Well, RL got in the way of writing again. Things are not looking good at all on my finish it list.
However, I do have chapters 1 and 2 of "Shades of Grey" written and beta read. My goal was to get through chapter 3, but at least two chapters is progress. I didn't finish two large items on my list, but I did put substantial effort in on them. I guess progress is better than nothing. |

| One Thing Done---10 Million to Go |
[Oct. 25th, 2007|02:22 am] |
At least I can cross one thing off my list. I have my sims blog updated with the Turner Family Season 5.
Season 5 Turner Family
Nich, Klaus, and Daniel struggle while their brother is away at college. Maintaining a house is harder than the boys imagined. Will and Shenene get married. How will the family readjust when the newlyweds move home?
Or, catch up on all the families at Emerald Isle.
Still never going to finish my huge list of fanfic. I'm trying to at least finish a few things and continue to make progress on the big things. |

| Well, at least I got one fic done |
[Oct. 19th, 2007|12:54 am] |
I'm so far behind, I'm pretty sure I can't finish my finish-a-thon list in time. I am, however, pushing myself really hard, much harder than I would without this fest. So, at least I have one more fic done now. It's my birthday fic for ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) roedhunt.
Title: Do They Use the Cane at Hogwarts?
Author: SirenPrincess
Rating: Mature Adult (equivalent to hard R, you must be 18 years old to read this)
Warnings: Extremely hard caning which results in blisters and bruises. This is not a gentle discipline fic. You have been warned! I don’t feel that the caning in this fic crosses the line into abuse, but some people are sure to feel that it does. Also, there are brief mentions and references to previous punishments in Harry and Draco’s lives. Those most certainly were abuse, but they aren’t graphically described, just mentioned. This story is not canon compliant (see notes below). Also, this story contains a slash male/male pairing. There is no graphic sex, but if the thought of two boys loving each other bothers you, then please don’t read it. Finally, there’s coarse language in this fic.
Genre: spanking fic
Word Count: 6,537
Pairing: Harry/Draco
Summary: What if they did allow corporal punishment at Hogwarts? Harry quickly finds himself receiving a punishment that should be delivered to his boyfriend.

Because I am doing awful at trying to finish my list, and because I can't seem to stick to the schedules I need to in order to finish, I'm doing the small goals meme publicly. I really hope it helps.

| Seeking Advice |
[Oct. 4th, 2007|10:30 am] |
I have a problem that I am hoping some people in the group can provide some advice on. My problem is that I tend to have no problem writing "the fun scenes" in my stories. My mind races and my fingers can barely keep up with my mind to type it all out. I feel almost possessed. I end up with several "fun scenes" written out in the story, because I have them just perfect and get them written out fast. The problem comes when I have to write the "between scenes." These scenes are absolutely necesarry to the plot of the story, but they are boring, and I really have difficulty forcing myself to write them. It seems to take me forever to write these parts, and I'm never happy with them. This is a problem for me in both of my novel length stories: Draco's Protector and Shades of Grey. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have any advice for me? |

Name: SirenPrincess
Fandom(s) you are working on for this fest: Harry Potter and Sims 2
Participation: Writer
The one item from your list that you most want to complete: Draco's Protector. I've been working on this fic since 2005, and I really want to finish it.
Items with a deadline other than this fest: Birthday fics must be completed this month. Drabble community deadlines are weekly.
Most fun item on your list: My Sims blog
Item you are dreading the most/need the most encouragement on: Draco's Protector, because it is the most overwhelming to me.
How do you start a project? I see all of my fics as little movies in my head first, then I try to put it into words in my head, then I sit and write it.
In what conditions do you work best? Every other Thursday I have the day off and my husband is at work, so I have a quiet house all to myself. I need it quiet with no distractions, which is otherwise hard to accomplish.
One thing that always inspires you to create: Listening to the Harry Potter books on audio CD. There's always some small detail that I never thought of before that inspires something in me. Also, listening to JKR's style seems to improve my writing style.
One general thing you would really like to improve on: Planning out a story outline before I begin writing. I have a tendency to write myself into a corner.
Advice and/or questions regarding the creative process that you have for the other members of the community: For you wonderful people that are able to outline your fics, how do you do it? My mind always seems to jump into the details and writing. I can't force it to think big picture. If I think about an ending, I start thinking out the details of it, and then I have trouble going back to the beginning. Any advice?
A teaser from something you've got at least partially done:

| Pimping Banner? |
[Sep. 17th, 2007|10:08 pm] |
You know what we need? A pimping banner for this community. It is such a good idea, and I want to get more people involved. That requires pimping. I'm not artistically inclined or I'd volunteer. Just a suggestion. |
