but first, a nap

[fahye]

I'm in Canberra! Relaxation shall occur, as shall reading and studying and West Wing-watching and writing; in fact, writing occurred on the bus this morning, as I am far less squirmy when it comes to working on an original fic while sitting next to a complete stranger than I would have been had I been working on one of my Merlin projects. So I opened up Elliot and tapped happily away at some eyai stuff. I love my characters! I love them all! Much as I adore writing fanfic, there's a warm glow of creative pride when it comes to one's own original characters that is hard to beat.

Things that WILL BE WRITTEN over the next two weeks:

1) At least the next chapter of the heist AU -- hopefully more.

2) This new eyai fic, which is probably going to be shorter than I thought. This is a rare miracle because usually things turn out twice as long as I expect them to.

3) A director's commentary for my History Boys fic, because I want to blab about it some more.

Things that MIGHT get written:

4) The Morgana/Merlin dark twisty genderswap thing I started ages ago.

5a/b/c) One of the, er, THREE other Merlin AUs that are waving their arms at me.

i cheer for your relaxation and writing! i hope to accomplish the same when my own break starts next week. i work at a writers' workshop yet haven't really written anything for close to a year. such is life.

your icon reminds me... have you seen those youtube shorts that kadokawa has been posting? they don't really have very much to do with the series, but they're cute and hilarious. if you haven't, search "the melancholy of suzumiya haruhi-chan." the first half have been subbed by fans, but kadokawa started subbing them themselves around #8 or so.

I'm really looking forward to all the Merlin-related projects, particularly the heist au- I loved the first chapter of that and it's one that I keep thinking about and wishing to read more of.

More eyai, more heist, and genderswap with the pale and beautiful pair. Not to mention the director's commentary for the HB fic. What fun! I'm doing a horribly uncoordinated dance of joy to celebrate, especially since I'm very excited at the thought of more eyai fic to read!

Enjoy your break!

While you were in Canberra... I was in Sydney! That would explain the complete absence of any fahye-sightings in the dining hall.
