Sunny Sunday

So, I posted Chapter 6 of A Lot to Live Up To yesterday. You know, I kind of wish I could get this finished before Remix assignments went out. I don't know that my remixer would choose it, especially because it's so long, but I would LOVE to see Hoshi's side of this story.

Working on Chapter 7. First of all, I do NOT want to play "No Exit" here and do a backstory info dump. But also, Cottle of all people is driving me nuts. I think after I'm done with this, I'm going to go through and eliminate half the medical talk in it. The entire chapter takes place in sickbay, and Cottle's more a role than a character (which makes sense), but he's driving me bonkers. People don't want to read all the medical technobabble, dude. Go smoke a cigarette instead.

Ran four miles this morning, and am now sunburned and still guzzling water like it's going out of style. But it's been a good weekend- picnic and carnival yesterday, beautiful weather, nice night last night, and chocolate covered strawberries :)

We also watched Caprica on Friday. ( Thoughts and impressions. )

I'll have to write up a real review for MRFH.

Back to trying to get Cottle to stop jargoning. Yay :)

Writing Post

I'm having a LOT of trouble with this scene, and it's driving me bonkers. I'm going to expound. There are some spoilers for A Lot to Live Up To. It doesn't confirm what's going on with Hoshi, but it sure gives you some massive hints. It does reveal another character that's coming into this part of the story and suddenly wanting to be a bigger character (WTF?), and that character's presence might give you more of an idea where I'm going, but some of you (lj user=kappamaki33> and puszysty, I'm looking at you two) have already guessed a lot of that part anyway.

( Stuff for chapter 7 of A Lot to Live Up to, Spoilers as I try to work out writer's block. )

I'm all ears for suggestions on how to smooth this the frak out.
