So I had to drop out of [livejournal.com profile] hobbitstory story again (Sorry about that [livejournal.com profile] grav_ity - but I may just start posting individual chapters or something?) There was just no way in hell I could get a full story out by the end of the month. Not with the various original fic deadlines I had coming up for anthologies and such.

It's kinda a double edge sword right now: I'm so freaking thrilled that professional writing stuff is happening now, and there are some amazing projects I'm getting to be invovled with. But I'm really missing fanfic. I keep entering fic exchanges so I at least write some small stuff to help calm the urge to fic, but it's really not helping my longer fic wants.

Oh well - them's the breaks, I guess. Anyone maybe have hints for juggling the two? I don't want to end up feeling like I am missing out on fic entirely - it's sorta taking the place of original fic as my "hobby" so I have something writerly that I don't have to stress about perfection quite as much.

So after finding out my work schedules going to need to be more intense than ususal, and after NOT finishing my other novel this weekend like I'd hoped, I was very close to dropping out of NaNo all together.

However, after some discussion with my betacreature Askita, I think I'm going to continue to do the challenge just in a much different way.

My goal for November: 50,000 words as per the challenge.

However, I'm opening that up to ALL of my writing for this month, be it finishing my novel, Taking Eden, or even fanfiction. My goal is just to write like a fiend and keep track of all of the totals.

*nods* I think I can do this.

Hmm, now I wonder if I should plan some kind of uber prize for myself if I pull it off... *ponders*

Hey guys,

Just FYI, I'm getting ready to test out the filter for those of you who want to check out my original fic stuffs. If you want to get on the list and did NOT comment on the last entry, please let me know and I'll add you!

*huggles*

OK guys, so I have this novel in progress sitting at 87,000 words. And I desperately need to just FINISH IT!

Thus, considering how freaking awesome you all were with the cheerleadering for [livejournal.com profile] hetbigbang, and all, I thought I'd see if any of you would be interested at snippets/fanmixes/covers/whatever the hell my brain chooses to share about that particular project.

Now just to be clear: I DO intend to publish, so this will only be viewable by the people on the filter, assuming I can figure out the filter lol.

But yeah, anyone interested? I know a few of you who have said yes, but I wanted to get another number before I start the posting.

Once AP is completed and in the crazy editting stage, I may share some of my other original stuffs too. Most will be fantasy/spiritually driven, steampunkish, sci-fi, and/or all of the above depending on the crazy muse. (Who btw actually is one of our protagonists in AP. He got pissy until I gave him his own book. Cocky little so-and-so.)

So yeah, just let me know!
