I am a loon ...
Is there anyone here who was unaware of this little factlet about me? Because you won't be after reading this!
I have actually stepped into the quicksand that is known as The Ultimate Fanfic Challenge, aka fanfic100. I have committed to writing 100 pieces of fan fiction, each of which can be no fewer than 100 words, about a particular fandom. In my case, that fandom is Battlestar Galactica, Commander William Adama in particular. Obviously I hear no gasps of surprise. ;^)
But it gets better! Each fic must correspond to a prompt word, to be found on the table behind this cut:
001.Beginnings.
002.Middles.
003.Ends.
004.Insides.
005.Outsides.
006.Hours.
007.Days.

So whenever I post something, I'll turn the prompt word into a link to the corresponding story, got that? Good. Fortunately I can use stuff written for theatrical_muse as commander_adama, including the stuff I've already written, but still. @_@ And thank the Infinite there are no set deadlines. O_o
ETA: The squares with the light purple backgrounds contain my most recent additions.
My first updates will be made tomorrow, when I put in the half-dozen ficlets I've already done. Just gotta figure out which prompt words work with each ...
So if kimbari jumped off the Empire State Building, would I have to do it too? X-D
ETA PIMPAGE: I have also joined my very first ficathon, one devoted to BSG secondary characters. I asked for a Hotdog fic, and we'll see who I get to write on 10-17!
If you think you might be interested, details are here.
