Hey, all. Anyone that has a suggestion for how I can wind up my opus, or at least one that isn't "Give up writing, you illiterate git." I'd be happy to hear from. Cause I thought I was finished yesterday,(I added on last night.) but I can't leave it like that, somehow. It's not right.Why is it everytime I think "This is going to be short and fluffy." it comes out like "I can stop anytime I want to."

Buffista Fic: It Could Be Plot Bunnies

"Letting The Telephone Ring", SA? I should thank you again for that-- both because I enjoyed the story itself, and because it made me go and look up Slodwick's Ani DiFranco titles challenge, which has been providing me with drabble titles all afternoon. So, hey, thanks. Good story, useful author's notes.
Me too! Slod's challenge has been great. I've been editing and sending stuff out this morning, and Ani's titles rock. Lets just hope we're not using the same ones.
That's nice, SA. Thanks. I thought I was just being annoying. Where do you send your stuff and how can I read more of it?
The two lists I send my stuff to primarily are Silverlake (best! list! ever!) and Glass Onion. They're both multifandom, and two of the best, most comprehensive lists out there. I send my stuff out to a number of other smaller, more focused lists as well, but those are the ones I care about. I've sent out three things this morning, and I'll be working on two or three more this afternoon.
Lets just hope we're not using the same ones.
At the moment, I'm going through the lists and writing a drabble per title, so I'm sort of hoping to be using the same ones as everyone else, actually. Annoying of me, but that's the way the muse has taken me.
(BTW, thanks for the correction in LJ, which can go unspecified on these boards. Something of a "time to fall through the floor" moment, I'm afraid.)
Just thought you should know. :)
OK, see what I get for watching my Angel DVDs instead of being online. Erika, I gave a much less up-to-date answer to your Batman/Catwoman question over in Fan Fic. I haven't read any comics regularly for months now, since Hubby stopped working at the game and comics store, but I might have to check out that one series to see Batman actually admit to human feelings. I don't know how much "Dark Knight Returns," Frank Miller's masterpiece of Batman future-fic, is considered canon, but there's acknowledgement in there that Bruce and Selina have been together. There's oodles of AUs out there with the two of them together (my favorite is one of the lovely "Elsewhens" [I think that's the title] where they go completely AU and have fun, and Bruce Wayne is a pirate, and Catwoman is a Spanish noblewoman with a sword, mad fun), but I hadn't realized it had gone mainstream. Or as mainstream as a canon can, with who knows how many regular titles and lots of single-shot issues.
But, damn, I loves me some Batman.
Me too. In my story, Bayliss and Munch bond over a Catwoman fantasy. I'm both proud and embarrassed by this.
So, I've been writing more of Sunrise.
The Whole Thing.
(WIP, all details subject to change, esp. in the last bits, which remain raw like sushi, as always.)
DAMN, Plei.
I'm finding myself crushed under the tide of knowing where I'm going and having to sort out the jumble as it washes over me.
And, of course, I decided that it would be a *good* idea to take a break and read Galveston today, and Sean Stewart has just broken me completely, and I haven't even read Part 4 yet. (Started ATPOTL last night, too. I'm reading a lot this weekend, though in patchwork. It wants me to read it at night, you see.)
Night is a good time for that.
But I'm not reading; I'm writing. Chapter 4 of TET is moving along.
