So, I'm working on chapter eight of Before the Dawn, which I'm tempted to start calling 'The Fic That Must Not Be Named' only that's too long to type out every time. Perhaps I could call it 'Fic Thingy'.

This chapter is... I hate this chapter. I'm really, really tempted just to skip over it and have one character telling another what happened after the event. But that would be cheating, as this chapter is supposed to be the one that makes chapter one make sense.

So, when I say "working on" I mean "staring at the screen and going nuts".

Oh well. It's only been about six million years since I last updated.

I'm going to finish this thing if it kills me.

Also, I'm writing Medical Investigation fic, solely because I couldn't leave the final where it ended. It has been re-written approximately four times and it still sucks. Probably the fact that I haven't seen the first part of the final isn't helping matters.

Why the hell do I try to write fic with actual plot? I don't write plot, dammit.

Sorry for the exciting, fun, and joyous entry.

I totally understand your frustration, but I'm happy you are at least working on chapter 8. I so want to read that chapter, but then again I so want to read anything you write.

I just want the chapter to be done... and done well, which is the thing. I could add a few more paragraphs to what I've got and post it, but I won't because it's crap and unfit for public viewing.

But, yeah, I am working on it. *g*
