The Phantoms of the Opera And The Things They Do To Annoy Nadir.

thoughts of a tired phangirl

Yes, it's late and I'm tired, but I need to write this??

I love Porcelain Mask. It's my book baby. It is my child. I even hit chapter 20 today (spoiler, Nikki got bitch-slapped by Erik)! That means Chapter 21 can be the masquerade scene, just as I'd planned, which is great (I have this idea for that ball that I think will work really well, but we'll see. It was originally an ALW retelling, but as this book has gone in, I've taken more and more artistic lisence with it and am LOVING IT!)!

My only problem?

This poor, unhappy script book seems to be gathering dust.

I AM NOT ABANDONING IT!

Idk why I wrote that in capital letters. Is the spelling in this ok? I haven't checked.

The story with this pretty little book, filled with my phavourite phive, is I'm on a go-slow with it. Porcelain Mask is a big project and it takes up most/all of my writing time. I'm not going to abandoning this book, but I guess that's just why it hasn't been updated in a while. I've actually started several new scripts in it, but haven't gotten around to actually finishing/editing/proofreading/publishing them (even then, I'm STILL noticing mistakes in the old chapter smh!).

So that's why here doesn't seem to be a lot going on. There actually is, but it's all behind the scenes stuff and whatnot.

To make up for it, here's a snippet from Porcelain Mask, which either helps or it doesn't?? I just don't want to leave without give you guys something to take away from this.

"Are those my slippers?" Erik frowned at his new footwear.

"I found them in the library," he said, returning to the cup of watery, milkless tea he was making. I huffed and closed the kitchen door behind me.

"Those are my best mink ones!" He grunted a nonchalant reply and I scowled. "I want them back by the end of the day!"

XD I wrote that either today or yesterday? I think it was yesterday. Anyhow, this is BEFORE she gets bitch-slapped!

If it doesn't come through in my writing, I'm sooo tired, like, what even-

I will DEFINITELY keep this book going. There are still so many scenarios I want to write! Oh, one more thing that has literally just come to mind (I'm pretty much just writing what comes to mind now): I can't take requests. I'm sure from reading this you can work out why lol!

K, night!

*falls asleep there and then.*

Merik: *glances at Lerik*
Is it rude to wake her, orrrr......

Lerik: idunno. Some part of my says wake her with pots and pans, another, softer, squishier part says-

Cherik: Guys! Let her sleep!

Lerik: Precisely!

Kerik: Oh, you don't know how to have fun!
*walks behind her*
*dumps a load of ice down the back of her neck*

*stays fast asleep*

Kerik: What in-

Cherik: haha!

(I'm so bad at this when I'm tired, cringgeeee XD Poor Cherik didn't deserve that last line!)
