We're Walking, and We're Walking....
Jun. 16th, 2006 12:28 pmI've been walking to work the last few weeks, and it really is very conducive to writing. Well, it's conducive to mental writing at least! Stories just sort of unreel in my mind as I'm walking, and I really wish there was someway way to transfer that as it was happening. I just hope I remember all the great dialogue when it comes time to actually write it!
This morning, a scene in one of the stories I'm working in, that takes place in a video store, fleshed out some. Now I'm trying to decide on a movie Methos would really hate. It's a humorous scene (one hopes!). I have a couple of thoughts as to what they might be and why. The two leading contenders: Camelot and Gladiator. I have a few others in mind, but those two are current favourites :) Any other suggestions, and a reason why if you're feeling like putting that much thought into it, are more than welcome!

Because I Have No life
Jun. 16th, 2006 07:15 pmSo it's Friday night, and like all happening single women, I'm sitting in front of the computer :) so yet again, I stealing borrowing a meme from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
medie. (say that five times fast!) (hey, we share a birthday, so I'm compelled to fall into sync with her)
Ask Me My Fandom Opinion
How this works:
1. Ask me onefandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific,general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general.Whichever works for me
2. ONE DAMN QUESTION.-- Heh, well, you can ask more , I'm the chatty type and we all know it
3. That's it. It can be as normal or odd as you like.
Speaking of memes, I was trying to think what would be a really strange one during my hell day. Know what I came up with? Pick a scar on your body and tell us how you got it! Clever, no?
[sigh] Let's see if I can get some actual fic writing done tonight.

Regret Eternal
Jun. 16th, 2006 07:42 pmThe lovely mmapmaker challenged me into believing I could actually write just 100 words, so this is for her.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Glass under my feet, his presence fading. He told me he’s leaving because of what I’ve done, but I know that’s not true; it’s because of what I have not done. I should have judged him, turned him away, rejected him utterly. That was what he wanted, what he needed to justify leaving. Because leaving was what he did best. I should have remembered that. Maybe then it wouldn’t have felt as if my soul were dying, maybe then I wouldn’t have hated him. But it was far too late now; loving him was a regret I would never outlive.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Having never written a drabble, I don't know what the posting etiquette is, so suffice to say it's Highlander and Methos -- like that's a surprise :)
Later: you can find the 'sequel' here.
