Well, it's been officially announced that I am the Last Fiction Writer Standing.
How it was announced or how it came to be, I am choosing to ignore just for these next three minutes, because I feel like I should get at least a few minutes of being able to feel a little bit happy about that.
If you feel the urge to smirk, snark or bitch, best to ( Read more... ) -

I just wanted to clarify that I don't blame colorguard28 for the kerfuffle with ncis_lfws - I'd accept an alternate prompt if it were an option, if only so things ended on a happier note. There are a number of factors that led us to where we are right now, and it's not her fault. When I said the prompt was under contention, I meant that I'd heard of the issues ( ( Read more... ) -
last one standing?
Still no word about what's happening with the NCIS Last Fiction Writer Standing competition. No official word, that is. Plenty of buzz about... if the increase in visitors around here is anything to go by. I'm not sure I love the implication that I won by default. I worked bloody hard on my fic throughout the contest, and prompt assignments have ( Read more... ) -

So the prompt came out for the final NCIS_LFWS round today:
11. CROSSOVER Your final challenge is to write a crossover fic, with another TV show. It can be any, non-reality show of your choosing.

shoes and ships and sealing wax
Just submitted my semi-final piece for ncis_lfws . It's safe to say I've never been so nervous about a fic in my life, even though it's essentially old ground and rather familiar subjects. There were a thousand possibilities for an AU fic centred around one of the team, and I guess I'm playing it safe (the other ideas in no particular order were Gibbs the ( Read more... ) -

FIC: Thinner, NCIS, Tim McGee, PG.
Written for Round 6 of ncis_lfws and awarded equal first place, though that's not saying much since there were only two entries in total for this round. The prompt was to write a whump fic, but I'm not entirely sure what that is, so I just let my muse write what it wanted. Which, apparently, is another Somalia fic. Hrmm.
Title: Thinner
Character(s): Tim ( Read more... )
