Thank you, everyone, for all the congrats!

Okay, so the update with 522 is that I'm about at page 500 now. Which is good. I'll definitely be ready to start posting in March. Until then, I've got two more promos to drop off.

522 - Kyle Promo

The songs in this one are "Soon Enough" by The Constantines and "Best Not to Think About It" by Athlete. Both OTH songs! I especially love the second one. Anyway, it was a bit harder for me to locate post-Roswell clips of Nick, so this one probably isn't very good, but I tried.

The last promo will obviously will be the Isabel one. :twisted: I've been waiting to post that one for awhile just to freak you guys out. :lol:

I heart her!
You know what . . . I kind of do, too! And the fun part is that she's about ten-thousand times more screwed up in the sequel than she was in the original!
Earth2Mama wrote:Great song choices - doesn't OTH give out the best kick ass music or what?! I swear, that's one of the main reasons I still watch that show. I *heart* it so!
Yeah, OTH has the best music on TV, in my opinion. I especially liked the music in the first four seasons.
Earth2Mama wrote:When Isabel was being Isabitch, I cringed in horror at what she had done and wished her death - but at the same time I was dying to know what drove her to become this way. She was, to me, the most complex and intriguing character. Much more so than Maxist or Lizbitch.
I think she's definitely the most complex character. That's probably why I enjoyed writing her so much. You might like Max a little more in the sequel. I'm not sure. As for Liz . . . I have a problem when it comes to writing likable Liz. I'm just not good at it. :lol:
Rowedog wrote:I admired April's ability to create someone so evil, but I despised her like no character I've ever come across before in my life.
:lol: That was the goal! I wanted people to either hate her so much they loved her or hate her so much they wanted to reach through their computer screens and kill her.

I think I'll aim for March 1st. :D

Dude, I'm excited to start posting. (Did I really just call you 'dude?' *shakes head in shame*)

:lol: You two are funny.

Okay, so I just noticed something random: What got pruned that made all of our post counts drop so drastically?

The dumpster, huh? Good to know. I don't know how my post count stayed as high as it did. Must've been all those parts to Passion. :lol:

I love that there's discussion in between fics. :lol: Oh man, 522 could spark some serious debate.

You're totally right. Isabel has . . . issues. Like deeply rooted, unavoidable issues.

When I first decided to have her reappear in the fic, I planned on just writing her in as a bitch that everyone would hate. And then as I was writing her, she went to this whole other level of bitchiness. She became . . . unhealthy. And that is so fun to write. So honestly, she was the reason why I decided to do the sequel. I couldn't stop writing that character yet.

Does that mean you are going to explore those issues?
Of course!
Alien_Friend wrote:So does that mean there is going to be lots of Isabel in 522?
Oh, yeah. And some of the things she says/thinks/does are very disturbing.


On a randomly happy note: I've finally written 522 to page 522! I'm very happy. It's like a little mini-milestone in the writing process for this fic. :D

I'll post that promo this weekend. It's my favorite one and probably gives the most material to speculate on.

522 - Isabel Promo



Watch if you dare! :lol:

The songs are "Black Sheep" by Sneaker Pimps and "Closer" by Burn Season. "Closer" is a psycho song.

Well, I've gone on a little writing spree and written the fic to page 585. 60 pages in two weeks . . . not bad. So I'll definitely be ready to post on Monday! I'm excited! :D
