WIP meme

Feb 02, 2012 00:35

Post the first sentence (or three) from every WIP you're currently working on, even if it's very short. Then invite people to ask questions about your WIPs. With any luck, you'll get talking about writing, and the motivation to take that WIP one step closer to completion will appear as if by magic!

1. Miranda/Andy, untitled, prompt: Irv's desk

is the last one your big bang fic? it intrigues me greatly. :)

damelola February 2 2012, 01:37:15 UTC

It is indeed - I'm pulling out the chapters from the huge document of blah and editing/writing it into final shape. Scarily huge task, it turns out!

But yeah, in this chapter Andy is Governor of Maryland, hence the State Troopers ;)

Awesome! I am super excited to read it in its entirety. :) I always like everything of yours.

I enjoy your flailing, not least of all because I'll be doing the same for every Google doc you share with me :)

I'm a little embarassed to admit they I have no clue who these people are. None at all. =)

damelola February 3 2012, 01:04:47 UTC

Heh, it happens :D They're all Devil Wears Prada and The West Wing at the moment!

freiheitfuehlen February 3 2012, 14:14:42 UTC

Okay, cool. Don't know either. But thanks for clearing up that mystery for me. =)

love the concept of this WIP meme. I think I might do it myself because I need some motivation/inspiration to finish what I started months ago.

So A/T - when does Chesapeake take place?
Rhertoric & Treason - did you post chapters 1-12 somewhere? Why is Andy wearing a Yankees' cap, I thought she was an Oriole fan? I could be wrong, it's be a long time since I watched TWW.

damelola February 3 2012, 01:08:16 UTC

It really is a fun way of taking stock - definitely inspired me to get working!

Can I just say that I love you for pouncing on the A/T details so well? Chesapeake is way in the future, at the end of a 'verse I'm working on in Rhetoric & Treason - Andy is Sam's VP and there's a whooooooole lot of drama.

I haven't posted any chapters yet - I've written it all in one big doc and am sorting/editing into chapters. This is just the newest bit I'm fixing ready for posting at the moment.

Andy IS an Oriole fan! But she's wearing a Yankees cap in a bid to be a bit less recognizable - at this stage in the story she's Governor of Maryland and frequently photographed in the MD teams stuff - Orioles and Ravens. So when she comes to New York to visit Toby she goes with a bit of blending in. (Also, they have a history of swapping team souvenirs!)

So any luck in getting further inspired to finish any of these? I was a huge West Wing and it was through TWW that I first discovered fanfic. I was a CJ/Toby shipper, but in the absence of that, I would read A/T.

Andy as VP, I can totally see it. I also love the idea of Andy and Toby swapping team gear, although I find it hard for Toby to accept any Orioles stuff. Remember how upset he was when the twins wore the Orioles uniforms for halloween? haha

Keep writing!!
