Things!

1. Welp. I’m definitely doing the het_bigbang with Emma Grayling and Alec Palmer. It’s kind of a novel experience – working with characters that have actually appeared on screen with each other. :P However, I’m going to do my best to do like for like. If I write 1000 words of fic, then I need to write 1000 words of novel. We’ll see how it all goes…

But the real, honest truth is?

I need something fun and low-key/pressure in my life. I really, really do. And Het BB is that for me. So. Yes. I’m going to do this.

Btw, with the way I’m writing this? You will NOT need to know anything about Doctor Who. Seriously. This is my modern(ish) gothic romance story a la Mary Stewart.

2. I saw Iron Man 3!!!! No spoilers, I promise (unless you’d like me to, feel free to PM me for details). I’ll just say that the first movie continues to hold a very special place in my heart, but this one was definitely entertaining.

3. Work is nuts. I’m so busy. And they’re still thinking of getting rid of my post. *rolls eyes* I’m picking up work from a lot of different people now. One lady (who’s just lovely) has asked me to do something for her and in thanks – she got me a slice of cake from the nearby café! ♥

4. I’m doing a Pedometer Challenge at work, too. Apparently, you should average 10,000 steps a day. I’m almost managing that every other day. I need to step up my game. Pun wasn’t actually intended.

5. Ooh! It's Wednesday! Have some pics of the two faces that are currently plaguing my writing brain.

Happy Wednesday!

I have not done it yet but I'll be signing up too, 25000 words of The Following fix it fic! Best of luck to you!

I love that you're going to do more Alec/Emma! Loved your last one

So jealous you saw Ironman3. Another reason why living in America is poo poo

Aw, thank you!!! :D

Yay for not needing to know anything about Dr. Who cuz this totally sounds like my kind of story lol

[seren-ccd.livejournal.com]

You really don't! I'm incorporating the episode into it but that won't be until the end and since it's all from Emma's POV, she'll explain who the Doctor is. But that's only a section of the whole thing.

*bounces* I get to research hauntings now. WooooOOOOooooo!

Oooh, that is fabulous! I can't wait to read it! And their faces! That is a great cap.

I'm still debating signing up myself. I have another, barely started big bang that's due the month before that. On the other hand, I would like to attempt a little bang that's more character based than crime plot.

Yay for cake! Sucks about all the uncertainty. Hopefully they'll come to their senses soon.

Yay! I've already started it and for the first time in EVER the words are just flowing. It feels good.

Oooh, do a little one! You can bash out 10,000 no problem. And keeping it more focused on character would be a lot of fun.

Oh, I'd love for them to come to their senses.

That's great they are just flowing out! That's such a fantastic feeling!

I am surrounded by a bunch of enablers. :P
