Random Thoughts & Musings

Finished another fan story today.  Well, last night to be precise.  It came in at 23,485.  It was a right royal bitch to write, but I have slogged through it to the end.  Thank the PTBs it's over... now to plot the next story!

I'm working on an update to my website to include the newest stories on an easy to read layout.  I'll post when I've got that up.

Last night I finished by longest story yet in my Torchwood AU.  The story came in at 34,555 words and took 22 days to write.  It also includes my first graphic (as in I use four letter words and get into details) male/male sex scene.  It is however going to take me a bit to format it for upload to my website.  It's a very long file.  I'll probably have to break it into sections to make it easier for people to read there.  Now, now I hit the anti-Gwen story while trying to explore all the little twists and turns the boys threw at me in the most recent story.

Life as a writer is never dull that's for certain.

Well, my fan fiction series is cruising along at speeds to rival Cardiff residents running away from weevils or, for you non-Torchwood fans, as fast as a gazelle attempting to escape a cheetah. Either way you call it, my brain is in write mode and it won't shut up for love, money or sleep even! I guess that's a good thing.

I signed up for the tw_bigbang using one of my series stories as the entry. I should be ready for the longest one by the time the rough draft is due in, but we shall see. That's a 15k story with a draft due date of 28 September. I think I can manage that as the current story in the series is 26k and counting. Go me!

I'm debating writing a story for the kink_bigbang. That one is 12k and due by 15 September.  I just can't decide what to do for it or if I even want to attempt it.  So that's up in the air.  I've always wanted to write a proper dark and kinky story, just never really had incentive to do so. Wonder if I have to bribe myself to work on that one.  I'll think on it.

Look at it this way though, if this keeps up, no worries on getting NaNoWriMo done this year!

There are two new stories on my website:

• We Need a Miracle
  This is the crossover fix-it story for Torchwood's third season. Major spoilers for Children of Earth Day Four.
• Remember Me
  It's one thousand years later. This is my in-line with season three epilogue.

Hope you like'em.

While on my self imposed vacation, I thought carefully about my domain name and what I should host there.  After a good three months, I finally decided to make the domain my internet library.  It's now my personal archive of anything and everything I write be it fan fiction or original fiction.  If I do get professionally published again, I will likely do so under a pseudonym for which I can purchase its own domain name.  If you wish to visit, the site is linked at the top of the page and here:  Scriptoria Mea.
