So, I wrote my first SGA threesome!. It's for Oxoneinsis' latest porn battle, and it's here
"Closer" John/Ronon/Rodney. Vaguely spoilery for The Ark, but really, you won't know I've spoiled it if you haven't seen it.. I only barely made it by the deadline. Don't know if I'm in love with it. but I guess it'll do. I've got some Sports Night half finished that I meant to use for it, but couldn't. So hopefully I'll get it done and posted as regular fic.
It seems quite probable that my fic writing will be somewhat lessened, as my creative writing class begins tomorrow, and obviously I'll have to put that first. (Not that this will stop me from ficcing completely). I'm really quite nervous about my ability to create characters from scratch. I don't know if it's a confidence thing, or if my self-assessment is accurate. I mean, I do keep surprising myself with what I can do with fanfic. Certainly I've stretched my supposed limits there. (It was only a few years ago that I 'knew' I'd never be able to break that PG13 barrier, for instance).
I have to keep a journal for the class, which I expected. I didn't expect it to be an actual paper version, and not an online one. The class is a hybrid, we meet in person once a week for workshopping, and the rest is online. I do much better with a keyboard than I do with a pen, simply because my brain works faster than my fingers, and my writing can become hard to read. I'm told I have "good handwriting for a Lefty" -- usually. We'll see how it goes. I worry a bit about not having much to say. My life isn't exactly brimming with events that make fascinating prose. (This may be why I like telling other people's stories.)
My computer continues to plague me. I deleted the "adminestrator" account, so that problem is solved. However, the virus scan tells me I have various corrupted files, but that they can't fix or delete them. I need to talk to an actual expert, clearly.
