Hey, I'm still writing that thing that I'm writing, but I'm having trouble getting the boys to shut up. Seriously, they will not. Stop. Talking. Does anyone want to read chatty sex? Because right now it's in danger of reading like this:

Wilson cast an appreciative glance over House's naked body. "Who would win in a fight," he asked, "Batman or Hal ( Read more... )

writing, slash, house/wilson

I'd want to read it!

Lawl. I kind of want to write superhero smut, now.

Right! I'm going to stop this paranoid procrastination and get on with it, I reckon.

Maybe I'll sleep first, actually.

LOL AT ALL THESE PEOPLE DEFENDING BATMAN WHICH ISN'T WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO *INNOCENT FACE*. BUT DUDE, YOU HAD HOUSE AND WILSON MENTION BATMAN. WHILE HAVING SEX. THIS IS ALREADY AN A+++ FIC.

LAWL, AT LEAST WE'VE ESTABLISHED THE BATMAN LOVE

I'M KIND OF TEMPTED TO WRITE THIS ONE NOW. I COULD WORK IN A ZOMBIES VS VAMPIRES ANGLE. IT'S MILDLY DISTURBING TO ME THAT I HAD BOTH OF THOSE CONVERSATIONS WITH A FRIEND OF MINE LATELY. NOT DURING SEX

Suggestion: Write as much as you need to for the first draft and then get a beta you can take real concrit from to apply the machete as needed.

I think that's a good idea. I can be a perfectionist sometimes, so I don't like the idea of presenting something to a beta which isn't already of a decent standard. But hey, we all make mistakes, right?

It's not necessarily a mistake. Just think of it as extra footage which needs to be edited to make the best possible movie. I've read a lot of H/W stories which started off strongly and then lost me because good banter became too much banter.

I once had a whole opening section of a story I'd written amputated, not because it wasn't good writing per se, but because it wasn't doing anything for the story.

That's what your beta is there for.

Yeah, I think economy is probably key. I'm one of those people who can get caught up in the dialogue to the detriment of the narrative (such as it is).

Anyway, I should probably see how it shapes up before I start worrying too much. If I get hung up on the details I'll never finish the damn thing.
