Snowflake Challenge #4
Jan. 7th, 2021 04:43 pmIn your own space, create some goals.
It feels a little optimistic to be making goals what with *waves hand at current events* everything, but![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
snowflake_challenge called and who am I not to answer?
I have two writing goals this year, one fannish and one not.
The fannish goal is to finish the Natasha fic![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
kore commissioned in return for an ACLU donation (which offer will probably stand into perpetuity, given… *waves hand at current events again* Anyway, it’s a $25 donation for a fic of at least 1,000 words, larger donations are likely to result in longer fics although I make no promises). I have decided I need to rewatch The Winter Soldier before I write this. I really hope this will not engender a desire to write another quarter of a million words about Bucky Barnes, not least because that would interfere with my other goal this year…
…which is to finish two f/f novellas set at women’s colleges circa 1890-1910. There are other projects I would like to finish as well, but those are somewhat dependent on if/when I finish the necessary research, whereas the research for the college girls is not only DONE but has been DONE for a decade, ever since I wrote my college thesis on the topic of American girls’ literature from 1890-1915. I have kept reading books about this topic ever since, often with soft cries of “I could have used this in my thesis!”, and now at last it will get some use after all!
