So I was sitting here, doing an online jigsaw in an effort to not think about the perfectly doable housework that I'd take care of in a couple of hours if I could only shake off the mental inertia, when a fic started writing itself in my head. It's one I started after seeing the Doctor Who episode "Midnight" for the first time, which was in its first run on BBC America, so a very long time ago. I ended up shelving it in my INACTIVE folder with about eight other fics to keep it company.
Now it's shoved everything else -- including a much more recent fic I'm trying to finish -- out of my head. And it's reminded me of an icon I've seem around, with a tiny adorable bunny and the caption, "Write me, bitch." Maybe I need a macro of that?

t_eyla. What the heck, I've got a lot more WIPs than finished fics anyway.
Post a single sentence from each WIP you have. No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence!
( I need a bigger head! )

Please don't hate me ...
Mar. 15th, 2008 02:53 pmTo Friends, communities, all you awesome fanfic authors, and anyone else who gives a flying fig (hope that's not considered obscene ;) ) :
Yes, I've been reading your posts! No, I haven't been responding that much, darn it :( I keep planning to go back and comment properly, and then I don't ... no good excuses, really. No natural (or unnatural) disasters, exploding toasters, cats taking over the world ...
Just feeling a little depressed, and a lot overwhelmed. I just watched the third season Doctor Who "42," though, which kind of helped put things in perspective. There's nothing quite like seeing somebody having a worse day than yours, is there? Let's hear it for schadenfreude! :)
In fact, I feel so much better, I'm going to write out some New LJ's Resolutions. I hereby resolve to:
1. Continue organizing Friends Page filters to make it easier to keep up with reading it. (There goes one excuse.)
2. Continue organizing "bookmark posts" for Friends Page to make it easier to keep track of what I've read, commented on, etc. (And another one.)
3. Comment immediately, if not sooner, on fics and the like, even if it's something like, "this is way cool, I'll come back to comment intelligently later when my brain is working." (Bonus points for actually going back and doing that.)
4. Post more often, and with less content, to keep in the habit and connected. (And to fill up everyone elses' Friends Pages with annoying drivel, mwaah hah hah! ;) )
5. Finish crackish Torchwood fanfic and post, already.
6. Duck flying tomatoes ;) (see #5)
Off to start on #1.
