided not to show my face (unless commenting your sites) again until I've came up with more artwork. Sooo...hopefully that won't be long. I'm so lazy. I'll always start a project and never finish. I have about 10 waiting for me right now (I'm serious).
By the way, I want to say I feel really bad for Chester Bennington. The lead singer for Linkin Park is always getting hurt. About a month or two ago, he broke his wrist pretty good after getting his foot caught on the stairs and falling about 10 feet during a show in Australia. Then, a month later or so, he was sent to the emergency room to get stitches in his lip. Apparently, he was playing tennis when the ball and the racket his mouth. Poor Chester..... He reminds me of my friend who got the stitches in the head 'cause she's always getting hurt, too. By the way, she's doing fine. She got the stitches out, and is suffering no (apparent) brain damage.
Ummm... Oh! I also figured out that thing where you can move the text on a site without moving the background. If anyone's wondering, let me know! ^_^
Uhhh...Okay, let's just move on.
Alright, I got a big favor to ask you guys. I want to start writing my story, but I don't know where to start. I've been having this problem for a while, but that smack of insight hasn't come to me for this...yet. Hence I said yet, 'cause that's where you guys come in. You guys get to vote on where you think the story should start. But before you vote, let me give you a bit of information about the story first.
The story is technically a fanfic by definition of a fanfic, though I never think of it as such. Anyways, the story is kind of Yu Yu Hakusho as I would have it, plus a whole bunch of other stuff. Anyways, our main characters are Hiei and another OC girl named Rose. No, this is not a pairing. However, they are best friends and have been with each other since about the time they were born. After being banished from their home, they lived as orphans until about the age of 5 (early childhood). That's when a huge turning point in their lives were since they were adopted (late childhood).
That's kinda all you need to know for the poll. If you guys have any questions, you can go ahead and ask. I won't bite ^_^ The poll will be up for a while. Go ahead and ask friends to vote, too. I really want a lot of people to vote. Click

Uhh... Oh! Question answers (Whoa, that's cool...Question answers...yeah) from 2 posts ago:
1) Any ideas what the layout should be for the new wallpaper?
Answer: I'm hoping to get a real layout along with the background I've been promising for months. I tried getting a Hiei one temporarily, but truthfully none of them are very good. Either a bad image or bleak background. Or both! What I was saying about the smack of insight earlier was that I thought of this really nice idea while thinking about m y friend Erin's birthday. Originally, I was going to draw it inside her card. Then that smack came to me saying that this was a great idea for the wallpaper. Who knew?
2) Do you think that what an author writes somehow reflects their actions, beliefs, etc?
Answer: Well, first off thanks to tiggerola for her long and helpful comment. (And this answer will be a response to what she wrote.) It's hard for me to write something I don't necessarily believe in, either. But I try because there's a lot of shades of grey in the world (by the way, I'm in no way trying to offend you). I like to show differences in personality as well as sameness. And when I say I write realistically, things that really should have a reason behind it does, and other things sometimes will not (such as someone saying something that is a lie or has no meaning). As for everything else, I agree. I wouldn't mind starting a club. That would be another thing to cross off my list of things to do before I do. Two clubs in less than a month's time. I just started a club just recently of The Single Girl's Club for girls who have never had a boyfriend and for girl's who do not want one for the time being. 5 people in total. I don't like uneducated and/or closed-minded people too much...Thanks, again. ^_^
Jeez, I'm freezing. I can barely type 'cause my hands are shaking so badly. *puts a blanket on* I swear it's colder in my house than outside...and it's winter.
New questions!
1) Any good tips or places to refer to for layout help?
2) Will you vote? (Sry if I'm being too persistent)
3) Any other good ways you guys got for starting stories?
Ok...I need to go stop my brain from freezing. So I'll see you guys when I get some more fanart. Bye!
