EDIT:// I may also create a fictional town, but I'm completely clueless as to US regions and states, I'd be happy to do something "along the lines of..." as long as the landscape suits my needs.
So I'm trying to figure out where to set my softball script. I want to use a real city so I can use real neighbourhoods/districts for team names and sound like I have a clue of what I'm talking about. It's a riches-to-rags story, so I need a city with a distinct upper class area and a really rough low-income area. I was trying to work with San Francisco because I've been there before, but it's such a dense city and I imagined things a bit more green and spread out (low income housing would be more like ratty bungalows, not apartment style) . I have a series of scenes set along a vaguely rural highway near where the protagonist lives in the low-income area, and obviously there's nothing like that in San Fran. Anyway, does that setting sound familiar to any of you guys?
Paying My Dues
After a couple Ativan, I must confront things I've been neglecting... I also don't know how to write one of these anymore.
I miss DeviantArt. I really do. I miss my drive to do better, to post more, to provide feedback where I could, to strive for recognition... I feel I owe some acknowledgement to those of you who are still here. I'm not dead. I've just been reevaluating my priorities, trying to determine how I'll achieve my next goal. Sadly, I don't believe DA plays a part in that anymore. I need a wider scope. Do blogs still exist? Do any of you still blog? A public journal has always been my most crucial mental health tool and above all,
Not Sure if Socially Anxious or Anti-Social
Do you ever feel like you just hate almost everyone you know? Or at least feel like you have no time/opportunity to chat to the people you actually want to. The people who interest me and I actually respect have busy lives of their own, and no time or drive to socialize. I miss DA because it used to be a safe place. However, I learned that my dad was snooping around on my page and read the short story I wrote about Snowball, so that means nothing is safe anymore. :slow: So that's only dissuaded me from using one of my main social outlets. But I can't be a shut-in forever.
Wondering who's still alive around here.
I've been busy with life. Ce
What's your schedule like?
Bit of a funk this week. Work is exhausting me and I'm barely working at all, to be honest. Have been taking EO (Early Out) left and right because there's no customers in the winter and miraculously I'm still making money. I thought I was in the red, but collected some rent from the roomie (the one I'm not sleeping with), paid off my visa, and I'm back to where I started before my extravagant expenses (dog and dog-related things, furniture, PS4). This can probably be explained by the fact that I have no social life outside of bf because I can't stand anyone else in town and have nothing in common with anyone. :| I have also slacked off in th
Cute puppy photos!
Quick update on Freya who is now almost four and a half months old!
She is well-behaved during the day, has ALMOST stopped having accidents in the house (though she still uses pee pads), knows Sit, Shake a paw, Lie Down, and Roll over, and is getting used to spending time alone. I can occasionally leave the room and she won't follow me. However...
On a typical work night, the bf and I will be gone by 6-7pm or so. Most nights, our roommate will be home by 9 or 10. Initially, we crated Freya during our time away, but decided she was better off having a room to herself for that long considering she will howl the entire time she's in her crate

Well I live about an hour north of SF and there is a HUGE split between lower class and upper class. There is NO middle class. If you have questions about the particulars of the Ghetto De Sonoma vs Fancy Ass Wine Country, lemme know! lol
