ficcage & stuff

I kind of got "stuck" for where to go next with my AxS fic and how to start the romance action. I finally got a plot bunny. Damn, sometimes it is hard trying to make the story good, believable, and somewhat original. I finally got an idea though...and I'm working on it. I have been writing some incredibly depressing ficlets though, so it is good to write somewhat lighter fair. I'm also going to work on a "spork" ficlet featuring humourous Pip & Seras set during the South America mission. Next I'll probably do a chapter of Farce of the Dragon or Golden Consequences.

RL stuff which is boring...(don't read if you don't want to yawn)
Both of my kids have been sick with a bad cold. My son went to school today finally and went to a meeting at his school. I'm proud of the little guy (well he is actually 13). He is getting a high A in Social Studies. Jimmy is a History Channel nerd and it shows. His A is without studying at home for tests. I have to encourage him so he takes his interest somewhere. We're also VERY excited about the Eagles going to the Superbowl. GO Eagles! He's really developed a love of watching football this year and I feel like I know about all of the teams that played in the playoffs. My daughter is still sick. Hopefully, she'll get to school tomorrow. I just hope I don't get sick. She goes next week to a doctor that hopefully can give me insight to why school doesn't matter to her...Oh well - back to work.

Hope you do some more writing soon...

I guess you already know I like to read your work:)

I've never written (intentional) humorous fanfic. Wish I could but somehow I just don't have that 'voice'.

Hope your kids feel better. I went to the dr's today with a bad sinus infection. Then, I came back and took my older,sick father to the drs. too. Now that I have elderly parents, I'm starting to understand what being responsible for someone is like.

Thanks, it means a lot that you like it - I enjoy what i've read of yours too. I still need to read your Dracula/Phantom stuff. Haven't been doing much reading. I actually did get some writing done and it's coming out pretty well. I can't do an all humor fan fic but would like to do some lighter. My writing is usually so dark. I like Pip & Seras for the reason that they can lighten things up. I did a very dark Walter ficlet that I only posted at [livejournal.com profile] bloodyshorts but I need to put in my LJ too. I wanted to get over my "hump" with the Time Changes Everything fic and I did. I have about 2/3 of the next chapter done.

Hope you feel better. My daughter has a fever for the third day. WTF? My son only had one on the first day. I may be taking her to the dr's. I'm praying I don't get it. It must be hard with your parents depending on you now. I'm not looking forward to that time. My mom & dad are both very active and still working.

I'm glad you're enjoying writing.

And yay for your son! Sounds like being a History Channel nerd is really paying off XD.

I hope that your daughter gets better soon. How old is she, by the way?

thanks ^___^ She's 16. My God - how am I old enough to have a 16 yr old??? I don't feel old. Well except on certain days.
