Okay, so I've been indulging heavily in the kink meme. I've now written the previously mentioned hot tub fic, chatroom fic, and now a ficlet in which Harry accidentally becomes king of the Wyldfae. Am wondering if some of these ideas may be recycled into the epicfic... Unsure.

But I have fic! And I have to tell you guys, this was a hard chapter. The Wonder Beta and

lightgetsin for talking me off the metaphorical ledge about the fic this week. ~~Twice.~~ MANY MANY MANY TIMES.

Lucy, one week ago: No, I am not getting Changes until it's in paperback. I only got Small Favor in hardcover because it was on sale for dirt cheap. I don't need hardbacks. They don't fit in my satchel anyway!

Lucy, today: Whoops, I seem to have bought Changes. Erk. :looks shifty:

Relatedly, GOOOOOOD I wanna skip Proven Guilty. I'm 170 pages in and it has yet to grab me. Damn it for having so much info that I need. And FFS Michael, why did you show up early, then LEAVE ME? I LOVE YOU COME BACK TO ME BABY PLZ. :pouts:

Okay, I've been asked by four people in the last week: How long is other things the road to hell is paved with going to be? Apparently a lot of people are like me and tend to avoid WIPs, and they want an ETA on this fic's completion.

I'm gonna answer here just so I don't sound like a broken record of myself. Copying and pasting the same reply to people makes me feel like a dick.

ANSWER: It's going to be long. Really long. The fic is going to have multiple plot arcs as it trundles along the one big myth arc I have in mind for it. The current conflict in the story with Bianca is one such plot arc. Once it's resolved, more will come. I have at least one more large plot arc planned out already and it is very likely there will be another after that prior to the endgame of the fic.

So, if the fic is currently just under 100,000 words, it might be about 175,000 or 200,000 by the time it's done. Possibly more. I would say it'll be done in a few months' time. I hope to keep up my fairly speedyquick output with it, but school is starting up in two weeks or so, and that will take precedence. Shouldn't be too big of a deal though.

I hope that helps?

Two things.

1. If you're trying to follow me on Twitter, you might want to let me know first. Anyone friending me who I don't recognize, I tend to block because I get creeped out easily. Just FYI, if I block you, it's not personal, just comment and go "hey, that was me, chill the fuck out, Lucy."

2. This... was not the chapter I intended to write. It was supposed to have two more plot-related scenes, but a Certain Scene went really long. As you read the Certain Scene-- and you will know it when you read it-- I hope you can forgive my long-windedness.

My Wonder Beta totally saved this chapter from extreme sucking, like, three times as I was writing it. If you aren't jealous of me for having the best beta in the world, you should be. ♥

ohmigawd, I feel terrible right now, what the hell.

:has Fiona Apple's "Paper Bag" on repeat: I need to eventually make a Dresden/Marcone fanmix. And maybe make a separate comm for this fic... It's so large and I update it so often, it might be a good idea to just give it a separate comm until it's finished. I wonder if I'm annoying the non-Dresden fen on my FList. Something to ponder.

Just, yanno, FYI: I'm going to Florida tomorrow to visit family and will be there for 2.5 weeks. I don't intend to lay off the stupidfast writing speed, but I may just be literally unable to get to my computer to get the words written. So, if there is a decrease in update speed, that's why.
