Just let the characters speak. Let them talk like -humans talk-. Within reason. Humans can be pretty fucking vile.

Oh ... so I have another 24 hours (sorta) right now? ... Meh, still doing the final edit and posting today. I'll only forget or something stupid and I have a stitch and bitch tomorrow night. Deadline is now 33 hours from now instead of 9 hours from now, yeah. I approve of this new development.

You just don't like anything I write! <pout> I agree with your comments. It did seem "Ram it down your throat: boring normal day" 100%. Without the uber purple prose it would have been too flash again >.<
New topic time - huzzah!

God I did terrible apparently. Okay, I have to revise my earlier assumption. Being in a poor mental state makes me think things that I did were far better than they actually were. I apologize.
Seriously though, I haven't been in the best mental state the last few days, and I seriously screwed the pooch on this one. Ugh, I hate when I screw up.

Sorry for the double post, but are we supposed to write about ourselves now or are we supposed to write as if it is a character writing it?

"Write as if the character is writing is" isn't autobiographical... it's... it's just first-person past-tense...
... so..
... not that.

Okay, what I meant is write as if the character is writing about itself's life. Whatever, now I'm even more confused. And to be a bit idiotic, I have been feeling like utter crap for the last few days. So badly that I started to write a journal. So Please, be direct with me. I don't take most inferences well.

Well, shit, how am I going to work -that- into the same story? I've already decided these folks have no written language. Hmm. . .

I've already decided these folks have no written language. Hmm. . . I had my topics picked beforehand. I didn't want to drop this one just because of what you had going, because I think this one should be -really interesting-. But yeah. Kind of feel like saying 'sorry' anyway.

Maybe I can metaphor myself into the plot. . . Or maybe I'll just write my autobiographical reaction to that last round.
