General Update
Nov. 25th, 2004 03:15 pmWell, Monday was my birthday (Thanks to everyone who wished us a happy one!!) and after some debate, we made a decision.
Watching many Shonen Jump series, most characters have something in common. They have a clear, decisive goal that they want to reach, such as Luffy wants to be the King of Pirates and Naruto wants to be the Hokage. That sort of goal is something that I'm kinda envious of. ...Even if we are kinda wondering about what happens after they make their goal. But anyway, we've come up with our own goal to strive for.
We want to be an interesting person. That's our big goal for our life. If that means traveling, cool. If that means odd unusual jobs and skills, all the better. But we just don't want to end up be a boring person.
Speaking of odd jobs and birthdays, new job started on our birthday as well.
-If I make it through the holydaze sane, it'll be a blasted miracle.
Anyway, lotta stuff going on offline, doing some ficcage, but mainly working on updating Ysabet's site. Ferget NaNoWriMo, think we've deleted over 50,000 words of unnessacary coding out of the various pages. @_@;; Some writing. -Po'e, you have a birthday fic on the way, but it'll prolly be about a week before we get a break to put it up. Sorry. 'Neechan's also in town and limping along.
Odd thing of the day was checking out the latest hitstats for Mischif.net (we did get a -slight- update done last weekend, Ang3lbrt: Shades of Grey has been re-updated and everything's in order again) and found someone had linked to us, with the comment that some of the short fics had shonen-ai content in it. With a happy face.
... we had been avoiding for quite some time putting shonen-ai content into our stories, because for a very long time, our reading of the DC/MK fandom was that it wasn't slash friendly. Then we just kinda gave up, and now it seems like there are lots of yaoi and slashy fans in the DC fandom. *scratches head* Kinda makes my head spin. Has the influx of new fans changed the fandom that much? (wow, approching 3 years now that we've been active in the fandom)
Voices are also in debate about de-friending SoG once we finish the next three chapters that are in progress, which'll push the time line to over a year since the story began and about 40 chapters, which'll prolly happen around Christmas. Yeah, it's not -that- slashy, but we don't wanna offend anyone either. On the other hand, that is what the back button's for.
-anyway, just something we've been wondering about for a while. Thoughtful feedback welcome.
So, Happy Turkey Day to those celebrating it and we'll talk to ya in a bit, hopefully bearing our usual amount of ficcage and other creative offerings. In the meantime, we're gonna go eat. Whee. ^___^ <3
