LOL! We've actually asked Aaron that question (by e-mail). Curious what his answer will be.

Hey.. question.. I'm writing this Adam/Joan story with two angles. A bit thru Joan, a bit thru Adam and so on. How would you prefer the beginning:
a) reading how well Joan is doing professionally, and she's still talking to God, meeting her family. All very perky.
b) reading how Adam awakes to new day all bruised up feeling that life's hitting him with both hands. Still he seeses new day full of hope, never loosing his passion for Art.. and pretty brunettes...
I'm thinking about changing Adam first. It would make much more sence to the timeline. But would it be too debressing beginning? Would you lose you interest?
Remember this is my Joanverse.. It's ten years after high school, they're all grown up. Gives me more freedom to develope the characters..

Let me ask it this way.. First paragraph from each...
Joan
Joan was smiling. She was so happy. Pleased with her self. She had just won a case. Not just any case. She just wiped the floors with a big bad chain store. That will teach them not to treat their employees like dirt. She couldn't wipe the smirk of her face even when she walked in back to the office. Everybody was congratulating her. She thanked them and head to her own office. She was just 28 years old and she had her own office in a respected law firm. It was all her own doing, her accomplishment. Well, God helped a little; guiding her. Her parents were very proud. Heck, she was very proud. And the best part about her job: she got to do a lot of pro-bono cases. Help the ones no-one else wanted to.
Adam
He woke up. That's something. His ears hurt. Noise. It made his head hurt. The window was open and all the noise from the streets came in. He stood up and closed it. He grimaced for the pain in his leg when he took a step. He went to bathroom. As he was washing his hands he looked at him self in the mirror. That's not a good look for me, he thought. It hurts to smile. He looked like someone just dragged him behind a car for a few blocks. Felt like it too. That wasn't far off. Note to self: never ever date a girl with a jealous ex. So never date again. Why does every damn girl in this city have a jealous ex?

Um.. Okay.. I made the change. Looks better now. I've read through the first chapter about 40 times and each time corrected something or added something. I need to stop now or it will end up way too long.
So I'm ready to post it. I quess I'll need someone to proofread it.. Deb? What's your adress? It should be someone who would cought the mistakes. I did try to be thorough..

So, just a funny coincidence, just as my internet pulled up Probation Part 1: With A Little Help From My Friends of Butterflies, a commercial with the song came on tv. Okay, back to the rereading now.

Schpooky!
And, um, happy rereading. :embarrassed:
I've wanted to write something new for a long while. I got a little burst of dialogue for a Carl & Suzy Post-Graduation fic tonight that I've been contemplating. It's a non-smutty story so far. But I've been feeling some smutty rumblings lately too. A certain slow-burn urge to turn out some fresh A/J p@rn. Guess we'll see if either story finds its way to fruition...

Yeah right. I wasn't sure if it went through. I just sent you the new enhanched first chapter as a word document. It's only five pages long.. The second chapter is about double of that.. That one still needs some work. Maybe I'll put some of it to the third one..

Posted a new Adam/Grace fic.

Yeah, that's about all I have to say about it.

It just took me back, is all. I was sitting on my mom's front porch after my roommate and I found her. The cops and the coroner were inside. My friend Elaine called me. I guess she's my Grace.

Good job. Grace is such a good friend.

That was a good one.
Agreed.
Hm, hm, I thought a lot about my fanfiction lately. Maybe I'll try to finish it finally.
I hugged the Seeker!

No Maria, I must confess that I have not done much of anything I'm supposed to be doing lately. I've been slammed at work and exhausted when I get home. Not sleeping too well. And I'm completely obsessed with politics and the election right now. I spend far too much time on Huffingtonpost.com and watching the political talk shows. I'm lucky if I can fit in my regular TV shows. For instance, while I had them on, I couldn't tell you what happened on House or Law & Order SVU this week. I did manage to pay attention to Private Practice last night. Well, most of it. I'm pretty much useless at the moment. Sorry. But I will get to it. Promise.
