Too many Reenies
So recently I heard criticism for Reenie’s misconduct as a young adult and the mistakes she made with her relationships. To which I say, kudus! You were paying attention and I’m honored. The points this person levied were all intentionally written to establish the character and give a point of comparison for how she navigates people later in the story. But it got me thinking.
Reenie is.....singular. And what I mean is that she avoids internal reflection and sets her behavior in a very purposeful, and external way. Because of this I’ve been able to fuck with her the most. Zandy thinks inwardly to an unhealthy degree, so she doesn’t change near as much. But with Reenie I actually label each defining point in her life, to the point I have to slap myself and remember what Reenie Era I’m in. Writing #69 has been hard because she’s a moody, selfish, stupid brat who constantly hurts people around her because she, herself, is hurting, yet she’ll never admit it. I want to slap her. She is far from the intelligent lawbian who rose my pen. But, she’s still Reenie. They’re all Reenie. Bitter Drama End Reenie, Out-And Proud Reenie, Cool Mom Reenie, Suicidal Reenie, Here-to-Fuck Reenie, Playful-Reenie, Rebel-Reenie. And everyone’s favorite Future-Daughter-of-Neo Queen Serenity-Rini.
Food for thought, but it’d be fun to hear which version of our blonde, mother hating lawbian you hope asks you out.
A note on FanFiction vs the market.
If there is one thing J.K. Rowling should go down in writing history for it’s being a page turner. Be I 10 or 20 her chapters nearly always ended in a way that left me feeling like I was 10 minutes in to a grand adventure, and the next chapter title (for it simply is impossible to stop reading without previewing the next chapter) made it impossible to walk away. I never tired. I am not J.K. A shock, I know. As a writer I’m constantly reminded the perils we all face as FF readers. It’s hard. Nothing is guaranteed. Is there any amongst us who hasn’t bought a flash drive to save that one story that spoke to your soul for the fear it could disappear like so many before it? It has been this sympathy that has driven me to avoid cliff hangers, and keep a regular update schedule.
Here in lies the problem. My chapters take longer than a week to write. I have to work, this doesn’t pay the bills. I do work ahead to buy some time. This is what my little vacation is about. Trying to get ahead, and get organized.
But it’s not enough. I don’t feel like my skills have really grown in 2 years, and I owe my readers better than that. I feel it’s time for me to accept that I’m not the professional style writer I want to be. It’s dirty, and I don’t like it, but I think future updates are going to be broken up chapters. In my mind I’m still crafting a single chapter with goal, and a piece of my theme, but in order to give myself time to focus on more than throwing down words as fast as possible before Friday. So a chapter will have to be broken to be published. I’m still working out how this will happen as I believe if you wait a wait for a chapter it should provide 20-30 minutes of reading, and hours of squealing. If I was in a position where I didn’t have to worry about losing the audience I would love to start a podcast that blathered about Chris Chan, dildos, and government funded programs, while working on a completed story, taking breaks with shorties and one-shots. But I don’t feel like FF readers are so kind. My views have stayed steadied during his time, I have my theories, but simply say it’s a relief. But I’m always weary to test their patience. I may be one of the few Courtship writers, but few ship just Courtship. Anywhoo... I thought I’d share my thoughts and update y’all. I welcome any feedback.
“Dick! It’s too late! I feel strange! I feel-! I feel-! Like I love lesbians! Dick! I love them!”
Happy America! Gaze upon my rock hard cock!
Oh excuse me.
Never too early!
Here we can see the...jewel. Most ladies have a jewel. You must ask about how to treat their jewel. They may not want you touch it. That’s fine. Love the jewel. Respect the lady.
