End of NaNoWriMo Wrap Up

It is the last day of National Novel Writing Month and I have to sadly say I did not make the 50K goal. I topped out at about 32K. However, I am not sad only because 1,067 average words a day is a pretty good record for me. Also, I managed to write every single day! I may not have posted every day or posted everything I wrote but that is still awesome. The following is a recap of what I got accomplished this month.

I completed three fics. “The Perks of Unlocked Doors” featuring Sam Winchester and Sheriff Stilinski, a meet-cute featuring an embarrassed by his dad Stiles. I finally finished my Boromir lives because Sam becomes the King of Hell Lord of the Rings Supernatural crossover “The Destiny of a King.” Wow, say that five times fast. And last but not least, I whipped out a Good Omens plot what plot fic “Exuviate” starring snake Crowley and dirty little hedonist Aziraphale.

I posted two new chapters for the Person of Interest Supernatural crossover “Searching the Voids.” I’m about twenty per cent done with (what I hope is) the last chapter so with any luck I will finish it in December. “Can’t Even Sit Straight,” the Alec Trevelyan/Gareth Mallory love story got another chapter. I’m going to revisit Goldeneye and Legends here again soon, maybe watch a few Ralph Fiennes movies. I think I have The Constant Gardener queued up somewhere. This will probably not get finished in December but I will get at least get another chapter out before the end of the year.

Unfortunately, I added to my WIPs again and started two new Star Trek fics. For the Adventures of the Sailing Ship Sam Series, I paired Sam with Leonard McCoy for I’m a librarian, not a… It’s a time travel fic and there may be some demon blood involved, so stay tuned. The other one features my number one ship McCoy/Chekov, and it’s called What Happens in Vegas. I’m excited about this one because it’s got the classic ‘aliens made them do it’ trope and something you would definitely find in Las Vegas, the ‘accidental marriage’ trope.

On an end note, I did do some binge watching this month and I’m back on a Karl Urban characters kick. Now I have a bunch of new plot bunnies because I watched both Doom and all of the new Star Trek movies. I have to say, I’m a little annoyed with FOX television because I also rewatched Almost Human and it was fantastic. For everything that I’ve read so far, it seemed like it was a popular series and the ratings were not bad. It was a shame they ended it after one season. I am sure the story would have picked up in a second season if they had completed some of the story arcs hinted at in the first. However, it does leave a lot of ideas to work with since the world building was fairly vague.

Anyhoo, to all my fellow Wrimos, I hope your words multiplied like rabbits and you made your 50K. For all of us Wrimos who didn’t, you tried and that was admirable in itself!

NaNoWriMo Week Two

So as I finish out week two I am distressed to say that I did not catch up over the weekend. It was a relief to have two extra days off but not enough to make up the 7K I had fallen behind. At least I am only 3K behind now. I’m confident that even if I don’t reach the end goal that I will have at least spent some time writing everyday, which will be an amazing accomplishment for me.

This week I posted “The Perks of Unlocked Doors” which was the Teen Wolf Supernatural crossover starring Sam and Sheriff Stilinski. I’m veering into the Star Trek fandom again, despite the fact that my tumblr is almost seventy-five per cent Lord of the Rings at the moment. Due to that, I started the Star Trek Supernatural crossover, “I’m a librarian, not a…” McCoy is hands down my favourite character, and since I’m not pairing him with Pavel this time, the navigator is going to have a cameo of some sort. The story was initially going to be a one shot but I wanted to post something so I ended up breaking it into chapters. Chapters one and two are posted and I am working on the third. It’s standing at three at the moment but the plot seems to keep running away from me and finding more dimensions.  

The goals for this coming week are to finish the Star Trek fic and finish my Person of Interest fic, “Searching the Voids”. Hopefully, I will also have time to start a new[ish] show I have discovered called “The Alienist.” It’s been a while since I’ve developed a new hyperfixation. The schedule and the Sam prompt list have been updated if anyone wants to check it out. Anyhoo, may the words multiply like rabbits for all of y’all fellow Wrimos, good luck and keep going!

NaNoWriMo Week One

Only going to post short updates during NaNo, also “Sorry!” forgot to post this on Sunday.

So, week one has passed and what a week it was. Between the US election, where my state of Nevada literally infuriated the world for a day and a half before GA and PA surprised everyone, destiel becoming canon then promptly pulling a bury your gays, and even more fake Russian news, I have to say that the insanity only got me slightly behind. On this wonderful day of the sun, I am going to catch up, I am going to get ahead, and I am going to post something.

I think my biggest problem at this point is that I’ve plotted almost everything, so in my head, I am done. I primarily write fanfiction for myself so my brain is saying “you’ve finished the story so move on.” I’m trying to convince it at the moment that we need the exposition. I actually need to put down the details and not daydream about the entire thing in my head.

I’ve been jumping around today and so far I’ve gotten a bit of “Searching the Voids” done and about 3/5ths of the still as yet untitled one shot for Noah Stilinski/Sam Winchester completed. I’d really appreciate title suggestions on that one. Anyhoo, may the words multiply like rabbits for all of y’all fellow Wrimos, good luck and keep going!

National Novel Writing Month 2020

The last time I completed a NaNoWriMo was in 2012, so here is to hoping for success this time around. I think I am in a better position this year than previous ones. My work is finally less stressful now that I have a different boss. I’m exceedingly better at planning than I was in previous years and I’ve begun to prioritise my writing time. So I’m planning to get my 50K spread between two large stories, at least two other WIPs, plus a few one shots. The goal stands at about 1,500-2,500 words a chapter and if I do the standard 1,667 a day that should be a chapter every one, to one and a half days. Check out this tag on my tumblr if you want sporadic updates on how I’m doing.

My Alec Trevelyan/Sam Winchester soulmate fic, “A Matter of Dates” is going to be between eight and ten chapters. I have it vaguely outlined and various snippets of a few chapters already written. Chapter one is published and chapter two will set the groundwork for the timeline to the present. I’m going with the tropes of the older soulmate stops ageing until the younger catches up with them, and James Bond is a name that is passed on to the new 007. I’m pretty much ignoring the Supernatural canon just because I don’t want to write the apocalypse arc. I might have a few run-ins with things here and there but Sam will be pretty much removed from the supernatural world as a whole.

The Alec Trevelyan/Gareth Mallory story, “Can’t Even Sit Straight” will be about ten chapters. It’s been plotted and most of the chapters outlined. I’m a bit excited for this one only because I want it to be a bit light-hearted and mushy with a side of comedy and dash of espionage. I’m still trying to decide if I want to retcon Spectre or let it be and make Bond beg Q for forgiveness after running away with you know who. I feel like the latter option might make the story too angsty, especially when they are not the main pairing.

There are two other current WIPs on the schedule. “Context is Key” featuring 00Q/Sam, I only have two chapters left with absolutely no outline. I feel it should be relatively easy to get through this one but it seems like my motivation is lacking for this particular fic. The other is “Searching the Voids”, my Person of Interest Reese/Finch/Sam endeavour. This also has two chapters left and I have written a bit in both but the rest of it is a jumbled mess of ideas I am trying to fit together. If I have time I would also like to finish “Into the Frying Pan,” my Criminal Minds crossover that sorely needs the first chapter rewritten to make the following chapters more coherent.

Since I have the first chapter of the first two fics already written and posted, I am going to pad my goals with some extra one shots that I will determine towards the end of the month. So once I reach that point I will be pantsing it. I will definitely be posting a Good Omens snake Crowley fic that I only have to polish it up a bit. It’s been languishing on my computer for months now in need of editing. The rest of the stories I am considering writing will be from my Adventures of the Sailing Ship Sam Winchester series. There is a Teen Wolf Supernatural crossover with Sam and Sheriff Stilinski based off of this prompt, “I broke into your house thinking it was mine because I was drunk af and now you are making me breakfast.” I’ve also got a Star Trek Supernatural crossover, featuring Sam and Leonard McCoy. It will be a time travel fic to the future for Alexandria Organisation Sam, wherein science clashes with the supernatural. The last one I am thinking about is also the least plotted out of the three. It’s a Doctor Who crossover with Rose and the Metacrisis Doctor. Trying to figure out what I want to do with it since it a bunch of vignettes that I want to string together into some sort of coherent story.

I am thinking of adding a bunch of WIPs to my current list of writing. I have a bunch of stories where I’ve finished the first chapter or that the first chapter just needs a bit of polish. However, I am loath to contribute more unfinished works to my catalogue. I know there are those of you out there that click that option “Complete Works Only.” I happen to be one of them so I feel like I might be spinning my wheels posting unfinished fics. I appreciate any feedback on this – Yes, moar fic! No – please finish your current stuff! or flavours of those answers to that effect if possible.

I’ve updated the schedule and the prompt list for the SS Sam series if anyone wants to suggest some titles for the works listed above. Just a note, WIP Wednesday is going on hiatus until NaNo is over unless I get too excited and simply must share something. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y’all!  

Fandoms – The Hobbit

So, an unexpected month-long plus one day hiatus. I lost track of the time over the Labor Day weekend reading too much barduil fanfiction and then I was so tired the past few weeks from working 10-12 hour days I just slept through the weekends. And yet another Sunday has rolled past and here I am writing a very messy blog entry. I meant to have this done by last Friday, as I had wanted to spend the weekend baking and eating things that were not good for me.

Anyway, my thoughts about the Hobbit might be shorter than the previous entry only because I want to write an update for this blog but I am also very tired. I can’t guarantee it will be coherent, only because I spend the last weekend rewatching all of the extended versions of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings and then this weekend watching the first Hobbit movie yet again. And, as I’ve said, I have also been consuming a ridiculous amount of fanfiction.  Initially, I was going to have to say that the Hobbit movies are pretty much like candy floss, fun, visually appealing, but having very little substance. However, I truly do not remember the book at all, so I might be wrong.

Now I recently ran across this post on tumblr. It really does embody my thoughts toward shipping in this fandom. On that note, I am going to say that I don’t like character death in almost any shape or form. I like happy endings, I want my faves to have happy endings. That being said, I’m still wishy-washy about whether or not Thorin should have lived (an only because he’s not a fave). He was quite a bit of a jerk, but Bilbo fell in love with him so my shipper heart wants that to happen (only because he is a fave). I do like Tauriel and Kili being together only because I think she and Legolas being BFFs works ways better. It makes Legolas more relatable and not as classist as his father. Then again, the less than twenty minutes of interaction between Thranduil and Bard have spawned a whole ship that tears apart those structures.

I think one of the rare ships that I am enjoying recently is Bilbo and Kili. It is nice to see the lead character paired up with someone who did not verbally abuse or physically threaten him for nine-tenths of the story. Some of them are quite creative since there is not only the work of having to do a retcon but also having to find a way around the more popular and canon relationships. Then, of course, multiple crack ships factor into this like Smaugbo. That one is just amusing beyond words. Even though I am a firm believer in Rule 34, I don’t think it would have come into being without Freeman and Benedict having been in Sherlock together. I probably will go into more detail on johnlock at some other point in the future.

So back on the subject of character death and my faves, chapter seven of “The Destiny of a King” is up if you want to check it out. I may be off schedule but I am still plodding forward with the writing. Only two chapters left of the aforementioned then it’s on to finishing “Context is Key”. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y’all!  

Fandoms – Lord of the Rings

Today’s blog entry is going to be a giant ramble about Lord of the Rings. I’ll probably get to the Hobbit later. It’s also a little late because I’m writing it just now, I’ve been kind of lax with the writing schedule because I’ve been working ten to twelve hours a day and I have absolutely no inclination for writing once I get home. In fact, I had an extra day off and I spent most of it sleeping instead of writing. So, this is going to be mostly about the Jackson movies because it was so long ago since I read any of Tolkien’s stuff, probably it’s been about maybe twenty years now, more honestly, if I think about it. I’ve been watching The Hobbit lately because of course, one can’t watch the Lord of the Rings and not watch The Hobbit. I don’t know why everybody complains they are not great movies. Well, I mean they aren’t great movies but they’re great in the fact that they are entertaining. They do what I want them to do as far as media consumption is concerned.  

This is probably going to be short and disjointed but hopefully entertaining. Honestly, I hate the “Redemption through Death” trope, and both the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings have this. So, I’ve probably mentioned my retcon “The Destiny of a King” where Boromir Lives. The problem I have with his death is that even though he was under the influence of the Ring he was perceived as a villain and he although he tried to take it, he redeemed himself of his transgression by fighting for Merry and Pippin. Now I acknowledge that plot-wise his death was important in spurring Aragorn to embrace his legacy as King, but I take issue with Aragorn’s perceptions of Boromir. It is one of the many things that I believe had the deck stacked against him in terms of the arrangement of the fellowship. The one Man in the group who should have been Boromir’s ally has internalised distaste of his own race. As much as I love Elrond, Aragorn was brought up with the elf’s pretty blatant distaste for Men. Elrond bases his entire argument that men are weak on the failing of Aragorn’s ancestor, and it influences Aragorn’s reluctance to take the throne of Gondor. So, when confronted by the very reminder of his responsibility Aragorn has no sufferance for Boromir.

This also related to Frodo, because of the story Aragorn told him about the Kings of Men that were now the Ringwraiths. Because of this Frodo now probably believes any Man who wants to use the ring is wicked or will fall into wickedness. So, you can imagine when Boromir suggests they use the Ring during the council that this does not endear him to Frodo. As for the council meeting, I get this feeling that no one bothered to adequately explain to Boromir why using the ring was bad. He gets admonished in front of his peers of other nations and is pretty much told that he should “hush the grownups are talking, you don’t know enough to have an opinion.” Then, he is also further humiliated by being told he should owe his allegiance to a man who has been shirking his responsibilities for decades. Despite all of this, Boromir still volunteers to go on what could be considered a suicide mission for the sake of saving Middle Earth, other Men in the council could have gone.

So, circling back to the structure of the Fellowship, and why inherently it was one of the reasons Boromir fell prey to the Ring. As the other Man in the group, he had no emotional support to lean on. It’s not mentioned in the movie but Boromir should know Gandalf as Mithrandir since he was Faramir’s tutor. However, there is no connection with the ‘mysterious’ wizard as there is almost no interaction with him and Boromir throughout the entire story. The others already have connections within the group. All of the halflings have each other by way of both race and familiarity. Aragorn had already made friends with the Hobbits, they trust and admire him for saving them. There is the perception that Aragorn most likely knows Legolas, as there is a familiarity with elves already established there. Even if Gimli did not know Legolas before the Fellowship was formed, he knows of him from his father Gloin because of the part the Mirkwood elves played in the Battle of the Five Armies. Now I must point out that even though he made what seems like good friends with Merry and Pippin, he does not seem to connect with them on an ‘adult level.’ The reason I say this is his conversation with Aragorn in Lothlorien. Boromir must feel like he is on a pointless quest while the people of his nation die when he could be in Gondor doing something about it. These fears are not something he could share with anyone, least of all two carefree and happy Hobbits he feels he needs to protect from the horrors to come.

He probably feels a failure to protect them from such a thing after Gandalf ‘dies’ in Moria. Boromir is the first to acknowledge everyone’s sorrow and is reprimanded for it. Then despite him pointing out they never should have gone that way he is then taken to place where he has been cautioned about all of his life as dangerous. And really Lothlorien is the catalyst for all of it. I’m not fond of Galadriel and I think her interference is most likely to blame for the Ring’s influence over Boromir than anything else. All of her dramatic posturing and dire portents smacks of villain monologue to me. Then, with Aragorn’s lacklustre comforting over the fate of Gondor and later his harsh words on the riverbank, it was no surprise that Boromir was ripe for the Ring’s manipulations.

So now that you’ve read over a thousand words of me rambling on about why I think Boromir was done dirty, I’ll leave you in anticipation about next week’s entry. It’s basically ‘why I think Thorin is a jerk but should have lived’ and why Kili’s death was entirely unnecessary considering that any Tauriel and/or Legolas ‘romance’ never appeared to go anywhere. Also known as ‘For Valar’s sake, Thranduil, they are just friends…’

Anyway, I’m off to finish watching The Fellowship of the Ring again and write more ‘Everybody Lives Nobody Dies’ AUs. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y’all!

Writing Schedule, Editing and Original Works

As I’ve gotten older I’ve realised that I require structure. My brain chemistry dictates that I live a very chaotic life so any small measure of control I can exercise is very comforting. I’ve made myself a writing schedule if I stick to it is as much a mystery to me as anyone else. However, I’m on day twenty-three and I believe I’m doing relatively well. I’m hoping to keep myself engaged. The 007 Fest I recently was a part of showed me that I needed challenges, but not in the form of deadlines. I’m trying to set goals for myself that are not necessarily regular postings. If I manage to write around four hundred words a day or work on a project for at least an hour I feel pretty satisfied with my progress. I’ve made a tentative writing schedule if anyone wants to check it out. It is definitely subject to change and I’ve tried to promise myself that I will not contribute to my existing unfinished fics.

So part of that schedule is editing my older already posted works. One of the greatest challenges that I face is that I have no beta. I’ve been using the free version of Grammarly lately. It catches most of the errors considering that my English is a bit irregular. For the first thirteen years of my life, I went to an international school, so I use a lot of British spellings and expressions. When I moved back to the United States, I had to school myself to remember that Americans don’t spell or say things that way. I finally gave that up after a few years and just let people deal. So now my writing is an amalgamate of British expressions and weird Western American colloquialisms. Recently, I’ve found that if I plug my stories into Google translate and let it read it back to me I find all of the words I’ve missed or parts that just sound unwieldy.

As part of my editing, I am revisiting Fanfiction.net. I don’t care for it, but some of my audience is still there. I’m reuploading the explicit fics that I had censored during the 2012 purge. I haven’t made the decision yet as to whether I am going to take the chance to post them in their entirety or rewrite portions of them to pass the guidelines for M but not MA. I feel like rewriting them would be untrue to the intent in which I wrote them. I have, however, decided to upload the rest of my fics; for a while, I had left only my most popular ones on the site

Speaking of popularity, does anyone read original stuff any more? I’ve written a few original works, but I feel like there is no interest in original fiction anymore. I wonder if it is because I exist in an echo chamber of fanfiction or it is because of my own experience. I find lately that I struggle to read anything that is not fanfiction, even if it is the source material for my fandoms. I posted a couple of chapters of my NaNoWriMo 2012 novel Dark Dreams on AO3 and have since then come to realise that perhaps it is not the best platform for original work. I hesitate to describe it as a thriller anymore because of the dystopian overtones in the story. I totally lost interest in completing it after the 2016 election. Current events at that time, and since then, mirror the content far too much for me to be comfortable about the subject matter. However, I do have some poetry which I am still considering getting published as an ebook. I have several beautiful photographs I’ve taken over the years that I want to pair with each entry. Perhaps I can leverage some of this newfound motivation into getting that done.

Well, that is about it for this entry. Next time it’s all about fandoms, new and old. I’ll finish off with another plug for my SS Sam series and the link for the prompt list. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y’all!

Hyperfixations

So, current hyperfixations, this is a doozy. Sean Bean. I suppose this happened sometime in early June and hasn’t stopped since then. I watched Goldeneye again and was possessed to watch everything Sean Bean has been in. So, of course, I finally got around to watching the extended version of Lord of the Rings. Totally chickened out and shut it off right before the scene at Amon Hen where Boromir dies. Then I discovered The Frankenstein Chronicles on Netflix. What can I say? I still think he’s hot as an older man. It’s a very interesting take on the Frankenstein mythos. There are a good bit of historical events interwoven in the series which takes place around the mid-1830s. Bean’s character, John Marlott, is not a nice guy even though he is the protagonist. He’s not a bad guy either. The series is dark, there are some period typical religious overtones, and everyone is dirty and needs a bath or a good slap to the head.

I guess it was just luck that I stumbled upon the 007 Fest announcement shortly after that. Consequently, all of July was a barrage of James Bond material. Oddly enough, the titular character is not my favourite. I think I wrote some fantastic headcanons for Alec Trevelyan during this time. I finished a Goldeneye retcon fic that I was rather proud of called “Phantom Handler.” I also started another fic involving him and Mallory (the new M) called “Can’t Even Sit Straight.” I really wanted to do something different involving a romance between two older characters, one of whom is just discovering their sexuality. Also, purely because it’s interesting to me to do so, I’ve started constructing a timeline to insert Alec Trevelyan’s history into the current events of the Craig Bond’s series of movies.

As for other things Sean Bean has been in, I still need to watch Legends, because I’m a sucker for crime/thriller series. I have been told Broken is pretty good, it would be something different for me since I’m not too much of a slice of life drama fan. I’ve just recently seen gifsets going around on tumblr for World on Fire, it looks intriguing. Depending on how dedicated I am, I might rewatch both Silent Hill movies and finally get around to watching the Island. If I really want to go all out I might possibly search out some of his older works like Caravaggio, Anna Karenina, and Lady Chatterley. I am not going to rewatch the Sharpe miniseries only because I would never get any writing done at that point, but I will highly recommend it to anyone who likes period pieces. However, since I did watch Lord of the Rings again (and finally finished it), the current fic I’m trying to complete is “The Destiny of a King.” I am retconning Boromir’s death because of total self-indulgence. I love giving my favourite characters happy endings and it’s a wonderful opportunity to add to my Sam Winchester soulmate series.

This brings me to my ongoing hyperfixation. Sam Winchester. Y’all are probably going to get tired of me going on about Sam. Sundays on my tumblr are all posts and meta about Sam Winchester. I have an entire series of fics dedicated to the tag Sam Winchester Deserves Happiness. My Adventures of the Sailing Ship Sam Series is where I can indulge my fandom bicycle crossover multi shipper fascination to my heart’s content. Please check out my prompt list on this series if you are interested in future fics. So why I am so keen on it? Sam has many unexplored storylines, his character development is emotionally rich but outside of that it’s still vague enough to build on, also the writers of Supernatural have written him slightly enough out of the main character role that he can be taken anywhere. Really, that is where it gets interesting. There are so many opportunities in Sam’s storyline that he can break from his current life and go elsewhere. With my tendency to want to fix canon, Sam Winchester is one of the perfect characters to write with.

Well, enough of that for now, tons of meta has been written and that is not for this post. Check out this tag here on my tumblr if you want to read random things I post about my fics. Next time, I hope to talk about some of my old works and the current editing I’ve been doing on them. Also, I might get into some of my original writing and talk a little about a controversial subject that I’ve been seeing floating around tumblr recently. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y’all!

New Approach and Intro

So I have decided to dump all of my fandom ramblings here. I am hoping to update once a week on what I've been doing. I've been in fandom quite a while, for over thirty years at least, and I think I am just now getting my act together when it comes to what I want out of the experience. I recently participated in a fandom festival and it brought into focus what I really enjoy about fandom. I love writing and creating things, not only for others to consume but also for my own enjoyment. So in the spirit of trying to get this writing thing off to a good start, I thought I would regale everyone with my start in fandom.

A lot of my earliest fandoms were anime and manga, but I think my writing really took off with some of the television shows in the late 90s to the early 2000s. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, X-Files and Stargate SG1 were all shows that I enjoyed. I know that at the height of its popularity I had attended an X-Files convention and that was one of my first exposures to fan culture outside of my group of friends gathering for Friday night viewings. I think one of the first fandoms I ever wrote for was actually Firefly. Until then, I was mostly unaware of online forums and did not even know Livejournal existed. I wrote simply for my own satisfaction.

Somewhere around 2004, I went to an anime convention in Los Angeles and a wonderful group of fans introduced me to Fanfiction.net. At this point, I was writing quite a bit but did not feel confident about posting anything. It wasn't until I discovered Criminal Minds that I seriously considered putting my writing out there. Somewhere around 2008, I posted my first story on Fanfiction.net, and for the next four years, I pretty much posted into the void.

I'm not a social person, so most of my fan experience comes from online. Somewhere around 2010, I discovered tumblr and my exposure to ship wars and fandom meta began. At this point in my life, my depression and work demands were making me escape into the internet more and more. I binged my first six seasons of Supernatural and that was the when my writing took off in earnest. Then the purge of adult content happened on Fanfiction.net in 2012 and more than half of my writing was wiped. I briefly moved everything over to Adultfanfiction.net but I continued posting at Fanfiction.net with censored stories.

November of 2012 rolled around and I finished my first NaNoWriMo since I joined in 2009. I was ecstatic. It also introduced me to Archive of Our Own (AO3). I pretty much abandoned the other sites for AO3. I continued posting fanfiction blissfully ignoring fandom nonsense until about 2015. About this time tumblr nerfed my original url due to adult content. I was mildly unhappy but created the one I am currently at. Somewhere around then, I stopped writing altogether for about four years due to real-life issues. I abandoned posting on tumblr around two years later because it wasn't fun anymore.

So my latest re-entry into fandom was because of Good Omens. I had read the book when it was first released and I was delighted that they made it into a miniseries. Suddenly my interest was piqued again and I started catching up on my favourite shows like Supernatural. I became a bitter Sam girl overnight. I dove back into tumblr looking for fanart and wanting to reconnect with old fandoms. This is what lead me to my current situation. I began a massive crossover series and started to re-visit some of my older favourites in relation to that. In the process, I stumbled over the 007 Fest and my writing took off again.

Hopefully, this anecdote hasn't been too tedious. So for the next post, I was thinking of discussing my tentative writing schedule and current hyperfixations. The most recent indicator is always what I'm posting on tumblr. Plot bunnies abound, until next time y'all!
