LadyAlchemist's Journal

Few... so... much... work to do..!

Hey, everyone... I know, I've been kinda dead lately. College has started up for me again and I'm trying to revive my original role playing site along with post semi-regularly to Luna so i don't die there as well. Sorry Quizilla has been sitting on the back burner... it has just been giving me so many posting problems that I haven't had the energy to fight with it of late.

Images: for some reason, I can't make photobucket images load up properly, and it's a fight to get pictures to load onto the Quizilla host thing. I know lots of people (me included) worked hard to contribute these images, and i won't post without the results I want. So sorry... I'm trying my best to force it to work, honest!


Ok... I'm almost done posting up all of the TOR chapters that were on this site and will soon move to posting some new ones for that series. That said, it's time I started moving a series from this site to my NobodysDamsel one... and the next up on the chopping block will be A Key for Your Heart. So yes, it will be disapearing from this site, and very soon. Yes, it will show up on ND; yes, it will be a slightly different variation then the one you see here. Better and cleaner, i hope... with the damn pictures I want shown! *eye twitch* Anyway, be looking for that in the near future.

And that's all for the moment... thanks for stopping by!

I wish I was a perfectionist, because perfectionists don't mess up and require things like NEW New Account info posts, having gotten it right the first time.

Oh well... we can't all be perfect.

Here's the link to my new account...and it actually works this time!

*deep, soothing breaths*

Hello everyone... god, this place is driving me absolutly insane. X_X Sorry for the delay, peoples! As promised, here is a link to my new acount!


I'm sorry, I wish I could put that in link form, but all of the HTML I knew seems to have been made obsolete. Grr... if anyone knows how to make HTML work in this new editor, please let me know! I would be forever grateful... you can have my first born child! Honest! As long as you promise not to eat them. o.o

Anyway, new account... not much up there yet, but I'm trying. I've spent hours trying to post the first chapter to TOR up... and it's still not up. *glowers* I'm trying, I'm trying! For some reason, the pictures aren't showing up... though I put them up through photobucket and all i was getting was the 'this image has been moved or deleted' thing. Of which, neither have been done. *heavy sigh*

Anyway, that's all... sorry if I'm coming off as frustrated, but I am. Go by, check out the new account... oh, and the link should take you to my other account's journal; it was the only place I could find a link I was sure would get you where you need to be.

Happy Hunting...

--Amunet

*heavy sigh*

I think Quizilla has done everything possible to drive me up the wall... and then it comes up with something fresh and new to keep me on my toes. How thoughtful..!

Ok, I know the first chapter of That Otherworldly Romance isn't showing up, as are some others some times... what it looks like I'm going to have to do is delete the series and post it up again. *deep fat sigh* Which, of course, means a lot of work for me and a lot of delay for you.

I'm so sorry about this! This is punishing you guys for something that isn't your fault; curse you, changes! I'll do my best to get things up and running once again!

--Amunet

Hey all wonderful That Otherworldly Romance fans!

I've got a poll up to see just who has won your favor thus far... as you know, it's a romance without any romantic destination at the moment... hence the need for a poll. XD It's not the deciding poll, which won't be for a few chapters buuuut... the results reflect on who shows up more. So go vote!

Annnnnd... now I'm going to try doing something constructive. Point!

--Amunet

Hello, all So Dictionary fans!

The 3 part series that started as a one shot on this site has been completed! Finally finished, after oh so long, lol..!

If you'd like to read it, drop by Lunaesence.com under my penname Halfbreed Maiden. Here's a link!

http://www.lunaescence.com/fics/viewstory.php?sid=6274&warning=13

Hope you enjoy..!

Okies... again, I have to be quick. I'll get around to giving another detailed journal entry soon, no worries!

OKies, so I posted a chapter to my Riku series! Not too much different from the one shot until the end, but I promise it'll pick up soon!

Also, I finished making We'll Go Together, my AdiRox one shot, look pretty! It's actually legible now, lol! Go check it out..!

Results from my poll are showing people like seeing things on more then one site... so that's up for consideration from me, just so you know! ^_^

And that's all for the moment... I'l check in again soon!

--Amunet

It took forever to work into the editor the way I wanted it to, but the first chapter in my Riku series is up for your viewing pleasure..!

It's called

|Riku| Ж .:The FAITH Inside:. Ж |Kingdom Hearts|

I really hope you enjoy it..! It's just the prologue, but more will be up soon..! Sorry I don't have time for more info giving, my baby brother's being a baby and is kicking me off the internets. Oh well... enjoy!

--Amunet

Ok... several orders of buisness:

First Order:
I have made the decision to delete Black Feathers from this site and transfer it to Luna. I know there are a lot of people on this site who like it, but I just feel like it would do better on a site like Luna... plus they don't have much DNAngel stuff there, and I feel like contributing. ^_^ No worries, I'll finish the series on that site and put a link up here so all of the fan-like people can find it..! ^__^

Second Order:
OK... I'm thinking about how to best go about this editing everything thing. After giving it some thought I've decided I'm actually going to focus on editing unfinished series first, and I'm not going to post to any series that hasn't been updated, so progress will be slow. Bear with me..!

Third Order:
Another series..! I've been itching to extend my A Less Than Idyllic Meeting one shot into a series, and put it off becuase... well, just because. It was fun to see you guys guess who the mystery guy was... the overall winner was Riku, amusingly. And, of course, with that result, a whole potential for a story blossomed in my mind... and I found myself thinking: Why should the Adi/Rox story be the only spin off of AKFYH that gets told..? Why shouldn't my awesome readers get to find out what happened to Riku and Estelle..? There is no reason..! It'll probably be in 2nd person, POV, but keep an eye out for more details..!

Fourth Order:
Alright... posting order. Once I get everything edited and stuffs, I'll be on a more regular posting schedule. I've decided to try another method: posting in round. I'll stop at the top of my list of stories and post a chapter, then post a chapter for the next series, then for the next, then for the next. It should go in a circle, and hopefully will help keep me from neglecting any one series like I've been doing of late. ^_^;

Okies... that's all for the moment. I'll keep you posted..!

--Amunet

I know, I know... why, you ask..!

Well, I'll tell you. I moved it to my Halfbreed Maiden account at Luna, just to have my first solid series on that site. To help keep up with thieves and plagurisers I don't post my stories on more then one site; that way my readers know that if it pops up anywhere else without notice, then it's a theft.

Once again, here's the link to the Luna site; check it out..!
http://www.lunaescence.com

You don't have to have an account to read my stories I post up on Luna..! Here's the link to So Dictionary..!
http://www.lunaescence.com/fics/viewstory.php?sid=6274

Okies, that's all in this report..! Have a nice day, loves..!

--Amunet

Yaaay..! I've finished posting up the chapters of FL&A! You can actually read them now! I know, I know... like whoa, ne? Anyway, if you like Ed and haven't read the series thus far, go red it... if only so Reawakened will make sense. XD

I did almost no midification to FL&A, so it sucks almost as much as the original..! Rather then letting it represent how lazy I truly am, let it stand as a testiment to all things bad and to the fact that you can improve..! At least... I like to think I've improved. =_=;;

Anyway, the question is now what do I plan to do next. Well, I'll tell you.

The editing of the already posted things will be slow... I plan to focus on one shots next, just because they don't link together and I won't be as tempted to edit the crap outta them. XD

I also have the first 4 chapters of the AU series ready for posting..! But since I don't want to get distracted, I am only going to be posting a chapter every two chapters I edit. ^_^ Starting... now..? Methinks I'll go post the prologue. ^_^

And I feel like there's something else I'm supposed to say... but it escapes me. Oh well..! Peace, darlings..!

--Amunet

Hi guys..! I was feeling a bit impatient, and since I've been getting some questions I thought I'd just put a bit of info up on my new series..! Huzzah... and yes, I'm supposed to be doing something responsible right now. Hooray..! XD

And this shall be in Q&A form, mostly because I have developed a fond appreciation for Q&A sessions. ^_^v

Q: Where are the characters going to be from?
A: Kingdom Hearts..! But also included will be AKFYH and SV characters such as Adiana, Kumiko, Zenith, Ohm, and Modgnik Straeh.

Q: Is this series going to follow the game/manga/AKFYH/SV plotlines..?
A: Not even slightly. ^_^; This is going to be completely AU, but not in the normal highschool/normal life sort of way. The characters have new connections to one another and the worlds... for example, Modgnik Straeh is the High King of the universe and King Mickey is the leader of a rebelion group against him. Tons of fun. XD

Q: Genre?
A: Variation, but mostly romance and comedy. ^_^

Q: Yay romance..! Who's the featured couple..?
A: Well, the main focus will be on RoxasxAdiana, just becuase I have tons of fun writing them! But since I also love SoraxKumiko, there will be hints at their relationship as well... just trust me when I say it would be a sorta kinda boring story if I focused on them, just because of the set up. *sweat drop* There will also very very light hining at Riku/Kairi and Axel/Namine, because they're my favorite crack couples. *shrugs*

Q: Point of view..?
A: 3rd person.

Q: Preview..?
A: Weeeeeeell....

Alright... Quizilla is working itself out. I was pleased to see the announcement that homepages are coming back..! I miss boarderline creepy Roxas homepage. XD

Editing is also slowly getting better... there are still many glitches, but I'm working on keeping my cool and trying to wait them out. Because as much as Quizilla is annoying me, it causes me much pain and sadness to think about moving away from here. Deleting what I have actually made me fidget with guilt and sadness. As corny as it sounds, Q! is a large part of my life; I've made lots of friends and, most importantly, progress in my writing (just kidding about the 'most importantly' part, guys! XD). I know I would miss it; other sites just aren't as easy to adjust to as this one..!

So I made the decision to move my original series to other sites or deleating them, while keeping most of the series here... What I might also do is start posting my stories here on other sites, though I really don't see the point in that. *small shrug* We shall see.

Anyway, I'm thinking about posting another series..! I know, I know... finish the other ones..! But it's the inspiration... blame the Muse..! He keeps putting me in a head lock at the most inoppertune time... waaaah! Anyway, if it does get posted, it'll be something a little different... It would be an AU story using the AKFYH staff... anyway, I'll let you know more as I go..!

--Amunet

OK... this is annoying...

I keep trying to comply with this thing... honest, I'm working weally, weally hard...

Previews won't load. Edits won't post. Paragraphs won't align properly. Images won't position the way I want them to. It's hard to move from chapter to chapter. It's time consuming to group chapters.

I am not adjusting well to this switch..! *eye twitch* Plus I haven't been able to read all of the updates from the awesome authors that I've wanted to on this site..!

*roar of frutration and impatience*

Just felt that needed reitterating... anyway, I posted the new version of FL&A... hope it will work in any sort of way, since I can't edit it and just spent hours trying to make it look nice. Gomen... i must go pace...

--Amunet

Hey, editing works again..! Stay!
No, no it doesn't. ^_^ I can get in to edit, spend an hour or so fixing things, and then click the publush button... only for it to tell me in angry red letters that a preview can't be generated, so nor can the fixed version of my chapter. So sorry, but I'm about to maim a foo', *eye twitch*


Are you still going to post updates to the stories you keep here on Quizilla?
The answer to your question is yes. ^_^ Don't worry, I would never be so mean as to make you jump back and forth between 2 websies just to read one story..! All stories that stay on this site will be completed on this site. All stories that move to Luna will be completed on Luna. ^_^

--Amunet

... then why isn't it showing up where I can see it..? Odd... technology, you evil creature..!

Ok... even though it saddens me to say it, I am going to be moving some of my creations here to a new site. I've been a member of Quizilla for ages now, and I really don't want to leave... but I want, love, need to be able to write; it's stress relief for me. And what sort of stress relief can I expect from it if imediently when I try to post all the stress comes back? That's right, none. Of course, I've made so many friends here, so I'm not leaving completely... I'm just going somewhere where I can post my creations in peace.

And where am I going, you ask? Well, I'll tell you! I'm going to a site recomended to me by my good friend Midnight. It's called Lunaescense Archives, and looks to be a pretty awesome place; it's a fanfiction/poetry/original works community. They have earier sorting methods, closer monitoring of grammer and spelling, less restricting rules, and an open, friendly attitude to a wide variety of styles and ideas. I really think I'm going to like it there. ^_^ Want the info..? Sure..!

Lunaescence Archives :: Moderated Creative Writing Community
http://www.lunaescence.com/
Want to find me..? I'm penname Halfbreed Maiden; look me up!

Drop by, if you're looking for a place to lay your little writertastic head! XD

Now, on to the issue of what exactly is moving, what's staying, and what I have no clue about. *sweat drop* Due to my rather contradictary nature, I've had a hard time deciding difinitivly what's going where... I only have a few things I'm positive about. Here are my tentative lists!

Staying:
For Love and Alchemy
Reawakened
If You Can't Take the Heat...
Unlucky in Love
Her First Encounter {One Shot}
Dolls .&. Wishes {One Shot}
Christmas is for Lovers {One Shot}
Oblivion {One Shot}
Mommy Angel and Daddy Train {One Shot}
Not Sure:
Black Feathers
A Key for Your Heart
Sotto Voce
Mission Christmas! {AdiRox One Shot}
You Bet me in a WHAT?! {One Shot}
We'll Go Together {One Shot}
Sponteanous Combustion {One Shot}
That Otherworldly Romance
Going:
He's the Key to finding my Inheritence..? I think I'll Just Stay Poor...
Modern-Day Saint
Simple and Clean {One Shot}
A Less than Idyllic Meeting {One Shot}
So Dictionary Mini-Series

Like I said, this is a tentative list... it's subject to change as I put more thought into it. As it is, only the things already under 'Going' are non negotiable... I'll keep you updated on what I plan to do and when..!

--Amunet

I am so frustrated with Quizilla... and I wish I could say otherwise, especially since I was so adament about giving this new Quizilla a go before judging it. But now I'm looking at the mountians of work that this change is going to make me undergo... and I've decided to take derastic actions.

To fix everything that has been messes up by the new format, I'm going to have to deleat everything, reedit, and post again. I have 198 creations. 198 creations. Not counting my disasterous poll, of course. And my chapters are long, needing pictures and banners inserted along with proper credits. Couple that with the fact that I can't easily edit the releases to look like I want them to, and you have a very aggrivated Amunet.

So, I've come to this decision: I'm going to be moving. Not all the way; at this point in time the only stories I'm transfering are my originals. I'm not sure what site I'll transfer them to yet... I'm looking around (if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!). The ones that would be moving would be Modern Day Saint, He's the Key to Finding my Inheritence? I think I'll just stay poor..., and possibly That Otherworldly Romance and it's informatin chapters. My fanfic/anime related works are going to be staying for the time being... even that may change if I get pissed off enough. ^_^;

I know, I know... this is punishing you guys as well. But don't worry; when I make these changes, I'm going to make it really easy for you guys to find them, and let you know when I update if you don't have an account wherever I transfer to. I just honestly think it'll be a better experience for everyone... and I'll actually be able to write instead of spending all my time shouting insults at my computer screen.

The first series that will be up for fixage on this site will be For Love and Alchemy, completed but practically unreadable after the shift. I'm going to be working as hard as I can, and it's going to begin by deleating all of FL&A. Don't panic..! It's coming back eventually..!

Thank you for having patience with me, guys..! I love you all..!

--Amunet

*inaudible roar of frustration*

Hi guys... I know I've been preaching patiece and everything with this new site change, but there is one thing that I am really, really annoyed by. I want to start the editing process with my released works, but it won't let me.

Every time I go to edit something, I go to the Stuff I Made Page, click on the chapter, and then click the small Edit link. It then takes me to another page where I see a page that tells me that I can't edit this content, and provides a cheerful link that offers me the option of creating a new one. It's making me very VERY twitchy.

Anyone have any feedback about this..? I mean... if it's not happening to anyone else, I'll be glad to know it's an isolated glitch. If I'm doing something wrong, that'll be even better becuase that's easy to fix. X___X;;;

Thanks for dropping by to see what I'm whining about..! @__@;

--Amunet

Hiya, hiya darlings!

Ok... I have good news! Almost all of the chapters I'd posted to the other site are up and running here! the only series that isn't here in it's completion is the recently finished Unlucky in Love, which is missing a handful of later chapters. Just take a deep breath; and I'm sorry about the wait! I'll keep you all informed about how chapter retrieval is going, m'mkay?

I've had a lot of questions asked to me, I'll try to answer them as well as I can! You should really check out the staff journals to find specifics... click the 'What... The... Heck's Going On Around Here?' to the right of your screen. You'll find a whole bunch of journal entries from the staff explaining the whats and whys of the move, along with the outline of what you will and will not be able to do here in the new site. I think our days with playing with HTML are over, though... u.u

That said... I MISS MY ROXAS-TASTIC HOMEPAGE!!!

Ok, now on to other things. @_@

I Can't See the Answers for your Poll, Amunet!: *grinds teeth* I know, I know... I'm sorry! I was as irritated as I've been thus far when I noticed that... I really liked the old poll system better; it was more efficient..! I may have to convert it into a quiz, though I hate the thought of doing that. Thanks for trying to give me feedback, though! It's really appreciated..! I'll try to find another way to do this...

Ok, my time has run out. Hope you guys are faring this switch well! @__@;;

--Amunet

Hi guys!

Ok... yay, new Quizilla is up! Finally. Whether you love it or hate it, it's here to stay, so no complaining..! ^_^ Personally, I'm happy about it; now I can get back to work! Ok, I have several issues to address..!

Already Posted Chapters... that are Missing!: Ok, I know not all the chapters I've published are up for reading and I'm sorry, but it's not my fault. XD Just have patience for a while, the Quizilla people will have all the kinks worked out soon! Until then, just be patient! If Quizilla gets the word out that the switch over is complete and some chapters still aren't up, then I'll either contact Quizilla myself or repost them. Promise..! ^_^

The format of Posted Works looks Weird!: Yeah, I know, I know... paragraphs aren't showing up like I want them to. Again, sorry for the inconvienence, but I'm going to give it a week or so to see if Quizilla works it all out. If not then it'll be back to going through every... single... chapter... and making it so that I don't cringe when I look at the chapters. *winces just thinking about it*

New Quizilla is up... what are the posting plans?: Ok... I write as I get the impulse, people! I was wanting to try to finish my Roy story up, but I have been getting the impulse to write for other things instead. Sorry... but that means a chapter of BF, SV, and TOR will be coming to you soon, along with both a Roxas and a L one shot as well. And, for the imediate future, I'm not going to be posting to my series until Quizilla gets straightened out... just in case..!

WHAT!? You're not continuing MDS?!: I know, I know... I said I would continue if I got the messages, and I did indeed get the messages. But I have been trying to work out the chapter flow, and I just can't get a feel for it. Vampire things have never really been my thing... I'm not sure I can hold the mood for the long run. That doesn't mean that they won't be showing up in one shots... I got an awesome banner to use, after all..! Anyway, its not official, but it's a probability...

Oooh... a new original series..?: Yes, it's true. I can't help it; I have random brain waves. I have several stories that I am in love with... an adventure/love story in the flavor of Indiana Jones (because I LOVE Indy <3) and maybe another... I'll probably be throwing up a poll to decide for sure sometime in the near future. Its to celebrate the opening of a new site..!

Annnnnnnd that's all. ^_^ Peace, homies..!
