Requested: One "Hell Yeah", Extra Loud
Nov. 2nd, 2006 01:44 pmI have FINALLY finished reformatting Blue Eyes. Again. Wanna know how to loathe a 300 page story you gave your all to? Re-read it three times in succession because you're too stupid to have remembered the whole TXT issue of going back and re-paragraphing 300 pages of text.
Actually, that's a lie. I don't hate it. I still love much of it. I hate my repetetive language, I hate the swoony melodrama that I'm prone too, I hate my inability to be concise, but I love what writing that story taught me, and I love the world that I half created and I love the characters. I really do. I've spent so much time with this story - writing, editing, formatting it TWICE - & OMG IF I EVER FIND THE PERSON WHO HACKED LEVIATHAN I AM SO KICKING HIS ASS. Please to be going to give
shrift Praises and booze and coffee and naked cabana boys right now - that I can absolutely see it and have to whap myself upside the head and remind myself that it's not real, it's not at all canon. Although I frequently have to do that with other people's stories as well:)
So, in celebration, the meme making the rounds:
Give me two characters from two different fandoms with which I am familiar*, and I will invent a relationship for them.
*By familiar, I mean having heard of. I am so willing to make shit up you have no idea, but it's helpful if I actually know source material for one of them:) And if any gives me John Crichton/Randy n'Earl I will love them forever.
