This is not a fic

Jul 26, 2011 19:47

I'm at some odd 8k words (once again with names) on the fic I've been writing. I was pretty sure it was going to be my CLFF entry for challenge 42.

And now, recapped in a convo with BetaM: I don't think my story fits the prompt, nor do I think I should change it so that it does.

And then there was: Yeah. I'm doing that thing where you ( Read more... )

eggs over easy, ficcing

LOL. If the extras aren't working, don't force it. As long as the story isn't *anti*-CLFF, just stick a note in at the top explaining it didn't quite fit and submit it anyhow. You really think we're going to care? ^^

^___^ I didn't figure the group would mind.

Now I just have to end it and make it make sense. I fixed the name thing and closed some holes, and then finally had to walk away, feeling so nonplussed by the fact that I don't know what this fic is doing!

I'm 93% sure there's a point to be had someplace, but there are a few things here and there that suggest that I've lost the thread of it. What's the grace period looking like?

*shifty-eyed* On the bright side, it's a bit closer to clexy goodness than it was last time I complained about its uncooperativeness. On the downside, it looks like I was trying to pick squares off my h/c bingo card at random.
