I've been off of working on Storm Season the last three days or so, which isn't good. I'm trying to get it AND all the post-SS one-shots finished by the end of the month. But I'm having a HELL of a time concentrating on it right now, I kind of just want to write the one-shots instead, which is a problem because they, obviously, take place AFTER Storm Season, so I don't want to write them and then have to edit the shit out of them when they don't line up with SS "canon", you know? But it's what my brain wants to write right now, and it IS part of what I want to get done by the end of the month, so...???
Right now I have When Lightning Strikes, Ghost In The Machine and Pinfeathers open to work on along with Storm Season, since they're the first three of the post-SS one-shots so it makes logical sense that I would work on them first, right? But I also REALLY want to work on Halcyon Days and Stalagmites, which are the LAST two, so like idek brain what are you doing to me, here?
I'm also tinkering with Where Monsters Come From, which I STRUGGLED with for the longest time and now, FINALLY, am having some luck at writing some scenes?? NOW?? WHEN IT IS THE LITERAL WORST TIME?? I have no idea, really, I just think my brain is trying to kill me or drive itself more insane or something.
On a side note, I really do think I need an increase in my ADHD meds, they're not working nearly as well as they did in the beginning, and that's the thing with me and medications; my body adjusts to them really easily, so I start off fine but then my body adjusts and my dosage has to be upped and my body adjusts and my dosage has to be upped and so on, until I'm on HUGE dosages of (most of) my meds. Looks like the Vyvanse might be the same way, not that I'm all that surprised.
ANYWAY. Then last night I started a short story that I've had kicking around the back of my head since I was like 14. It's called "A Dog Named God" and it's kind of my own personal thoughts on the concept of God, but put in a supernatural/fantasy setting because I can't just write an ESSAY now, can I?
Then I also want to work some more on Chemistry (and Chemistry side-fics, I have one about Violet Parr and Katie Mitchell that's really cute) and get working on Marked again, but first I have to like... READ Marked again because it's been so long that I completely forget where I was going with it aside from the gratuitous smut. :D;;
On top of that I want to finish up some of my old Valdemar stuff (Brothers At Arms, Marionette, Aftershocks, Fallout, Evolution, Of The Deepest Dye, Whipstitch, Outlander, A Dangerous Pastime) and I have a few new ones that I want to get started on AT SOME POINT as well (Heart, Sterling, A MILLION-ONE SHOTS) and the entire Cole and Hadley series that I still want to write, even though I never heard back from Mercedes Lackey about Inside Out (I still have to write the rest of Breaking Point, then Against The Grain, Firebug, Burning Bridges and Birds Of A Feather.)
I also want to write another Black Companion fic, one unrelated to Of The Deepest Dye, but I don't know what for or what the plot would be. Maybe the Star-Eyed coming through with her threat to create black versions of Companions, after all? Black hides and starfield-eyes, instead of white hides with blue eyes? ...oh. Maybe I'll dust off Yasmine and Syril and Jasha and Malicha, that story had potential. Hmm.
Oh, and a couple of Teen Wolf Sterek one-shots (Stupid Love and Carousel Coffee And More) that I need to finish eventually, too. Stupid Love I originally started over a year ago as a gift for Poe, but my brain was such a bag of cats that I just... I was struggling SO HARD to write ANYTHING, and Poe started to get frustrated with me, but I didn't even know how to explain it. The static in my brain, or the bouncy balls. And now they understand THAT part, but not only are we not in contact anymore, but even if we WERE I couldn't send Stupid Love to them because of the TW trauma.
When I posted What Foxes Like for them back in January of this year, I probably did them damage, if they even read it. They probably didn't. But What Foxes Like went over pretty well on AO3 regardless, so I'm looking forward to seeing if Stupid Love and/or Carousel Coffee And More do well, too, or if What Foxes Like was just a one-off fluke.
