So yeah, the story below has a shitton of errors (at the very least by my own standards), but honestly I don't care too much in this particular instance. I wrote it mainly as a way to keep writing after college even when I didn't have too many ideas ready to burst forth from my Knuttel-y writing womb. The idea came about when my sister, who reads (or perhaps read (past tense) now) waaaay too much fanfiction -- mostly (if not only) of Harry Potter and Twilight. Often making fun of these, the idea came across for me to write my own, knowing absolutely nothing about the latter set of books, aside from an extremely basic premise. So naturally I had to interject myself into the story, and just make myself as awesome as possible, I guess. I also had to eventually toss in other pre-made fictional characters, as they both added to my awesomeness and also let the story survive, really -- I mean, I know a fair amount of Harry Potter, but I read the novels once, when I did it backwards right after the 7th one came out in Summer 2007. Besides, how many times are you going to see a character from Moby-Dick in a fan fiction?
All of that being said, I originally finished writing this sometime last summer. I put it up cos it kinda fit the theme I was going for -- random ass ideas coming to fruition. I chopped it up since it was long (I think it's around 30 pages double spaced) and finally gave it a title (of which I am only partially satisfied, but I guess it's finally done) right before posting.
I guess this means that more of this kind of stuff will continue to get posted, though I think I will reserve chopping only for the longer pieces. I'll also try to put something new up before I dig again into my Knuttel-y archives. This is supposed to encourage me to write more damnit, not reflect on how awesome I am.
