dolt!

I posted another bit of Over the Hills late last night, patted myself on the back, and went to bed. This morning, I woke up with this horrible thought--You idiot! No one knows they're brothers! DUH.

Talk about story fail. I was so upset, I leaped out of bed and ran to the Oversize Laptop. Thank goodness no one read it--I would have been too embarrassed, ha! I did change the bit that failed at AO3, but locked it here while I think about just how I want to handle it. The moral of this story? If it's been a while since you worked on a fic, do yourself a favor and read the posted bits first, oy. I think the reason I'm screwing up with that brother/roommate thing is that I wasn't 100% about it when I went in, so....

Anyhoo, that was that.This weekend, I'm going to rec stories what I have read. Seriously. And write some more and fix my booboo. :(

*nods* Sympathies.

...this is a large part of why "Flesh and Blood" isn't finished yet. I've been away from it so long I'm terrified I'm going to really screw it up once I get back to it.

I know! Sometimes getting back into a story doesn't come right away and then it's panic time! I think too, that my brain wants to rush ahead to the end of the fic, so that's a bit of a struggle as well. :D
