Bree's Rantings for October.

I'm working on the last chapter of LKG right now. Well, sort of. I'm trying to. I have 5 of my hopefully 10 (unlikely) pages typed up already. *Thats like an ATCR standard chapter* AINE will hopefully be chapter lengths such as the chapter 39 of LKG was.
The chapter is a tad slow going since I've gotten no sleep. Remember the days of ATCR when Bree would stay up and not sleep, just to get you a chapter? Or a you got a chapter simply because Bree couldn't sleep? Welcome to Bree's world once again. Except, Bree's just got too much going on to be able to function like that while in college. I get woken up at 12, 1, 2 in the morning, and can't go back to sleep. That irritabilty does not the best chapters make. Lol.
And for anyone who thinks I've become 'smug' and let my 'internet fame go to my head': First off, I'm stressed, I'm insecure in real life, I enjoy the confidence boost I receive from my amazing reviewers, so kindly piss off. Secondly, if this 'smugness' has anything to do with the You Know You Love Me's... have you ever heard of Gossip Girl? Personally, I <3"I just want a healthy baby. Justin Cole or Cecilia Aine is perfectly fine with me," he replied. I write like this because I like it: "I just want a healthy baby. Justin Cole or Cecilia Aine is perfectly fine with me." He replied. If this were a real book, I'd do it properly. I'm well aware of proper grammar. I'm taking Honors Freshman English at University. I think I know proper grammar to some degree. This is just the case of what V pointed out. My point, in general, is that it's fanfiction. Sending me reviews or PMs complaining about this that and the other thing that are so insignificant is rather upseting. I read a story once where the girl was going to the University of New Jersey as her dream school. Obviously, this was because the author set the story in NJ because of JB. I'm from NJ and found it quite funny that they named the school such because showed a complete lack of research on the authors part. There is no such school in NJ. Our state university is Rutgers Univ. and there is TCNJ: The College of New Jersey. I'm not bashing them, just pointing out that it wasn't a major issue. People make mistakes. Oh! But I am so right on Berklee. There are at least three different schools named Berklee, all spelt differently. I researched which one I wanted and found the proper spelling. So all of those who swore I was wrong, I wasn't. I put a great deal of research into this story. I looked up a pregnant stomach at 14 weeks just to see if Mitchie would be showing yet for the next chapter and I now have a woman's blog saved in my favorites that has pictures of her growing stomach every 1-2 weeks of her pregnancy just so I know I am accurate. I looked up the anti-depressant thing, too.
Okay, I'm rambling and ranting now. 70 chapters of slight aggrivations + lack of sleep= an irritable Bree. Sorry. I just wonder sometimes if those of you who critism the little things in my stories realize how much work goes into it. On top of being a college student, might I add.
Anyway, on a happy note: AINE is almsot here. Remedy is trying to convince me to write a 4th and 5th story, because he doesn't see everything fitting into a third story. But, I'm not sure. I don't think I'm going to. That'd be over kill, I think. A third is over kill, but I can't end the story where it is ending in LKG. Which, by the way, don't worry. You're going to hate me, but... you'll live. Lol. And just to let you know, you won't know what gender the baby is until it's born. Why? Because I haven't decided yet, honestly. But they're names are decided for both. It all depends on how I feel when I write her giving birth. Someitmes I think a daddy's girl will be perfect, others I think a Shane clone would be. And to remind you, AINE= And It Never Ends. Aine, however, is a Celtic Goddess and the supposed Irish form of Anne. Don't get these confused. They are completely coincidental. Remedy made fun of me for not realizing this when I named Cecilia... :( But I love Cecilia Aine better than Cecilia Anne.
Okay, giant ranting ramble done. Hopefully, I didn't offend anyone, but seriously.
Oh, and the other POV's of the story will be done after I finish Aine. I think I'm going to start a completely seperate Naitlyn after ATCR series is done.
I do love and appreciate you all. <3333

Having a story with 3000 reviews hasn't made you smug, as far I can see. But that doesn't mean that all you're getting is praise, and I think you took it way too badly when I pointed out those mistakes. How am I supposed to know you knew that's how it is? Exactly. I have no way of knowing. You don't follow the rules, so I assume you don't know them. It was just con-crit -- there was no need to bitch at me and there was certainly no need to make it such a big deal. I'd understand if you were stressed, but that doesn't make it acceptable.
