I am frequently reminded of how much I enjoy good writing.

I will read fanfic about things I know nothing, if I know that the author is a good one. I will friend journals for no other reason than because they write good fiction (I have a few of those). I _like_ stories which catch my attention. And I like following characters.


(Incidentally, rosefoxwrites, godkin, midnight_mare, teratogenesis, writerbrain - all writing-specific journals.

The godkin journal even has the ability to donate, which makes me happy. I like being able to encourage people to write, as well as make it a little easier for them to survive while doing it.

There are others on my friends list who randomly write things and post them, but that's different.

Don't forget colinhowe. :)

I had, in fact, entirely forgotten!

I think this is because I tend to not be drawn into purely mystery stories, so had stopped reading it. :)

I'm glad you like it. *)

Jeez, I haven't updated writerbrain in ages.... but I post everything I would post there on my LJ, anyway.

Is it that you prefer to get your fiction in a separate place/journal from regular journalling?

I do, simply because, that way, I know what I can safely save for (potentially) later reading without missing something specific to someone's life.

Also, when I'm suggesting fiction for reading, I prefer to be able to suggest something which isn't cluttered with other things. So I won't suggest people who happen to randomly write fiction in their journals, no matter how much I might enjoy that fiction.

That is sense-making.

And in that case, I'd better keep writerbrain up to date. :)

*chuckle* Indeed, you should!

I see you Saturday (although I don't know how social I will be, I will at least be there at all)!

Yay! Seeing/hugging you will be good, oh yes.
