(En français après l'anglais)

I've decided to start posting my novel, "Porte de Clignancourt" ("Clignancourt University"), a chapter at a time. It's in French, and I won't work on translating it until it's completely done, so if you can't read French, sorry about that. For all the others... Enjoy !

Comme je disais, j'ai décidé de pré-publier "Porte de Clignancourt" ici-même, un chapitre à la fois. J'espère avoir des commentaires.

Sév, n'hésite pas à le relire, j'ai fait quelques modifications, notamment dans les descriptions qui n'étaient pas assez détaillées.

Talhi, préviens-moi si tu ne veux pas le lire (tu me dis toujours que tu le liras quand il sera fini, et de ne pas t'envoyer le fichier ).
Mais si tu décides d'y jeter un oeil, tes commentaires aussi sont les bienvenus. Après tout, toi, ça sera ta première lecture.

J'espère que ça vous plaira

Can't say I'm surprised

I was tagged by Swing (how do you post these pictures that show the person's avatar, by the way?). so here you go.

1. Post these rules
2. Each person tagged must post 8 random facts about themselves
3. Tags should write a journal/ blog of these facts
4. At the end of the post 8 more persons are tagged and named
5. Go to their page and leave a comment telling them they're tagged.

(I'm not going to do 5, because that would mean going to random people and tagging them, and I'm not in a silly mood right now )

1 - I hate sharing. Comes from the fact I had 3 brothers and never had any privacy, I'm guessing. But the computer, for instance... i hate when Ian downloads stuff or saves stuff on the computer. For one thing, when it's music, I feel the urge to correct the file so it shows the right artist, album, track number and album cover, and that takes me all day. They he says it's his turn to use the computer and haven't even started doing anything -_-'.
2 - I eat weird stuff. As well as normal stuff, I guess. If someone told me "hey, I have some spider with boa sauce, do you want some", i'd dig in immediately (as long as it's real food ). When I haven't tried something, I just want to try it. Unless it has sour cream (can't digest that) or lots of fats (I'd rather eat healthy stuff).
So, I'valready had donkey, horse, frog (you'd think it's easy to get in France, but the only place I could get some was an Indian restaurant. No, we don't eat fogs in our regular restaurants. too bad ), snails, boar, oysters, elk, deer... And that would be in the last month only. But I also eat regular food
3 - Apart from these weird "tries", I usually don't eat meat. As in mammals. I do eat birds and fish, but I don't like most mammals.
I think it's because most of them are red meat, and red meat I eat so cooked that it has nothing red about it. If there is anything that looks kinda pinkish, I'll be sick. It's ironic, because I'm iron-defficient and they're the animals that give the most iron.
4- I have asthma, I'm allerg to dust, dust mites, pollen, I have hormonal problems and I lack iron. Plus, I take the pill, so it's a total of 5 medications I take everday (6 when my allergies are worse, in sumer for instance).
5 - I don't like dark chocolate or mint in anything except together.
6- When I'm bored, I do weird stuff to occupy myself. One summer, I taught myself to write with my left hand, only because I had nohing better to do. I don't even think it will ever be useful to me.
7 - I buy clothes every 3 years on average. I'm not the type tolike shopping (well, except if it's for books or video games). As long as it's comfortable, I don't need more.
The rest of my clothes was my father's or one of my brother's at some point. Or my fiancé's. so don'torry if my clothes are too big for me, I'm not hiding any beating marks or anything (I did have people believe that at some point).
8 - I don't shave. I mean, I don't shave any part of me. I used to (actually, I was removing it with an electrical device, which is about thsame as shaving, but in painful). But I stopped after Ian asked me why I was. I realised I had no idea, and stopped. (And most French women do. I don't think the stereotype has any ground. Actually, in France, we say that Portuguese women don't shave.)


Here you go. i'm not tagging anyone, because you're only 2 peoplewatching me: Swing, who tagged me, and Niner. So, Niner, if you want to do it, you go right ahead, if you don't, I don't mind.

I've decided to work hard on improving myself. I know I have a long way to go, and I can't to everything at once, so for now I'm going to work on positions and muscles, trying to draw pictures in movement. I'll work on some other things, like shading, when I feel I have improved enough.

Starting from now, advanced comments are encouraged. By which I mean, please feel free to tell me what works and what doesn't, and why.
I'll appreciate it greatly.
