lj breaks and datestamps, anyone? :)

[audrarose]

So I have this novel I started during NaNo, right? I wrote 30k words, plotted the whole thing out, fell in love with people who weren't the JJ's (!!!) and basically started doing what I've said I wanted to do for YEARS.

And now it's the end of January, and I want to finish the first draft by my birthday in April, b/c I can be just as symbolic as the next person, BUT. I'm having a hard time getting down to tacks here when I ALSO want to write the JJ's making out in the surf of some white-sand beach, and Merlin and Arthur falling in love in Victorian England. I was moaning to sori1773 about this a few weeks ago.

Me: What's wrong with me? It's like I'm purposely distracting myself! If it weren't for NaNo, I would never have started the book in the first place. *frets*
She: So do another NaNo.

She's smarter than I am. It's one of the reasons I love her. :D

Soooooo, I'm taking a live journal break for the month of February to work on my book. (eeep!) I'll still be around on email, and to answer bigbang questions, and I'll most definitely be back in March.

But BEFORE I GO *g*, I'd like to offer up some datestamps, if anyone's interested. (oh, man. I never do stuff like this b/c I always expect, you know, *crickets* in response, but.)

Comment here with a future time frame and the title of anything I've written, anything at all. I'll write a few hundred words in that 'verse and post them on Monday.

Thanks for playing. :D

ETA: That's ten, so I'm going to cap it here. Thanks so much for the prompts! :D:D

Would you be keen on doing something for One Night at the Paramour? Mikey centric, if possible? Mikey/Bob or Gee-Mikey or Frank-Mikey or Ray-Mikey or MCR-Mikey, you might get the picture lol Really, I love all combo just the same :-)

*HEARTS* yes, yes! Mikey/Bob post paramour, yay! :D

Yay \o/ You know, that story is real special to me because it's one of the first I read when I started reading MCR. Actually, one of the first when I really got into MCR, period. I didn't even know about Mikey's breakdown a the time! Can you believe it?

I'd just fallen for the band and was learning about them and reading fics at the same time and I had no idea what was canon and what was fanon and when I discovered the whole Paramour thing, your story became even more intense somehow and I just never forgot about it. You never forget your first(s), as they say :-)

Thanks!
