Haha, your Big Bang wants to be a NaNo. XD

[iesika.livejournal.com]

My big bang will be bigger than a nano. There's about 18 hours of in story time left, and that time includes a school dance, a super-fight, and some very confused make-outs. And other things!

EPIC. Just wow.

[shiny-glor-chan.livejournal.com]

Wow, I'm in awe that you have it so planned out. Plans for my own fics make me twitch. My muses seem to like chaos. XD

If one invests several months and 50000 words into something, one ought to know how it will end.

>>;; Not how my mind works, but I'm rather weird that way. XD

This is not meant to sound condescending, but didn't you tell me you hadn't really finished anything NaNo length? This may be why.

I've been writing for kind of a while, and I've learned my lesson the hard way about not having clear progression to an end point in mind. I've left behind many an abandoned WIP, and several epic-length things with dreadfully unsatisfying endings.

DOUBLE BARREL BIG BANG!

[shiny-glor-chan.livejournal.com]

Well, usually I had an ending in mind, but no bits to get to said ending, then I usually fell out of fandom before I gave much of a damn.

...okay, sorry, but the first part wasn't condescending, but the 'I've been writing for kind of a while' really was. I've been writing fic for seven years. I just haven't had a fandom I stuck with long enough for something too long to happen.

I really didn't want to sound that way, so I apologize. I was just trying to share a bit of my own writing experience (15 years or so of it, which makes me feel older and wiser than I am, sometimes). I know everyone does everything a bit differently, so please don't mind me.

You are both ridiculous and awesome <3333333333

I DON'T WANNA GO TO BED

OG OT DEB!

[faile-neume.livejournal.com]

I can't! I just remembered that a new episode of Glee came out the other night so I need to watch it.

[faile-neume.livejournal.com]

Oh dammit Glee isn't uploaded anywhere and I can't be bothered to find a torrent D:

I'mma go to bed <33333

I'm going back and forth writing and editing, now, but I'm about 1/4-1/3 through Friday, if you haven't seen. Kon has a spiffy new suit. Because Tim doesn't trust him to dress himself and he's staking a claim.

I'm aiming to finish this weekend. Say a prayer to Rao for me.
