Ficage In July.
First, let me just say that as I was scrolling through my July archives to see what fic I had posted in years past, I came across two things of note. a) I was legit bitching in a post back in July of 2010 about how Red Dawn is never coming out. Apparently, even back then I thought the wait had already been too long for the release of this movie. Little did I know how much longer I would have to wait. And b) I was scrolling by posts and I saw this jump out at me - Please tell Jeremy Renner to come over later and make-out with me. K? Thanx. It was a letter directed at Ben Affleck about his movie The Town. I'm just sayin', I have always had good tastes in men, okay? (Still haven't actually seen The Town yet though - should make sure it is in the Netflix).
Now word county stuffs: Almost forgot to post this month. I went to put in my word count from yesterday (2,350 words!) and I saw that last month's list was still in the document. Oops. I would say it is a pretty diverse month, but I feel like I always say that, don't I? Still five different fandoms this month, including Falling Skies fic, so add a brand new fandom to my list! Also, the cabin fic that I wrote out by hand ended up being 300 words more than I had estimated once I had typed it out. But so very, very little on The BFF's fic.
Here is my approximate word count for the month.
July, 2012
Week One: 550 words of Leverage fic.
Week Two: 1,700 words of Falling Skies Tom/Weaver fic. Completed.
Week Three: 1,550 words of Christian/Jensen AU fic.
Week Four: 1,500 words of SPN Weechester Cabin fic. Completed.
Week Four and a Half: 700 words of Secret Crossover fic.
6,000 words written in July!
July, 2010
Nymphs, Fairies and Paranormal Hoochies
My first Supernatural fanfic ever!! This is a drabble written as a Valentine's Day present for my girls and featuring Sam and Dean at a bachelor auction. It is short and cute and comes with pictures of the boys in formal wear!
July, 2011
Cowboys & Cupids at County
My first C2 fic ever! That's Chad Michael Murray/Christian Kane, if you're wondering. So I had always planned on writing some C2 but it was that damn ABC Family movie, “Christmas Cupid” that pushed me over the edge. The only way I could get through it was imagining Chad dumping that awful chick for Christian. I liked Chad in scrubs though, and I figured Christian would look good in scrubs too and...yeah that was about it for the reasons behind writing this fic. It was a nice cathartic release after that awful movie and the guys are adorable being all awkward and Jared wears peach bunny scrubs!
That is all I got this month. It seems July is not a heavy posting month for me. I must wait until the hibernation of winter, it seems. Which reminds me, I have fic to post this month and I need to get on that. I promised someone I would.
My goal between now and the end of September is to finish The BFF's fic - it already has 8,000 words and it needs about 4,000 more, I think, to be completed. I also want to finish The Nephew's back-to-school fic which I started yesterday. That needs about 1,500 more words or so. And, of course, the birthday fic I started for wolfrider89 last year right before I went into the hospital. That one needs another 2,500 words, possibly more. It is going to be a challenge though because I stopped right in the middle of a sex scene and it is hard to start back up again right in the flow of porn, you know? If I have time, I would also like to finish the little Leverage fic I am working on. It needs another 1,000 words and I figure I can work on it when I am feeling tapped out on the other stories. That's about 9,000 words in six weeks - I can do that, right?
