Writing Life

The life most real to me. As evidenced by the preponderance of posts.

Another Damn Plot Bunny

Did I explain plot bunnies?  I’m sure I did. So you know how I spent my day.  Not that I’m complaining, I love writing, and plot bunnies spout the best stories.  My one and only complaint is that it wasn’t an idea for my original fiction. Yeah, so what else is new, you ask?  Yeah, […]

I Am Trying

All right, demmit.  Back to work. I made a screen saver and wallpaper of the actor cast as Ben in my novel.  I opened it.  I read the–well, I call it the Reader’s Digest condensed version.  In four pages I try to cover the important points of 83 pages of the first draft. I tinkered

Ridiculous

Worked on Chaos.  Another fun fic went serious, blast it. Yes, I know I’m supposed to be working on my original fiction.  I just can’t figure it out.  I can just pick up the threads and go on my fanfics, even the ones like Chaos I haven’t touched in a month, and post a chapter

Time for Another One

Edit years later–I was cleaning up the html when I realized that none of the links will work anyway, as I took my stories off MediaMiner when they decided to pretend same-sex relations automatically made everything rated X. If you’d like to read my fanfic, go here instead. Because I’m very proud of myself, and no
