45 people have joined [livejournal.com profile] placesyouhaunt!

I write all the damn time, but since I don't get much feedback, I constantly worry that no one's interested. Or that I suck. So. A bunch of you adding the new story makes me happy in a week when I could use some happy, and I thank you.

The thing about this story...

a) It has an undercurrent of art, not music. Everything else has an undercurrent of music, but this feels different in my brain.

b) I'm not pre-planning. I'm not post-planning. I'm not writing ahead of myself. I know one speech that's going to come along, and I know the last few lines, but otherwise I'm just going with the flow.

I'm not bound by continuity here like I am in Shayara.

I have room to let these characters, this story, surprise me.

It's very different.

Again, I wish I could draw!

Isn't And These Places That You Haunt the nanowrimo attempt from... last year, year before? About Vegas?

Damn, this is the Vegas story I've been wanting to read and I didn't even know it?

Sign me up.

This is from the year before - the one starring Sara and Doodle, not Lex.

It's my working title for this basic idea. I just love the song!

Add the journal, and I'll add you in my next round of adding people...

Way ahead of you, kiddo. Added before I posted. ;)

I added [livejournal.com profile] writerbrain too. just realized I'd never done that.

you know, you keep adding journals, and I'll need a 'song-only filter... ;)

I'll feedback you if you'll feedback me.

I usually print out your stuff to read on the bus so feedback isn't very easy...

Hm!

I'm interested! (Yeah, I know you knew that, but positive reinforcement is a good thing:)

I don't comment much because I think I would often just say the same sort of thing to each post (Oooh, I like that.) and thought every comment would be truthful and sincere, I'd fear you'd think it was almost a form letter.

But I love reading what you write.
