If TOSOT ever became a movie I'd increase your posts to 100,000 and then throw the biggest party ever planned in the history of mankind's creation - right down to confetti made of shredded 100 dollar bills.

You're probably right...
I haven't actually written the "how to submit" page, though, since I don't know what file uploading site they should use to submit their fanfic. Any suggestions?

UPDATES :thumbsup: [10/22/07]

-I should probably doing my reading assignment for my class that starts in 20 min, but oh well! Nothing's gonna stop me from making this update! -fistpalm-

-First and foremost! I have figured out the solution to my TOSOT problem! As you know, like 2 months have gone by and I've basically written nothing. I thought it was because I was so busy, but then I remembered that I was almost equally as busy in high school and yet still managed to squeeze in 5 or 10 minutes of writing time here and there.

The problem is my approach. Trying to write "all of volume 5" is just too overwhelming, so I don't work on it at all. I need to go back to my old method of writing the story chapter by chapter, as it were. You see, back when I wrote for nick.com I always took this approach, and for 3 fanfics and 4 years or so I had a steady stream of chapters and happy readers. So, I've decided to go back posting individual chapters...the only difference is that I'll be doing it here on IDOJ.

There are several pros and cons to this. On the plus side, you'll have something to read and comment on, which in turn will inspire me to write me. On the negative side, you'll be getting volume 5 "raw", so to speak...largely unedited and completely improvised. I'm not entirely sure what'll happen from chapter to chapter, so you'll all just have to come on this adventure with me! My writing quality might not be as good since I won't have 3 weeks to go over and edit for grammar, aesthetics, and cohesion, but hey...at least you'll have something to read.

Thoughts on this matter will be appreciated! Expect part 1 of chapter 30 soon (it's a big chapter)!

Dude, man. I'm gonna like, get a bunch of my friends together and print out the scriptformat of TOSOT, build a set, AND STEAL MY DAD'S VIDEOCAMERA. It would be AMAZING. <3

I had a similar idea...except mine involved doing a voiceover of the script (you know, like a "book on tape" type thing).

[sunnstar]

YAY, stuff to read! I WOULD like it all at one time, but I'll take what I can get. ^__^

[Littlehomer807]

Well i rly like the idea of releasing the rest of the fic in chapters although it is fun to have the entire volume released at one time too, its fun having multiple chapters of an awsome fic to read then just one right i mean cmon :P

;)

[Alex]

Good to know that TOSOT will finally be worked on...

[sunnstar]

;)

And littlehomer, I didn't understand a WORD of that. LOL.

[sunnstar]

Note to Mara: **flings confetti** has now become my, like, official phrase. I hope you don't mind. XD ;)

[AnDrEa]

mmmm I personally would like to read a complete well done job, so you could maybe do it by chapters and all, but take your time in revising and all, I mean tis is the last installment! the one we all have been waiting for! and it HAS TO BE epic, so Take your time and give us the best you can write, I'm sure it'll be superb!


o:) Andre o:)

[Mara=^.^=]

I'm fine with however you write Mara, as long as you're writing.

oh, btw, I asked miy mom, and she said I could apply for Brown when it gets that time! Oh, I hope I get to go! I'll find you and introduce myself, and everyone will envy us as the only people on IDOJ who have met each other. (I think we'd be the first :huh: )

[Mara=^.^=]

Double LOL. When would you apply? Hopefully within the next 3 years...
