wyntir_knightI've finished that "fluff" piece that I was complaining about a while back - the night terrors one. It turned dark and mean and broken, but it's finally drafted. It's topped out at almost 4k words, and I still need to revise it, but at least it's finally out of my head. And I think that for this one I might actually need a beta. I'll think on it and make a decision later. Right now I'm going to let it sit and get some distance before I look at it again.
... I have learned though that I really, really like to torture poor Smokescreen ...
So, update. February was productive. I created "The Sandbox" as a place for the random fics. The Gift and Roleplay were previously written and never posted but The Choice was completed in February after languishing since 2015. I also completed the above fic this month after starting and abandoning it in 2016. I've been working on my Transformers/MCU crossover - one chapter of which was posted here. I've decided that this won't be posted to AO3 until I have a good buffer and I won't be leaving people hanging for months or years should I get hit with writer's block. And I've been poking away at a new chapter of "You Remind Me of Someone I Used to Know". I really need to decide there for how long I'm going to have Smokescreen and Ratchet dancing around each other and if Jazz'll just get fed up and spill the beans. We'll see.
And onto the March plans. I need to continue with my two ongoing fics and I have several half-finished pieces in my drafts folder. But, Big Bang has started again and I am sorely tempted to sign up. Problem is, I'm not sure what to write. I have a couple of fic ideas that might work for it but I'm really not sure that I can manage 20K. Sign-ups close on March 22nd so I have time to decide. I have a couple of started fics that haven't been published that might work, I just need to decide where I am going with them. Plotting isn't exactly my strong suit. I'm more of a pantser or maybe a plantser at best. So, yeah, a couple of vague ideas that can stand on their own. But I really need to think on it because the last thing I want to do is leave an artist in the lurch by dropping out halfway through. That's what happened last time and I was "lucky" that the artist had taken on two writers and hadn't started mine yet so the news was taken with relief.
So that's what I have.
