I've managed to spend enough time on the computer today to write a little of my spn_50states challenge, backup this account, and start using semagic (again. I used it for a long time a number of years ago, but then it started not posting for me and not saving drafts and I quit. I missed it, though, and have it back again. We'll see how long it works for me this time).

spn_50states: It has become a ridiculous (and ridiculously exciting) crossover. I don't know why I decided to do it this way, but I am enjoying the challenge and the character interaction. Of course, this means no one will want to read it (between the crossover and the Jo hatred in fandom, plus the lack of Sam & Dean and especially Sam/Dean) but I am having fun writing it, at least. (I'm writing about Hawaii, so of course I'm writing a Supernatural/Blue Crush crossover where the two main characters are Lena and Jo, with the possibility of Lena/Jo. Anne Marie/Eden is a given, of course.)

LJ Wank: I don't have much to say about this. I'll stay here, I love my layout here, and all my stories are backed up elsewhere (and now my journal is backed up, too), but I may do accounts at other places, too, just in case. My big thing is, the reason I'm here is the community, so if you all go elsewhere, I will go there, I'll just stay here, too.

HP: I don't even know if I'm going to get the book tonight. I always wanted to be with thestalkycop in England for the last one, and as that obviously didn't happen, I'm not all that excited about a midnight release. Not to mention I don't intend to read it tonight anyway, and I'm having bad side effects to a new medicine, so I'm dizzy and, right after I take it, exhausted. As I take it at night, that doesn't bode well to staying awake for the release or to driving home after.

Of course, just when I decide I'll wait for tomorrow, I then want it right now. Who knows what I'll do.

I'm going to go lay down for awhile again, see if this current bout of dizziness will pass.

Edited to Add: Okay, so just in case, I'm also escritoireazul at insanejournal and greatestjournal. I think IJ is probably the better choice; I've used GJ before and was not impressed. Like I said, though, where fandom goes, I will follow. I was a part of fandom long before LJ and I'll continue to be whether it, as a whole, stays here or not.

At a coffee shop. Have a giant iced tea, just finished a bagel, and am writing.

Current files open:

+ "eden in the morning" (working title) - A Blue Crush fic about, shockingly, Eden in the mornings. I think I've finally figured out how to write it.
+ "Snake in the Grass (Wearing Dog Skin)" - A The Breed fic for a ficathon.
+ two beta copies of "Snake in the Grass (Wearing Dog Skin)"
+ "The Marching Band Refused to Yield" (working title) - A Bring It On alternate universe about cheerleaders, marching bands, and the way Missy and Torrance love each other.

It's a shame messenger seems to be down right now. I could use some company.

You would think, after writing nikitangel's birthday story, I would swear off new fandoms for awhile. You would think I would learn. You would be wrong, but, you know, that would be logical.

I really want to write The Breed girl slash.

I'm going to have to price it locally tomorrow and see if anyone can beat Amazon. Not likely, considering there's only about one option in town, but I would really like to get started on this story (it's for the Twice Told Fandom challenge), instead of the one I already started for it.

I just have the perfect scenario. Damn it. Another new fandom in less than a month? I used to be a one fandom woman, you know. I swear. About ten years ago, but still.

Edited to Add: Okay, it is going to be very hard to write this, because the character's name is spelled Sara and it needs an h, people. Just ask thestalkycop. I've typed Sarah so many billions of times I don't know if I'll be able to make the switch.

While writing prompts for smallfandomfest, I think I just inspired myself. Which is pretty much the last thing I needed to do, a new story to start, especially after nikitangel convinced me to expand the Letty-as-Slayer section of her birthday fic. (Which, I still have to finish the birthday fic itself.)

However, The Lost Boys, Star/Maria, human contact just made me go, "Oh, I really want to write that."

So we'll see.

(In other news, I am feeling very blah right now. WisCon and the trip to see nikitangel can't come soon enough. I need the energy of being around my friends again, I think.)

(In other, other news, my sister bought her very first comic books on Saturday, while I was with her encouraging her. So now I've read Buffy season eight issues one and two. I'm not really a huge fan so far.)

X-Men

I think I'm writing two separate stories for the xmmficathon. I didn't intend to do this, of course, but I like both stories a lot. One is more developed than the other (and closer to my original idea on seeing the prompt), so I think I'll have to stick with it and maybe finish the other one later.

Of course, there's still a little while before they're due, so maybe I'll just write both of them. Who knows. I'm still really pleased with my assignment, and I enjoy writing it.

The Mighty Ducks

I feel kind of sick today, and even though I slept close to twelve hours last night, I'm already tired again. I'm glad I have the day off tomorrow, I didn't get anything done today except for a little writing.

So instead of being out with my friends, I'm at home watching D3, where the Mighty Ducks go to prep school. I've been thinking a lot about Queertet Revisited while watching it, of course, and I know more where Goldberg's plot thread is going, now. I always had a vague idea, but now I know more about his motivation. This is pleasing.

I also kind of want to write Julie/Connie after watching this movie again. Not in Queertet, of course, but maybe in a little one shot (which I hope won't turn into a mini-series like the Goldberg/Russ one shot did).

Horror Movies

I watch two complete crap horror movies today, though one was at least better than the other. thestalkycop recommended Black Christmas and for the first time with one of her movies, I have no idea why. Then I watched Woods of Evil, which had a good, if cheesy premise, but turned out to be way amateur. It was so bad moments were hilarious just because it was such crap--and I don't mean bad in that good way cheesy horror movies are bad.

I really should go ahead and go to bed, because I want to see how much I can write tomorrow, if I take regular breaks but don't have anything planned. I meant to do that today, but not feeling well didn't really help.

So I just went and bought Mean Girls so I can write femslash. I? Am so cool. This story idea? Also so cool. I'm half-afraid it's already been done, because I've only read one Mean Girls story and it was written specifically for me (I love you, Sarah), so I have no idea what is out there in the fandom.

However, I love Regina. Love her. She's so bitchy and wicked and evil. She reminds me of Shauna.

How can I not love this movie? Bitchy, caculating, evil Regina. High school students acting like animals. I've done more than one project about animal behavior in humans, and evolutionary psychology and oh. This movie just covered some of the more fun points of it. Amazing, absolutely fabulous.

I should get back to this story. I had another idea, but one of the lines in the movie gave me a scene which won't go away, so I'm going to write it instead, and leave the other one for another time. So much fanfic this weekend, I'm thrilled with my writing.

See the icon? Sarah made it to go with the story. It makes me smile. More people should write Mean Girls stories.
