Whew! That Who fic story I started in early June of this year, then left unfinished, because I felt I needed a semi-hiatus from Dr Who (realized I was getting a wee too obsessed, when I was up half the night crying, when David Tennant "regenerated" in episode 12)..so I stopped writing Dr Who fiction for about 4 months...took it up again this past week, and just--finally--finished Dark Holiday, tonight. Left off at chapter three, all those months ago, and did chapters 4 though 7 in the last three or four days. It's not a very good story, but I always hate to leave stories unfinished, so there's that stone from around my neck...
...I have one other that needs finishing--I got writer's block, massive writer's block, when in the middle of writing a story called, "Numbered Days," about a subjugated race of people on a distant planet, a segregated planet, where the working class are forced to live underground, only allowed to be known by numbers--facing death if they assume an actual name...and the elite class--who live in a sleek domed city, have names, and are in a constant struggle for power, money and possessions. Kind of an obvious story, I guess. But, there ya' go.
It's nice to be writing again, even if I am sick as a dog with this blasted never-ending cold, and probably making a million typos and spelling errors, as a result. But, writing does make the time fly for me. I start at 8pm, and the next I know, it's nearly 11pm. Which, my life being the way it is, is a genuine blessing, making the long winter nights, shorter. I put my "Christopher Cross" channel on Pandora Radio (sorry the UK can't get it, it's fab!), and, besides Cross, listened to air supply, phil collins, Fleetwood Mac, Chicago, Journey, the Doobie Brothers, Eagles...all the sounds I listened to, from my mid-teens to early 20's. It really does make the time fly, when you're alone.
My final word: Only oversexed chavs read and write Who porn--no REAL Whovian would ever sink that low---PLEASE don't "dumb down" Doctor Who!!! It deserves better than that!
