Sometimes, words happen.

Now that school has stopped, I finally have time to write! This is a good thing. I celebrated by starting a new project instead of continuing work on anything I've already started. Oops?

Today, I reorganized my hard-copy draft folder, which got dropped in the throes of dorm-packing and exploded all over the floor. It contains ghosts of things which perished amidst the ominous clicking noises of DiskFail '09. Someday, I hope to resurrect them.

Bizarrely, I'm finding that Fictional Prowess Panda actually motivates me to write. Internet time-sink fail, productivity win?

I'm finding that half the fun of writing this stupidly overambitious Leverage fic is populating its criminal underworld with wacky original characters. I think I may be doing fanfiction wrong.

Running away to the woods this weekend; packing pencils and paper. We'll see what happens.

Edit: Fixed link.

Maybe I don't like live fandoms as much as I thought I did.

I really did not need to discover and read the word of god blog for Leverage. While it is totally classy that this guy takes the time to field fan questions and share obscure tidbits, I really, really can't handle all his unsubtle broadcasting about Upcoming Massive Drama.

(interlude while I read kfm's latest post, having pulled up the site to get the above link. self control FAIL.)

I am teetering on the edge of my seat, and also pissed off. Edge-of-the-seat because damn, some of the upcoming craziness sounds awesome; pissed because they're fucking up my canon-arc forecast something hardcore, and they kind of gutted my great big project fic. Bastards. Who do they think they are?
