Fannish Goodness

[przed]

After fighting wicked writer's block and general fannish ennui for the last few months, I've finally had a rather good week when it comes to fannish endeavours. I have:

1. Started and finished a new TT story. And not just finished it, but finished it well. It's one of the few times that I've felt the story does exactly what I wanted it to do, though it did take a couple of runs at a key scene to get it there. (Thanks draycevixen for noting the "loss of voice" square on my hc_bingo card. It was apparently just the prompt I needed.)

2. Started a new Pros vid with an eye to finishing it in time for BistoCon. I'm currently in the Clip Organizing Death March portion of the creative process, but it's definitely satisfying to be vidding again. And especially satisfying to be vidding the lads. It's made me remember how much I love them all over again.

3. Started to consider going to SHareCon. I hadn't even considered it because I didn't think it was fair to the Sweetie to take off on him for three cons this year. But he was poking around on my LJ (he does that occasionally) and noticed I'd mentioned I wasn't going to the con, he said "why not?" So I've started pricing flights to Baltimore.

Also, looking at footage of Doyle and considering my very favourite picture of Mark Owen has set me wondering if perhaps my affection for Mark isn't quite the anomaly I thought it was.


Hmmmm.

Congrats on accomplishing so much! :)

Look at you being all fannish and productive! I'm especially pleased to hear that you're vidding Pros again. And yes, pretty clear that you have a thing for bone structure, my dear..:)

I'm so pleased you're producing (and enjoying) more Pros vidding and that you'll be going to all the Cons.

lso, looking at footage of Doyle and considering my very favourite picture of Mark Owen has set me wondering if perhaps my affection for Mark isn't quite the anomaly I thought it was.

I see what you mean....there's something very similar in their appeal.

Pros vid! For some reason I haven't seen any 'new' Pros vids for years, not since media cannibals days, I think. Has the vidding style changed as fandom's evolved, do you think? Not just tech, but the story/style?

He's only one busted cheekbone away from perfect.

I'm still a bit amused that "loss of voice" didn't make you think immediately of your TT boys. *g*

Good to see you inspired again and lovely that you'll get to go to SHareCon.

Yes, those photos do seem to have things in common. :D

LOL--does it make you want to write a story where Doyle has a long lost brother?

Yay for all things fannish coming back to you: I'll be at Bistocon and SHarecon, as well, which will be my first time going to two away cons in the same year.

It's been a great week, yeah! Lots of starting and already finishing things too.

Heh, I see what you mean about the pictures.

Hooray for understanding fan-partners. What a lovely sweetie you have...

Excellent news on the productivity! And yes, I think you might be onto something there with the Mark thing :D

So good to hear you're gonna post a new TT story soon. The 'loss of voice' prompt sounds intriguing, cannot wait to read what you've come up with this time. :-)

Oh, and I can very well see what you mean about Doyle's and Mark's cheek bones. (Beautiful picture of Mark by the way.)

I recently developed a rather weird affection for Benedict Cumberbatch, I might be a cheek bone person myself, I guess.

So glad you're on a roll, that's wonderful, and I hope you can make SHarecon. We'd love to have you but I totally understand trying to juggle everything. I've got two more trips than I usually take this summer which has made things interesting but I'm grateful it's all working out.
