lady_t_220Stupid internal body clock... Went to bed half an hour early and what happens? Yep, you guessed it, woke up half an hour early too. *nnugh*
So much for the benefits of an early night. Glad I didn't go to bed any earlier than half an hour, I don't much fancy waking up at the crack of dawn.
Did manage to write a little last night but it feels like I'm going through one of those phases where all the seems to come out is complete and total crap.Like someone has vacuumed away any lingering talent I may have once possessed..
I think I'm going to go through my writing files and sort everything out. Instead of just finished fic, unfinished fic and random bits I'm going to add a new "crap" subdirectory. That way I can empty out a lot of the things I really really don't have a use for without actually deleting them.
Like Richard's Scut Bin of Horror directory I suppose... home to all the shite you can't ever have a use for, don't know what to do with or are just morbidly fascinated by..
I do have one fic on the go that's currently still holding my interest though. The problem with it is that it really does require a complete bastard!Scott... ok, not exactly a complete bastard, but definitely an unthinking, somewhat uncaring selfish bastard!Scott, and even though I'm not really big on Cyke I have issues making him that OOC.
I want to continue writing this fic but my Scott muse is whinging about deformation of character and is quickly turning into his whiny self from Ally McBeal. I'm trying to steer it in the direction of him just being a little bit jealous, a little bit petulant and therefore really just unthinking, but it's coming out stronger than that.
Darn these hard-to-juggle L/J/S triangles!
Maybe I'll let it continue to stew and go back to working on DD's Fast, Loose and Lovely title challenge. God knows I need something to kick me back into my groove again, and if pointless smut doesn't do it I don't know what will.
(Sorry DD, if I finish it I fear you'll be getting an L/J PWP rather than an actual story or anything... try not to be too distraught)
It has simple elements, so even I shouldn't be able to get sidetracked into melodrama... Logan, Jean, a storm, the blackbird and a chessboard. Smut ensues. I could make it L/R by substituting the names, but there's just not enough non-angsty SHORT L/J smut out there.
What else is on the go...?
Ah, another AU epic but I'm still undecided who the lead female protagonist is. I'm not feeling too wild about OC fic at the moment and I'm not sure who I should make this one.
I think I'll finish writing it first, keeping the OC name so I don't get herded into character stereotyping and then decide who it should be.
*ponders* Though then again, this has been sitting around singe before the other big-assed AU fic was even started, I don't know when the hell I'll actually finish it.
Narcissistic L/R fic... can't think of an ending that doesn't suck or leap on the cliche wagon. It's therefore on hold. And I need to make it clearer that it's a just-escaped-Weapon-X!Logan rather than just travellin' Logan.
*urk* the still unfinished Halloween fic... Gods, it'll be next Halloween before it's done in most likelyhood.
The follow-ups to Breaking Point. A fic I wrote over a year ago and the rest of the damned series is still no more complete now than it was then. I have totally lost my train of thought with this one. I'm thinking at some point I'll yank down the first half, re-write it and put it all together in one longer fic as opposed to being 3 shorter ones. But it's all a matter of time and inclination, something I feel a little short of on both counts.
And now I suppose I'd better think about going to work...
