GIP and Fannish Endeavour

[przed]

First of all, GIP! I've been wanting another icon of the lads together, and found this image in a screen cap I'd done for the Pros Slash Proliferation Challenge. (Have I mentioned how much I love Doyle's arms here? Not to mention Bodie's svelte frame. Yum.)

Second, in compensation for my stellar work as a mom, and by virtue of tomorrow being a stat holiday here in Canuck land, my Sweetie is giving me a day to concentrate on writing whilst he looks after the little girl. I'm definitely looking forward to it. I'm going to try to wrestle to the ground the bloody story that's been giving me grief for far too long. (It was supposed to be a short little thing that would take no effort at all and it's been a freaking bear to settle on a structure for the bastard. I'm this far from tossing out a chunk of bits I rather like 'cause I think it might work better without them. Sigh.)

If I get a good amount done on that story, there's always the Pros novel to take a crack at. I've been mulling it over for the last few weeks and think I've finally figured out how to integrate Doyle into it the overall narrative better. (And how I ended up writing a Bodie-centric novel, I'll never know...)

And then there's the Ultraviolet vid I've had half started for far too long now. The clips are all capped, I've got a few shots set in, so perhaps I can get a bit of work done on it. Have I mentioned the song is six and a half minutes long? And it's a trip hop number with really fast beats? And it's probably going to kill me? (Yeah, there's a reason several other vids have jumped over it in the queue.)

Oh nice icon! I adore those pics too, those arms, those muscles, and just look at Bodie, all taut and trim... *sighs happily* I've been lusting after more lads-together icons too - there's a plethora of them-separate ones, and ones-with-writing, but not so many of just them...

And have fun with your writing - a whole day, what bliss!

Hope you enjoy your well-deserved day of writing!
BTW, what does GIP stand for? (It's all a learning curve for me! LOL)

With you on the icon's being made of the greatest deliciousness. I think it's rather cute that MS is sort of oh-so-casually pushing against his bicep to make it stand out just a little more! But yes, they are gorgeous in this .... ::looks back up again. And again. Yum::

I like the way your Sweetie thinks re time to concentrate on writing!

Agree. Totally yummy icon. And a Bodie-centric novel! Wow. I'm so impressed. We have to organise *major* baby sitting interventions here so you can get this done..*g*

Have a lovely writer-y day. I'm doing the same thing actually, though mine is a teeny-tiny thing that ailcia planted in my head. It's a 'Four Things' meme that is turning into a moody little piece..

Here's to a productive day for the pair of us without too many distractions!

Good for you! I am SO in favor of a day to yourself, free of all the mommystuff. Satisfying as childrearing can be (in the long run, and you have to keep the long run in view amidst the frustrations of the short run) it's important to keep that little bit of yourself, and your own interests, active and alive. I didn't really do that while my kids were around, so now that I and they are all grown up, it's coming as a bit of a shock to them that I have interests and abilities that they were totally unaware of. Which is actually kind of fun, too.

Yay Canada! Have a great day!

Yay for you! Good luck with the writing day. Even if all you do is think a bit more, it'll be all to the good. If you get some actual writing done, so much the better! But, mostly, it'll be good to concentrate, guilt-free, on your own interests for a day.

Mind you, I'm looking forward to seeing the results. So, er, get to it!*g*

Hope you had a great day with vids and stories. And that Bodie-centered story? *loves it* Can't wait for more.
