With Desolation only a few days away, I am still hard at work on the third and final Demon Road book.
From the beginning, I wanted these books to be as streamlined as possible — I wanted them short and punchy. Now, I completely failed with Demon Road, as it was a pretty big book, and only got slightly better with Desolation, which is shorter, but it looks like I'm finally getting the hang of this with Book 3, which will hopefully be the perfect length.
And the title?

Here here I guess... )
(*hisses, squirmimng* Mrrooow!)
(*continues and grins*)
It's good. Nothing is the best thing i can think of.
(Right ^.^ up to much? How's life?)
(*hisses, batting at Chloe's hand*)
*gives fish to kitty*
(*frowns* wats wrong kitty?)
(Jack! *glomps an kisses*£
(*pounces on the fish!*
*bats at it*)
Life's good i guess. I wouldn't say i am up too much, no. What about you?
(It is stressful but good ^.*
I have Jack to keep me sane)
(*nudges chloe*
(*big kitty eyes* Meow..?)
( oh! i've had a perfectly insane notion for what to do with Con next.... :D I should probably finish the other thing before I do although I have tried everything else out here first )
Right. Sane.
I mean, it is pretty good.
( my idea is good? huh ...I mean its to do with what we were talking about earlier ... ? or did you mean something else entirely )
(I've got to go now... No internet on the club
See ya later)
I meant that for chloe, but sure that as well.
(Never mind
There's Internet here
But it may go)
oh sorry gemma. You can have my deb. Since my deb is literally nothing.
(*purrs and cuddles chloe*
Happy b-day bru)
( deb? :P you've been watching too much :P heh
yes Happiest of the days of birth to thy, Even though I already msgd you on fb )
Chloe says sorry, lost internet
yeah, it seems like it, i didn't even notice and it couldn't have been a mistake, "b" and "d" aren't exactly close to each other. I am on episode 7. IT's been 7 fucking hours XD
(only "6?" more :P
I feel incredibly happy right now :D )
Quick question:
Since when did depression become a competition and on what grounds does a person win, by length of time they've been suffering or the severity of their suffering.
Just wondering...
Why?
dun think anyone needs that shit right now.
( correction WAS incredibly happy )
Only asking because I caught up reading what went on last night so was just wondering.
uh-huh. Sure you were
I am! I was wondering cause it sounded like a competition.
Did it now?
(Fera be nice she was asking an honest question.
“There’s no such thing as winning or losing. There is won and there is lost, there is victory and defeat. There are absolutes. Everything in between is still left to fight for."
Depression is won when depression is overcome, whether that be by eradicating it or reaching a point where you can live with it and function with it.)
Bullshit. Nothing was honest about that. Now, one of us will back up, and it will not be me.
*sighs* Maybe here.
(*sighs* Allow me to change my phrasing.
Fera you are free to argue your point but please do it in a civil manner.)
@Fera: You're the one causing an argument here, I do believe.
Personally I liked Em's point (LOL "point" autocorrected to "opium." XD)
^meaning, if your aim to to not start an argument, then erm. I wasn't trying to be blameful.
I never said my aim was to not start an argument. Just not about that topic *smirks* ah well.
Btw trust me, that was still very much within the boundaries of civil.
What's wrong with the topic??
Like you don't know.
I'm being genuine here. What's wrong with the topic?
Why can't we talk about it?
Personally for me, depression is so debelitating that it takes a lot for me even to go and have breakfast or play a little bit of Minecraft with my son or even brush my teeth. And I've been living with this shit since I was 18!
But to have it being spoken about like a competition: 'oh you get so much attention' 'oh you shouldn't be depressed right now when good things are happening' 'why aren't I getting any attention'
That's insulting.
I've been on this blog nearly 5 years and during my really active time, I have never known this blog to turn their backs on me or anyone else if asked for help.
So I asked that question, for honest opinions, for people to sit and think that we're all going out the same way we came: alone and probably pissing ourselves so why should we be alone during our lives as well.
Yes I understand human emotions are dicks and get in the way. But everyone feels them, therefore everyone should be sympathetic to how everyone is feeling. So as far as I am concerned, helping is always the best solution even if it's not accepted.
I dunno, maybe it's just me getting older and wishing the world would learn from when I was a teenager.
Oh and by the way, I'm used to that attitude Fera, I have a 5 year old who thinks he's 15 and a 20 year old sister so it doesn't bother me. Try speaking honestly instead of snotty and maybe you'd get somewhere.
"Quick question:
Since when did depression become a competition and on what grounds does a person win, by length of time they've been suffering or the severity of their suffering.
Just wondering..."
That's not exactly a genuine way of asking a question. I know your intentions.
and well i don't know about you, but nobody else needs to talk about that right now. Also, you asked a rhetorical question. Not really an answer to that, is there? I've made myself clear. Please, I am genuinely asking you to not test my patience.
(For decks sale FERA
Nothing's wron with asking
I know em is a good person and it was an honest question )
*hugs Em*
(Oh, and tell Bru happy birthday )
*hugs Star back.*
Aww thanks Star but what's that for?? Lol
And okay Mr. Tough Guy, I'll lay off you.
@Em: General sign of support?
People let their emotions cloud their judgments too much.
how was "Since when did depression become a competition and on what grounds does a person win, by length of time they've been suffering or the severity of their suffering." an honest question? How is anyone supposed to answer that? It was obviously just a smuggish way of saying "so i read the argument and I wanna continue". And i told her to back off in the same smuggish manner. I don't see a problem with that.
Wise choice on your behalf, emerald.
(It seemed like that, no offence to any party involved but it may looked as if it was a competition...
By gaining an understanding, people may learn from what happened and look it from a better perspective )
I asked it for an honest answer because people still do have shitty opinions about depression.
I asked it to get an honest answer, let's call it a social experiment even if you want to be technical about it.
You wanted an argument to start. You didn't get an argument because it was a genuine question.
I've met shitty people with shitty opinions about depression, my own family included and after what happened yesterday, it seems that even people that I call my peers have shitty opinions about it so I was interested to genuinely see where everyone stood.
Ah Star, you're so cute! Thank you x
You can keep lying, you can hide your initial reasons-you may even lie to yourself, but you're not fooling me, you never will, nobody has ever been able to do that.
Also, how can you call people shitty and expect a non black and white perspective on the topic?
(Em was asking a genuine question
YOU didn't need to turn it into this
I don't know Em well but I can tell she's a good person with no ill intent )
(" but you're not fooling me, you never will, nobody has ever been able to do that"
Oh I highly doubt that.)
(put something in my name? "She was not, and...how can you say that she has no ill intent, when even you said it yourself...you don't know much about her." and say that it was me who told you to say this. -Frank his internets seems to not let him comment rn )
(For the time Em has been here I can say she is genuine and nice
I just haven't spoken to her but I've observed )
I can't comment.
(I've had enough
Nos da )
Nos da, Chloe.
*is not really here, I'm afraid*
Okay you know what maybe Em does have ill intent. But maybe I'm a serial rapist and I keep kidnapped children in my basement. If Em hasn't given anyone a reason to believe she has ill intent then I do believe she should be treated as innocent until proven guilty.
(*starts planning out the logistics of how I would do that. I would have to get them in without anyone noticing. A secret tunnel into my basement would work, but be impractical. Tie them up and gag them, stick them in big cardboard boxes, drive up the cardboard boxes up to my house in a van and then carry the cardboard boxes into my house and down into the basement (so no one would see through the windiws) before getting the children out? Probably best to transport cardboard boxes full of food and things this way too, both go increase the number of boxes so as not to look suspicious and to be able to buy food for the children without people getting suspicious about the amount I was buying . . . would obviously have to kidnap the children from far away from where I lived, so would probably buy food when I kidnapped the children as opposed to buying locally. Hmm . . .*)
(*and if I needed to get rid of the kids at any point I could dump them in a cardboard box in the middle of nowhere. Yeah. But what if nobody found them and they starved to death?
Well presumably if I was kidnapping them I wouldn't care about that, but hmm. Tie them up loosely so they would be able to get free after I'd left them?*)
(I'd like to point out for Star's sake I have met her and she isn't in fact a serial rapist who keeps kidnapped children in her basement, at least not that I know of, and if she is then I don't know whether to be glad I wasn't one of her victims or offended that I wasn't good enough.
Imma say glad.)
( thats exactly what someone who is staying in her basement would say! )
Then again, "innocent until proven guilty" is really "guilty until proven innocent" according my brother and pretty much all the inmates he met
(If I was in the basement of a kidnapped/rapist and had access to people online I don't think I'd be defending them so much as posting their address and begging for help)
( unless you had a sharp object towards you twlling you to not post anything bad... or maybe stockholm syndrome )
Oh, if I were to do this I wouldn't let Jai have Internet access, and she's too old, anyway. I'd kidnap kids small enough to fit in cardboard boxes I could carry into my house.
But flattered, Jai. I wouldn't kidnap people I cared about. :)
^Be
( see she has a plan, I'm 100% certain star is a mass child rapist cerial killer thinga mabob )
(xD Okay, I'm flattered. Thank you for not kidnapping me.
Okay now we're on the subject if Star WERE to commit a crime what would it be? I mean she has very good, strong morals.
Although I can see her and her friends kidnapping a child together..)
(I can't really see Star as a rapist, for many reasons, one being motive. I mean as far as I know she's asexual and not comfortable with hugs unless warned she's being hugged, I don't think she'd have motive. And she's not sadistic so she wouldn't really do it for that reason soooo..)
(This got weird, maybe we need a new subject.)
(I know what i'd be
take a gander :P )
(I do not know nor do I wish to.
Soooooo.. uh.. conversation..)
*appears*
For some starange reason, I'm getting into a really bad sleep pattern/habit...
Recently, my work is during the lunch hours, so I start writing in the afternoon to late night. Then I have to wake up early and I'm still tired, but there's sometimes a one or two hour break between my morning schedule and lunch work, so I use that to take a nap...
I have a really bad sleep pattern. :/
Hello, if anyone's on. I feel like I haven't properly commented in a while.
*just notices*
Starange? Is that actually a word?
(Did someone call for a conservationist? Cause if so I'll see if I can find one somewhere...)
*waves*
Hi Blake. :)
Also, hi Jai and Keiron if you guys are still around.
My wifi's weak, so wbd.
(Hey guys.
I msd, debating if I should be sleeping and wondering how within a week I got into staying up past midnight.)
(Ah you'll be alright Jai, I haven't slept in two days and look at me! I'm fiiiiiine.)
Okay, Jai.
/Not sleeping/ is bad, but sleeping late isn't too bad as long as you don't do it too often.
Then there's me, but I actually went to bed earlier than usual last night, which is why I'm not taking my usual nap right now.
Meep. But it stinks that I live halfway across the world from most of you, because during the times I'm free, everyone else is sleeping..
(I get that feel ^)
Really? What time is it for you, Blake?
(*cuddles lav* I sowwy :/
But I should sleep..)
(Nearing 8:30 at the moment, I am an east coast Ameriminion.)
(PM, of course.)
*cuddles Jai back*
It's okay. You needs it. :)
@Blake: huh. That's three hours ahead of the west coast.
*makes a mental note to remember that*
Cause I forget sometimes. Plus Day Light Savings confuses me.
(I'm on my way home today )
(I'm sorry to hear that Gem...)
*looks sympathetic towards Gemma's dad* He sounds like he's in a really bad situation . . .
( higher rank = better ?
3<1
or 1<3
because if 3 is better than one that's bulll )
(as in thats bull that he's getting paid less... just incase you didn't get that, although ti's you so you probably did :P <3 )
( yeh that's utter crap )
@Gemma: :( :(
(*cant be by brother any longer*
*cant stand it *)
(Okay guys Jaimie needs your advice!)
( ok Jaimie shoot....
Chloe, correct me if I'm wrong... you're sister? )
@Chloe: :/ :/ *hugs*
@Jaimie: Yes?
(Wait, it might be okay.)
(Go on Jai
Yes...? I am sister
I have another sister who's birthday is tomorrow)
(*hugs starry *)
(I think it's okay now)
I can comment again i think. Not that that's necessarily a good thing.
Jai, wanna continue the rp in a bit?
(Sure Jacko :)
(Jaaaack! *glomps*)
Alrighty, can't remember where we were....
*is glomped* Chloe
*!!!!!
(Hey Chloe and Fera and Star and Jacko.
Chloe, rp?
Jacko, I just remember being confused.)
Sorta here. Sorta not.
(Didn't you want to rp the other day Jack? Can I join in? )
Hey star
I'm often confused...
(I'd love to rp Jai, where were we?)
Sure you can
(The dude was confusing Wolf)
(Thanks, where were you?)
(Clocky was at the changing rooms and Mark had just walked out of them Chloe.)
No thanks, you know I don't like being thanked
Hehe, the confusion had me confused
Um... Just in the bar I think
(The confusion confused me too..)
I'm confused so often that autocorrect suggests "confused" to me right after "*looks" and my friends laugh at me for being so often confused.
In fairness to myself though, my friends are fucking confusion. They keep saying things and not meaning them, and somehow I'm expected to know when they mean it and when they don't and if I think they're being serious when they say something I get laughed at. Meh.
Confusion is often confusing
(How about...)
