@kriss& Firouz: EXACTLY!!! It's the same with me! I have it all planned already, but... nothing. And on top of that no time for writing. It's really frustrating!

@kal: Awwww, gosh, I'm so happy you like it!!!! And I agree with you: They didn't really work with the relationship that was forming. I mean, I know that Harry was the main character of the saga, but still... there's just so much missing. Fortunately though this just leaves us the opportunities to write shots like these. ;D
Mwahaha, and so you'd like to be in Hermione's place there? Hah, me, too (well, apart from the having-been-tortured thing ). ;D

Thanx again, dear!

Agree with you. I have written four stories, but none of them finish because of "have no time." I didn't have much time was the reason broke my concentrate and my feeling about what I was writing. And when I came back, I didn't want to continue any more. When I want to finish them, I must read all what I wrote to get back the feeling, but I can only write some pages and start busy again. Sometimes it happens when I just only have the feeling, don't even start writing. *Despondent*

[Doubar]

@ban: Yes, that's just how it is like! When you get busy you lose the feeling the story gave you and when too much time passes, you first need to read all the previous stuff again in order to get back the feeling and not miss on any details you added. But by the time you're done reading you haven't much time left to write, so eventually you give it up again. I guess this is also why for more than three years now I am only writing one shots. You get them finished within a few days. Though, truth be spoken, I even had troubles finishing the last shot I wrote because I had so little time. *sigh*

[Bryn]

I find its very hard for me to sit down and write or even create a graphic. but once I do, I am fully concentrated on the task at hand. and I just can seem to stop writing or creating.

[banmaixanh]

*sigh* Yes, it's annoying feeling when you don't have time to do something you like. I already gave up my story because I didn't have time. And now, I decide that not write something long. I only write when I have time and feeling and not try to finish it. Just write down what lies on my mind that moment. If I cannot finish it but the feeling is died, I will put it aside and start with another. And I found out that it is better than I try to finish a long story I started long time ago and almost forget where I stopped. That is why I have 4 stories, but haven't finished any of them.
However, besides those unfinished things, I also have some little parts are finished. And they are some scenes in my new story, which I only started about three month ago. It is what I take the idea (and some scenes) from my unfinished stories. Of course, it still need to be fix to be better. But I already have the main story (not outline, it was written down) with the opening and the ending I feel satisfy with. Fix it, I will do when I have time. So, don't worry, I'll keep my promise.

alex: Aw, that's way cool! Usually I can only be creative for about 2 hrs. After that time I feel like being empty and must postpone working on till the next day. x)

@ban: Oh, this sounds so familiar! I am just in the same situation! Though I still try to finish what I begun because I hate to leave things unfinished. Thus I have started to write mainly one-shots though I'd really love to work on longer things.
Ooh, but you'll put all the remaining parts together in that story? That's awesome! And sounds great that you only need to fix some things now. I'll be looking forward to that story then!

Yeah, It seems like I was looking for what can be re-use in some things I created but useless. Some of them must be deleted but most of it can be use in my new story, what I need to do is match them up logically. It's so fun when I did it with my new story.
I think it because I only have one idea for everything. The different is the feeling, with each different feeling, I wrote the different part of it. So it's not too difficult to find something I already wrote down to put in my new story.

*clears her throat*
My dear Doubar,

You know that your fanfic inspire me a lot these days.
Your amazing writing style makes me want to picture all the emotions that goes through your stories .
So here we go, this is my little video based on your fanfic "coming home."
I spent hours trying to find the best clips, especially for the cabin's scene. I'm not entirely proud of it, but I hope you'll like it anyway.
Also, I couldn't find anyone saying "It's nice to be back", so I found something else instead...

Anyway, I let you see that vid.
enjoy.




EDIT: of course, YT blocked it in Germany...what a surprise...

[Firouz]

AWESOME vid!
Matched the storyline PERFECTLY!
I LOVED it!
Kahlan, you've done it again!

[banmaixanh]

Agree with Firouz.
@doubar: Oh, I think you did really good job, Doubar. I think only I was haunted by your story. I also wanted to do something with it, but I'm not good enough to create what I imaged. But the opening, with me, you brought my feeling back after long time I had forgotten it. I think you can guess what feeling it was and what is the result of it.

[Doubar]

Kahlan: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!!!! *jumps up and down like a crazy, but hyper excited little kid* You made a vid for 'Coming Home'. Oh gosh, I LOVE you for that one!!!!! And it turned out GREAT if you ask me!!! It's indeed just my story!! Wow!! I didn't think one could capture it in a vid. I mean, I could hardly make a good fanart for it, but this... *is speechless* Really, it's amazing how you could turn it into a fanvid! And I'm SO happy to know that my fics inspire you!!! That's really one of the best things that can happen - that new ideas come from what I made. This is so AWESOME!!!!!!
Now, I only wish I could fav the vid on YT!!!! Grrrrrr, I so hate that our authorities cannot come to terms with YT.
Anyway, thanx again, dear! And of course the link to your vid will go straight to my ff.net profile! ;D

@ban: Awww, that's sweet of you to say! And of course does what I just told Kal hold for you as well! It really is most special to me to know that my works inspire others! This is more than I could have asked for, and I feel truly glad and thankful for it. *hugs* However, I know exactly what you mean. Often enough I, too, am not able to create what I imagine - especially when it comes to vids. x) But guess it was the same feeling that drove me while writing, eh?

[Kahlan]

@firouz&Ban: aww, thank you!

@doubar: thank you so much dear! It means a lot to me that you find it great.
You know, I lack of ideas when it comes to make vids about these two now. that's why I'm always looking for some plot, something that would allow me to create new scene, to bring something new to the show.
That's why I like picturing fanfics like yours or Kriss's ones, because your stories are very unique.
and as I already said, your writing style is really inspiring, and a one-shot is easier to put in a vid ;D
all in all, it was a great pleasure for me make that video, especially the sword scene ;D
and I feel very honoured that you put it on your ff.net profile.

Yes, I must say that it is hard to create a video fit your story and fit what I imagined, but the hardest thing is how to put the emotion you created into the video. How to make the watcher feel it without read the story, and the reader of the story can see the emotion they read in what they watch. It's not easy because the emotion is very deep, specially the sword scenes. None of the clips I found satisfy me, they all can't show that emotion, which I "saw" on Maeve and Sinbad's face when I read your story. In my mind, I saw Maeve stood silently in her cabin looked Sinbad left the cabin. She didn't smile, but something lightened and warmed up her eyes. It's the most beautiful scene and the deepest emotion of the story. I remember that Maeve didn't have that scene. I still don't say about find the music can fit the video and where could I find the sword. What Kahlan did, it's really amazing.

[Doubar]

@kal: Awww, thanks for finding my fics to be unique!!! That really means a lot to me. Haha, but true: a one-shot is easier to adapt than a long fic is. ;D But really, I would have had no idea at all as to how to realize the sword scene in the vid, and it's amazing to me how you could find the matching scenes! Really, putting it on my profile is the least I could have done.

@ban: Aw, I think I know exactly what you mean, dear. I wouldn't be able to put these emotions into a vid myself, which is why I usually use words to express what I imagine them to feel. I sometimes wish I were as talented as Kal and could use another medium than fics (especially as I often encounter troubles finding the right words), but I'm just not as gifted as she is. ;D But, aww, wow, you know that what you described is JUST what I imagined, too? I mean your words about the ending. Because I saw her like this, too! Not directly smiling, but with something in her eyes lighting up again. And I, too, do see Sinbad and Maeve during that scene; know exactly what they'd look like that moment. And reading your words, I am lead to believe that I was able to bring that image across - which is awesome!!!!
Aha, and don't you worry. It always amazes me, too, how Kal does always seem to find fitting scenes. I wouldn't know where to start or where to look for stuff like the sword scene for example either. xD

[Kahlan]

@doubar: Lol, I could say all the same about you. I'll always love making vids, but I so wish I could have your talent to write fanfics. you always go deep on the details, when you describe a feeling, or even a place. I usually skip to dialogues. ;D
and speaking of details, I, too imagined Maeve not smiling but just looking at Sinbad. I looked for such a clip for hours but didn't find anything fitting... That's why I made her leave the cabin first in my vid...because I didn't know how to end it properly. Maeve doesn't have this kind of scene, as Ban said.

PS: the sword scene comes from LOTS.
it's unbelievable how this show can be useful sometimes
Just ask Kriss. ;D
