parallax23Hurray! I finally finished writing the last chapter of Just Another 48 Hours. That took way longer than expected...
I still am sticking to my weekly schedule, because I have to revise it before posting (no duh, I learned my lesson from After Life). It takes me some time to figure out what I want to keep, what I want to take a match to, and what I want to rewrite to make it sound cooler. So far I like a lot of what I have, but I won't have the details ironed out until the transcription.
Right now, I need my jump off point to the next part of the story, which I still don't have a title to. It'll come to me. Or I'll hunt it down and hog-tie it like an iguana if need be (because really, how else would you do it?). There isn't any action in Just Another 48 Hours, because I wanted to keep with the theme of things being 'unchanged' that characterizes the finale's end.
I know what I want to happen, I just need that jumping point. Where does the story pick up? It's a significant yet short period in my mind. It's also in the heat of an active scene. At least with the prequel done, I can focus on that now.
Well, while I'm trying to get some studying in for the GRE and finding a real life career to pursue, whatever that may be. I hit a snag in some major plans of mine, and it's been a bit hectic. What can I say? I feel like I've become the poster child for those who've fallen from grace in spite of doing nothing to deserve it. Oh well, I'll live, get over it, and write a novel.
The update on After Life is that I've had Chapter 9 written for like a week and a half, and still haven't revised it. Well, half of it is ready, the other isn't. It's kind of stuck and I'm trying to get it out. I hadn't really planned to write Chapter 9, it had just tapped me on the shoulder and appeared while I tried to finish the other story. I know what I'll write for it, I just don't know when it'll be ready.
As for The XYZ Affair featuring A & M, I'm still stuck at Hero and refuse to just write anything. I do have the outlines for several of the other letters though. I'm not sure if I'll do the second round prompts or make up my own for the next go at the alphabet game.
As a side note, I'm also astounded that Dark Angel Fanfiction is still thriving better than most currently running shows, in spite of the show having been canceled over 7 yrs ago and only running 2 seasons. I think it's one of the largest TV categories, it's probably top 20 over at ff.net. But me? I'm having fun reminiscing my younger, more prolific years. Sometimes, I wonder what it would've been like if I wrote there when I was younger. But until now I didn't like fanfic. I was a die hard canonist with many non-canonical musings that I turned into my own stories. Oh, how the times have changed.
Well that's it. L8rz.
