Writer's Block: Novel Ideas

[Error: unknown template qotd]

A grim novelization of a little known Grimm fairy tale.

Oh, which one? The Grimm Brother wrote some gnarly stuff, and so much of it is completely ignored by most people these days.

It's called "The Six Swans." Sometimes, it's Seven and not six, and sometimes it's called "The Wild Swans." Hans Christian Anderson also has a version. I plan to combine elements.

Oh, I like that one! I think I tried to write a novelized version of that when I was 11 or 12 but didn't get very far. <3

There are two that I found, one was a continuation called "The Seventh Swan" and the other is a novel called "Swan Kingdom." but from what I can tell "The Seventh Swan" isn't even in print anymore, and mine will not be a young adult novel, so like I said before, I think I'm safe.

Oh, lots of potential in that one. Good luck. Sounds like lots of fun.

[identity profile] darlingfreak.livejournal.com 2008-11-01 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you, I'm excited. The image that stuck with me was the youngest son being left with a swan's wing for an arm because the last shirt was not complete. That alone has potential.

sounds fantastic!!

Thank you. :-)

Why do you have to rip off someone else's stuff? Why can't you come up with an original idea?

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Why do you have to shit on everyone around you? You do realize the point of fairy tales is to be retold and changed? Are you doing NaNo this year? Why not shut up til you can put up. Try being a friend instead of a wanna-be bitch who comes off as a crybaby toddler who jealous of those who at least TRY? Oh right - you have to be a failure at everything so then you can make excuses about your life. No wonder you are alone. Fuck, you deserve to be until you learn how to be a decent human being.

[identity profile] moondognight.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
This is just so fucking uncool. We aren't friends anymore. Leave your baggage with me in the past where it belongs, or message me if you have the guts. Don't bring this shit into Allison's journal.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
We aren't friends anymore because of your behavior. I told you, when you are ready to grow up, message me again. Just because YOU think you have the right to behave in whatever manner you feel you want to does NOT mean I have to sit back and watch. Understand this - this is Allison's journal, NOT YOURS. If she tells me to quit, I will. Other wise? Tough cookies. If you act like a total bint in public, you will be called on it.

If I have the guts? You are the one wanting to hide behind PM's. I'm saying what you need to hear out in the open. You are the coward, not I. But I always knew that. I suspect you do too.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd say I miss you too just that I don't miss your behavior but I don't think you'd understand that.

[identity profile] moondognight.livejournal.com 2008-11-15 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, actually I do understand.

I still miss you, though.

[identity profile] moondognight.livejournal.com 2008-11-15 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Probably nothing, because you said you would talk to me again when I was better. I'm not better, as you can see.

I should be sending you this through a private message instead of cluttering up Allison's journal.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-15 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Your ball, your court, your choice. You know how to find me.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh and BTW? If you would learn to read, I didn't know it was you until AFTER I made the comment.

Reading. It's a good thing. Makes you look less stupid.

[identity profile] moondognight.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine. I misunderstood.

[identity profile] darlingfreak.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Re-imagining an old concept can be very creative and original. I'm going to enjoy it. :)

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Fuck Allison, where did you find the [livejournal.com profile] threedaterule wanna be? Every comment I've seen from this one has needed a smack in the head - at least she knew enough to pretend to be nice once in a while.

[identity profile] citizenjess.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
LOL it's the same gal, actually.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously?

*headdesk* I should have been able to figure that out!

[identity profile] citizenjess.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
I think she had a shit-fit after being wanked on [livejournal.com profile] customers_suck and deleted the TDR journal; about 3-4 days later, she turned up in Allison's LJ again. Same icons, same bad attitude.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
What happened in customers_suck?

Actually, her attitude is worse. Like I said, she could pretend to be nice before.

[identity profile] citizenjess.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
From what I gathered, she initiated 'homeless wank' on a thread that probably would have gone there anyways, but she definitely helped tip it off. IDK, I'm on like three of those comms and she was suddenly showing up everywhere for about a week, and then all of the sudden her journal got deleted, so I assume it was because of that. I find the 'tude amusing because it no longer affects me, but I'm continuously surprised that Allison puts up with it.

[identity profile] darlingfreak.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
Eh... I'm pretty tolerant. Maybe more than I should be, granted. But, I'm pretty steadfast most of the time. I'll get pissed at a friend. I'll bitch out a friend, but it takes a lot for me to ditch a friend.

[identity profile] citizenjess.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
I think in this particular case, people just decide that it's too much emotional baggage to warrant trying to mollify all the hissy-fits and re-direct the strange and offensive questions 24/7. You've definitely stuck it out for longer than the majority of her ever-shrinking flist, that's for sure.

[identity profile] moondognight.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Honey, she puts up with you, and you are way, way worse.

You are a walking, breathing, talking shit fit. So don't even go there.

Just because you found someone desperate enough to fuck you (double ew) doesn't make you any less fucked up than you imagine me to be. So just piss off.

[identity profile] darlingfreak.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Quit talking trash in my journal please.

[identity profile] citizenjess.livejournal.com 2008-11-14 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you, my legs were up over my head. ;)

Also, feel free to write slanderous flocked entries about me in your personal LJ, but please refrain from doing it here. Allison doesn't need her inbox filled up with your latent bitterness that other people have lives/significant others.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Ah I see.

I removed myself a few weeks ago, I just couldn't take it anymore. Allison earns my respect more and more that she does.

*Blows kiss*

You know I can't wait to see this.

[identity profile] komikbookgeek.livejournal.com 2008-11-02 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Much welcome!
