have any of you read that fairy-tale?
    with the three candles in the well, and the deal with the devil? life like a candle, and the choices we make-- flickering, flickering. all that's left of that fairy tale now are images, emotions. i couldn't retell it to you. i've read so many. my mind is bursting with them-- i have to write them down. *sigh* again.

`winter's heart' - a fable of sorts. it could be them, or it could be you, or it could be me. )

i don't know when it became "het" love, to me. and when... when i forgot my initial dreams of just there being stories about "you" and "me". and a prince could love the princess, or he could love a prince. like in those late-19th-century art-deco-ish fairytale book illustrations, by arthur rackham and edmund dulac and kay nielsen and so on.
i still identify with the pale maiden, sitting alone under a tree, singing to her lost love. it wasn't really about the ending, it was about the searching. "i would cross rivers and mountains and endless deserts for you"...
   every now and then, i just need to replenish that, my source of inspiration, the well of my dreams.

so here's me free-associating and going nuts with internal dream-world imagery. turned out well, i think. clickety-click if you wanna )

just recently i was writing self-deprecating-but-not-quite-pathetic stories. i still didn't know where i was going, but at least... at least...that seemed like a good thing. sort of like, i could write the beginnings and leave the endings for someone else. good trick, huh? i don't have to get pathetic, because i refuse to go beyond the first stage. then i started my other hp story, set "after" a relationship fizzled. ick. it's fun to write but it's really sapping me, it seems, in the "true romance" vibe dept. i dunno if this means i should -stop-. hm.

well...
here goes a happyish beauty&the beast ficlet i just wrote. yeay for happy endings, etc etc... )
