haha i knOW RIGHT? Sorry I haven't chatted with you, school, y'know. I've also been focusing a lot on my stories (plus, can you believe, I had to finish 3 art projects for one subject by the same due date? this is utter nonsense)

It's ok :) I understand. Hell, I've just been on school holidays but I go back tomorrow and I'm facing my busiest few months in a long time. I have a fantasy to create and finish before the end of this term (which is NOT enough time, especially as I have never written a fantasy before!!).
Well done you, dealing with all that nonsense! 

So other than that, how have you been?

Other than all that? A little tired, bored, kind of dead-faced yknow. I feel like nothing exciting happens anymore, and that's also probably because I'm at a cousin's house and I haven't been home, and literally I do not have the mental capacity to be nice all the time :/ and I'm like the eldest, it's absolute torture. Besides that, I've been having trouble writing my own story but I apparently don't have trouble not writing it in chronological order. So basically, I'm a mess. 

Haha, and you? I hope you've been good. And good luck with those busiest months, because I'm dying here.

yeah :/ I know that feeling all too well.
And the same with the cousin thing. I have a younger step bro and step sis, and they have a ten year old cousin, an eight year old cousin, a five year old cousin and a two year old cousin, and their family is one that's fond of family get-togethers. 
WE CAN GET THROUGH THIS *dramatic teary hopeful face*

Writing is a badass pastime but sometimes it can be a real bitch. Usually what I do is work on little scrappy pieces to give myself a break from my main two stories, as sometimes I find I'm over-thinking them without even realising and just need a little while to 'breathe'. Not sure if you've tried this or if it will work for you but I thought I should mention it just in case :)

Do you want any help with anything?

I've been alright. I've been playing guitar a lot lately (my fingers hurt now though D: ), so yeah. That's good. 
And thanks :) 
Don't you die on me grrl! D: I'd be all sad and stuff ;n;

Yeah, I've been giving myself some space to breathe, so now I'm just editing past chapters for grammar mistakes and such. But what is currently very painful is that in English class we're starting this new kind of unit where we have to finish one book in a month and a half and have 4 projects done for it by then. I am so stressed out, and I still have to do a bunch of art projects while I'm doing physics for Science and it's all giving me a headache. Currently, I am extremely overwhelmed.

So far I don't think I need help with much, but thanks for offering :D 

And I'm not dying yet xD everything's just been a little too extreme

good :) and editing is probably another good idea (something I should do more often, heh)

my god, does anyone actually realise that writing doesn't work like that? I have the whole last term to finish off mine (granted, the last term of school is now only 9 weeks long or something, ever since we changed from three terms to four), and I'm even struggling with that! Dang, good luck! 
Believe me when I tell you that I totally understand what drowning in work feels like. This year's been particularly hard. 

eh that's ok :)

well ok then, but - what the hell my computer only just decided to realise there's a DVD in it and started playing it - don't you die on me! 

you write fantasy, don't you? (I still haven't read your main story thingy yet, ugh! I want to but I have so many things to do so it has to wait!)

ooooh, 3 to 4 terms? That's crazy Dx God no. Do you have exams? And with these 4 terms does it mean you'll have exams MORE OFTEN? I remember going through something like that. Not at all pleasant.

Oh and yes I write fantasy xD And you don't have to read it yet. There are still grammar mistakes that I'm having trouble locating :/ and I'm almost done it, so when it's complete you can read it. Right now though? eeehhh, just saying not a lot happen for the first 15 chapters. Sadly. That's like half of the whole book.
