7-7-7 Writing meme - any Pros WIPs out there?

Jan 12, 2016 16:07

Just back from a morning's cobwebs (volunteering *g*) and came across this meme as done by fiorenza_a, and thought - fun! Pros post!

1. Go to page 7 (or 77) of your current WIP.
2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next 7 lines - sentences or paragraphs - and post them as they’re written.
Tag seven other people.

I did think I might have to adapt it to ( Read more... )

Oh my goodness, I love the sound of your WIP!

Here's a bit from one of mine, now I have to come up with seven folks to tag, eh? And repost this in my LJ *g*.

Under Rug Swept

Bodie shifted up onto an elbow, dislodging Doyle's hand, and reached to sweep a thumb beneath his partner's eye, brushing away the wetness there. “Then …?”

“I'm happy, you cretin,” Doyle growled, and his surly, embarrassed tone was immediately reassuring. “I just never ….”

“Never what?” Bodie spread his hand across Doyle's chest, cataloguing the delightful feel of soft, springy hair catching at his fingers.

Doyle sniffed again and shrugged, or as much as he could while lying down.

Oh, that was quick! And I'd say ooh yes, do post it separately, but I see you have... yeay! *g*

And awww - such a moment you've posted here -definitely need to read more of that one! *g*

Thank you! Did I never show you this one?

I don't remember it... although I will grant you that doesn't really mean you've never shown it me - but I don't think so.. *g*

I'm liking the kinky bit - I do have a number of Pros WIP, so just for you, from one I've nearly finished 7-7-7:

''Six pounds, I've been dodging the doctor.''

''Look mate, you're not going to get out of attending the check ups. Cowley's made it mandatory.''

Doyle looked morose ''I know. Wily Old Bastard's got a chart. Gave me a scotch and tore me off a strip when it was only four pounds, but I can't keep it on and train at the same time.''

Bodie got up, went to one of his cupboards, took something out and deposited it in front of Doyle ''Allow me to introduce you to my friend, Mr Mars Bar.''

Doyle looked up from studying the offering to protest ''You must be joking. I want to put on weight, not have a heart attack.''

''Yeah, well, when you start putting on weight you can elbow them, until then, after every meal, mate.''

''What about me teeth?''

Ah, you do have Pros WIPs as well as the other ones you've been posting! And interesting... hee, ...me teeth! *g*

I have WIP coming out of the wazoo ! fiorenza_a January 12 2016, 18:25:05 UTC

I listed the totals and me most pressing projects on day twenty-nine of me November 30 Days thingy (if you're curious).

I have five of them sat as drafts on AO3 right now and am working on one of the not-on-AO3 ones as we speak.

This one is a sort of case fic and I've had quite bit of fun writing it.

I have loads of WIP over seven pages. I rotate them until they get finished. Some languish more than others. I must say other folks WIP are whetting me appetite...

RE: I have WIP coming out of the wazoo ! byslantedlight January 12 2016, 20:39:27 UTC

Looks like you have much to be going on with, and you sound very efficient about it! Shall look forward to the Pros stories...

Ooh I've been tagged! *looks proudly at tag*

Will see what I can find :D

byslantedlight January 12 2016, 17:55:24 UTC

You has been tagged! And yeay for things to find - I shall keep an eye out... *vbg*

msmoat January 12 2016, 20:11:57 UTC

Why is it that it's always the kinky bits that turn up in these things? *g*

Sounds intriguing, your story does.

Hmm. I do have a Pros WIP, since I started it for DIALJ and then didn't finish it in time. It's not 7 pages, but I'm sure it's more than 7 paragraphs. I think....

byslantedlight January 12 2016, 20:41:02 UTC

Hee - it does seem to work out that way... *g* And oh good - shall keep my eye out! *vbg* (I must admit I looked at the meme and thought 7 pages or 77 pages - those are impressive WIPs! *g*)
