The new chapter is posted to [livejournal.com profile] hiddenrealms.
Warning: this part has mild BDSM, vampires, guy-on-guy action (mentioned) and general cruelty. Read it at your own discretion.

Adults only, please!

And it only took me six years! Go me!

Seriously, I've just posted Chapter 23B - Interlude of The Toreador Chronicles to both FF.Net and the [livejournal.com profile] hiddenrealms LJ comm. I'm very pleased that after six years, the story finally moved on from its dead spot.

Warning: The story is Adult-only, as it contains slash and violence, so don't read it if you aren't interested in that kind of stuff.

Writing three Torchwood-related stories simultaneously is not an easy thing. Even if two of them are set in the same alternate universe. Especially if I don't even have the time and the peace to concentrate on one story properly.

Having said that, I'm making slow process with "Lost in the Past" - the "Gwen and Ianto trapped in 12th-century Welsh" story, which is crossed over with Brother Cadfael, with the still untitled Tosh romance that takes place during the 2nd series Dr. Who finale "Army of Ghosts/Doomsday", and I've just started a series of loosely connected Tosh-Ianto friendship stories with the overall title "Coffee Breaks". Yes, I know I'm insane, why are you asking?

Of course, this means that the two Cadfael stories still in progress - meaning "Vox Angelica" and "Brothers-in-Arms" have been set on the back burner again. Which is especially annoying, as I've finally managed to figure out who killed the much-disliked character in "Vox Angelica" and why. Drat.

Concerning the Whoniverse, "Atlantis Café" and "Auguries of Immortality" are overdue for an update, and I will eventually have to restart the "Wishverse", "Travellers' Tales" and "Torchwoodgate". Not to mention finish the one shot nicknamed "Comfort" (the actual title of it being "There's Nothing Wrong With Comfort Sex").

And then there's the "Birthright" series that got stuck in the middle of the third story, all that "Alternate Voyager" stuff that needs to be finished, the "Lost Years" series, where I still haven't translated two novel-length pieces from Hungarian into English, the Serina-story (BSG classic) that hasn't gone nowhere for quite some time, "The Toreador Chronicles" that only needs three more pieces to be finally completed, the "Out of Legends"-sequel that hasn't even been started yet, the second piece of the "Kansas"-trilogy that has been on ice for... well, forever... and... and and...

Did I mention the Merlin/Torchwood crossover?

And I haven't written any Tolkienfic for ages!!! *weeps*

Oh, and there would be the small issue with the 1,500 pages-long Grand Epos(TM) in Hungarian, the lost middle part of which ought to be reconstructed one day...

Too many stories to write, too little time to do so.

Go figure: I finally managed to finish the next part of "The Toreador Chronicles". Took me just about forever, but I'm really glad it's finally out of my hair. Two, perhaps three more parts and the series is completed. Hopefully, it won't take me years to write those again.

Those of you interested in Kindred vampires (TV-series version) and/or the US version of Queer as Folk, can find the new update at [livejournal.com profile] hiddenrealms.

Again, gakked from the lovely [livejournal.com profile] lethe_lloyd. She has the most amazing things in her journal.

Allrighty, the writing achievements of 2008:

I'll add my Secret Sancta Kavfic afterwards, as we're not supposed to reveal who's written what. But if you want to make an educated guess, you can get over to [livejournal.com profile] kavtolanon and browse a little.

Phew! Taking a look at this, I have to admit that I've been a busy girl in 2008. Go me!

So, which are the fandoms you've given up on because the creators took a turn you could not agree with?

Mine are:

- Angel, starting around the end of Season 2, when Joss brought in that stupid demon universe storyline. I stopped watching the show somewhere mid-season 3.

- Buffy, after Season 5, although I was seriously tempted to give up on it as soon as at the beginning of Season 4, when Buffy suddenly became an idiot. The last straw for me was the appearance of Dawn. I forced myself to watch the show to its bitter end, but honestly, I regretted having done so.

Andromeda, after mid-season 2, when Gold Trance came into the picture and Kevin Sorbo turned the show into Hercules in Space. I kept watching till the end of Season 4, but it just got worse and wordse. I never bothered with Season 5.

SG - Atlantis, after the Season 3 episode "Sateda". I liked that one. I bought Season 3 on DVD, but I seriously doubt that I would even bother to watch Season 4 and whatever might yet come on German TV.

Stargate SG-1. Stopped watching after Season 8, when O'Neill left and the annoying new guy entered the picture. The whole thing stopped being a slightly self-ironic sci-fi show and turned into some sort of stupid science fantasy. Oh, and I do hate Vala Mal Doran.

Earth: Final Conflict, after they killed off Boone, to get in the young Marty Stu, castrated Da'an and made Zo'or a stupid and incompetent villain. Watched sporadically till the end of Season 4, though, then stopped.

Queer As Folk, at the moment when Brian hit Michael, just because Michael said something "mean" about that annoying little slut, Justin. As if a piece of blond boy a§§ would be more important than a deep friendship of 14 years. Again, I watched the show to the bitter end and was shocked by the increasing badness of it.

Enterprise. I gave the show a chance, just because it was Star Trek. I gave up somewhere during the very first season. I even deleted the recorded episodes from the videotapes, it was so very bad.

These are just the fandoms in which I've invested much time and energy, and in which I also write. I've given up many, many more. *g*
