Writing - Month Five
Sep. 24th, 2019 03:59 pmFirstly an update. For
fic_corner I wrote for Noel Streatfield's Ballet Shoes (a favourite story when I was young) a fic based around Petrova Fossil in WWII, but mentioning Pauline and Posy: Second Officer Petrova Fossil, Air Transport Auxiliary My Choose Your Own Adventure fic is back from beta (thank you
stonepicnicking_okapi ) but has yet to have its commas rectified. And my
stageoffools AU is also beta-ed (thank you
scfrankles ) I'll post the link once it's been revealed.
Current new writing: Back in May I wrote a Lewis casefic as a series of seven drabbles. It was only posted at
lewis_challenge because I intended on expanding it to a proper casefic as part of Oxford Tales. I've just started to write it, although it won't be ready for some months.
A first for me was when I wrote a drabble for
drabble_zone 'Late in the day' prompt Realisation which was from Sherlock's POV. I then expanded it for
fan_flashworks 'It's a trap' challenge as Donovan's POV Something Slightly Out Of Kilter. That ficlet also enabled me to earn my 120th badge for
fan_flashworks I also wrote this month's
whatif_au 'Mythology' for Sherlock (BBC) The Purple World.
Coming up:
spook_me for which I signed up for Pirates, which was the new category this year. And I've also signed up for Hoggywartyxmas again, although I'm not really writing Harry Potter.
Lastly, I'm currently following FutureLearn's Start Writing Fiction, and below are a couple of my responses to the exercises we've had so far:
