Hi Locket readers,
I know for a while I wasn't updating most my stories, so I didn't want to leave you hanging. I am still heavily working on the update. It's taking a while because this is a long one. Also it has quite a few historical elements for the story itself and American history. So I'm making sure I'm accurate on all that. There will be a lot of NH parts. There will be the introduction of new characters, or characters talked about before but never actually in the story until now.
The story itself is nearing soon a crucial point that will tie together so many points, reveal some new interesting things, and of course lots of drama, lol.
I originally had this chapter pretty much done months ago and almost posted it then. I'm glad I held off though because time to go back and work on it has allowed me to develop it.
Thanks for your patience. Hopefully in the next few days I'll be back with an update.
Hugs around...
Okay back to writing... |

I'm posting just because ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) paradiseblue posted at her LJ that she's excited about the 7:09 episode promo for OTH so now I'm wondering what's going to happen with just a little less than an hour for the new episode to start and then the promo of course. Hee...weird, but now I want to see the promo. Oh well, I will have to wait...
So just wanted to respond to your post Diane without actually responding to your post at your LJ because I don't want to be spoiled. (Insert goof smilie for me.)
Less than an hour...yay!
And Happy end of the day Monday everyone!
More later when I found out what I get to be excited about...
ETA: Okay, now I saw the episode. I thought it was a good one! And the next one looks pretty great too, Haley singing, yay, and Dan's back. I just love seeing Dan Nathan scenes lol, so I'm looking forward to it all. Oh and Haley looks pretty, love the hat and everything!

First of all, how lovely that song ends. Okay, a lot from this episode. Can James always direct? I just love all the emotion that seems to come through his directing. Beautifully written too, by Mark, right? Well done.

Hey you guys, hope everyone's having a great weekend. Okay I saw the promo for the next episode of OTH, actually a cap of it first. And I got inspired. I wrote a pre extender for Nathan mainly, his relationship with his father. Of course Haley and Jamie are in it...and another missed family member. But this is all Nathan's POV on his dad and what's to come. I'll leave it at that because I know some don't watch promo's. It's not a spoilery story at all. It is based though on this promo and James Lafferty's comments about Nathan's relationship with Dan.
If you're interested in reading, here's where to find it:

Hi! Okay, I just posted a season 7 one parter Like a Dream at these two places: http://marawritings.yuku.com/topic/540
http://www.therivercourt.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5168
Yes, the last episode was inspiring. You go NH!
paradiseblueI swear I'm not trying to copycat you, lol. I just realized you posted one too...yay! But get this, we both used a form of the word dream in our titles?! Too cool. In different ways I'm sure, but that's funny. Was it something in the episode? lol It came to me from Haley's metaphor simile thing. That kind of cracked me up. But it's weird what that inspired. I wasn't even planning on writing anything, but here we go. Hope people like it.
Locket readers, should be an update in about a week or two. I am loving writing this story right now! Young NH back in the olden days with puppy love...ah...too fun! It's like writing them in high school again but with a historical twist.
Hope everyone's doing well!
Just say yes to David...OTH I will not give up! |

Oh my gosh this show is just getting better! Tonight's episode was on fire! It had everything I love about this show, the relationships, the humor, the so called bad people, lol, the drama, and of course...all the great music! Wow, I'm really getting into this show. I love the progression too of the whole Glee Club, how they're getting better each time at performing. This show simply rocks. |

Okay, of all the newcomers to OTH this season, I love David. He's the most real, the best acting, and just...he is so strong in scenes with Nathan and Haley, Jamie etc...
Quinn to me is just too weak and doesn't feel like a James really. I'm not seeing it. I don't feel for her. I think it's ridiculous she gave Jamie a bowl of milk and Oreos and she seems to be running away from everything.
But when David hugged Jamie and talked to Nathan, no matter where this storyline goes, I want more of him. That is one of the best most natural characters this show has had in a while, acted well and everything. This guy can act so good and make it look like he's known the other characters on the show for a long time. It's almost like having someone like Keith back or Jake. He's a keeper. I am so excited when he is on the screen, if you couldn't tell already, lol.
NH: Better tonight definitely. The scenes were longer so that's great. I just hope the emphasis stays on them. I don't want to get too excited because we could have another episode where once again they get the short cut scenes. I'm hoping this is a trend for the rest of the season. The storyline is kind of weak and weird, but it's getting more interesting in some ways and the scenes where NH were really there for each other were so nice.
I like seeing Nathan's growth too, caring about David and Quinn, realizing why Haley has doubts, etc. He's grown big time. And I love that Haley is still such a figter for what is right. That's what I'm probably not enjoying with Quinn. She feels weak, just telling David she can't be with him and then hiding out with Clay. Haley is so opposite that because she hides sometimes yeah, but when her family needs her, she's always there. And what I've always loved about Haley and Nathan, is they fight for marriage. They are so strong about family and love, protecting Jamie etc. Seeing that again tonight, was so nice.
On that note, Jackson rocked it with the vulnerable scenes. I know everyone says he looks more like Lucas, but to me it was like watching a young Nathan, that look on his face when he saw his parents arguing. I could just imagine that was Nathan when Deb and Dan would fight. The difference is of course, Jamie has parents who love him and love each other always. Your heart went out to him though when he wanted Haley to stay with him and all...just excellent scenes from Jackson.
One last David note, lol. I may have missed some, or maybe this was new, the hint that somebody slept with somebody else in their marriage, but whatever happens with that I hope they find a way to keep David on. I know he wasn't in the initial ads but of all these newbies, to me he's the best. |

| |  discontent | ] |
Geesh, I don't know. It's kind of sad I think when I enjoy the show for everyone other than NH. I even like Alex now, lol. Really, I think the actress is funny. And I liked seeing Millie be treated nicely. The music was great too. I'm on the fence with Quinn. I think the actress lacks a little.
But tell me, are Nathan and Clay joined at the hip? lol...some of the time I swear.
And the way this episode ended just totally ticked me off. I don't want to go through another story of if Nathan was with someone or whatever. I don't care about it because in the meantime we barely get conversations and no physical affection. Brooke and Julian, they're like newlyweds, but NH they might as well be near separated. My gosh...can they at least hold hands? It's just so obvious how the writing team don't like writing them as a strong couple. They have such a hard time putting them in those kinds of scenes.
I guess maybe when this is all done we'll get affectionate NH, but can I say too little too late? Because right now it is just poor storytelling. Give them no drama and we have loving scenes that do little to add to the storyline. Use NH as filler basically. Give them drama, and these two can't even relate. Nathan was with Clay in more scenes tonight. When I saw them at TRIC I was thinking, wow...they're even at TRIC togethter. lol, it was hillarious until I noticed Haley sitting next to him finally.
I enjoyed the Nathan Jamie talk...as short it was, but okay, but...what they're doing with NH now is uninspiring. The rest of the show, every scene beyond NH, was pretty much better. I'm not even afraid of the possibility of a cheating storyline, since it's very doubtful this will come to that. Hopefully I'm right to feel that way, but even the Nathan Haley talk where she tells him they're together in this...for some reason this storyline doesn't even feel like it's about NH. It's more about us getting pissed that there's some girl getting in the way of them. That last scene, though I loved Haley punching her...sorry...was horrible. The way they wanted to shock us, that just was awful. Think about it. The focus is not on NH. It's on the whole problem. It's the shock value. And that is so...
Uninspiring. |

Some of my annoyance with this season's lack of NH, except for silent or cut moments of two words maybe, helped me decide to write a one piece. Mark and OTH, I don't get it. Why is it that when you give this couple drama you never let it play out, huh? And yet we got the whole love story in one episode of Dan and Rachel...ah my heart is a flutter.
Okay, enough saracasm. Anyway, the one piece is over at RC and I'll post it at my board and at FF.net eventually. Hope you enjoy.
Feel free to gripe about or compliment the show all you want. I always love discussing. |

Thanks so much to those of you who responded to my last comment here and elsewhere, showing your support. I appreciate it so much! I guess we all go through those vulnerable moments. I was having one and it just feels good to know that the creative thing you love to do is appreciated. So thank you. And I will continue my updates and posts of my stories regularly. It's just so nice to know people are reading. Thanks and hugs! You're the best!
TV shows:
I'm enjoying TV lately which isn't always true, lol.
Glee: Oh so funny and quirky and I love music and singing so yay! This is just an awesome original show that I'm enjoying so much.
Merlin: Was on this summer and I'm not sure if it's on this fall, but I was able to order the season 1 set (unofficial, but well made) and I just loved this show. It's such a great take on all the King Arthur story. Merlin and Arthur have a kind of brother type relationship that I enjoy. And I think I'm really liking the hints of Arthur and Guinevere, especially that they made both of them a little different than maybe they seem in the original classical sense.
One Tree Hill: new season and so far I'm pretty much liking what we're getting. I'd like to see NH a little more in scenes together, but hopefully that's coming. I'm enjoying the new additions of Clay and Quinn. I like Clay Nathan scenes, kind of like Nathan Luke scenes. And it is so nice to see Haley with a sister who supports her completely.
The Philanthropist: Is this going to come back? Maybe next summer. I hope it wasn't cancelled. I loved this show!
FlashForward: Whoa! Save the best for last...hah...maybe. Anyway, since the X files this is the most exciting kind of alternative show I've seen in a while. I am so intrigued. That premiere was just full of mystery and scary fun for a viewer. The scenes were so well done and I love that we're getting hints and supposed to put them together to figure out what's going on. This show has me hooked already. Awesome. I
What shows are you guys watching?
Hugs around. Have a great Sunday!

| WTWC and Locket Preview |
[Aug. 17th, 2009|12:48 am] |
Okay, this is just a preview of what's to come in WTWC. That's the one I'm working on currently. And a pre-preview for The Locket. I'm not currently working on it. That update will be a little later. But when I posted the last one I also wrote about half the next chapter. So a preview of each per a reader's question of what I was working on. lol, ask, and I provide previews.
WTWC readers, get ready for a twist that I am loving writing and think will make the story stronger. The last couple of ones were very dramatic and sad really. Now get ready for the more jaded qualities actually of a lot of characters. Everyone's going to show a bit of their dark side. All the adults are dealing with the teens having a sort of lack of trust for them. Meanwhile at Tree Hill High, spirit week is coming belatedly for the year, and with it will be a lot of ...flareups for the teens. Yes relationships were building nicely, but the fallout of the secret kept from Nathan is going to mess with everyone's harmony. As for the flashbacks of the last chapter, I may conclude that a little early because I'm ready to share what I'm currently writing, the Sunday after Nathan takes off.

It's been a long time since an update which I apologize for, but if you're still reading, I just updated Captivated at the RC and my personal board, and have the next chapter written, ready to be edited too. I loved returning to this story, all the adventure and everything. It's a fun one for me and an idea I'm so glad I was given.
Enjoy and have a great weekend everyone! |

Hi,
Hope everyone's enjoying their summer. I just wanted to let you know that an update for Captivated should be coming soon. I'm always a chapter ahead with this story because each update comes with a preview of the next chapter. I should be posting soon since the chapter I'm posting is already completed, and the one to come, is nearly completed.
So, Captivated will be my next update. I'll let you guys know when it's up. It's fun to write it now because it has such a summery feel and I love writing NH bickering in between lusting for each other or whatever, lol. And now I'm writing more adventure parts for it and those are tons of fun. |

Hey,
Anyone interested in the new NBC series The Philanthropist? I keep seeing advertisements for it and to me it looks really cool. I love that Neve Campbell is going to be part of it because she's one of my favorites after Party of Five. And the whole premise sounds like it's going to be good TV. I'm looking forward to it and just had to comment.
Hope everyone's week is off to a great start!
