Do you ever have one of those moments where you have something to squee about, and you have something to mope about, and the two things just cancel each other out, leaving you completely blank emotion-wise?  That's me right now.[Poll #1020891][Poll #1020891][Poll #1020892][Poll #1020892]

Re: WIPing - it seems to work best when the author has a fairly solid idea where the story is going.

Thanks! I have a pretty good idea where the story is going - the epilogue bunny has hopped by a few times, and I know what and where most of the major plot points are - it's just getting there that's being a pain. Darn little fiddly bits that make plots and characters sensible but never come when you call... hmm. It seems writing requires being a cat person. ;)

I write slowly, read more slowly, and am a full-time college student, so I'd been holding off posting for a while in effort not to torture people. But feedback tends to make writing the detaily bits easier, and I have an actual vacation starting in three weeks... I figured soon would be a good time to post if I were to do so.

What Barb said! Also I find I like a vague idea of what an OC looks like, but it doesn't have to be detailed down to the last wrinkle and freckle.

I tend to agree with you on OC descriptions, but I wanted to be certain... they're so rare in fic that I wasn't certain what the "rules" were. That, and I just realized that I only had canon-character level description for an OC Slayer. *g*
