Ready... Set... LIT!!!

Journal Entry: Sun Feb 10, 2008, 12:59 AM



I'm not doin so hot. My wife has meningitis and I might have to miss work and school. I wouldn't mind missing except that it won't be a break--it'll be the even harder work of keeping a baby and a sick wife happy and healthy.

In happier news...

It's like a chain of lit love. Spread it around. Infect someone you care about! :D

"Sour Cherries," by ~GracelessSanslaGrace is an amazingly chilling story! ^_^

*Tell me about the last story/poem/movie you read/saw that made you cry


1. :iconblargscander: : I live in Ontario, Canada, i like characters with animal attributes, female anatomy, chicken curry rice and music in languages i don't know i dislike people who use others, i hate ignorance and i dislike when i am lazy or lack motivation. my pet peev is i hate it when people spit and smoke cigars. may favourite art styles are styles that focus on bodies and poses.

2. :iconmarchingstitch: : I'm from a little town in Florida called Lakeland. ^_^ Bout 45 minutes east of Tampa and west of Orlando.
LIKES: Goes by: Kristi, M.S., Erin, w/e Tv shows: Law and Order, House, Bones, Passions *faints* Movies: Lady and the Tramp, Lilo and Stitch, The Lion King Books: The Lovely Bones, The Maximum Ride Series. DISLIKES: Mayonase -- eww gross, gooey things -- such as the slime you make in chemistry class outa glue, mean people, silence. PET PEEVES: Feet -- totaly hates feet, ew ugh gross.
, ,
3. :icondhqx: : One of my oldest and dearest friends, ~dhqx is the one who got me hooked on deviantART. Her style is unparalleled; her talent, undeniable; her friendship, of inestimable value.

4. :iconyumelenawawe: : One of my very best dA friends, she is part Shawnee but mostly Irish and one fourth brilliant poet... make that 100% brilliant poet!

5. :iconteh-youngscribe: : Another of my dearest friends from my early days on dA, this guy is probably the kindest guy I know. He's from Sometown, Pennsylvania, and is working through his BA in Awexomeness.

6. :iconredmoon46: : I know everything there is to know about ~redmoon46... *coughs*... *tumbleweed blows by*

7. :iconsilentwhisperofnight: : is an amazing Finnish poet whose experimental style I just can't get enough of. (if only i could finish his request that he made forever ago... maybe then he'd post more often... scratch that. i just checked, and the reason i haven't seen any of his posts recently is because... i... wasn't watching him.... *slaps self in head*.)

8. :icontheresnoeinalli: : Well I started Photography two short years ago when I was thirteen. (now 15) I'm from Oviedo, Florida, but I'd rather you just put Orlando since I live just outside downtown. Likes- Music. Classical and Screamo/Metal in particular. I'm a swimmer...uhhhm. I love school and learning and reading. I'm a total University of Florida fanatic..& politically Im a right leaning moderate. Dislikes- Unoriginality. Druggies. alarm clocks. the squiggly key on computer keyboards. pet peeves- whisteling. fears- failure, needles, falling. art- What about it? haha. I do photography. I've been told I'm a good writer but I find no interest in it besides for assignments. I mostly enjoy candid shots and just shots of the typical florida lifestyle. I shoot stuff that is important to me, not stuff that I think other's will find appealing.

9. :iconsejongkim1979: : I'm a 28 year old Korean solider in the US Army. Currently, I am on my third deployment; once to Afghanistan, twice to Iraq. I like many different types of anime and manga ranging from Love Hina to Full Metal Panic to Saikano. I am hoping to become a game designer and thus have been practicing my writing and drawing. Here is a link to even more things you never wanted to know about me: Sejongkim1979 is a weirdo person

10. :iconlalaland-faerie: : I know she's a sheila from down under, so I'm assuming she likes vegemite... i'm so stereotypical.

11. :iconavalonis: : ~Avalonis's gallery is a rare treat of poetry and photography. I happened upon this Israeli poet by accident, but what a fortuitous accident it was.

12. :iconcutiekidd: : Mystery is her name... but she has an amazing, hilarious "Sexy no Jutsu" series!!

13. :iconshazbar: : My kawaii little kouhai!! show her some dev:+favlove:!

14. :iconstillherelove: : I have no idea who this person is or why she started watching me... enjoy!

The same thing's happening around here; everyone's sick cuz of the weird weather and everything. Hope things get better for you! :>

As for literature...last night I found this story called White Parade--to say the least, I don't think you'll be dissapointed reading it. [link]

Sour Cherries is pretty awesome too; should it be considered flash fiction though? It seemed to cram in so much personality into so few words.
