toscas_kiss: Tosca's Kiss Steampunk Kiss (Advice for Writers)
My Yuletide present this year was Information Received, a lovely little James Bond office story with Bond and Villiers, courtesy of girl_called_sun. Thank you again for my Yuletide gift.


My own contribution this year was for miss_elizabeth, in the The Mummy film series fandom, and was an afternoon of discoveries (danger, romance, etc) for Evie, Rick and Jonathan, set in the Carnavan's parents' attic back in England:

Past and Future
(The Mummy Series, Teen & Up, Rick/Evelyn, Jonathan)


I was having terrible trouble thinking up a name for the story that wasn't either a. misleading or b. giving the plot away entirely, so I just slapped the moniker "Past and Future" on it. It wasn't until the day after that I realized I'd committed a horrible scribal faux pas; my previous year's Yuletide story was called "Of Events Past and Future"! [blush]

Next year, expect to see a story entitled, "Future".

After talking with [livejournal.com profile] daegaer about our respective writer's block (by which I mean she wrote quite a bit of fun stuff in 2007 and I wrote zippedy-doodar, fun or otherwise), I have decided to make an effort to write this year. I already have a claim on [livejournal.com profile] fanfic100 for Brad Crawford/Schuldig of Weiß Kreuz which has been going very, very poorly. I'm going to try and wade through some more of it and have enrolled in [livejournal.com profile] weissday, so that's a start.

I'm also making a claim in the much smaller [livejournal.com profile] 10_cliche_fics and trying out a new fandom - James Bond. And what's more, James Bond with Villiers, M's Chief of Staff (the same actor also played Brutus in Rome). Yes, as rare as blue steak, but it should be fun I think (and hopefully someone will actually want to read it). I'm going for the Table 3: Generic Clichés option:

The darkest hour is just before the dawnWhat doesn't kill you, makes you strongerNo time like the present
. . .
Every rose has its thornBetter late than neverWhat goes around comes around
. . .
All's fair in love and warAll's well that ends wellNever judge a book by its cover
. . .
Time heals all wounds

So I leapt with all the other lemmings and my assignment for the Fanfic 100 Challenge is (surprise, surprise) Weiss Kreuz's Brad Crawford and Schuldig. Click on the word to read the corresponding story for that prompt. At the moment the links go back to already written fiction which fits the particular theme

For further details on the challenge, see the [livejournal.com profile] fanfic100 User Info page, or check out the list of fandoms and list of stories.
