So it's pretty obvious that I'm not going to get a blackout before the deadline, and I'm ok with that.  I've not felt much like writing since November, because of all the other things I need to do and real life being crazy meaning I'm too tired to try to bash words into shape in the evenings.  In fact the only bit of writing I've done recently was the drabble yesterday and given the fact my head is full of germs I'm surprised I managed that.

I have been reading what everyone else has put out, even if I've not been commenting, and I love it all.  I think that this has been a great event for the community.  And I'm not throwing out my card.  I have ideas for quite a few of the prompts, and they're ideas which fill in blanks or add to scenes, so I'm keeping my card with a plan to write those drabbles and post them when I feel like writing again.
dicreasy2: (Myshuno winnner)
Title:  Storytime,
Prompt: Stanley dreams he is surrounded by crinkly-nosed grandchildren, and then wakes up to an empty house.
Rating: U. 
Spoiler rating:  1/10. 
Summary:  Er, see the prompt.
Notes:   I loved writing this, and it takes place roughly at the same time as chapter 24.3
Word Count: 1,720.

My Card.

Really, what was the point of having grandchildren if you couldn’t spoil them rotten, and then hand them back to their parents? )
dicreasy2: (Myshuno winnner)
Title:  Clandestine,
Prompt: A clandestine meeting at the Natural history museum.
Rating: U. 
Spoiler rating:  1/10. 
Summary:  Vicky attends a meeting.
Notes:  I don't really have much to say about this.  It would be nice to say that this is a lead in to a new interlude, but it's not.  It's just a little scene that came to me on reading the prompt.  Oh!  But it does let me claim a Myshuno!
Word Count: 665.

My card.

She felt the fizz of excitement start bubbling through her veins. )


dicreasy2: (Stuart)
Title:  Elliart Expecting.
Prompt: Elliart.
Rating: U. 
Spoiler rating:  8/10.  Oblique references to the fact that "something bad" has happened in Regalton, but doesn't go into detail.
Summary:  My simself writes a drabble.
Notes:   I don't really have much to say about this, beyond saying Elliart are so, so sweet, and the drabble my simself writes, is a scene I can totally see happening between Ellie and Stuart.
Word Count: 1,047

Are you going to fuss around me like a mother hen for the whole of that time? )

dicreasy2: (Myshuno winnner)
Title: Unpleasant doings
Prompt: “What am I doing here?”/Dark alleys.
Rating: U. 
Spoiler rating:  10/10.  Yes that is a 10.  Read at your own risk.
Summary:  Walking through dark alleys at night.
Notes:   I'm still working out how exactly this is going to happen, but a version of this drabble will appear as a future scene in a few chapters time.  I've kept it vague, and I won't be answering questions on it.
Word Count:  247

He had headed off before rational thought had had a chance to reassert itself. )
dicreasy2: (Myshuno winnner)
Title: Corsets and Bustles, oh my.
Prompt: Fashion/the pros and cons of dressing Victorian.
Rating: U. 
Spoiler rating:  1/10.
Summary:  The Sophia sisters discuss fashion as they dress.
Notes: Basically this is just a nice little scene showing a bit more of both characters.  The emphasis is more on fashion, than the pros and cons of their way of dressing, but that's in there too.  Also, once I started writing these two, I realised I could have gotten very rambly, so I've tried to keep it on track.
Word Count: 1,377


"Oh lord, please do not let panniers become fashionable again." )
dicreasy2: (Myshuno winnner)
Title: Bedtime
Prompt:  Eddie/Carmen
Rating: PG. 
Spoiler rating:  3/10.  This is canon and takes place in the future, but there's nothing you don't know in it.
Summary:  Eddie and Carmen getting ready to retire for the night.
Notes:  I wanted this to be a sweet look at part of the daily routine of one of my favourite couples.  It turned out to be a struggle to write and get sounding nice, and not too rushed.  I've done so little writing over the past six months, I feel broken.  Anyway, this is hopefully to get me back in the habit of writing regularly, and isn't the best, but I hope you enjoy anyway.
Word Count:  695

"What have I done to deserve that?" "Everything." )

Myshuno!

I've put my Myshuno! card together, and I wanted to thank everyone for all of the prompts. I actually had enough for two cards, with several left over. I've chosen at least one prompt from each person who was kind enough to give me some, and I've tried to choose prompts which I think will be fun to do. I've also merged a few prompts together, since they seemed to have a similar feel to me and I think I can do both in one drabble. Oh and much as I really want to do the Oxsimford carriage, I feel that would be best told as a full length mystery, and so have earmarked that for my next interlude (whenever that may be).

Myshuno!

Hi guys.

[livejournal.com profile] sim_spiration are holding a really awesome event from October to the first of January called Myshuno!  Basically, everyone gets a Myshuno! card of 24 prompts, which they have to try to complete drabbles for by the first of January.  How many depends on the writer, but I'd definitely like to try for a Myshuno! or even a blackout.

It looks like being great fun, so if you want to participate, you can sign up here

I've already signed up, but I need some prompts, so if you want to give me some prompts, you can find my entry here.  Feel free to throw whatever you want at me.  Even if I don't go for a blackout by January, I might keep the card around for fun afterwards.

I'm really looking forward to getting back into the habit of writing with this event, and hope you also find it fun.
