random blather about fanfic

mhalachaiYou all may have been noticing that none of the WIPs have been updated recently. There are two reasons for this:
1. Shiny new obsession: Oh, Stargate Atlantis. How you occupy the 5% of my brain devoted to fanfic/fandom (the other 95% is doing the important stuff, like regulating breathing and bad posture and wondering how they got the caramel in the caramilk bar). I'm fully aware that this will soon pass, or at least sublimate into the mess of other fandoms and, more importantly, fanfic in my head.
And yes, that noise you heard was me sighing at the inevitability of me starting a rather longepic story in SGA. It's probably going to be a shippy fic and I get to address that age-old question: So, were there any criminal Ancients before they all got Ascendy? Yeah, it's going to be really cheesy, but whatever. I don't plan to start this right now; I still have to get the plot down. And I have to ensure that I don't write the whole damned thing in present tense.
2. I'm stuck midway through not one, not two, but three boring chapters (Magnolia, Balancing Act, Inevitable), and I have to admit my enthusiasm for writing anything longer than 1,000 words has waned. I'm not in a rut: I know how the stories are going to go and all that. It's the typing that's getting to me. Maybe a re-read of the stories is in order.
Long story short (TOO LATE) things are puttering along nicely. So, all fics (including the ficlette fiasco stories) will come when they come :)
Oh, also I'm putting my SGA fics up on Wraithbait here.
