I have a new fic brewing. I don’t know if something will actually come from this but the idea hit me hard and won’t leave me alone. I was trying to ignore it, but it just kept getting more and more fleshed out by my brain, despite my protest.

Here’s what I’m giving away. The pairing is Cat and Bones, and I’m sticking with the happy little All Human world that I pretty much started in that fandom. It is inspired by a Britney Spears song. Not all too proud of that fact, but I’ll stick with it since I like the song and that pair just fits so perfectly. And there isn’t a HEA. It’s actually a pretty dark fic. I know some of my angst whore friends will love it.

I HIGHLY doubt I’ll be posting anything until I get a good chunk done. I wouldn’t want to tease. Well, okay, I would. Maybe I will. DAMMIT this just isn’t happening the way I want it to.

Let me put my life into context right now. I’m at the half way point of my first semester teaching. My grades are due Wednesday, I’m getting observed by the superintendent on Thursday since, according to my principal, I’m the most promising new teacher. And I have a certification test on Saturday. So, of course, it’s the perfect time to start a writing project.

What do you think? Leave me feedback comments.

I was alerted this morning via twitter that Terminal Attraction was nominated for a Giggle Snort award! From what I can tell, the Giggle Snorts celebrate humor writing, and TA was nominated in the Best Adult – Small Fry category!

I’m always so blown away when people truly enjoy what I’ve written. So thank you for thinking of Terminal Attraction!! If you’d like to vote for me, check out the voting site:

Lubadub checking in… anyone still here?

So, recently I sat in a Crumbs Bakery with ARedheadthing, scribeninja, and seastarr08 (yes this actually happened, they were visiting NY) discussing the state of fanfiction.  It was then that I realized I was kinda sorta done with it.  My life has gotten rather insane in the past few weeks, but even before that, I lost my desire.  Writing didn’t come to me as easily as it once did, and the frustration of not being able to string words together pissed me off beyond measure.

But I have several stories that are in progress and I didn’t want to leave anyone hanging on what I had planned. So I present to you, What Could Have Been.  If you don’t like spoilers of stories that will never be written, don’t read ahead.

Danger in Dixie – Eric and Sookie go to Sweden and get married in the church where his parents did.  Sookie has the baby, a beautiful baby girl named Madeline.  After Eric’s book comes out, they decide to move to Louisiana full time but keep the NY condo for those moments they miss the big city. They never use it.

Call Me Irresponsible – Actually… I never had a plan for this, which is why I stopped writing it, I had no idea what happens next.  All I know is, Cat and Bones have a healthy baby and get married.  And fuck.  A lot.

Terminal Attraction – Following a bit of foreshadowing from the crash chapter, the plane goes down somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle. No one is ever seen again.

Okay… so here’s what I’m going to say to wrap things up. I have a ton of stuff in the work-in-progress stage saved on a flash drive.  Maybe someday it’ll come together. Maybe not. I’m going to let things in my life calm the fuck down and then re-evaluate where I am as a writer from there.

If anything does happen, you’ll hear about it here first.

Last night when I sent out a request for readers to fill out a survey (the link is in the next post down, please fill it out if you haven’t already) I made mention of a new Night Huntress fanfiction I was working on.  Here’s the announcement of the very first chapter of Stepping Into the Dark.  It’s alternate universe, Cat, Bones and the rest of the characters as you’ve never seen them before.  Except for Annette, she’s exactly how she’s always been but I love her too much to change anything about her. 🙂

So take a chance on something new and check it out! Enjoy!

Hello all!

My darling beta, kick-ass author, and good friend chiisai-kitty is working on a project for her Women’s Lit class and needs readers of romance novels to fill out a survey.  Since so many of us in the fandom are big romance novel readers, I’m pimping her link out, asking all to fill it out.  It’s 10 quick questions, completely anonymous. 

In return for your help, there may be a first chapter of a new Cat and Bones project I’ve started coming your way.  Thank you so much for helping my girl out!

Thanks to everyone hanging in there with me while my brain goes through another writing dry spell.  I hope to have some new projects thrown together soon, as well as revisit some old favorites!

So the past few days I’ve been talking nonstop about some threeway smut I was writing between Sookie, Eric and Bones.  Well here’s the final product.  Enjoy.

Regular story updates come back after my muses do. Sorry folks, but enjoy the porn while it lasts.
