A brief Yuletide note: I was talking to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
carlyinrome the other day about what she's going to request for Yuletide, and now I'm curious. What are you guys nominating/requesting/wanting to write? I'm not sure yet what I want to do. Without having looked at eligibility or anything, I'm thinking about asking for fix-it fic for Jurassic World (NEEDS MORE WOMEN. NEEDS MORE LEX AND TIM. ETC.) I should rewatch Werewolf: Beast Among Us, because last year I posted about how I wanted Yuletide fic for it. We'll see if that remains true. Just found my post about the Next Step and how I might want it for Yuletide. I haven't watched anything since that season ended, so I should try to catch up. I might ask for the Agent Pendergast series again; I'd still love a Corrie Swanson Appreciation Life story. And after talking about the Village with Sister K for awhile recently, I may finally request it + werewolves, which I've always wanted. (Maybe not, though. Seems a little too specific for Yuletide.)
( All 30 Days )
5 –If you have ever had a character try to push their way into a fic, whether your "muse" or not, what did you do about it?
This question is for someone with a different writing style, I think. I don't believe that characters can do anything; it's all the writer. And yes, sometimes in the writing (or outlining, or between the two of them, depending on what kind of project I'm working on at the time), I work out that the story needs more or less of something, and sometimes that involves adding a character I didn't intend to write, but that's all about working through the story, not about a character trying to push their way into the fic.
I have a very pragmatic way of looking at my writing process, I think.
