Why can't you update faster? RL comes first.
How much money do you make off of your works? Absolutely nothing! In fact the web space I use costs me money. It's not a free site (Notice the lack of pop up adds and advertising banners?) This is strictly a hobby for me, something I decided to share with all of you at no cost. I figure, I write tons of this stuff, why not put some of it out there for someone else to enjoy. Apparently I'm not alone in my lunacy---who'da thunk it!
Will you host my work? No, I have limited web space and every page costs me money, something I don't have in abundance.
Will you critique my work? Not unless I've extended you the offer personally (You people know who you are) I'm not an agent nor am I your goddess. My opinion isn't worth that much to the real world professionals such as publishers. Nor do I have the time to answer every request sent to me for a critique. Some of you guys have sent me book length novels...great work, but seriously, I don't have that kinda time.
Will you teach me how to write? No, I have no idea how to do this; I'm not a teacher.
When will you update, this, that or the other? Hard to tell, the bunnies are always in control. I HONESTLY have very little influence over the furry beasts.. Currently both Black Roses& Dark Night are getting regular attention.
What's up with the Dark Night updates? Black Roses has the most bunnies devoted to it at the moment and even though I'm regularly working on Dark Night I tend to write things "out of order" so much of that work isn't ready to be posted yet.
Where can I find more of the Silent Cries stuff? In most cases you can't. Most of it has been removed from the web. You may find something somewhere but for the most part my work is located right here at Midnight's place. Any stray bits would be under the penname Starchild or Silk.
Why did you remove the Silent Cries series from your webpage? I was getting tons of mail asking for updates, and honestly I didn't see myself updating any of those in the near future so I removed them from the web.
Where's the Corner Rose stuff? Gone, unfortunately. Next to none of this stuff is in existence today. No I don't plan on rewriting it.
Will you give me an overview of your worlds? I'm working on a webpage that will do just that but in the meanwhile, it's pretty simple (In my mind, at least.) Good vs. Evil. Vampires, demons, angels and immortals walk the earth. Humans are caught in the crossfire of an ancient war that has raged for countless years. In Black Roses these creatures operate in the forefront and are slowly consuming the world they inhabit. In Silent Cries they are operating in the shadows of a human infested world, and things aren't going quite as well.
Are you a Vampire/Goth/Satanist? No, on all three counts.
Are you male or female? Female.
Why would a woman write this stuff? It's a kink. I'm kinky lol.
What do you look like? I'm a striking gothic beauty, of course. Yes, I was being sarcastic with that first answer lol. This is cyber space and I can be anything I wanta be, the truth would just spoil your vision of me. Besides in the real world I'm a happily married woman, you haven't got a chance in hell of landing a date with me.
What do you do for a living? Midnight Firemist is the keeper of the furry beasts known as bunnies her controller shall remain silent on the matter.
Where do you live? Call me paranoid, but when people e-mail me asking for my address and phone number I get real uncomfortable REAL quick! You may not be a nut, but I have no way of knowing that. And repeated assurances won't change things. Only one person on the net has ever gotten my real name and address and she's probably gonna be the last.
Why won't you trust me? I get weird e-mails daily and considering the fact that I'm not famous and have no money to hire bodyguard's please just respect my privacy.
What's your real name? Midnight Firemist. Her controller shall remain nameless.
Is any of the stuff you write about real? No. This is not an account of some kind of buried history. It's fiction and it's written for fun.
You are a goddess and I worship you! That's sweet, but I hope you mean figuratively because I'm quite mortal and having "real worshipers" would just make me nervous.
Can I be your slave? Tempting but no. I don't need another mouth to feed.
When will Wizards& Warrior be updated? Ask Devilkat, that's her baby. I have nothing to do with it.
Can I send you my picture for the longhaired gallery? You may, I save them all to a folder and one day you may find your pic there. I just can't make promises on when. RL comes first, list upkeep second, writing third and all other things after. Currently the galleries are all down with the exception of Purgatory and this is due to yahoo image search eating up my Bandwidth. Eventually I'll be putting the Galleries back up.
How can you put this filth on the internet? Hummm, homophobic or hates my writing? In either situation no one has force feed it too you. If your feathers are ruffled it's your own fault you shoulda stopped with the warnings page or the second you became uncomfortable.
Can I send you questions for the Q&A? Of course, if I get a question more than once...this is where it ends up.
