I've reached the stage in my recovery from my NP addiction where, when I look back, part of me goes, "damn, I was good at that," but I also feel a lot of disgust simultaneously. The ridiculous quantity of time and effort and concern that I put into it ... literally stunted me, kept me from advancing in anyway except within NP. I can almost not understand how I found it all fun. 3 times in the past semester I've gone to the site to look at it. Once I almost registered for a new account, something vague stirring inside of me that said, "what is it like to be a newb? It can't be that addicting." I don't know what stopped me; something did. Maybe I've found some internal responsibility/maturity that made me squoosh my ... (immature) desire to be constantly, mindlessly entertained. I consider my addiction to NP as detrimental as an addiction to alcohol might've been. I ate crappy food, I didn't care about anything; I damaged relationships and an excellent job and my school career by paying too much attention to it. I never exercised, I scarcely wrote, I didn't have to go outside of myself at all. Of course, I know that I'm only judging my actions from a new set of morals, and that those morals have been instilled in me by the system I so much dislike, the one that exists in the Physics Department and says "only these things are worth anything, everything else is useless." But I know I've changed, and I think it's for the better. |

***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited) ***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel) ***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage) ***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit) ***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series) ***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly) ***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys) ***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting) ***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang) ***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!) | |
