On the subject of your wisdom teeth Mr Clark, i have an idea to help you out. Just hit your head as hard as you can againts the wall and you wont feel the pain of your teeth anymore,




Warning: May contain serious side effects such as:more pain, concusion, head ache. and in some rare cases death.

Hey Mr. Clark

Had some problems too but my dentist said pretty much the same thing. No problems now. Look at it this way: this is the last developmental pain you will experience. After this you'll get to experience the pains associated with getting old and bits of your body breaking and NOT getting better.

Not to get you down or anything....

Well at least I'm not the recipient of some new kind of disease. That's always been my greatest fear, acquiring some unknown illness that will baffle doctors and scientists and since it'll eventually kill me they'll be nice and name it after me.

It is good news, though I can't help but feel slightly disappointed that my dentist wasn't secretly trying to kill me. I would have really enjoyed the scenarios I was working on in my head.

He watches every Hodgetwin video they put up...on ALL their channels. He calls them the Hodge Triplets, and considers himself the 3rd triplet. He's started talking and acting like them now. Every other line out of his mouth "Thaaas some BULLLLLL**** maaayne" or "Gotta make dem gainzzzz". He calls his biceps "gains". When he eats post-workout, he talks to his biceps, "Don't worry gains, I'm feeding you. Daddys gonna feed you, gainz *kisses biceps*".

I've got my first wisdom tooth coming in right now in the back bottom left of my mouth. Every night, after I brush my teeth, I felt this annoying spot back there, like there's gunk I can't get or something. I would brush the heck out of it and get really frustrated and finally leave the darn thing alone. My dentist said that currently it looks like I'll get to keep my wisdom teeth... I hope that doesn't happen to me. You have my pity.

ok dude, this is spam and should be PM'ed to him. This thread is about the fanfic only. I have a root canal, it used to hurl like a mofo but now it doesnt. In the near future it will return and when it does i will be prepared. So Mr_Clark, any exact day for the next chapter?

Much as I expected, the numbing pain in my jaw soon gave way to a rather intense migraine. I can literally feel it pulsing through my skull, tensing the weak tendons in there, trying to get me to stab an ice pick through my eyes just to try and attack it.

Also expected, I took some aspirin and it made me ill, as it always does, and surprising me not in the least, the aspirin didn't do anything aside from that.

Right now I'm a simpering pile of human flesh and bones, moaning pathetically and trying not throw myself out my window into the pavement below just to give myself some sense of peace.

That, and I'm playing Castlevania for the DS, this game is oddly fun, though the goddamn seal drawing thing comes too fast in boss battles, which results in the damned bosses getting resurrected and then coming to kick my arse once again after I just narrowly defeated them.

I'll more than likely post the chapter on Sunday, as I'm still doing a little retooling. Also I doubt I could take 5 hours of PM sending with my head being such a mass of pain and all.

Try some paracetamol if asprin doesn't work. If it's real bad see a medic (phamacist or your doc) about some ibuprofen or some codine. If asprin makes you nauseous you might want to stay away from ibuprofen (similar kind of drug - just more powerful).

Ibuprofen I think was actually designed for dental pain relief.

Hope this helps

Well Master Lucky does outrank me so i cannot say much, but i do not think his idea or rather SwordPhantom's idea of getting more people to join them by spamming every thread will work.

Oh it's no act. If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, consider me shiva..

winning pub quizzes AND driving teachers insane :) they seem to get irratated whena 15 year old knows more about history and explosives than them... not that i blame them...

good pain killers... umm... I'd go with ibruprofen or alcohol... preferably not together mind... but hey, it's your choice... oj.

Listen to TSK he seems to know what he's on about... now where the hell did i leave morrowind?!?!

I am suitably drugged up at the moment. I ended going to my doctor's place yesterday and he supplied me with something he assured me would ease the pain. I can't really say what it is, mostly because I can't remember, not that its some kind of illegal substance or anything, trust me.

Anyways I was watching the Habs and Leafs game (lifetime Montreal fan speaking) and now that the Habs have successfully won once again I am even more pleased.

While I was watching the game I was speaking with a friend on my cell. I was bored so I forced her into a conversation for the entirety of the game. I believe it was during the second period when there was all that goal scoring that my friend asked out of the blue, "So are you ever worried about how hard it is to get a book published?"

At the time I didn't really have a response, mainly because my personal feelings on the matter are long-winded and I was already using up most of my monthly limits for my cell. I figured I'd just pass along the URL to this page and let her read it.

There is a big misconception I'd say, about the problems facing a lot of authors trying to get their writings published. There's a saying amongst many non-proffesional authors that everyone has a novel inside of them. That is most likely, one of the most misconstrued statement around these parts.

Curiously unsatisfied with the idea that being a successful novelist requires the ability to write books that a consistently large number of people are prepared to buy, jaded scribblers search instead for an explanation that will permit them to retreat with their pride and delusions intact.

Cynical of me? Yeah I guess, but it's the truth. How many unsuccessful writers will you hear say things like, "Oh the audience wasn't there for my book." I don't think you'll find too many authors who'll make the statement that people didn't buy their book because it was dull.

The thing is, publisher's and agents are just as human as other people. They are always looking for the 'Next Big Thing'. I assure you that they're sitting there imagining the day that a manuscript lands on their desk that is the next Harry Potter. Both of them. They like to sit behind a wall of professionalism, but truth is stranger than fiction, and its certainly true that they'll take risks to unload good money into bad books, just because they think it's going to be big. Quality not withstanding.

So no, there isn't really this luring behemoth standing in the backgrounds of the writing industry. You could probably say that the industry is too open these days. There's too much medicore crap lining the shelves these days.

Publishers burrow way too much money into bad ideas that look like they have a chance of succeeding in the market and in the process netting them a big pocket of change. This isn't a bad thing necessarily, but they do it so often, that when the big name novel finally does come by, it gets burried and clumped together with these mediocore titles and it doesn't get the exposure it deserves.

Successful novelists can typically say that their success was the product of a series of accidents.

Tom Clancy is a good example. How well do you think his earlier novels would have done if Ronald Reagen hadn't stepped off of Air Force One, flashed that winning smile and held up The Hunt for Red October and grandly declared it to be "a really good yarn"?

These are my own opinions on the industry itself, so don't take them too seriously, but I'd say I'm quite accurate in my proclamation.

So when I say that I don't want to turn in one of my original novels to a publisher until I'm certain it'll be a success, I don't mean just that it will meet the publisher's expectations, or whatever agent I can find, I mean that I want it to exceed everyones expectations, even my own. I don't want to be clumped together with other hopefuls, throwing out their hopeful shot. I wish for my own novel to be a success in its own league.

No, I keep fanfiction in the realm its supposed to exist in. Those foolish enough to try and bring fanfiction into a publisher's office will find themselves fighting an uphill battle that has proven historically to always 100% end in failure. Disillusionment doesn't help anyone.

As for my original works, those haven't gone anywhere. I'm not even going to try and acquire an agent to push them until I'm sure I can say for certain that I'm not going to have 30 rejection letters sitting on my desk at the end of the day.

Hear, hear. I'll drink to that.

It's true that many publishing offices are flooded with bad work these days (I'll be fair: I'm sure one of my works was one of them) and that truly good novelists are those that are unseen until they muster the courage to put a stamp on their enveloppe and send it to a publishing-guy.... Most of the I-Want-To-Be-Like-J.K Rowling-Or-Christopher-Paolini people dump their novels that are basically rip-offs of Harry Potter or Eragon. Because, truly, how old is the idea of a wizard going to a wizarding school?

But then it all comes down to a plot and the writing itself. Some people fail miserably, while others succeed with a smile. If you want to write a book and have it published, you'd better have some good idea's. Nothing seems to be original anymore these days....

This is a pointless post, I know. I actually wanted to drop by to see how the new chapter is coming Mr_Clark.... I guess I'll just have to wait a little longer.
