epic

[lobelia321]

Spent virtually all day writing the Karl/Dom epic. It will probably be called 'Anatomy of Love' -- although I will ponder this because it sounds a bit clinical. Am still making my way through the book of handwritten notes I wrote while away on my trip. Wading through and typing them up. Got through 9 pages today but have another 53 pages to go.

53!!!! *has minor fainting attack* (I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have counted.)

But I re-read earlier chapters to get myself in the mood and was, for the most part, very happy with them. *hugs self*

Anyway, enough of that. I won't bore on any longer. I feel a bit less guilty spending so much time on the Boys because I have spent practically none of late and started writing my conference paper yesterday. So if I sort of alternate - Karl/Dom and conference paper - I should be OK. Paper not due to be given until 10 April.

Snippet:
What he doesn't do, though, is to ask Karl about Karl's past. Karl's past is safe. Safely hidden, safely lethal.

This is a deadly attitude. Deadly, I tell you. But you know that already, right?

Not that I would tell you to stop writing. But, I'm just saying. Doom.

(Yes, I have an assignment due in April. No, I haven't started it yet. Yes, I have been writing threesome very-nearly-smut(!) instead. We're all doomed.)

Oh god. Doom.

*lost for words*

Is doomed good or bad, btw? Ack.

P.S. I know, I know, it sounds puthiticully slippery slopish, alternating, as if, and so forth. *gnashes teeth*

T'hubster inadvertently read a snippet of t'epic on the computer screen while surfing for het porn and commented, "That was your writing, wasn't it? I really liked it. I don't know what it means but I liked it. When will you publish it and make us millions?"

Er.

That would be 'lose us millions', what with the libel cases and all.

Still. Feel absurdly "chuffed" (although this is not a word I approve of in the ordinary course of events).

You should be chuffed! (and what's wrong with the word chuffed? Fine northern word, that. And, I say it. Usually in the phrase "well chuffed". Er, random much?)

Anyway, at least you didn't get "What's that, more of your slash shit?" in a voice dripping with condescension. It's very annoying.

Oh, and doom = bad. I am just projecting hugely but "I've got until...!" is always a bad omen of last-minute work to come. Of course I would be more better qualified to talk if I didn't always spend most of my 'work' time doing stupid quizzes and making icons and mix CDs...

oh. oh. oh.

Oh my. How long was your trip again? Four months?

But I re-read earlier chapters to get myself in the mood and was, for the most part, very happy with them. *hugs self*
(((hugs Lobelia))) just because.

Anyway, enough of that. I won't bore on any longer
Repeat after me: Lobelia is not boring. Lobelia should write as much as possible about the Karl/Dom epic.

What he doesn't do, though, is to ask Karl about Karl's past. Karl's past is safe. Safely hidden, safely lethal
Tease.

Oooh, what's the Karl-and-Dom song?

How long was your trip again? Four months?
Er. 3 weeks. Heh.

Well it goes like this: Kaharl and Dohom! Kaharl and Dohom! Kaharl and Dohom! Kaharl and Dohom! Kaharl and Dohom! Kaharl and Dohom! and you have to sing it to the melody of the Doug-and-Carrie song.

This of course only makes sense if you know King of Queens and that special episode...

I love long long stories, can't wait to read it. Dancing on tenterhooks here. (My conference paper got in last Friday, for April 5).

Conference paper? It's the season, eh? What country are you giving yours in? And dare I ask what discipline? Eek, we're not going to *run into each other*?
