Okay, so @Celine, still need those CBer quotes and (book quotes?) please! 

We also need inspirational quotes, and book of the month, but I can do those if nobody else wants to?

Advice column... I really don't have any ideas for that, but I'll keep wracking my brain! For LMWAY, maybe what's your favorite April Fool's prank?

CB Quotes:

 

I came. I saw. I made it awkward. 

Hawkstar

The moon is so darn gorgeous tonight <3

It's the second of the Hebrew month (Adar Bet, because it's a leap year, so there's an extra month), so there's almost no moon, save for a really bright sliver at the bottom and it's so glowy and wonderful 

Rainbow

IT'S BACK MY BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL CB-- I've missed y'all so much, and the dear old CB itself!! I'm so glad to see it back!!!!!

*starts going into hysterics over my returned captcha*

Amethyst

does anyone else remember that version of Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold" that she sung with Elmo or did i just have a really obscure childhood

Writing_in_the_dark

i'm yet again caught up in another story idea i'll inevitably never finish send help

but how can i resist it? it's so fun. It's basically a species of bird people (not swans or bluebirds or songbird fairies, this is acutally not ballet-related *gasp*) and fragments of worlds up in the clouds and aerial post offices and uhhh there's the whole issue of "beloved brother is dead or gone but maybe it's even good in a way and that hurts worse" and also "he's the one whose whole life revolved around birds so why am i the one who lived and turned into a bird person" and all sorts of other stuff but heh. i might post some if i get anything written, i'm having a ton of fun thinking about how wings and talons and such would effect worldbuilding. The hardest part is desiging it so it's both functional (even if it's not scientific or anything) and doesn't look weird in art though XD   

BUT SERIOUSLY if anyone has any tips on how to not get caught up in 20 story ideas and daydream them but not actually write any of them and then not write enough when you do write - i need it please please PLEASE -!

okay i now return to Swan Lake bye
