Finis!
It's done! Well, not completely done, but it's done! Over 100,000 words! 42 chapters (perfect number)! I did it!
I've finished a story! And a long one too! Hurray!
Come! All! Bask in the glory of my awesomeness! For it is over! Well, it isn't over...but it's over! 42 Chapters! And now on to some well-earned rest in which I have no clue what to do ( Read more... ) -
Chapter 40
I've been busy. Not posting. Not much to talk about. RL's dull so there's always good ol' escapism to keep me occupied and to keep me dreaming and more importantly, thinking.
My latest chapter was another hard one (I say that about every chapter tho) but this one posed a challenge as I had to deconstruct the Doctor, bring him down...giving the bad ( Read more... ) -
The Storyteller Chapter 37
Bitter Trials
A new batch of recruits arrived in the hospital in a mess of blood, toil, tears and guts. Some were carried in, falling apart in the hands of the nurses and doctors who carried them, because there weren't enough gurneys. Others were aided in their constant stumble before they were guided to rest upon a white bed among a hundred other ( Read more... ) -
The Storyteller chapter 36
And you know the rest. The rest is history. The ending's an easy guess, because I'm not going to kill off the main character. The main character is me. The Doctor.
Predictably, we got out, somewhat in one piece, with an amazing story to tell our grandchildren's grandchildren of what we saw beyond the end of time itself. But, of course, it was all a ( Read more... ) -
The Wedding of River Song (barely spoilers)
I loved it.
And if anyone's been reading my fic 'The Storyteller' you'll notice MORE similarities (first Amy gets an avatar body -mine was living metal; Moffat's was Flesh- and now timelines overlap!)
This isn't the first time I seem to channel the Doctor Who writers: I had a fix where Owen fights the Master....then Owen died and became the vessel ( Read more... ) -
Oh, the irony
I just realized why I have such a hard time writing this chapter.
It was my plan all along to have the Doctor out of his element, out of time, out of place (well, he's always out of place) out of places to hide or run to and he has to sit still and take an emotional beating.
Well, the last thing is perfectly fine, but everything else...
Usually there ( Read more... ) -

Fandom: Farscape
Title: Disquiet
Rating: PG

As a child she had always been terrified ( Read more... ) -
Chapter 35 is up!
I've been struggling really hard with this chapter, getting the flow of the story right, the technical stuff, the philosophy behind it, the questions, the Doctor, the build-up, it all didn't gel until now. I wanted it to include the reveal, but it's been so long already, so I figured I'd just post something so I can get that behind me and move ( Read more... ) -
Torn
Am stuck. Torn between a living memory and an astral projection. (it'll make sense when you read it) Can't have them both.
This chapter might as well be called "How to Disguise an InfoDump " . Now how do I shut up my main character who is also narrator so another character can have a monologue? ARGH There has to be a way.

Dead Lines
Inner Editor's demanding another rewrite. Wants it to be more engaging, less preachy, get to the point, ramp up the coherency and mystery and make it something someone would actually *want* to read. So I guess I won't be making the 15th of July deadline.
