Bang! :)

[roxy]

Hey, Bangers, how's it going? You thinking about your stories? I am too! Mostly by reading a lot of porn...no, really, it helps! Sort of. I'm reading lots of porn, listening to tons of oldschool rap and making cryptic notes about the FBI and about SWAT teams. Mostly they cryptic because I can't read my handwriting and or my shorthand (oh, i'll know what that means when i read it again. *peers at 'TL 4tacpsnl+2shtrs, double, trip?'....what the fuck?*) So, yeah, part of my process is deciphering this shit....

Heeeeeeeee. OH, man. :) My handwriting's gotten to that. It's more like word *forms* than actual words.....

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Haa! Word forms, yes! The worst is when I take messages at work, and I'm all , "Aaaah, so'n'so called, and they want...the..mmmm? Paypal...repost--REPORT! Oh right, they want the payroll report." Which I blame entirely on Them because I am not a replacement operator, I am just a person forced to pick up the phone. :)

Heee. Exactly. I write stuff on the grocery list, then i stand there in the aisle at the grocery going 'what in *hell* is this? cresha? cronnit...wtf....OH. Dishsoap. Okay then.'

I'm sorry, laughing too hard to finish.

I mean SORRY!!!!!!

I wrote a bit - 2-3K? and the I got a little stuck, so I switched to my spnpairingsbingo. 3 of 5 done there, so going to finish them and then get back to the bang! :-) Oh, I did get a 4-5 page outliney-thing done.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

OMG, My outline is reaching epic proportions!!! My story is nothing but outline and boatloads of notes!! All for a scene that makes up maybe, 3000 words out of the whole fic, lol!!

On the plus side, my story starts with a bang! Or, more accurately, a blow job. *G*

[portraitofafool.livejournal.com]

Lol. The joys of note-taking, something I don't excel at. On the occasions I think to jot down "notes" more often than not, I just end up writing the damned story in longhand. Which is no good since I hate doing transcribing. Ugh. Or when I do manage notes, they consist of clever things like, "Then shit happens." or "Things are fucked up." Yeah.

Bang has not been started yet, but I have (1) A title, (2) A plot, (3) A middle and (4) An Ending. Problem is, I have no clue how to start it and I never do. I'll get it though, yes, yes. In theory anyway. No one's going to read this thing anyway and my artist is going to fucking hate me for it, but eh. As long as it gets written. That's why I'm here.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Haa! I have a title--for today, it changes with the wind. My plot is...shaky, yet. :) I have no middle but I do have an ending! Yay me! And in the meantime, I suddenly got bit with a domestic winchesters bug so, got that going too!

I've just been bangsmashing keys and trundling along like a tank. I'll catch up to what I've written at the end of the week and see what's sticking and what's not.

hahaa! If I wrote because I thought someone was going to read my shit, I'd never start! Well, someone besides my loyal, loving friends. I can always count on a few of them to read. :)

[portraitofafool.livejournal.com]

Lol. I do the same with titles sometimes, but since I have some kind of weird OCD thing where I must have a title to even begin, they usually stick once I settle on one. This one was a toss-up between two different titles, but I decided on the second given the nature of the story and all. I think... I may think about these things too much. *shakes head* (Btw, what's your title for today? Not that I'm nosy or anything. *koff*)

I need a beginning I can feel... hmm... good about and then I'll be alright. All stories have unsuspected things pop up here and there, but if I can get it going then I can deal with that stuff. I poke, prod, tweeze and amputate bits of stories like a crazy thing all the time--I have some I still edit now and then--so I get that. Nothing like taking ye olde weed-whacker to a story, am I right? :D

I feel like I get a fair amount of reads given the type of thing I write (and no one on my flist, save you *smishes* and one other, reads my stuff, trufax). With this one, it's going to shock the hell out of me if I get more than two, maybe three, comments on it though due to the nature of the story itself. It's a vicious little thing, I'm afraid. Which makes me happy, but most people are D: about that. So...

PARTY ON! Lol.

Today my title is Dream of Life! Sooo dramatic, no? I'm still messing with the feral Sam idea, but I got kind of hung up on the Dean part of the story, which is the background of the Sam part of the story. And apparently Dean is kind of a slut, but a good-hearted one.

On the other story, I'm deciding between Homeand Over The Hills And Far Away So far, I'm having fun with both of them.

so, your story is a vicious little thing, eh? Ooookay.... :)

[portraitofafool.livejournal.com]

Aww, Dream of Life is a nice title--maybe A Dream of Life? Feels like that "A" should be there maybe? :D Seriously though: keep it, "A" or no "A". It's very suggestive of what it could be about. I think so anyway. (Told ya: I have a thing about titles; a good or bad title--to my mind--can be the deciding factor in whether or not I choose to read something.). Ah, well, Dean is kind of a slut, albeit a goodhearted one, so that's totally canon. If Sam was a slut then I may be a bit o_O, but Dean? Nah. Totally works. \o/

Oooh, I like Over the Hills and Far Away for the domestic one. That is a seriously CATCHY title. Keep it! Keep it! *casts imaginary ballot* :D

Ayuh, it is a vicious thing. Not so little, but eh. It's... erm... disturbing, content-wise, in a lot of ways. Nothing particularly graphic, per se (except yeah, kinda), but it's still a horror story. That's why I said Idk if many people will read it. SPN is a scary show, but there aren't a lot of scary stories written in the fandom. We'll see though, ja? Optimism: That is the key. :D

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Over the Hills and Far Away, yeah, it seemed kind of perfect for this fic. It's Led Zeppplin, so it fits in a lot of ways! So good, I'll keep that one! :)

Dream of Life, I mined out of a poem that's about war, but always makes me think of Winchesters. So far, the story hasn't settled down, so who knows!

It's true that there aren't a lot of scary stories in fandom. I'm not sure that anything I've read would be classified as scary. That's a pretty good project though, sorting out recs for truly scary SpN fics.

[portraitofafool.livejournal.com]

Late reply is late, but I love talking titles, so I hope you'll forgive me there.

Ahh... I don't know much Zepp, maybe 3 or 4 songs. I never was a fan. Shh... don't tell the Winchesters. :D I gank a lot of my titles from songs except This is Not an Exit--that was a book--so muahaha, I think it's even awesomer (totally a word).

Oh? What poem? Share! Share! I love poetry.

I know and I think it's kind of woeful. There should be more horror fic in all fandoms, imo. But SPN should really bring it, given what the show is about and all, but no. I remember back in S1/S2 there was a bit more dark/disturbing/spooky fic out there, but over the years it's pretty much disappeared; at least damn near it. I've found a couple of creeptastic fics in recent years/seasons, but not many. Idk, maybe horror isn't an easy genre? I mean, there's a difference between gratuitous splatter and downright scary shit--whether there's splatter or not. Either that or, well, people just don't like the genre much. Which is sad. SAD, I TELL YOU. *emo tear*
