What I'm Writing (1/12/19) + Snowflake Challenge: Day 12

[gracenm]

After giving myself a pass on writing for a bit, I'm back to it. I already talked about the Dawn POV ficlet that I wrote this week and didn't post. I also wrote the first couple of scenes of the B/A butcher shop AU.

 

I finished up the Vamp!Buffy/Angel piece, which ended up 2,001 words, because 2K has totally become my comfort zone. I think my beta is the only one who's going to get to read that one, at least for now. :D

 

Today's Snowflake Challenge is to create a challenge, and I think I'm going to be really boring and challenge myself to finish the first chapter of the butcher shop AU next week. If I had to describe it, I'd say it's kind of a mashup of the episodes Angel and City Of, with a side helping of Jenny Calendar.

 

In the Works:

Writing: Butcher shop AU; possibly my Buffy/Faith one-shot now that the holidays are over.

Outlining: NOT the butcher shop AU, on purpose, to see if pantsing serves me better.

Dreaming about: The fifth in my Season 3 B/A vignettes series. A post-Earshot one seems the most likely contender. The first two are here and I have two more written to post. But I want to have a nice round five (I know five is not round at all, but you know what I mean — fandom likes fives).

Good luck with it all. Though a Vamp!Buffy would be interesting (also interesting to know if Giles or Willow souled her almost immediately if they were able)

The butcher shop thing sounds interesting too

I'm dreaming about some day finishing the plethora of unfinished Buffyverse fanfic I abandoned a decade ago

Thank you! Yes, the premise of the Vamp!Buffy story is that Angel has been recruited to vamp-sit while the Scoobies get ready to re-ensoul Buffy. (Angel objects but eventually folds.) Smut ensues. :D

Good luck getting back to the stories you want to finish!

[cornerofmadness]

That sounds interesting (as I sit here trying to ignore my muse who wants to ensoul Dru and send her back to her boys)

And thanks. I could use the motivators to finish

Good luck finishing the first chapter of your WIP!
