Star Trek Voyager fanfiction stories, written by me.

There’s good news and bad news

The good news is, well, I’ve started another story. The bad news is, I’ve started another story and I haven’t done anything with the other two that are partially done.

With one I just can’t think of a way to resolve the story and with the other, I think I may’ve painted myself into a corner. I’ll have to stand here and wait until it dries before there’s anything I can do.

The new one? Well, that’s a bit…weird. So far, it starts out fun, has a dramatic bit, and then carries on being fun. Again though…the ending?

Phhhhht. I haven’t a clue.

Procrastination and BLTS

I’ve found a whole new way to avoid working on my current unfinished stories. Revisit and revise my old ones.

This has been prompted by a request to post my stories on the Better Living through TrekSmut (BLTS) site. Even though my stories aren’t “smut” really, the site posts all types of Trek stories. So, after some emailing between me and anneinchicago, I’ve taken to going back and re-editing and hopefully soon, some of the larger howlers in Bookends, Milk Run and Baby on Board will be fixed. Let me say that it is ‘weird as’ reading my stuff after all this time.

I wasn’t surprised by the amount of mistakes in say, Bookends. That sucker almost drove me to drink. First I obliterated the whole second part, then when it was redone (albeit completely differently to the original) I had a technological meltdown trying to post it to fanfiction.net (which I no longer really use). Talk about trauma.

Anyway, once they’re done, I’ll redo the googlepages versions and the versions here, but I’m not sure about fanfiction.net. I just don’t know if it’s worth the trouble.

I’m hoping this will all give me a fresh outlook when I return to my current works in progress. I’m stuck with both and just can’t make them work.

Still working

And still working on stories. Just not enough hours in the day.

Have the remains of my NaNoWriMo story almost done, I just need to find an ‘angle’ for the opening and a nice resolution (resolutions being most important in J/C’dom). Also working on a fluffier piece that has the same problem i.e. no start or finish. The middles are fine though.

I’ve made a few edits to Checkmate, which I’ll update online as soon as I rouse myself.

The ‘dark one’

Everyone knows that NaNoWriMo is really all about procrastination. I’ve discovered that I’m really good at putting things off to do, well, other things. Like making posts on my blog, for instance.

I should be trying to finish my NaNoWriMo project. It’s not going well. It’s going bad.

Anyway, as I’m experiencing a lull in NaNo-ing, I thought I’d finally publish my dark story, “Fall from Grace“. Special thanks to the extraordinary Elem, who did an amazing job of beta-ing. I’ve made quite a few changes to this story since I got it back from Elem and I just didn’t have the heart to send this monster back to her, so, if there are mistakes, they’re all mine.
