Because maybe you're gonna be the one that saves me...
I need to learn to control some of the writing habits I've developed when I'm writing in public. Mostly because I just look insane.
Like... I have a habit of saying dialogue aloud to myself as I write it, just to make sure it sounds right. Which, you know, is well enough when I'm alone. But lately I haven't had the time to write when I'm alone, so I just do it in whatever spare moments I have during the day. I'm working at the front, it gets slow, nobody comes by for a good ten or fifteen minutes, and... yeah.
So yesterday, I'm standing there by the front register, frowning at my notebook and rambling to myself in Ten-voice. And someone walks in. And I don't notice for a good fifteen seconds.
...I think I rather disturbed him, but that's okay! (But of course, it had to be Ten-voice. Because he always sounds the most crazy. *Facepalm* I am a huge dork, guys! I hope you all realize this!)
In other news, I've started the fic that is going to thoroughly break me to write. I would just like to say as a disclaimer beforehand, I DO NOT HATE MARTHA. I repeat, I DO NOT HATE MARTHA! She's actually my favorite character in the entirety of Doctor Who. I just... do horrible, horrible things to her.
That is all.
Just that after I finish this (and God knows when that'll be - it promises to be a long and painful fic) I need to write a long, happy story. Not that I really have any plotbunnies available for happy fics - the other two long-fic plotbunnies I have are also angsty. ...Well, there is that one with Torchwood...

I HEART YOU.

Awww. I'm SO FREAKING EXCITED FOR THIS FIC THAT WILL COMPLETELY BREAK ME TO READ. :D
I don't know. Why. I mean even the writers of DW. Putting her through the year that wasn't. Her and ONLY her walked the world and experienced all of it first hand.
Something about her character begs to be tortured.
That sounded SO dirrrty.

And... um... yeeeaaaah. This is The Year that Never Was, but worse. It's an AU Year that Never Was.
And the torture that sounds so wrong? ...Yeah. Um. You're right about on target there. I hate my brain. Lots.
If you want to see the first part, it's up in the comments of my alphabet meme.no subject
So I think it will be a good realization to... have.
