triple_flame(Copied from GW 'cos I want to keep a copy here as well...why am I explaining myself again?...Oh yeah, that's right, it's gone 2am and I'm tired)
The site closure has really been making me think, I don't want to lose this place but all I can do is lend my support to the ongoing campaigns.
I have however been looking for new homes for my work if not myself. I found an MSN group once which was soley a place for the owner to keep her fictions and poetry and things, turns out that MSN has now jumped on the blog bandwagon. This is actually a good thing from my point of view, means I have somewhere to keep all my ficlets without them clogging up my LJ...It seems that I keep starting journals supposedly to keep fics etc in then they get taken over with RL...ah well.
In the process of moving the stuff from here, as well as all the fanfics that I can't post here for copyright reasons, I've caught a couple of comments that have made me go back to previous work. The stuff with Kelly isn't so different from every other vampire story out there, afterall, if WW can try to sue Underworld and get nowhere it can't be too dissimilar from alot of the myths. I'm considering revisiting it as an occasional break from GiC. There may be some things that I have to change to bring it out of the old WoD but I haven't written vamp fic in I don't know how long....Ok yes I do know how long, I still have Karina hidden away somewhere but best not talk about that!
Only thing is I'm going to have to avoid turning her into either Anita or Rashel...possibly not easy since she has a bit of a basis in both...Of course the other thing to avoid like the plague is having her turn into the female version of Nickolai...not too much danger of that I suppose, she has a small problem with the Garou for starters and if I'm taking it out of WoD then there's none of the random politics for her to ignore (Not of course that there's anything wrong with Nickolai I hasten to add, except excessive smugness and the fact that Kelly is my character and I'd like her to stay that way.)
The fact that she is so different personality wise from Jenna will give me a break and might spark random inspirations, you never know. Besides which it will be fun figuring out a vamp society to play with. I think this is one of the walls I keep hitting with GiC, it's set pretty much real world so I can't go playing with all sorts of high fantasy and courtly stuff...or at least not in the general setting; I'm not sure what's going to be happening in the flashbacks...now there's a thought...see, inspiration. This is why I can't work on one thing at a time!
