I saw the film years ago and just start reading the book and BAM look what blog gets suggested. I am a happy Jamie.

Wow, I’m a suggested blog now?! That’s pretty damn cool. Be a happy Jamie, dig around in my archives, enjoy ;]

Now that sweet-baby-jesus-and-the-orphans is/are following i-want-my-iwtv, I have this weird image in my mind of Lestat carting sweet baby Jesus behind him in a Radio Flyer wagon with a little entourage of the cutest orphans… maybe he’s bringing them to Dora the nun… who you’ll find out about later on in the series.

I would really like to rp with you but i’m a little worried to bother you. It seems like you only reply to certain threads or not at all and I don’t want to bother you.

ooc;; Ack— I knew this was going to come up sooner or later even though I hoped it wouldn’t. There is only so much I can do when it comes to roleplaying. With not a lot of time to spare [ working three jobs and all that fun stuff ] and monitoring carpal tunnel [ since I need my hands for animation ] I can’t respond to everything. I would love to, but I can’t.

Yes, I can be a bit selective only because of the amount of time I have to enjoy roleplaying and what I can do without straining myself. I also judge a thread based on, what I personally think, would be a successful interaction. I will be honest that I have had some replies where they literally brought the thread to a grinding halt with their first reply. I didn’t know how to respond without it seeming like I’m dragging them by the hair to make them help the interaction progress, you know? I don’t want to spend my time struggling with trying to get interactions to work.

Some days I feel like replying to asks only. Some days I feel like replying to certain people. It happens because everyone does it, m’dear. We’re all in the same boat, you know? But you shouldn’t let this stop you from RPing with me. There’s only so much I can do and I’m sorry if this seems off putting to some of you.

So if I decide to RP more, this is my policy, too bc it is a fine policy ^______^

I-want-my-iwtv is RPing holy shit!!!1!1

Just FYI, I’m RPing a teeensy teensy bit, as Lestat. I have a teensy thread going with claudiaindarkness, if she feels like continuing it, but I cannot take on new threads right now… maybe a with a FEW other ppl… the tag for it is iwantmyiwtv RP.

So I’m terribly elitist and exclusive, I’m sorry, but I have a hard enough time as it is being on tumblr and having a day job, so please be patient, don’t get all mad at me. I might not be able to handle even a teensy bit of RPing. We’ll see.

I think I’ll take Asks as Lestat, tho. So you can send those ;}

Claudia’s fingers reached out to gently fiddle with a lock of his blond hair. “We’re not so different you and I…” She found herself saying as she gazed at him gently and passionately.

Her touch was light but sent a calming ripple through him, and he nuzzled his cold cheek to hers in gratitude. In their earliest days together, Claudia had often boldly played with handfuls of his hair as she rode in his arms, or when they reclined together on a divan at home, discussing the evening plans. On this night Lestat needed her reassuring touch more than ever. Their argument just a few hours prior had been scathing, the two at odds over her decision to end her flute lessons.

Louis had not had been home to voice his opinion, but Lestat knew well enough what it would have been. Lestat had surrendered. He could no longer ignore the glint of her hungry eyes when he and Louis deposited her at these lessons, the manner in which they waved goodbye to her, inching closer together before the door closed, she knew these lessons were in fact a carefully plotted arranged absence. So that they could be alone together. So that they could have one another in a way that she could not.  
“Mon ange,” he began, unable to say what needed to be said, “it’s our similarities that cause these fights, but also…” and he placed a kiss delicately on her lips, “what bring us together again.” He looked away, navigating the dark streets. They were almost at their destination.

i-want-my-iwtv:

from Anne Rice’s FB page (8/7/14):

“Do you think that I, as an author, should have a press agent who controls and ultimately filters every public utterance I make? Should this page reflect only statements by me which have been approved and packaged by a press agent? Should all the public utterances of authors be controlled by press agents? —- Think what this would mean for this page. No more spontaneous conversational posts, no more immediate reactions to news stories brought to the page, offering them to others for comment; no more immediate and spontaneous reactions to current events; no more up to the moment participation in debates and discussions; and no more answering of questions every day and all during the day. Would this be a good thing? Is this what you want? —— I’m asking because some one seriously suggested this to me yesterday (in an Amazon Forum Discussion). I (and all authors) should be controlled by press agents. The person seemed to be perfectly sincere, and neither cynical nor disingenuous. The person said she was trying to “help” me. The person advised me that I was a “brand” and that I was damaging my brand. Of course this person obviously didn’t approve of the things I was saying in the Forum discussion, but the larger point seemed to be that authors should not make controversial statements publicly at all, that it is not appropriate for them to do so, that all communication from authors should be filtered properly by others and controlled. The person apparently believes authors are not competent to judge their public utterances on their own. And there was the implication that once authors become known, they forfeit the prerogative or privilege of open and spontaneous participation in public forums. ——- Well, I think you know what I think about this, and I think you know that this page is in no danger of becoming the packaged utterances of a brand. But I would sincerely like to know what you think, and what sort of communication you value with the authors whom you personally read.”

I actually enjoy reading her questions and opinions on things, even if I don’t agree with them. It’s intriguing, for better or worse. 

Same here. I have to wonder whether in this case someone was responding to some old Amazon rant-type thing. And regardless of the hair-tearing frustration of a lot of stuff she’s said, overall I do think she gains as many readers as she loses from her web presence – perhaps more, since the non-fannish readers (i.e. not those hit by her legal attacks/au fait with the Amazon rant etc.) will exist in higher numbers than the fannish ones. So the person may have been wrong and right at the same time…

^Agreed on all points. Maybe it was someone anticipating AR’s explosive rebuttals rational and careful responses to the upcoming terrible and offensive rational and careful reviews of Prince Lestat.
