Sunday Snippets May 12th 2019
May. 12th, 2019 09:17 pmWell, I'm really glad I got at least one very significant deadline put behind me at work on Friday, even when this spring is probably not easing up that much moving forward.
The draft of my Cap RBB fic is now completely finished, the one incomplete scene I mentioned last week ballooned into nearly four thousand words (they kept talking instead of getting into bed like I was trying to have them do :D), but that too is now finished. Word count went just over 25k, which is more than I aimed for but not terribly so, so I'm good. My beta says there are no major plot problems with it, just the usual polishing, which is even better.
It also has a title now! As predicted it was a wrestle, I spent one evening's worth of writing time trying to put ideas on paper and not liking any of my initial tries until I came at it from a different direction and found it. It's The Irrefutable Constant of Our Lives. Our posting date is June 8th, so plenty of time yet to obsessively work it over (Let's do yet another read through, she said to herself etc.)
I also kept thinking of the Endgame-related thing, I'm going back and forth on some stuff as usually happens at this point. No writing on it done yet, but I might start next week, depending on how my week turns out.
***
I've actually read only one Endgame related fic so far, and that probably won't change too much moving forward. Mostly because the idea for my own story is very clear for me, and if I were to read fics set around the movie I'd start second guessing whenever someone came close to my idea, and I'd rather not wrestle with that.
