About teh Crack

Some of you might be wondering what the heck I’m doing about the next chapter or Resurrection (or maybe you’ve forgotten about it--but humor me). I am working on it, although, unfortunately, it’s been slow going. Work has been particularly nasty this year, and so I haven’t had much time or brain-power left over for playing, and teh crack does require quite a bit of concentration to write--as well as time to come up with crazy schemes in my head. (It’s not infrequently that I fantasize about having a job involving mindless, repetitive actions. Of course, then I’d probably really go insane.)

But I am working on it. I’ve got about 10 pages of a draft done so far, and although I’m fairly convinced they suck, I haven’t deleted them yet. After a hiatus of unknown scope, I worked on it for a few hours this weekend, and I’m hoping to be able to put some time into it and get it moving. So, brace yourselves for the potential of random, self-pitying posts about page counts and how much the characters hate me--if I’m lucky.

If anyone is inclined to give me a little push, I’d love to hear what you guy think should happen in the next chapter (crazy speculation is love). That is, if anyone even remember where I left off.

Hmm, I shall have to think about this for a day or so, and then get back to you. But don't throw those pages out! You never know what gems might be in there.

And I'm as guilty as you are - I've been, ah, hiding from the fics as well.

The crazier with the suggestions the better. I need to inject some crazy. :)

I won't throw them out--although likely they'll be rewritten and rewritten. And rewritten. (And then thrown out.

Well, good luck to us both with facing the fic head on!

I'm not even going to suggest anything because you are teh evil when it comes to separating L and A. Besides, I'm a big softie and you sent him HOME WITH GUINEVERE!!!! *sob*

I'll love it regardless of what happens.

You know what, though - I would like to see more of Cynic and Cerdic. And the mystery guy that Lancelot mistook for Arthur a few chapters back.

It's not my fault A does these things. It's not like I tell him to or anything. :p

Who? The C's are around? ;) Mysterious green-eyed man will surely be showing up soon, although since I'm not quite sure how the outline of the chapter will go, maybe not in this one.

I still have to look at your recent chapter. I'll try to do it today, provided no work disasters strike.

*shoves none too gently* ;p

Oh, I don't know -- more Tor! More 3 G's! And more Agravaine shenanigans!

Okay, too tired and overwhelmed today. Tell you all about it later. *izded*

*falls down on her face*

Some shenanigans are indeed in order, although there is some boring serious stuff that needs to happen as well. I'm stuck on the boring serious stuff right now, but shall be trying to scheme up some crazed plots and stupid jokes. Of course where stupid jokes are concerned, Tor tends to be front and center along with Gally (and therefore the other Gs), so that shouldn't be a problem. Agravaine, on the other hand, is up to his own schemes. :P

I'd like to see more Dinaden and Tristan, please and thank you.

There certainly will be more of both (although I think they're currently not speaking to each other ;) ). I'll have to see what I can do about that--perhaps have someone bash their heads together. :P

How could I forget. Lancelot has just come out of a coma and stupid Arthur has fallen for Gwen's pleas to get some rest.... at her place. Duh! but the man is dense at times *pets Arthur*

I think Dag should grab Arthur and march him back to Lancelot's room before he even gets to the damn elevator.

I'm hoping to read more soon. I love your crack. I live for your crack. Too much hyperbole?!

I think A has already slipped the knights' watch, so no hope of Dag hijacking him in the elevator, unfortunately.

That was hyperbole? Huh. *is disappointed* ;)

I suppose I could work harder if you'd like. Give me a moment to compose something suitable....

Suffice it to say your work is fabulous and I eagerly await your next installment, Oh Great Goddess of Fiction *hee*

How was that? Better? Oh Great One! ;)

It's a start. ;)
