Notes

I can't stop writing!

I have a non-fanfiction piece in the works, which can be read and beta'd at Betabooks with the link below. It's called Little Red's Musical Murder Mystery, and I would appreciate it if you gave it a go. Just remove the spaces

Imagine a girl. She's young, fifteen almost sixteen. She's not short, but also not tall. Her skin is fair, half sunburned. Her face is freckled and her eyes are a mix of blue-grey-green, grey being the predominant colour. She's short-sighted, and owns a pair of glasses she rarely wears in the house. Her hair is blonde, shoulder length and curling at the tips. Short wisps halo her head. This girl is the author.

Hi. I live in Australia, in the state of Victoria, in the city of Melbourne. I go to a good school, and am in year 11 this year (2020). I'm also scared.

The state of Victoria, is burning. A quarter is in an emergency state, all residents advised to evacuate. Fortunately Melbourne isn't in the zone. The reason is that bushfires are spreading. Australia is known for being dangerous - the internet is full of jokes about the spiders, snakes, crocodiles etc. But the most dangerous things right now are the fires.

They started in early spring, an unheard of thing. The fires have only ever started in the heat of summer before, however parts of Australia have recently been (and may still be) in an extended drought. The current fires are severe. This morning, the haze from the smoke cloaked the city, turning the dark towers pale blue-grey against the sky. Anything more than fifty metres away is pale and hazy.

The fires are spread across the state. They're the main topic of the news. Tomorrow is predicted to be a really bad day weather-wise for the fires.

There is nothing I can do about this, and I'm scared.

This is a courtesy notice to let you know that until this situation is resolved, there is a high possibility that I will not update.

I don't have to share my work. I don't have to write. If you're going to get upset about this, fine. But maybe look up the situation.

This is to let you know that I don't feel like writing currently, much less sharing my work to people whom I don't know, nor have any interaction with. I rarely even show my family.

This is also to let you know that as I move into VCE in years 11 and 12, and exams come up, I will be more unlikely to write fiction much less update any of my stories.

I have no interaction with any of you, other than the occasional email that one of my stories has been followed or favourited. They're great and all, but I don't know what it is that you like about my writing, what you want to see more of. I don't know how much you like it, how much is common courtesy.

I'm young. I spend a lot of my time on my writing; ideas come and go, and I rarely get a full story. I like putting my stuff out, I want to see what people think. I don't know. I've written twelve stories, I treasure each of the reviews I get. I don't have a beta, I haven't told anyone in my real life that I write fanfiction. It makes me sad that I abandon stories, that I forget what I'm doing with them.

I'm sticking to what I wrote in A Letter. This is not so much an apology, as letting you know that there is a high possibility that nothing new will be going up. This is to let you know what is going on in my life, and what obstacles there are. A big part of it is that my maternal grandparents live right beside a national park, and if the fire spreads that far, they will be in severe danger. Part of it is that the smoke has already spread to the city. Part of it is that the news is horrifying and scary. Footage shows sparks turning into great blazes in seconds, skies red with smoke and flame. Part of it is that my Year 11 subjects are very essay-focused (2 History subjects and Philosophy, with English Literature, Latin and Drama) and require a lot of writing. Part of it is also that VCE will be stressful. Part of it is my own insecurity and fear that my work isn't good enough.

Part of it is my own reasons.

I suppose I'll see you later. Just don't get your hopes up.

And welcome to 2020, the Year of Hindsight.

(Awful pun, I know. Sorry)
