Writing stuff
Aug. 12th, 2008 04:22 pmI have a shiny new writing icon! *smiles at it adoringly* This may be my new favorite icon, displacing even the adorable kitten and the magic castle keyhole and the hot air balloons that I’ve never had a chance to use. I ought to post something about balloons and remedy that.
Anyway! So I can use the new icon (and get my thoughts organized): a list of fics that I’m writing, or should be writing, or might write if I can get my act together and/or find a plot.
( Lists! Lists are fun! )
There are also various random original stories that are floating around in the ether—Bartholomew Bethsaida’s eternity coats, which has an awesome first paragraph (“At the corner of Fourth and Time, Bartholomew Bethsaida runs his tailor's shop: bespoke eternity coats, cheap at the price. Only sell Mr. Bethsaida your death, and he will make you a coat as infinite as oblivion.”) followed by a great gulf of nothing.
I did consider writing an origin story for Jack’s coat here, but that turned into a bloodbath, so I decided it was a bad idea.
There are a number of longer stories too, and I should just take one and start writing it (I would feel better about this if the pirate island with the theocratic revolution novel hadn’t crashed and burned so badly. There’s still a crater in my heart.)
The theocratic revolution story was actually really cool. Or at least it had lots of pieces that could be cobbled into a cool story. (Yay terrible family dynamics!) Maybe I should resurrect it.
