I like uncommon names but not weird ones. I really hate it when people write stories set in present-day and give their characters all strange names that people would never ...

StumbleUpon (the greatest toolbar known to man) has distracted me from just about everything. I have to agree with Loose and say that long showers and eating help me procrastinate ...

I have tons of notebooks that are half-full, although I favor the expensive Five-Star ones, but I don't carry it around with me wherever I go. I'm too scatterbrained; I'd ...

My longest (at the moment) is about 60k. Before that and NaNo last year, I could never stick with anything long enough for it to get past many 20(?) pages, ...

Hmm... It depends. When I really just want to get into the writing mode, I usually listen to a CD by Amethystium, and they're kind of new-age sounding, like Enya ...

Ooh, I'll definitely have to read Ahoy Insanity. It seems very interesting! :D I began to read Ten Years, but then I started writing something on my computer and got ...

I don't really need anything, but music is preferable. Sometimes, though, music disrupts my flow, because I'll space out and start typing the words to the song. I have this ...

(This might be a bit late, XD.) I would totally read something like that. It seems like an interesting idea, and I LOVELOVELOVE Garden State, so if there's any similarities, ...
