Quitting a fic
Dec. 20th, 2020 03:39 amDone! Nothing like doing last minute revisions to the Secret Santa fic.
I think I'll quit the RockFic story though. Not that it's not good, but it's too soon. I can't deal with the nature of the subject I picked. At the time I was going through things from decades ago and one recurring issues was that J wanted me to 'tell the story' further down the line. Looking back, I'm not sure if he meant the ill-fated love story, the bizarre situation, or the circus around everything. I posted once most of what I could remember, but trying to put it into fiction was too much. Not drunk enough and can't be that consistently sloshed to write out a proper fic about it.
There's Zeppelin in everything, even the CHM fic. If you squint you can see it. And there's a line lifted directly from something he told me once. Buried, of course, and it looks like part of the fic. But I know it's there. And I stop every time I get to that line even though it's nowhere near the climax of the story.
Should go heat up my supper. It's getting late. No more beds in the hospital and it's starting to get really bad. The whole system is full, so the ER is turning into ICU holding and we're starting to treat people in the waiting room. Not good. We'll be in the car park by noon at this rate. Parts of California and Arizona already are.
