More fic

I just joined "The Chamber" which is dedicated to women of color in fiction. It's a neat idea, lots of original fic, fan fic and the like which is great considering. I didn't necessarily get this idea from that site, but I suppose being at the site triggered something in my head. You know, my quest for Monica/Sylar fanfic kind of mutated into this:




No, it's neither Monica, nor Sylar... I'm just using their faces for the fic :) I hope they don't mind. Actually the woman in the photo's name is Joan Butler and the man is Jason Moore. I tried hard not to give her some sort of sickly mary-sue type name like ... Destiny Alexandra Angelica... nonsense. Personally, I like boring, mundane names, names that haven't been used a lot like... Zelda, Maude...

I was dying to name him Zach and I sat here staring at his face trying to think of a name that would fit. Heh, Jason is pretty decent... he kinda looks like a Jason. Or Rocco :D

Joan is pretty mundane, I think... especially considering the strange ride I'm setting her up for. Note they are both on the phone and that plays a big part in the story. I'm in the process of writing up a summary (brief summary) as the brain is working and I might sign myself up for that torture writing thing. Apparently you are timed to write a certain number of words and if you don't then little green men with pitchforks come and stab your calves. *shrugs* I dunno. I don't think I want that ;)

But, this is just like me. I get hot on a fic for a little while and then when it cools down, I jump on another, never finishing the one before it. I'm so glad that I'm not a professional writer. My agent would hate me because I'd never get anything done... but I suppose that if I were a professional writer and my bread and butter depended on me finishing something... then I'd finish it. I would have to. But I'm just a scientist and no one is counting on me to finish some novel. Thank goodness.

On a random note, I can't decide which Heroes episodes I want to rip and upload to the touch. I suppose Run and Parasite top the list, but there's not enough Mylar in it to justify, though what they have is incredible. I mean as much as I think Ali Larter has an awesome body, I can't stand the characters that she plays on the show and damnit! she won't die!
