Feeling a tad under the weather.

[ornitorinko]

Hello good folks!

Things are a bit complex and rather tricky. I could really use with some cheering up.
Seems strange, that nowadays when we feel down, we post on the internet. I feel incapable of going old school and going out to get drunk.
Who knows what the internet has to offer?

I'm writing a lot recently, mainly psycological horror, it seems to soak up the wounds as alcohol once upon a time used too. But the sponge just keeps rinsing itself and bringing them back to surface.

So, I'll just leave this here.... Just in case.

Writing beats drinking any day. Drinking just masks the feelings for a moment, writing can purge the demons on to the paper and leave you cleansed.

Keep writing. I hope you feel better soon. ((hugs))

 

[ornitorinko]

That's all i do, write, write, write. Maybe someday it might be useful for something.

Thank you for your kind words.

Do you have any of your literature posted anywhere? I like that genre but I have not found much that could get my heart to race. I am writing my first (novella) right now. When I am not writing all I can think about is writing. When I am writing, I am usually thinking about what to write next. If I can't figure out what to write next, I do something mindless (like post on here) and think about what should be written next.

How long have you been writing?

Getting drunk still helps me. It's good to get it out of your system every so often. I don't recommend it every day but it's not so bad on occasion.

Nope, it's all unpublished, written and stored. A huge chunk on paper.
I've been writing all my life. Poetry, short stories, sci-fi, horror, erotica.

Never put it anywhere, self critique - im sure you know how it goes.

Yeah, I'd thought about that, got no-one to drink with, so gets really frustrating once your actually drunk. Tried it plebty of times, thats why I gave up.

I want to post my stuff on here. I just need to give it to my editors to unmuss my terrible mess of words before I even consider doing that. I am 60 google doc pages in now and intend on doing wy more. I understand the self-critique thing, but blah.

So you just write, and store it for your eyes only?

Drink here and chat away. It's not so bad.

Basically.
Every now and again someone will get a glipse at what I've written and I'll get nice words, but overall I find what I write is very expressive of whats inside me, so I wont share.
Irrational fears.

I should stay away from alcohol. I haven't had a drink in a week qnd feel i could drink the whole bottle if I started now. That wouldn't be good, need to stay sober to fqce reality.

I get the irrational fears thing. I am in that boat right now, and I am wondering if it is just me, or is it legitimate. Especially because what I am writing about is not something I'd share with anyone that I know personally, and sharing it with strangers on the internet is daunting. I don't know though. I've never written anything before this, so I don't know if what I am feeling is normal or not. I don't have anyone to talk to about it either, so it's kind of a solo experience. Neat none the less.

Also, don't drink.

 

[ornitorinko]

But there's nothing like the present to step away from fears.]

And no, don't worry I have no intention of drinking.

I haven't thought about that scene in a long time. I forgot he documented everything. It was like when they broke into his apartment they walked into a physical representation of the memories in his head. It was dark, disorganized, obsessive.

 

[ornitorinko]

He played it to a T. Sinister dark film! I doubt it can evee be topped.

You've obviously never seen Toy Story 3.

 

[ornitorinko]

Nope.

 

[ElsieElsewhere]

Nope.

I am kidding, don't worry. Although it was pretty dreary.

What are some other sinister, dark films I can think of... Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance is really great. Grave of the fireflies is more of a 'ruthless somber dark' than a 'sinister dark'. Keane is another one that is 'obscure somber dark', The Machinist is sinister dark.

 

[ornitorinko]

I really liked No Mercy for the Rude. It has its poeticness within the sombre story and a romantic side to all the violence.

I'll watch that tonight and tell you how I like it. You should watch Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. OH or I saw the Devil is another good one.

 

[ornitorinko]

I have no internet as of yet, so it wont be tonight.
Ive seen I saw the devil. Yeah, thats a dark one, great story!!

Yeah, I loved it. I have noticed that Koreans really love their movies to revolve around some sort of vengeance. Even their comedies end up having some sort of revenge element, like The Host.

 

[ornitorinko]

Oh god yes, they are sinister is machiavelic ways. Have you seen Bloody Aria? That was weirdly intense, without of course bringing the master Mr Miike into play, but there we'd be leaving Korea and entering Japan!

I've never seen Bloody Aria. That's another one I am adding to the list.
I hope you're feeling better btw.

 

[ornitorinko]

Add 4bia on there while your at it. Its thai and four short stories turned into a film but very rewarding. Be sure to turn the lights off and leave tje doors open.

Ill give you more after you've seen them, Korean and Japanese films are kind of a speciality.

Yeah, it comes and goes. So resting and preparing for the next round. It will come.

It's a specialty I am familiar with. K I've added that too.. those short story compilations are neat. Like have you ever seen The Three Extremes?
