So I ended up going to the
yuletide chat last night for the pinch hitting to see if there was anything I could do. Up until the end, I was almost convinced that I was going to walk away without another story.
It figures that the second to last one was in a fandom I could handle...and I didn't want anyone not to have a story. Especially not at the holidays. That's not right.
Luckily, that story seems to be writing itself - I love it when that happens - and it's pretty easy to write. It's from a movie fandom and the great thing about that is there is only limited canon, characterization to live up to...much easier to navigate, at least for me. So wish me luck.
Also, working on
charmedsanta project at the moment. I see that others have started posting! I noticed the wubulous
dragonsinger had me! Squee and excitement. I haven't looked yet because I won't let myself until I finish my gift. But I can't wait.
So must finish mine. And I must ask...anyone out there going to be available for a quick beta? I promise that I don't have any of you on my friendslist so you won't be editing your own gifts.
And I think that pretty much gives away the gift. Though it's not really surprising. I'm graphically-challenged, but I think I write some pretty decent Charmed stuff. So hopefully my recipient will enjoy it.

I think I'm finally getting to see the new
Blade movie tonight. Woo-hoo. Ryan Reynolds is teh hot! Plus, lame as it sounds, I
love those movies. They're campy and funny and action-packed. I love it. Plus, I have that weird obsession with vampires and all things that involve vampires.
My mother refers to it as "part of your weirdness." Maybe she's right. heh.

Not much else to report for my day today has consisted of sleeping, shopping with the mother, and writing. Oh, I live a wild life here in miserable, rainy New Jersey, don't I?
Ciao.
