icons

pandora_nervosa linked to an entry of teh_indy with some Labyrinth icons. And I got myself one.
Which means that out of the thirteen icons I have currently in use, five are Labyrinth icons. Should that worry me? It doesn't.
To my defence let me say that at least the new icon, as you can see, is not a Jareth icon.

To brighten up my day

The internet is amazing! I found this site today. Made me smile.
No matter how you feel, there always seems to be something to make you laugh, or cheer you up when you're sad.

Fourth post on a Sunday, spamming your friends page

I'm stuck.
Some time ago I wrote a fanfic in German. I finished it, but didn't like it. So when I started to translate I also started changing it.
The idea I started with is good, I think, but the story just isn't really getting anywhere. I have a general aim, but no real plotline. I'm not happy with the language.
I think I need to write down the things I am more or less sure about right now, and then put it away for a time.
I have a scene for another story in my mind anyway, I should write that down before I forget it.

I hate this feeling of having ideas in my mind and not finding the words to express them. I tr to make notes to come back later. I write little ficlets of scenes and kind of file them for later use.
Which makes me feel like the paperback novel writer I once read about, who had scenes all ready in her desk - she in danger, he saves her or vice versa, sex scenes for every opportunity, dialogues - and just put them together and in proofreading had to make sure all characters kept their names and characteristic features over the course of the story.

I just had a look at my LJ calendar. I posted on every single day in August. 31 days in a row. I can't have that much to say!

I listen to 1. outside, something I rarely do. But it fits my mood.
