Love + Self-sacrifice + Ambition + Aspiring Writer = ?
Well, I decided to take a fellow blogger’s suggestion and write a page. I have written a few things on myself, but nothing on the blog itself.
This blog is basically a way to put out my works and test myself in other fields in the literary world. I started out writing poetry that really sucked, but I enjoyed putting words on paper to form something. Granted I don’t have my beginning work, but it has helped me start the one thing I’ve enjoyed doing. I then began to refine my poetry to what you see today. To me they seem more like song lyrics then poetry, but I have learned that lyrics are a form of poetry.
In a few weeks will mark the one year anniversary of Sweet Nightmare. Its beginnings were rough. I had started out with different characters and a different path then the one I currently have for it. To tell you the truth some of the names came from watching the country’s weather. It’s location of Eagle Point, Oregon. I have to tell you before I held a slight interest in Oregon. Because of Sweet Nightmare I have a high interest in it. I want to see it some day. Strange, huh?
I have six stories and five of them are currently on hold until further notice. One of my stories, Demonic Kingdom, is sort of a collaborative project between Alexiel, Comet, and I. Alexiel puts a little more effort into participating. I have to say it has been very interesting to write the storyline and involve their characters with mine. Alexiel’s character is harder to deal with then anyone else’s. Strictly because I have to emulate his persona into the character. I’m currently also working on a project of turning Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core into a story form. I thought it would be another interesting way to test myself as a writer. I sometimes write political/economical entries. I try to put a fun twist to them to make them interesting while supplying information to those people who are not interested in the news because of the terms they use and “blah blah boring” format the media puts it in.
My ambitions currently are to graduated college and to have my work publish even put into other medias. I won’t let anything stand in the way of me graduating college. I am in a relationship and I believe that I can be in my relationship and do college at the same time, but I will continue pursuing after the degree. I will continue writing and finish one of my books then hopefully have one of them published. If I don’t then I will continue until I am or just write for the sheer pleasure that I receive from it.
Self-sacrifice and Love…I sacrifice myself for my friends and I love them all. Granted my special someone will have more love than what my friends will ever receive. But I am willing to help my friends in anyway I possibly can. I can’t explain the reasoning in that, but it is something I do.
Another thing the suggestion by a fellow blogger to write this was for the purpose to allow people to write general comments. So you are welcome to leave constructive comments or suggestions on this page. Hope to see you again. Thank you.
By the way, the answer to the equation of “Love + Self-sacrifice + Ambition + Aspiring Writer =” is me.

@Glaize I am quite dedicated to my work because of what I am aiming to make happen in my life. Just at the moment I’ve been having some slow moments so I’m writing something non-fiction to jump start my wrting.
@SanityFound Thank you for dropping by and wishing me luck. I am happy you are glad Glaize told you to drop by. ^_^ Hope to see you around here more.

And by the way I love your blog name very creative !

@enreal Why, thank you. I appreciate your words. I’ve only known the literary world on this level for about a year. I wish you luck as well. I liked the name myself. I have always thought of myself as an escapist due to the fact that I’m always trying to escape the world. I also love fairies so naturally it made sense to me. I guarantee you will see more. I’m not sure what is next, but there will be a new post at least every week if not then I will make up for it. Thank you for stopping by.

Busy busy with the crowds aren’t we? ^_^
That’s great that you’re getting the attention of others in the blogosphere, and doing it way quicker than I did. Took me to learn HOW to blog to start grabbing attention, but you’ve already got word being passed along about this place.
Much congrats and hope to see more unfold in the future.

Yes, I’ve been quite busy with it, Alexiel. Just like you are busy commenting? *chuckles*
I’m not exactly sure how I got discovered. Glaize just happened to stumble upon it and left a comment. I merely took her suggestion with this and had left a comment on hers that I did it. She had posted in her blog about it and here we are. ^_^ I’ve been looking through there blogs and I’m impressed.
Thanks and I hope the same way you do. *smiles*

…I posted about it because I love to read your works :D

Aikou | July 28, 2008 at 11:29 pm
Well that is good to know. I’m interested in one of your entries called “I dare not say…”. It was rather intriguing. I’m rather curious about it.

Oh, by the way, just another of those little notes here ~ I’m promoting the other pages of my blog, especially “On Live Love Whatever” to help you understand the whole concept of my blog.
Ermm…the link is under “4 Corners”, above the big, orange “Love, Joy, Peace” expression. :D *sigh* I guess customizing the sidebar is as close as I can get to personalize my LLW blog, since I can’t afford the CSS upgrade yet. Hehe. Not literally. I just don’t have time to upgrade it right now.
Cheers!

Aikou | August 1, 2008 at 1:02 pm
I’ll check it out ^_^
It would be a waste of money for me to get the CSS upgrade strictly because I don’t know where to begin with that. Who knows maybe I’ll be able to expand into that direction.

Aikou-chan ~ love the new banner! It’s innocently lovely!

glaize | August 11, 2008 at 3:48 am
…although the edges are a bit rough still…guess it would bring a certain charm. But it’s nice :]

Aikou | August 11, 2008 at 3:53 am
Ahaha… My poor attempt at removing an image from its original picture. ^_^; It was hard to do. I have yet to perfect it. By the way the little wolf girl is suppose to be a somewhat ideal image of Aikou Ikirisu, my character in Demonic Kingdom.

glaize | August 11, 2008 at 10:44 pm
Ah, I see. Your DK’s OC ~ heh. I don’t know why but somehow the image stands out from the background so I guess that was the charm I mentioned about earlier on.

Woah there! The new banner is cool! Well, it’s simple but it’s still cool – never expected that. You really are improving, aren’t you? Congrats ~ hugs for you :D I think I’ll just press shift+ctrl for my answer… :P
What? It is creative =D

Aikou | August 19, 2008 at 6:23 pm
^_^ Thanks. I’m still kinda iffy on it. I’m going to play with the design until I get it just right. I’ve learned a few new things. I might test those out and play around with them to see what I can create.
