As much as I love writing, I've been *HORRIBLE* about doing it on a regular basis for way too long. The one thing I've done the past few years is the SGA Reverse Bang, sgareversebang, which I really enjoy.

And now this year, I'm seriously considering doing the Criminal Minds Big Bang (cm_bigbang) - which has some major overlap time-wise.

This might just be insane. Will keep you all posted. :-P

The next few months are going to be interesting.

I've signed up for the polybigbang and the bigbang_mixup, plus NaNo. The first I definitely know what I'm doing. The second, I won't know until I pick a mix. The third, I'm debating between two or three things (good thing I have about two months to decide.)

And it looks like I'm going to be writing roughly 100,000 words between now and the end of the year. Whoo.

I've seen a few of my friends doing the "30 Day Fanfiction Writing Meme" and thought I'd join in.

1 – How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?

I think I just kind of fell into it. The first fandom I wrote for was Buffy and I think it was the however cliched "if you don't see what you want, write it yourself".


( The rest of the questions )

*sigh* I hate it when I have ideas for a fic, but they're not coming out. I'm going to give my sgareversebang one more shot before bed, and hopefully it'll help me get over that hump so it'll be easier to write.

And what makes it even more frustrating is that I've been skimming through the unfilled prompts for Yuletide and I've found a few that I kind of want to write, but now's not the time.

Tonight's "White Collar" was awesome. :-D And I want a scenario like that again. :-D :-D :-D


Also, I want the full-sized of the art I'm writing for for the sgareversebang because I want to see the whole thing, so I can start writing. (Just in case the thumbnail doesn't show something I might want to include in the fic.) But I am plotting - which is good.

Today rocked!

I had off today because of having to work Saturday. I got up at my normal work time in order to make it to the dentist to get a couple fillings done. And this time the dentist working on me was awesome when I told him the nerve on the left side of my lower jaw is out of whack - before injecting the anesthesia, he felt my gum, then injected the two shots. And after waiting the normal time and getting what I'm guessing is the correct response, he said, "Good. And I'm going to put in an extra shot, just to make sure." And I was pain free the whole time. (This is compared to about seven shots last time and still having some pain.)

I also went to the bank and put my jar of change through the coin-sorter and got about $75.

And I kicked Nano ass today and did *a lot* of writing. The Nano site, when I plugged in my updated word count said that I'd written 10,000 words. I think it's not quite that, but it's pretty damn close. Either way:

31700 / 50000 words. 63% done!

And I think everyone should watch A Single Man. It's fantastic and amazing! (Okay, and a bit of a tear-jerker, but still awesome!)

Go to Part Two

I'm about ready to kill my muse. I have a bigbang due on Monday, I'm about 3200 words shy of the minimum, and it decides that I need to change the story's pov. *sigh* This is the second time I've made a major change to this fic.

I guess it's good, then that I'm working three nine-hour days this week. Therefore, I'll get out on Friday around 12:30, and I can go hole up at Panera or the library or somewhere for a while and work on the fic.

*headdesk*

I'm working on a bigbang.

The minimum requirement is 10,000 words.

I'm at 17,500+ words and I'm just now getting to the good stuff. (And no, I don't mean sex.)

Somehow, I feel like I'm doing this wrong.

*headdesk*

1. Tell us about your favorite writ­ing project/universe that you’ve worked with and why.

I think that so far it's doing the "Rodney epic" (as I affectionately called it while I was working on it) "Gaijin" - which was a *huge* SGA fanfic. And it's because I hadn't thought I could write Rodney, or do the amount of world-building that I did, or write something that huge. But I did all of it.
