You can do it. And you know I would love to be a reader, don't you? I pine for your words--it's just that way.
And, ah, if I'm correct you called us your expensive friends ^_~ Chers verses cheris. The former being "expenives" and the latter being "darlings/dears" (both in the plural). haha.
I'm glad you're setting yourself such a fantastic goal. I could never manage it, either. I'll be surprised if Armin gets a full novel the way he deserves one, and will be terribly happy if you get a full draft. Then you can work towards the second. Please, try your hardest! And know I'm open to be a reader, or at the very least, you can flood me with writerly angst since I always seem to do so to you. Best of luck, all my wishes, and keep on the task as best as you can, oui? If you intend to finish, that is all you need, and you will finish. |

Hah, that's what you think! You haven't read this trash yet. ^_~
[On a random note, I'm going to start off very poorly and bend my own rule, ask you if you'd like to be a third reader? *smites self* Fifteen whole minutes in and I'm breaking rules, haha. But as you were there through the entire Kyra Crisis Stage, I would appreciate your thoughts. ^_^ (If you have the time, patience and tolerance, of course).] |

Haha, thank you. I still find your confidence totally misguided, but whatever you say, Snow Pig... ^_^'
Ja, then? |

Inbox E-mail #3:
Dear [name],
It's something we don't often do, but after reading and discussing your poetry, the Editorial Advisory Board of the International Library of Poetry has nominated you for membership in the most exciting poetry organization in the world -- the International Society of Poets!
The Editorial Advisory Board wholeheartedly agrees that your poetic writings warrant a nomination to join the International Society of Poets -- a poetry organization that is world-renowned and dedicated to recognizing poetic talent such as yours...
...and so on.
--
I'm trying to decide if it's a scam. XD
No. I just decided. It has to be.
But am I sure? Not quite. I think I tried to get a scholarship from these people a while back. Now I'm all confused.
I think they're telling me I didn't win the scholarship, but all the same, I may feel free to sink money into their magazine and organization just for the sake of something to do? |

You'll want to google the thing-y and try to find more info on it (I'll do some hunting if I have time. ^_~) before going one way or the other. |

DD,
I believe the International Library of Poetry is connected to poetry.com, that odious vanity publisher. I'd stay away from it if I were you. |

Heh, thanks Till, but I don't think you have to bother. After looking into this more, I'm going to agree with Tri. It gets banished to the deep, dark, recesses of the Junk Folder. ^~
Ah well.
False alarm.
I was all pleased, too. |

I would set deadlines, I suppose, but I'd just break them. Though there are those pesky peoples smaur, Snoink, and Imp especially who are fantastic at guilting me into writing.
