It's a veritable Spot book

Aug 14, 2010 15:32

So I can't write with an outline, because once the story is told - even to myself - I can't write it. Which is normally fine. However, right now my RPF big bang is sitting at 21K and has no ending in sight. None. Zero. There's not even a vague hazy outline of an ending. The thing is, it's mostly a character piece about self-discovery and acceptance so it could end *anywhere*, but something feels like it's missing and I don't know what it is. I need to send the whole thing to some people and have them give me their thoughts. Sigh. Why do I do this again?

I used to have tons of bookshelves filled with every book ever, but when we had kids, I was merciless in going through my books and so now I just have one bookcase that has all of my most precious books. All of them would actually qualify for this. Heh.

Tonight I'm going to meet up with belmanoir and we're going to go to dinner somewhere exciting and then go see The Secret to a Happy Ending. The DBT seem determined not to come to Seattle, so we're taking the next best thing.

dance monkey dance!, monkey see monkey do, read this, dbt, writing
