okay. so.

So I want to write something for [livejournal.com profile] halfamoon, but I'm not sure what yet? I was kind of thinking of a crossover with awesome ladies, like Buffy and Veronica meeting in a post-apocolyptic world or something? I don't know.

But since I seem to have ZERO creative powers lately, throw some ideas at me. Crossovers would be awesome (I still miss [livejournal.com profile] choco_cherries), or a fandom you know I’m in but I haven’t written for, or a movie you’d like to see fic for or something. I want to see if something sticks, basically. And obviously it has to be lady-centric.

I’d really rather not get prompts for things I write a lot of (for instance, if you want me to write some Buffy, please make sure that the premise is startlingly original?), just because I’m trying to stretch myself. And I think it goes without saying that I won’t be writing all of them or maybe any of them at all, but hopefully some discussion will inspire me?

Anyways…thoughts? Anyone? Bueller?

Have you thought about writing an essay? I'm considering writing one about some of my favorite characters and you could do an essay on great women character arcs.

This is my poorly disguised attempt at getting you to talk about Annie. But there are others as well :)

I feel like I'm not very good at writing meta? I basically just vomit my feelings all over the page, full of flail and capslocks and such. I don't have the patience to watch back through all the episodes and carefully plot out everything I want to say. So I usually don't write it? But who knows, I might actually come up with something!

OH ANNIE! ♥

OH WHATEVER WHEN YOU VOMIT YOUR FEELINGS IT COMES OUT RAINBOWS

INCOHERENT RAINBOWS MAYBE.

I suck at saying anything insightful about character arcs, as much as I love them. IT'S ALL FLAIL.
