We're gonna Need a Bigger boat

Le Progress




Why the funky end count of 53582? because I am working on a story that already had 3582 words on Nov 1.

So. It's going okay! I'm working on what was going to be my spn_meanttobe story, but then I didn't get around to starting or finishing. It's a Dean/Cas Au. Cas is an FBI Agent, Dean is a hunter. Cas finds out about the supernatural.....

and then there will be sexy times. ;)

and then plot plot plot, character development, blah blah.

did I mention sexy times?

So, I signed up for nanowrimo this year.

It starts in, like, 36 hrs or something and I have yet to think of a plot.
and while I know I won't be flogged mercilessly for not writing 1667 words a day (or 50000 this month) I can't help but feel anxious.

I told myself that I didn't have to write all on one project. I could rotate if needs be, so that I wouldn't be... overwhelmed.

but the urge is there to just do one project and stick with it!

But.... I don't have a complete plot for the original fic I was thinking of doing.
I could always go back to my failed spn_meanttobe (Dean/Cas) and do that.
Or I could go WAY back to an original fic I've been working on since 1996 (no, you read that right, 1996). It's at 110,000 words and frankly, it lacks... cohesiveness and flow. It pretty much needs to be redone from the start.
Or I could do a sequel to Dark Shadows
Or I could do an SGA John/Rodney.

I kind of feel pulled in multiple directions. which is why I thought of rotating projects and just have the goal be the words and not the novel.

*am torn.

I know I don't finish them, but I love seeing the cards! Having ideas roll around in my brain! I never know what will fall out!

For the prompt John still carries Mary's body around after the fire while traveling with the boys, prompted by dev_earl at sharp_teeth 
Word Count: ~300ish
A/N: The shortest blurb I've ever written!


( He wishes she'd wake up )

So, neros_violin  and I have signed up to do fictictactoe  and have chosen table 2

01. Hero.	02. Medusa.	03. Sphinx.
04. Mermaid.	05. Pandora's Box.	06. Trojan Horse.
07. Pantheon.	08. Odyssey.	09. Muse.

Good luck, bb! No matter who wins, we both win!

So I've signed up for the mini_nanowrimo again, and I've pledged to do 400 words a day. Which I hope works out. I do better with weekly goals, frankly, but that's not an option.

so then I started thinking about what I was going to write. I have some original fic that I've been meaning to get back to but lately, I've been having WAY MORE FUN working on fanfic.

So at first, November was going to be original fic month but not anymore.

On my way to work this morning, I put classical music on which always helps me think and it came me. November will be Cliche Month!

OMG, YES. Cliche Month. I will try to work through as many cliches as possible. Given my propensity to write longer fic, I doubt I'll make it through many but I will give it my best.

And I think I'll work in SPN and SGA.

So far, my list of cliches to write is:

1. Aliens Make them Do it [AMTDI] for SGA and/or Sex Pollen for SPN
2. Amnesia
3. Mpreg
4. Genderswap
5. Doppleganger
6. Sudden Telepathy

And I'll prolly pull from my hc_bingo and orschmoop_bingo cards and see if I can cross off two things with one story.

So yeah, November is cliche month!
6.

Title: Small Packages
Rating: PG
Word Count: 5100ish - it was the little fic that just wouldn't end!
Summary: written for my hc_bingo card for the deaged(mental) square.
A/N: Sequel to Eat Me, Drink Me, where Dean is deaged due to [insert plot contrivance here]. I must confess, this turned into a story more about Sam than Dean and I really didn't see it coming. It kind of got away from me and I'm just happy I finished it.
