Yay! Weekend!
Nov. 25th, 2005 05:48 pmWarning! There is some highly random stuff behind the tags. Read at your own risk. No, it's absolutely work-safe, just silly.
Week of utter disasters at school survived. Wonders never cease. So, before the next disastrous week starts, I'll try to do some writing.
Let's start with the Ardaverse news:
Lady Masterblott has beta-ed the first nine pieces of my Sekrit Advent Project. May the Valar bless that wonderful woman. The bad news is, I only wrote one more piece of the stuff, meaning that I still have 14 more to go. *groans*
Plus, LMB has made some very insightful comments after some of the pieces - have I told the woman is a marvel? - so that I might have to change a few things on the stuff that's already done. *groans some more*
Oh, and
cirdan_havens surprised me with an unexpected gift. But I must not tell about it yet. Super Sekrit Stuff. Hehehe. Um, no, actually, it only needs a few months of work before it'll be publicly presentable.
And then there is the other Sekrit Projekt:
The older one which is still very much unfinished. My wrong entirely. Poor
eye_of_a_cat has done her next part. Unfortunately, there's my next part that needs to be added first, and I'm nowhere near done with it. In fact, I run into a block after the second frigging sentence during summer and never got any further. *sighs*
What a shame. That projekt is so much fun.
Concerning the Alternate Trekkiverse:
Some poor soul asked me about Alternate Caretaker. Unfortunately, there's still little hope for that story. Next chapter is still stuck after a page and a half.
I gave a glance the first Alternate Equinox last night again, after quite some time, but all I can think of are... erm... smut scenes, which are nice and good, but won't move the plot forward at this point.
I've done some translating for the next part of the Lost Years series (Original Trek/Original Galactica x-over), but it's jut too much effort right now. Especially as the Prologue is written in Hungarian, and thus very hard to translate into English. The grammatical structure is so alien, I always end up writing impossible sentences. Translating German parts is a lot easier... or writing directly in English. Woe me, as I have a weird mother tongue! (It's beautiful, mind you. It's just hell to translate into any other language.)
Other writing projects:
Well, they are dead. No time, no energy, no nothing. Birthright 3 would be the easiest to write, as it basically follows the 1st season Andromeda episode, but I can't bring up the energy to do so.
Got two rather insane ideas about writing Andromeda/Stargate SG-1 and Andromeda/SG-Atlantis crossovers, but I resisted valiantly. One could only tear oneself into so many pieces. And humankind still hasn't decided to pay me for the privilege of living on the same planet as I, so I still have to work for a living. Life is so unfair...
On other news, Sunday is Advent 1. Which means that I'll be remembering the convent again, and probably being moody and depressed, as every year since I left. Which was in 1988, so I have a fairly big amount of experience doing so. At times like this (Advent, Lent and the likes) I still miss that place teribly. Ah, well, it was not meant to be.
