Round 25, Hour 22

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Since I no longer have maniacal laughter, I've decided that, in the spirit of everything_rush, everything shall now be maniacal! This is Maniacal Hour 22! How is your maniacal fic coming? Any maniacal words to report?

As for me, I really have to do the maniacal dishes, but I'm putting it off in favor of working on my maniacal fanvid, and surfing the maniacal internet. I might have a maniacal snack soon, with some maniacal tea. And I'm hoping to work on my maniacal WIP a little later, assuming it doesn't maniacally explode on me.

Well I'm listening to a new music podcast and knitting, they were playing a bit of dubstep at the end there so I was knitting at ludicrous speed so I reckon that probably counts as maniacal...?

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Oooh, maniacal knitting! That should qualify for an award or something. :D

I have (in addition to a (stolen) maniacal laughter) a maniacally cool subconscious. I decided to make sure about a chapter title I was playing with and it turned out to be even more fitting than I realised.

Now I need to fight the urge to name the entire story after it. Because then I'll be stuck with a chapter without a title.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Well, I always suspected that your subconscious was maniacal. After all, your conscious is . . . *g*

Personally, I'd rather have an awesome story title than an awesome chapter title. Some people don't even notice chapter titles, after all. But if you already have a good story title, I'd see why you'd want to keep this one for the chapter.

[pitry.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It's such a dilemma! For one thing, while I get the chapter title, most people won't - it's a reference to something in Hebrew. So it means a lot to me and nothing to everyone else :D

Also, it's only one aspect of the story - I mean, yeah, the most important aspect of the story, but still, just one.

Ah, decisions, decisions. Maniacal decisions, even.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Is your target audience for the fic likely to get the reference? If not, then I'd stick with using it for the chapter instead of making it the title of the whole story.

Or else you could require everyone to take a Hebrew lesson before reading your fic, but that might not be too pragmatic. We're not all as great with languages as you are.

[pitry.livejournal.com]

Lol, it would require not just Hebrew lessons but a Modern Israeli Society crash course. Yeah, I think I'll stick with it for the chapter, lol.

(My target audience is Random People on the internet, most of them would have no clue...)

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Yes, unfortunately, a lot of Random People on the Internet have no clue. I think your decision is a good one. : )

Appropriate icon is appropriate!

I've been lost in making manical icons. Hope to turn to manical fic soon.

Re: Appropriate icon is appropriate!

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Yay for maniacal icons! Those are the BEST. Good luck with the maniacal fic!

200 words, like that! *snap* :D It's midnight and the upstairs neighbors are assembling furniture or something else as crazy. Good thing I wanted to stay up and write anyway!

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Whoo hoo for the easy words! And your neighbors sound appropriately maniacal for the hour. Hopefully they'll be done by the time you want to go to sleep, though.

Good morning! I've had my maniacal antibiotics, maniacal painkillers and my maniacal breakfast. Now I'm trying to decided whether or not I'd be up to some maniacal writing :D

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Good maniacal morning! It sounds like you've had a great maniacal start to the maniacal day. I hope you're feeling better today, and manage to get in some maniacal writing! Or if you want to take it easy and stick with regular writing, that's okay, too. :D

[welfycat.livejournal.com]

I just took a maniacal shower, followed by some maniacal cold medicine, and soon some maniacal food. Next up, some maniacal outlining, maybe.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Those are great maniacal accomplishments, well done! Best of luck with the maniacal outlining. I hope you get some good maniacal plotbunnies!

I am maniacally overdue for my maniacal bed, and now I have miraculously recovered my maniacal sonic screwdriver in astonishingly random circumstances, I can leave the maniacal internets until the maniacal morning.

I don't think I could honestly say my icons were maniacal, though. I am, so that probably counts.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Congrats on the non-maniacal icons, that sound like they were at least made maniacally, so that counts! Pleasant maniacal dreams!

As for the sonic screwdriver, that is a truly random and lucky coincidence.

[thisbluespirit]

Oh, yes, I promise I made them maniacally! It was all: bwa ha ha, so you think you can hide that David Collings's hair is too awesomely red for a Roman, just you wait till I get my colouring layers in there, take that Julius Caesar! BWA HA HA- Hmm. That didn't really work out so well... :-)

There was Vila, and Silver, light-bulbs, and probably an evil giraffe and a ninja penguin. I'm asking no questions and telling no tails tales. I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT YOUR VAULT AND THE LAUGHTER AND HOSTAGES YOU KEEP IN THERE.
