Writing

Damn you people for asking what happens next... LOL! I don't like writing sequels because of popular demand. Sequels either were meant to be written or not. And if I don't see it, I won't write it. Nothing people say changes that. At least, that's how it's supposed to work. I detest authors who do that "If you like this, I'll write more" thing. *shudders* Sign of badfic.
And, yet, I read your comments and suddenly a dozen sequel images flooded my mind, and so now I'm writing one. LOL! So thank you all :-) I hadn't intended on it... but there really needs to be more Olly cuddling, IMHO :-) So I'm not writing it for you... but because the images showed themselves to me. But thanks for helping them do so *giggle*

I have been writing a lot of short fics lately. I'm not quite sure why... I guess I like being able to write a lot and finish a lot, for a change. Unlike these great big monster fics that take so much out of me and never get finished *cough*UnderHouseArrest*cough* And instead of writing long fics, I seem to be writing short fics or short fics in series that probably SHOULD be all one story but aren't. Not sure how I feel about that. The short fics usualy have a "plot" or central themes that allows them to be on their own... but maybe they should just be parts of a whole? Not sure. Kinda fuzzy in some cases.

On another note, this Remus story that popped into my head late Tuesday night- I think I finished it. Needs some editing and adding a little here and there. It's hurt/comfort with sneezing only at the beginning but hurting throughout and angst and all that yummy stuff that results in snuggley Marauders :-) And I've brilliantly worked in little nods towards other fics I've written (especially one nonsneezefic that's still unfinished) I'm kinda proud of the story... I'll probably be terribly ashamed of the cheesy parts in a couple weeks, but right now I like it. It's the sort of thing I used to write in middle school, so I dunno. *shrug* I keep going back and forth. I either love it or hate it. It's really sappy/cheesy and overly angsty... and it's really sweet, too. Gah. I dunno. The beginning with the sneezing is yummy, though. That much I know. LOL

Secret Window

Just saw Secret Window. Dragged Boyfriend to it. He shrugged and "umphed" at it. I adored it. Oohhhhh I loved it *G*

I haven't read anyone's reviews on it yet- I refuse to compromise my opinions by doing that. LOL But I'll cut since I know just a few of you have seen it.

( Secret Window Spoilers )

When we got out of the theater I asked Boyfriend how he liked it. I told him I loved it as a writer, and he said something like "Yeah, I thought of you right from the beginning. With all those naps and not getting dressed and getting up to write... that's how you are right now." I replied dreamily with "I SOOO want to be that person!" and he said "You ARE that person!" Only problem is, I don't get paid for it currently. But I want that lifestyle. Badly. I haven't slept in my bed in, like, a month. I just crash on the couch with little naps. Haven't used an alarm clock in such a long time. And I'm SO particular about my pillows. Good gods I want to live the life Mort had. LOL Secluded cabin... comfy couch... computer... "No bad writing!"... and a dog/cat or two to keep me company. Awww Totally me! Course I wouldn't mind a guy to share it with... so long as he didn't mind my crashing on the couch a lot heehee

Very behind

I'm behind on responses again... and feedback. I'm SO sorry. Will get to them tonight unless I fall asleep at an odd time. I want to stay up at least to watch SG1 with cute young Jack. heehee!

Stargate was... wow... not like I didn't see it coming... but, still, lots of good feelings. Got a bit Han & Leah vibe there at the end *sniffle* but twas an upbeat ending nonetheless.

Okay... so I'm trying to think of a title for this Remus fic so I can post it... I think I'm getting blocked because I'm sort of scared about posting it. I think it's still too mushy in parts. Given the situation I think some mush is called for. But maybe not quite to the degree I wrote it in. Gah... how about 'Mushy Reception' Blah. I can't think up titles to save my life sometimes!!!
