I still haven't done my New Years' post yet. I'm going to, I'm still formulating what I need to work on this year. Time Management I think.
I love your idea about the husband. Sounds perfect. I'm sure he doesn't buy you eight books of which four are perfect and on your wish list and the others are a total WTF. But I'm not complaining too much.
Glad you got the excellent gift cards and I can't wait to read the sequel to "Open Ends". I'm really digging the whole Brass/Annie thing.
I feel like I'm all over the place with regards to writing. One minute it's this fic, then it's that fic, then it's the one over there. I swear I have writing ADD. Right now the Brass/Annie fic is burning a hole in my brain. That could all change tomorrow. I think this is the worst part about finishing a fic: I can't get focused on the next one.
Two questions for you: 1) Geekfiction Smutathon? 2) Have you checked out 1hour2write? I'm thinking about it. Then again, it might make my ADD even worse.
I'm really glad you pointed out those two things. My friends filters have fallen into disuse, which is a sure sign I need to start weeding, or at least change up how I interact with LJ. But on those two things, okay here goes...yes to both. In fact, just to get Appalachia a kick in the pants, the GF fic will be an Annie one.
ADD doesn't sound like a bad thing right now. I get totally tied around the axle on one fic. I need to learn to switch over to different ones to get the muse kickstarted. Considering how focus-challenged I am you'd think that'd be how I work. But no.
I also need to spend more time with Brass and that always helps my muse. Haven't seen CSI for almost a week.
Well, I signed up to 1hour2write and even participated in the chat and writing session this evening (the late one). I got 600 words written on the Brass/Annie fic in that one hour so it definitely helped.
I'd love to do the GF Smutathon--maybe write a Brass/Sofia first time fic--but the last time I got rolling on this Brass/Annie fic it got tossed aside for the Brasslove ficathon and it's taken me until now to get back into it. So, if you decide to do a GF fic, I will cheer you on. And maybe that distraction will do you some good. I do have to say it helps to have a few WIPs to fall back on every now and then.
And yes, definitely spend more time with Brass. Maybe seeing Jim in the LVPD windbreaker in the new episode this week will give your muse a kick.
