fic-writing

[auntiemeesh]

I wish the actual writing of fic was as easy as the writing of thoughts about the fic. I've got several pages of notes, ideas about environment, societal information about the off-world aliens, power relationships, etc. What I'm still lacking is more than a mere glimmering of a plot, sadly. And then actually sitting down and being disciplined enough to actually write the story itself.

Still, this is more than I've had in a very, very, very long time, so I'll go with it. Maybe I'll actually get fic written before all is said and done, and that would be a wonderful thing. I really miss writing. A lot. More than a lot, actually. It's too bad that the only thing I'm even marginally successful at writing is hobbit-fic, since I've pretty much moved on from my interest in writing hobbit fic. It was just so easy to write, and nothing else has been, since then. *sigh*

Anyway, I'm not giving up! Now that I've got a little momentum with this SGA whatever it is that I'm working on, I'm not going to stop.

Good luck!

Thanks. The trick is to not just let what I've already written die a slow, lingering death of hard-drive ennui.

I know how you feel! I have little snippets of ideas in my head that sometimes make it to the paper, but I lack the things you got, but it never develops till any stories.

Oh, I know. I've got whole folders of little snippets of ideas. One image or scene, attached to nothing, with nowhere to go. I'm kind of hoping that one day I'll come up with the perfect idea to tie them all together into an actual story.

do they have sports in SGA-dom?

Well, I'm sure they do. Sheppard loves college football and in the first episode of the show, we learn that his one personal item is a copy of the game in which Doug Flutie made his Hail Mary pass (or was it a catch?).
