October update
2 October 2017 11:26So September happened. Now it's October and I think that after much though I will be pulling even further away from the TF community. It's a pity since I have unfinished works posted but I'm just finding that I really don't care any more. Writing for Transformers has become a chore and until something new comes up to refresh my interest I'll be taking a further step back from the fandom. It doesn't help any that the one thing that's really running through my mind is a TFs-as-humans fic that I am having a lot of trouble plotting out the general plans and I an really struggling with gender since I may have to genderbend some characters away from the standard male. .... It's all thanks to a tweet of James Roberts that was never applied to the canon.
That means that the planned NaNo fic this year will be a Fallout 4 walkthrough fic wherein both Nate and Nora survive and get out of the vault (mostly based off of original planned art that implies that the spouse holding Shaun is not shot). I want to explore some of the questions that are not asked in the game and look at some of the roads not taken. I especially want to call out the various factions for their myopia because it always struck me that the Sole Survivor was looking at all of this from the outside, and therefore had a different perspective. Especially if you chose to make your character a person of colour in that world. The advantage to doing this is that everything is already plotted out for me at a higher level so it'll take some stress off of me and get the creative juices flowing again.
I'm debating on posting ongoing updates here as I complete the day's writing. It'll be a rough draft but posting might also help keep things on track.
So, that's the plan. We'll see how it works.
