You know how you have an idea for a fic that is quite possibly - in fact, almost definitely - the most completely and utterly stupid idea for a fic that you've ever had because it goes completely against your usual principles of plausibility and at the very least, half-way-decent characterisation?

And you know how you ignore it in the hope that it'll go away?

But it doesn't, and in fact instead of it going away, you find yourself writing huge great swathes of it in your head?

And then you think "I know - maybe if I write it down and pretend I've got some intention of actually writing it properly, maybe even finishing and posting it someday, that'll exorcise it and it'll go away?"

And 4,000 words later ...

It's worked! :-)

For a couple of weeks :-(

So you try again.

And 2,000 more words later... it's still there?

Well... what comes next?

(And please - don't say "porn" - because I haven't even got to that bit yet!)

Bollocks.

The plot-bunnies. They are evil. *nods*

Unexpected Naked Donna?

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Hehe... well it might not be so unexpected ;-)

[nostalgia-lj.livejournal.com]

Unexpected Naked... K-9?

[hooloovoo_42]

Unexpected Amy!

[caz963.livejournal.com]

Pond?

I can't see that happening, somehow!

[nostalgia-lj.livejournal.com]

Oshit, I never did write that thing where Ten'n'Donna meet Eleven'n'Amy and Ten is like "Hellooo, ginger lady!" and Donna is like "...does he only collect gingers now?" and Eleven stares angstily at Donna a lot. OH DONNA D:

The world needz moar Donna.

I was thinking Pond, but I'd go for Ten & Donna meet Josh & Amy. That could be "interesting"!

[caz963.livejournal.com]

I had a Ten 'n' Donna meet Josh 'n' Donna in my head a while back, but it was a bit like a crack too far!

I'm just crushed that you're probably writing Dr. who...

[caz963.livejournal.com]

I am, yeah. Sorry :( I keep promising myself I'm going to finish this WW fic I've had kicking around for ages, but it's hard to get back into the groove.

I know what you mean, I've got one I've been poking at for months now, it may never see the light of day because I don't even like it, but it wont go away either

It's annoying isn't it? I'm the first one to turn my nose up at poorly characterised fic, or something completely ridiculous... and yet. *sigh*

[leli-5.livejournal.com]

Well, at least you've ideas and some will to write. I had a good year there and then... lost the plot, quite literally.

Anyway, I somehow doubt that you could come up with anything even Galway down on the DWfic plausibility spectrum so have at it!

[leli-5.livejournal.com]

Galway? Really autocorrect? HALFWAY, is what I meant.
